Let’s just go ahead and pretend that Madonna never turned the title credits for Die Another Day into a dancehall and admit that this song is much preferable and a better fit. Mitch Miller would have been a better fit than half-assed Madonna house music. But this… this is my George Lucas Director’s Edit had I been the director of Die Another Day instead of Lee Tamahori, except awesome.

Our first #Bond_age_Choice feature, courtesy of @GregMcCambley brought out all the 80’s feels including John Travolta, the Terminator, Burger King, leotards, Ally Sheedy, the Cold War, Tab and Dabney Coleman. Twas an epic evening of pre-apocalypse. The glorious meme-filled document of that evening follows.

The grueling 23-Bond tournament that began more than a year ago. Today a champion has been crowned. Votes have been tallied, facts have been checked, Price Waterhouse Cooper has been carrying around a shackled briefcase for a week. I’ve had a great time running this tournament and discussing all the matchups in great detail. The final matchup between #FRWL and #OHMSS even pitted my two favorite Bonds against each other. Along the way there were some upsets (#LTK over #Goldfinger), some near misses (#Moonraker almost overtaking #GoldenEye) and a few massive smackdowns (#OHMSS over #DAD, #FRWL over #LaLD) that made it all nail-biting drama.
Will it be the upstart #10-seed ON HER MAJESTY’S SECRET SERVICE? Or will it the #4-seed FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE?
Without any further adieu… envelope, please.
And the winner is….

Wednesday at 9pm EST, #Bond_age_ begins a new series of live tweets called #Bond_age_Choice. #Bond_age_ fans pick their own movie to host and discuss. (Ideally, we’ll all get to read a short write-up about why said movie was chosen as well — but I realize that sometimes life and obligations get in the way of writing for free on the Internet!) We’ll start with one #Bond_age_Choice program per month and see where it takes us. My initial parameters suggested a cursory relationship to the spy genre, but I won’t put up any cinematic barriers or pre-conditions. Our first edition of #Bond_age_Choice comes to us from @GregMcCambley.
Join us on Wednesday for the #Bond_age_ Live Tweet of WarGames starring Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy. Follow hashtag #WarGames83.
