I can't thank you enough for posting this link Cedric. Not sure if the Skyfall forum is the place for it or not but what a great watch.
Call me an emotional sap, but wow, when they talked about Connery and Cubby having that phone conversation when Cubby was on his death bed, I will confess to getting a little blurry eyed -and we'll leave it at that.
At first i thought it was a documentary just about skyfall, that's why i posted it here. My bad. But there is the title sequence and a behind the scenes video of the music for skyfall so i suppose it belongs here. Glad you liked it, i think it's a great documentary aswell.

I had the exact same reaction. Never knew that even happened, since Connery's continued absence from all things Bond-related would lead me to believe the feud is continuing. I kind of felt for Broccoli who seemed to be a very sensitive guy who couldn't understand why his partnerships with Connery and Saltzman ended so badly.
Never knew about how Lazenby basically duped everyone into getting the part either. It reminded me of that movie "Catch Me If You Can", only Lazenby was pretending to be an actor!
Highly recommend this. The interviews are great. Connery's is notable by his absence, but the other Bonds are all present. Lazenby still seems bewildered. Moore graceful and funny. Dalton theatrical and slightly hammy. Brosnan the most interesting, talking about how it affected his life from 81 when his late wife appeared in FYE, through to the TLD fiasco, and his eventual casting. He's brutally honest about how his tenure ended and rips the p### out of DAD. Well worth seeking out.
I watched this last night on EpixHD and truly enjoyed it. Very enlightening...Excellent documentary IMO!
I especially liked the "Jimmy Bond" segment... )

You can pre-order this one on amazon.co.uk now for later on in January 2013 - looks intriguing!

Over the past few months I was stressing over how I can get this DVD in the US and I was pleasantly surprised to learn that if you are an Amazon Prime member, Everything or Nothing can be viewed for free! Guess what I watched over the weekend?

Yes in the UK Amazon reduced the price down from £15 to £10.
Have now got a copy on Thursday and watched it in the evening. 93mins.
It's excellent with comments from 5 out of 6 Bond actors and in the background, Bond music from various films plays, so it has the musical feel of a Bond film.
I saw it when it was on for one night only at Odeon, Bath Oct.9th and this was before Skyfall came out,
so there was unknown images towards the end, like a silhoutted fight, which of course were extracts from the new film before it came out!

So it turns out that the biggest bond villain of all is...... Kevin Mcclory

I think you might be a bit too late. It was there.
