Bond. James Bond.

Encore is running a James Bond marathon today, and several of the films they're showing are on my to-get list. So far today I've added "Dr. No" and "Diamonds Are Forever" to my collection, and "Goldfinger" and "From Russia With Love" are coming up.

There's often a considerable gap between the time I acquire a movie and the time I actually get around to watching it, but I think I'm going to watch "Dr. No" pretty soon. One of the storylines on Irregular Webcomic is a parody of that movie, and I suspect I'll enjoy it more once I've seen the film.

Dr No is a good one. But then, it was the first, wasn't it - many of the later ones blur in my memory. From Russia was next and then Goldfinger - also two good ones. Enjoy!

Thanks. Yeah, "Dr. No" was the first, and the Maltin Guide says it was the most faithful to Fleming's original. (Actually, I think I read, or read part of, the book many years ago, but nothing much sticks in mind.)
