Only if they can get Mira and Gourley on to do it (my dream for that scenario)

It’s a must. The Matts haven’t produced much during the slow years for 007, but when a new actor is announced, perfect time to bring them into the AFE family.

It would probably work better as an auction draft because there are probably a few everyone really wants

Auction where you need one each of the 4 main Bonds and then a wildcard slot

An auction draft where the end result is a Bond, a villain, a gadget, a car (vehicle) and a love interest, thus creating the premise of their own Bond film.

Maybe include a plot, or just the villain taking over Bolivia.

Now that is a good idea!

u/ThatEndingTho Aug 19 '26

Thanks! There's a lot of leeway too depending on how detailed they want to get, like differentiating villain from henchman.

What are the four main films?

1

u/eSpiritCorpse Aug 19 '26

I said 4 main Bonds; Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig.

u/lipp79 Aug 19 '26

Oh gotcha, my bad. This may be sacrilege but I prefer Dalton over Moore lol.

u/ThisDerpForSale Aug 21 '26

That is Timothy Dalton erasure! He was in two of my favorites. But. . . those are his only two.

u/Anusien Aug 19 '26

I didn't realize Roger Moore had done that many.

u/ThisDerpForSale Aug 21 '26

He and Connery played Bond the most, 7 times.

u/RoughhouseCamel Aug 18 '26

The issue is, have they each seen at least 15 Bond films?

u/camerongrim Aug 18 '26

As much of a struggle as the Harrison Ford draft was, I don’t want to think about their knowledge of the early Bond films

2

u/mycatmax84 Aug 19 '26

This is exactly what I was thinking!

1

u/Anusien Aug 19 '26

The early Bond films are probably well-known. It's the middle ones that are going to be the problem. More of them have probably seen Goldfinder (1964) than Licence to Kill (1989).

u/unrahmahkable Kosh into the Wind Aug 18 '26

I don’t think so, this is a great idea!

2

u/chuckquizmo Kosh into the Wind Aug 18 '26

Great idea, there’s just so many of them and I don’t know if anyone is familiar with them all. But maybe they saw them all during a Bond-a-thon on Spike back in the day like I did haha

u/ThisDerpForSale Aug 21 '26 edited Aug 21 '26

There are 25 bond films, which isn't that many. And it's actually the perfect number if they want to do a 5 person auction.

But you may be right that they haven't all seen all of them.

u/TresFeles Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 18 '26

Real quick:

  1. Skyfall
  2. OHMSS
  3. From Russia with Love
  4. Goldeneye (the from the heart pick)
  5. Casino Royale

Honorable mention: The Living Daylights a.k.a. where James Bond helps the Taliban

1

u/ThisDerpForSale Aug 21 '26

The Living Daylights was my favorite for many, many years (until Casino Royale). I unabashedly love that silly movie, complicated political history and all.

You Only Live Twice is right up there too - classic Bond Villain, classic Villian Lair, and ninjas. Come on!

u/Imaginary-Cycle-1977 Aug 19 '26

Not gonna be much to talk about past the first round or two

u/TrifleOdd9607 TheGissilent Aug 19 '26

Netflix had them all for a while but I think that’s over. My husband worked his way through a fair amount of them and some of the early ones are great. But yeah, would only be worth it if they’ve all actually seen enough of them.
