If the Bond films were to get the "Lucas" treatment

Note - I DO NOT support the idea of altering classic films in anyway, this is just for discussion.
Seeing how Lucas has made some changes to his classic SW trilogy, what changes would you make or suggest if the same were to be planned for the classic 007 Films?

As for your question, could you clarify it a bit? Do you mean if the films were remade, or if some new film was made as a prequel, like 'the phantom menace' was?

One of the few things I might like to see improved upon is the back screen projection in the earlier films (up and untill AVTAK). I can imagine this wasn't a really big problem in the 60's, 70's and 80's but on viewing the films now this really stands out. Otherwise I wouldn't change too much because the films are good enough by themselves.
Correct.
One change i would make is if possible to rescore Doctor No to have more of a Barry like soundtrack and less of the over dramatic music.
Good God NO !.
The themes song to NSNA actually isnt so bad, but i do agree the score kinda sucks.

Sorry.
Jedi just see someone doing Star Wars puns? Yoda thought that Star Wars puns would be frowned upon, Wan would be bad enough but this is getting outta hand.
But don't Fett, I'm sure it won't go on for long, we R2 not rock the sail barge too much, otherwise the mods will blasters all for badda behaviour.
See, an initial comment is cringey, 2 pushes it a bit, but to C3 p-ost's of Star Wars punnage really will make others hope that all us witty punners Vader into obscurity.

As for NSNA, there is the bootlegged special edition going around, rescored with mostly Barry but some Arnold music. It's okay, sort of watchable, but still not very good even then. You could turn somersaults trying to make that film work, and it still wouldn't.

Hell - maybe we could even have all the Bond films in a box set available with your Bond of choice.
The Daniel Craig edition - all 30 films with Daniel Craig

Using CGI to redesign / recompose set pieces, de-age actors, re score the themes, etc etc. These tricks are all used together to desperately polish a turd.
When I saw the tidied up original Star Wars, I thought it was mildly clever. (Except the CGI Jabba, and erasing Sebastian Shaw.) It was unnecessary, but fun. Little did I realise it was the beginning of a production mess. Each of the Bond films have become part of the classic catalogue. A reflection of their time, warts and all. New films, with new ideas fair enough. Sometimes it leads to Goldeneye, or Casino Royale-06. Sometimes though QoS! The digital clean up was done to preserve the films, and no doubt new details will be crip and clear on Blueray. That is more than enough.
In other words? Not on your Obi Wan, its Bond's Only Hope. We must crush this CGI Rebellion with one swift stroke!
They CGI'd out the camera crew visible in the mirror in the Ultimate TMWTGG!! I purposely own the SE instead.
The only, and I mean ONLY thing I would accept is changing the colour on his diving mask in TB from blue to black after he switches it. In fact, I would love that. But just the colour. :007)

" believe it or Not " most people don't even notice it.
Even the car on two wheels from DAF, same thing,I've yet to hear
a comment about "Didn't it go in on the other side ".
Although Others may be so intimidated by my Alpha Maleness to
even think of saying anything.
"Which way?"
