Hi All -

As a Bond enthusiast (I have seen all the movies numerous times, read the books and memorized more than I would like to admit) I must say that the decisions that the new generations of Bond directors and producers has directly taken away from all that made a good Bond flick. Gadgets, one liners, and babes are all being overlooked for a darker reality based Bond, and even though I think Daniel Craig is excellent for the role I miss the nuances that made the Connery flicks so Iconic.

Omega paid their way to get the screen time but nothing beats the old Rolly on 007's wrist. Let's hope that they realize that there is still a huge following of Bond lovers who grew up on the films that would like to see some of the old iconic features of a Bond put back into the new genre of Bond movies.

Do you expect me to talk.....No Mr.Bond...I expect you to die!

Cheers all!
