    CBn’s Member Survey: The Best Bond Bits

    During July 2006, CBn ran an online survey to establish what its forum members consider to be the “Best of Bond”; moments that typify Bond for them, or perhaps moments personal to them and standing out in their memories.

    With over 6,000 forum members and the books, the films, the videogames to choose from, the potential for a rich and varied selection was evident.

    And so it proved!

    And the survey went beyond even CBn’s expectations as forum members proved themselves—yet again—discerning, witty, considerate and thoughtful in explaining why they had chosen as they did.

    For example, which scenes are being described here?

    “If they wanted to make a statement about the glory days being back, it’s hard to think of anything more they could have done other than… no, it IS hard to think of anything more they could have done. All your Terminators and Lethal Weapons and Die Hards never did this, and that’s because only Bond could. And he sees them all off within seconds of the film starting. The guv’nor’s back. Fantastic.”

    or…

    “Incredible stuntwork; film after film they come up with something amazing. This is one of the best, probably the best.”

    or even…

    “Everything they knew about making James Bond films went into this chase and it shows.”
