    exactly Loeffelholz, and i'm sure Craig could do it, hes done such a splendid job so far, its almost fate. he definetly has one of the best bond portrails ever done for the movies. really looking forward to a more laid back bond 23. {[]

    I had a good think about this and the following was my conclusion:

    I can't make it add up to 100, it has to add up to 200 and then be worked by a percentage.

    Scoring a mximum of 10 points a piece:
    BOND PERFORMANCE
    BOND GIRL
    VILLIAN
    VILLIANESS
    HENCHMAN
    MAIN SUPPORTING CHARACTER - MALE
    MAIN SUPPORTING CHARACTER - FEMALE
    SUPPORTING CAST
    DIRECTION
    SCREENPLAY & STORY
    PHOTOGRAPHY
    PRODUCTION DESIGN
    MUSIC
    EDITING
    SPECIAL EFFECTS

    Scoring a maximum of 5 points:
    M & Q & M.I.6 CAST
    SONG
    TITLE DESIGN
    COSTUMES
    LOCATIONS
    P.T.S.
    FIGHTS
    CHASES
    STUNTS
    GADGETS

    Each section can be rated, the total added, divided by the total of available points, and then worked out as a percentage.

    Of course some elements may be missing from some films (e.g TMWTGG has a supporting female character Andrea Anders, but no villainess - although you could reverse the role; equally there isn't really a henchman in QOS) and the relevant number of points would then be deducted from the % calculation.

    I'm so intrigued with this rating system, I'm tempted to give it a shot myself and see if the % points I end up with actually reflect how I rank the movies.
