    Right it should work now I've changed the id of the poll. It's because it was still checking for the old Poll's cookie on your computer.

    Thanks for adding my Director's Poll, SiCo (sorry that I forgot to include Guy Hamilton when I suggested it!)
    Anyway, here's another Poll suggestion:

    Also, I know I suggested this before, but how about favourite decade for films: 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 0's.

    Hmm... a decade specific Bond girl poll? I LIKE IT! Of course hopefully, my Natalya will beat them all but some people are really into Elektra which is troubling since she is technically the main villain.

    I love Natalya, but I also like Elektra too.

    If we can vote for Bond girls who are technically villains, can I vote for Xenia? ;) I actually consider her to be the sexiest female character in all the Brosnan films.

    Well, Bond has had a history of bedding the villainess, and in Brosnan's case it looks like he's done that in every film (well, except Xenia, with whom he only fooled around with in the sauna).
    My vote, though, goes to Dr Christmas Jones, but I've been in love with Denise Richards ever since I saw Wild Things.

    I'd have to cast my vote here. I have at least three on the above list to choose from. Picking one is just so tough.

    The one Bond actress that I am in love with is Halle Berry, yet I can not bring myself to love Jinx in the same way that I usually love a Halle Berry character. This is probably mostly due to her short hair, but whatever the reason, Jinx IMO is a pretty unmemorable Bond girl, even though I absolutely adore the actress.

    Sico, is it possible to record the winners of all the previous polls?

    Well yes I have all the records for the majority of the polls. The plan is to use them in an archive, but if you want some results just let me know.

    Thanks, I was wondering as it might be interesting to have a look back at what the forum's thought on various topics are.

    When it's time to do the next poll, you (Si) said mine could go next and I have slightly revamped it to your favorite 1980s Theme Songs! Here are the contenders!

    For Your Eyes Only by Sheena Easton

    All Time High by Rita Coolidge

    Never Say Never Again by Lani Hall

    A View to a Kill by Duran Duran

    The Living Daylights by a-Ha

    Where Has Everybody Gone by the Pretenders

    If There Was a Man by the Pretenders

    Licence to Kill by Gladys Knight

    If You Asked Me To by Patti LaBelle
  • HardyboyHardyboy Posts: 5,882Chief of Staff
    You forgot the Pretenders' "If There Was A Man," heard over the end credits of TLD--one of my personal faves.
    Vox clamantis in deserto
  • JennyFlexFanJennyFlexFan Posts: 1,497MI6 Agent
    Is the limit 8 choices? I thought it was and I was going to put "If There Was a Man" which I also like but I didn't but I'll add it in now.
  • SiCoSiCo EnglandPosts: 1,371M
    There is no limit, but I don't like too many options so I will limit it to about 8 max.

    Since that's the case, may I recommend dropping the NSNA theme? That way all the songs will be "official" ones--and we won't have to see poor NSNA wallowing in the 0% range until the poll closes!

    I too do not think anyone will go for NSNA.

    EDIT: This poll is such a tough choice! So many great songs!
  • Agent WadeAgent Wade Ann ArborPosts: 321MI6 Agent
    I'll include my insistence on dropping the NSNA baloney. I hate it to no end.

    In another case where I'm in the minority, I am rather fond of the NSNA theme so I'd like to include it. However, Patti LaBelle's and both Pretender's themes appear in such small instances in the movie whereas NSNA is the prominent theme throughout and who knows? Maybe there's an NSNA minority. When I saw the latest Brosnan Bond girl poll I swore Jinx wouldn't get one vote but I was proven wrong.

    I'd recommend if one had to be dropped, Patti LaBelle's song since that's the one I like the least in all the choices.
