James Bond

I remember some scenes being filmed in Lulworth Cove

The only James Bond film that I can remember that had a tarantula in it was 'Dr. No'.

The PPK is readily concealable for a spy or plainclothes agent, which cannot be said of the M-l9ll war horse though it is.l It is difficult to cock a .45 ACP anyhow and almost impossible from a concealed position,. It is not recommended to carry the arm cocked and locked ( with the rear safety catch on) as a measurable jolt could accidentally fire the pistol. The M-l9ll is too big for concealed carry.

If you count the very first "non-canonical" made-for-TV version of Casino Royale, then that would be the shortest James Bond film at 54 minutes.

Of the official, canonical movies, Quantum of Solace is the shortest, at 107 minutes.

well some people think by magic but the real reason was that a volcano erupted but died out then it floated up to the surface but upside down , so now if you visit under there you will find mermaid's !

Duran Duran did the song A VIEW TO A KILL. Considered as their last hit around that time since shortly afterwards or around that time they all split up. Andy Taylor and John Taylor worked with Tony Thompson and Robert Palmer to form Power Station while Simon LeBon, Nick Rhodes, and Roger Taylor went to form Arcadia. (too much info :-s)

The first official feature James Bond film by Eon Productions was 1962's Dr. No. However, Casino Royale had originally been loosely adapted as a television film in 1954 on Climax!.

The 2002 James Bond film Die Another Day was filmed at Pinewood Studios, England, the Eden Project, Cadiz, Spain, Jökulsárlón, Iceland, Svalbard, Norway, and Maui, Hawaii, with these locations standing in for North and South Korea, Hong Kong, and Havana.

James Bond died on February 14, 1989 at the age of 89.

The youngest age anyone has played as James Bond is thirty years old (George Lazenby). The oldest anyone has played as James Bond is forty-five years old (Roger Moore). This means that the average age for James Bond is thirty-seven-and-a-half years old.

A number of factors lead to Dalton's abandoning the role. First of all, Moonraker had been so expensive that the budget for subsequent Bond films was cut with every new production. Licence to Kill had the lowest budget for a Bond film since the late 1960s/early 1970s, even after you adjust for inflation. Licence to Kill also had the lowest box office returns of a Bond film since the early 1960s. MGM was hesitant to greenlight a third project with Timothy Dalton, and were willing to do so only by cutting the budget further from the $32,000,000 of Licence to Kill. Adding to the troubles was the fact that the new CEO of MGM apparently disliked Dalton and offered to give EON Productions the budget they wanted if they would replace Dalton; EON, however, refused this offer. At around the same time as EON was beginning pre-production on a third Dalton outing, MGM/UA was bought out by an Australian company, who illegally sold television rights of the Bond films to a French company. The following court case severely delayed production until late 1993/early 1994 at which point Timothy Dalton's contract with EON had expired. Even after his contract ran out, however, Dalton was still the Bond "of record", meaning he would be given the opportunity to play Bond first, and if he turned it down EON would seek a new actor to be contracted. Not long after his contract ran out, Dalton received the first draft of the script for GoldenEye and disliked it. During the long gap of legal wrangling, Dalton did several television appearances and theatre productions, as well. Basically, Timothy Dalton didn't like the script for GoldenEye and had already moved on to other work which he found more enjoyable.

He is the original author of the James Bond novels.

Roger Moore would have that distinction, having appeared in 7 official Bond movies.

Sean Connery has also appeared in 7 Bond films, but one of them is not in the official franchise, Never Say Never Again.

Roger Moore was the fourth actor to play James Bond in the Bond film series. He played the role in seven films over the course of almost ten years with his first film being 1973's "Live and Let Die" and 1985's "A View to Kill." Timothy Dalton would eventually take the role as James Bond in 1987.

"From Russia With Love" starring Sean Connery

The actor who has portrayed the character of James Bond the most times as of 2012 is Roger Moore, who played James Bond in seven (7) films from 1973 to 1985. Sean Connery has also played Bond seven (7) times, from 1962 to 1983. However, his last outing as Bond in Never Say Never Again (1983), is not considered canon, as it was not a Eon production.
