    I'm sure Eva Green's a good actress, but Vesper isn't one of my fave BGs. I prob like Stacey Sutton a bit more, even if Tanya Roberts was a poor actress. There's just something about Vesper I dislike.

    She (Vesper) does rank above Tiffany Case for me though.

    As for Madeleine Swann, I quite like her. She's duking it out with Camille for the title of fave Craig Era BG.

    I think we can all agree that James Bond is called James Bond, can't we? :))

    Anything other than this re James Bond, I'm not so sure... :D

    There are people who (wrongly) think that other people are called James Bond. But not many here, since most of the codename people aren't really Bond fans.

    That's what I was thinking about to be honest!
    I'm strongly and possibly violently against the Bond Codename theory.

    Does anyone here like it?

    I think we can all agree that Die Another Day is in the top 4 of all the Bond movies starring Pierce Brosnan.

    It's an OCD thing. I like to believe that the 'real' Bond lived in the sixties, yet an endless string of new 007's will keep me safe from satellite death rays in outer space for many happy years.

    Any my OCD prevents me from the believing in the codename theory because there's too much evidence against it.

    There are a lot of things we Bond fans will never totally agree on but it's the debates and different opinions that I find interesting. Having said that I do enjoy it when a fellow Bond fan has the same ideas and opinions that I have. -{

    I think we can all agree on the introduction of James Bond in DN as being one of the coolest moments in film history. -{

    No not met her just formed an impression from what I have seen and read. For the record in am in no position to comment on her character, just that I find her a bit annoying.

    If you've not met her then how can you have 'seen' how she is ? What have you read ? I've heard some (first hand) stories about her - remarkable woman -{

    He's not judging her, he's judging her public persona. I certainly find some people's public personas irritating.
