The Name Is Bond, James Bond by crixlight2(m): 6:39am On May 01, 2015
The James Bond series focuses on a fictional British Secret Service agent created in 1953 by writer Ian Fleming, who featured him in twelve novels and two short-story collections. Since Fleming's death in 1964, seven other authors have written authorised Bond novels or novelizations: Kingsley Amis, Christopher Wood, John Gardner, Raymond Benson, Sebastian Faulks, Jeffery Deaver and William Boyd, with a further instalment due in September 2015 by Anthony Horowitz. Additionally Charlie Higson wrote a series on a young James Bond, and Kate Westbrook wrote three novels based on the diaries of a recurring series character, Moneypenny.

The character has also been adapted for television, radio, comic strip, video games and film. The films are the longest continually running and the third-highest grossing film series to date, which started in 1962 with Dr. No, starring Sean Connery as Bond. As of 2015, there have been twenty-three films in the Eon Productions series. The most recent Bond film, Skyfall (2012), stars Daniel Craig in his third portrayal of Bond; he is the sixth actor to play Bond in the Eon series. There have also been two independent productions of Bond films: Casino Royale (a 1967 spoof) and Never Say Never Again (a 1983 remake of an earlier Eon-produced film, Thunderball).

The Bond films are renowned for a number of features, including the musical accompaniment, with the theme songs having received Academy Award nominations on several occasions, and one win. Other important elements which run through most of the films include Bond's cars, his guns, and the gadgets with which he is supplied by Q Branch. Portrayed by

Re: The Name Is Bond, James Bond by Kaycee7(m): 3:00pm On May 02, 2015
The success of the Bond movie series has always been mainly due to their ability to flow with the current movie style.
- Connery pulled off the suave funny gentleman of the 60's.
- Moore gave a good performance in the futuristic 70's and 80's.
- Brosnan left an unforgettable imprint with his performance in the romantic 90's.
- Craig is pulling off the mountainous task of being the complete man. Tough, funny, intelligent and of course good with the ladies while staying seriously close to reality. And, believe it or not, he's doing a good job.

P.S. If Die Another Day or Moonraker was released in 2010 onwards, it would most likely flop. Not due to the actors but bcoz its not in tune with the current movie style.

^^^ So true. I rewatched Goldeneye some weeks ago, and while it was still nice, I really had problems reconciling it in my head as the same Pierce Brosnan hit that I so loved years ago.
