    OK, well the fact(?) that there may be 31 movies and then quitting
    is one thing, but.... can you at least admit that the way you
    stated it ("these are the movies I've seen so far...") isn't
    correct?

    In other words, you have *NOT* seen all the movies that you listed
    in your original post.

    Too bad Lazenby didn't see a future in the Bond franchise. He had real martia l arts skills, plus he was only 30, as opposed to the older Connery and Moore

    I haven't yet. But there's a plan for 31 movies total then they're
    quitting
    James Bond.

    Two comments.

    First one is that James Bond died for me when
    Brosnan gave the role up. It is not that Craig
    did a bad job, but the films he starred were not
    very good imo.

    Second one is that franchies only die when they
    stop making money... if the last film they make
    generates a lot, they will ditch their plans and
    make yet another dozen. I have already heard
    lots of music band / games /whatever cancells
    that were postponed because of $$$$$$.

    You know, I keep hearing that the film he starred
    was among the best, but it starred one of the
    worst Bonds :-)

    Anyway, they say he was a difficult person to
    work with in the set. Much like this guy who
    played Iron Man's sidekick in the first film and
    got replaced.

    The fall of the iron curtain also killed off the franchise. When I think of p ost cold war spies, I think of the movie Ronin.

    I heard somewhere that the producr of the Bond films worried that Lazenby was gay because he was a male model, so he would hire prostitutes to test him when
    he was at the clubs. He later commented he was getting so much action, he should've auditioned for the job much sooner.

    I was so glad he got the role. Rumor had it that he wanted it back in the
    80s but couldn't get out of a TV contract. He was patient.

    Whatever happened to Remington Steele? :)

    Ronin is an excellent film. Main character is played by Robert DeNiro. Story deals with former intelligence operatives recruited for private sector work in a time when nations no longer need as many operatives with their skill sets.

    Nightfox

    Remember this was the 1960's and that was probably the stereotype that male models and other well groomed, well dressed men who appear self absorbed
    were playing on a different team.

    I don't think anybody is implying anything, other than stating a fact.
    Several actors made their way into acting through modeling or being a poster boy/ girl, however Broccoli was very protective of the Bond franchise.

    Loved that one...especially the theme. I think Paul McCartney And

    Christopher Lee was a relative of Ian Fleming, and was Fleming's forst choice to play Bond. Later in his career Lee stated he was part of the SOE during WW II, so he would've been a perfect match for the role.
