THE Bond Movie that blew you away in the theatre as a kid-?

Skyfall. Its why I'm a Bond fan today.


If I had seen Casino Royale when it came out instead of 6 years later, I would have been a Bond fan back in 2006.

My first Bond film that I saw in the cinema was GE. I had been a fan since 1992, so it was not the first Bond movie that made a huge impact.

uh, really.
I welcome the fact of a german bondgirl, but i never fancied her at all.
I don't understand what people find in her.

And that does not happen very often with bond girls

btt: TSWLM!
I went there on my 13th birthday with my then girlfriend Ulla.
She was like her name sounded - long blonde hair - blue eyes and very pretty.

Though I could not fully focus on the movie, I remember that also the film blew me away.
I've seen only DAF before and found and am still finding it boring

I won't tell you what I've done with Ulla after the screening though

I'm with you on that one. I think she's one of the least attractive Bond Girls.

DAD was amazing!! But then, I was only eight years old!

My mother took me to see it with my best buddy who was a big Bond geek like me. All the ggadgets were mind-blowing!

always shaken

Skyfall , as I mentioned lots of times before ( yes we know always shaken get on with it yawn)
the scene where Bond has his Aston stashed, used to be my dads factory, in deepest down town Deptford, it bought a massive smile to our faces (dad and I ) when it appeared on the big screen

Dunno where the film makers like us to think where it is,
but car turns into New cross road, then drives past Canary wharf ,
on its way to Scotland so one would assume that they wanted us to think
its in a certain part of London other wise Bond could have driven the Jag to
lets say Wembley ,used stadium as back drop then continued to Scotland
from there ? but as Bond is supposed to be living in the Kings road area
you would have thought you would have the car stashed nearer home
but then we wouldn't have anything to discuss ,but good point though

I saw the first 5 films when they were re-released in the USA as double-features in the summer of 1970 and the summer of 1971, building up to the release of the 7th film. I was just the right age, and they all blew me away. I saw the 6th film -- OHMSS -- in the late summer of 1972 when it was re-released with Diamonds on its second run, and it -- I mean OHMSS blew me away even more than the originating films. It seemed as if they had taken Bond to a more sophisticated level.

Diamonds never impressed me as much, however.
