The character of Felix Leiter appears in almost every Bond movies. This is no
exaggeration. It would be easier to name films Felix hasn't appeared in.

But after he saw Connery's performance in DR. NO he gave the novel Bond in YOU

English). But no, Connery was not originally who Fleming envisioned as Bond.
I think Ernst Cuneo said something like Bond was in fact Ian Fleming. (I'm
talking about who original said that. Anyone could say that in retrospect.)

Much thanks to Darryl Bedford for putting this FAQ together. I for one really
enjoyed it. "Organization: Universal Exports" Heh, heh.

Although your reviews of all the movies were GREAT, better than any
critics' or professional reviewer's I've ever read, I thought you were a tad
conservative on the ratings you gave the movies. You talked disparagingly  about
"Diamonds are Forever" yet gave it a B-, You called "Live and Let Die" a
big-budget blaxploitation film (and rightly so), but gave it a C+, then you raved
about "License to Kill" but only gave it a B+. But anyway, anyone with enough
taste to realize "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" is one of the best of the
genre is ok in my book.

Congratulations on a job well done.

Anthony

p.s. "Moonraker" deserves a rating of triple-S ... for "Sux! Sux! SUX!"

It seems kind of awkward, but it is obvious Gardner tried to make it part of 
the series. Well, don't bother reading it. It wasn't too good a book.

Lord, yes.  Every time I read one of those books, I feel like Gardener has this
"Bond the connoisseur who also happens to be a secret agent in his free time"
attitude.  All I notice in the books is the fine quality of clothes that he 
wears, or the champagne that he drinks, or the food that he eats, etc. ad 
nauseum.  I have given up on Gardener.  I just read them to see what obscene
deus ex machina he pulls off this time.  What he does to the books is a crime.

Megavolt was Elmo Sputterspark, the class science nerd, who like
Darkwing (the class dweeb) got picked on by the class jock and his
stuck up girlfriend.

Elmo was in the lab not too long after school had let out for the
summer.  He was running on a carpeted treadmill that was attached
to a lightbulb and by running, was lighting up the bulb with the
static electricity he generated.  The jock came in, said he wasn't
excersizing hard enough and taped Elmo's hands to the treadmill and
turned it up full speed.  After two hours of this, two things 
happened -- Megavolt became mentally unstable (wouldn't you?) and
also gained the ability to store and discharge static electricity.

Macaques are Asian monkeys; I used to be a keeper aide for a troupe of
lion-tailed macaques. Basically, their technique was to have some of them
distract me while the rest snuck up on me and took what they wanted. Once
I was on a ladder cleaning browse (snacks) out of the upper-level baskets,
when they decided they wanted it. Two of them distracted me, while three
came up behind me, reached through the wire, and grabbed the bag of browse
and started pulling. I had the choice of letting go, or falling off the
ladder, so I let them have the bag. It was deliberate on their part, no
doubt about it.

Yeah, primates are clever. Once you combine that much brain with opposable
thumbs, the possibilities are staggering.

In fact, lemurs are highly sought after by Boy Scout troop leaders for
summer campouts, as there is nothing that will give a squad of Tenderfoots
the willies faster than a lemur or two up in a tree making eerie cries and
peering down at the campers with their glowing eyes.
