A promise is a promise
[edit; for a couple reasons I took the picture away, but go check out his website!]
A while ago I said I would get some night pictures of afterburners lit up, and I kinda never got it done - until now. This is a pretty sweet picture taken by a photographer that was contracted by the film company that is producing a documentary. They have some more awesome photos - not that are releasable at the moment, something about not being finished production... Anyhow, now to answer Chris' 007 questions.
First of all, everyone knows that Sean Connery was the best James Bond ever. Period. And no englishman will ever be able to change that. (now that I make such an absurdly grand generalisation watch as movie critics the world over tout Daniel Craig as the best Bond ever...damn you karma, damn you all to hell!!!)
As for the worst, I think we all know Tomothy Dalton should never have made that cut. Enough said.
The hottest bond girl? Holy crap man, all I can think about is the legions of scantily clad women lounging around a swimming pool in Octopussy - I have to pick a favourite? But seriously, if I was ever going to learn Danish it would be from Cecilie Thomsen. Look, you never specified whether their contribution to the empire had to have anything to do with the choice.
Cheesiest line eh? Everyone knows that the movies are FULL of them, and there are some really, really bad ones. "I'm invincible!" isn't really cheesy so much as it's annoying and makes me want to kill him before the damn pen ever will. But how about this one from A View to a Kill: "I love an early morning ride." to which Bond replies "I'm an early riser myself."
That guy always has the coolest gadgets, and I have to agree with Mike's comment about all of the early gadgets. While I dearly love anything Aston Martin in these films, my favourite Bond gadget has to be the 007 wrist watch. That thing has been able to do a lot of things over the years, and just think of the bedroom tables it has graced...
Lastly, is Daniel Craig going to steal the role? I'll let you know my opinion after I see Casino Royale. I heard a lot of nasty things about him (someone said he couldn't drive stick? that's gotta be just a nasty rumour, right?), but I've also heard that he's a pretty good actor so I reserve judgment since his patsy role in Tomb Raider was just that, and I never saw Layer Cake.
cheers,
Dave

What defines a Bond Girl? In Tomorrow Never Dies I would have said that Teri Hatcher would have been the "Bond Girl".
But if we're defining Bond Girls as any woman who stars in a James Bond flick who wears something halfway between revealing and pornstar-ish than ok, you can have your Danish sweetheart.
