Live and Let Die #Bond_age_ Collection DVD Cover

I borrowed the skull image from the Baron Samedi Swatch. See the full item here at www.007collector.com. With a little bit of tweaking, it became the perfect centerpiece for the Live and Let Die #Bond_age_ Collection DVD Cover. The tarot card on the back, of course, is the card used by Bond to fool Solitaire into breaking her indentured servitude (good psychic-in-residence gigs are hard to come by) to Kananga/Mr. Big.

James Bond Limericks: Twitter phenomenon

You asked for James Bond Limericks? No? Well, you’ll wish you had.

An offhand Twitter comment about James Bond Limericks led to a flurry of Limericking among #Bond_age_ fans today. Below you will find the (ongoing) fruits of our labors.

James Bond Limericks - The Living Daylights

@GregMcCambley

In the Living Daylights
we see an actor named Timothy.
He became Bond.
The public they yawned
and he left after two films, not three.

Bond Limericks - Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd from Diamonds are Forever

@GregMcCambley

Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd
Killing was all they did.
They went after Bond
but both got pwned.
One died by a flipped lid.

Bond Limericks - Man with the Golden Gun

@echidnabot

There once was a dude called Chris Lee
Who numbered his mammaries three
Maud Adams was thrilled
After each man he killed.
Between deaths Nick Nack called out “Me!”

Bond Limericks - Telly Savalas in On Her Majesty's Secret Service

@p2wy

There once was a villain named Blofeld
whose villa was flooded by snowmelt
His dungeon was drenched
his henchmen wouldn’t flench
despite his best “Dr. No yell”

Bond Limericks - Roger Moore and Jane Seymour in Live and Let Die

@p2wy, @kimmiechem2 & @007hertzrumble

There once was a Bond named Moore
whose actions one might deplore.
He starred in seven movies
and saw so many boobies
that you might call him a whore.

Domino and Largo in Thunderball

 @kimmiechem2

Twas a gal named Domino
with face of lilywhite snow
vowed to avenge
François’s bitter end and so,
killed evil Largo

James Bond Limericks - Roger Moore and Grace Jones in AVTAK

@filmchild

There was a young man named Roger
who referred obliquely to his todger.
The girls they came.
The villains were tame.
And Grace Jones refused to be his lodger.

James Bond Limericks - From Russia with Love

@007hertzrumble

Bond adored a girl named Tanya
and said put this negligee on ya.
Then Red Grant boarded the train.
Their “romance” appeared in vain
until Red didn’t know his wine from Champagna.

James Bond Limericks - Moonraker

@p2wy

There once was henchman named Jaws,
who almost had Bond in his claws.
He saved Bond in orbit
and splashed down to earth with
a buxom young blonde in his paws.

James Bond Limericks - George Lazenby

@TRWilcox

There once was a man named Lazenby,
who entered the franchise quite brazenly.
He grappled brilliantly with Kojak,
but did the audience to Connery go back?
They left George standing there holding his Dazenby

Don’t miss Roger Moore’s debut with #Bond_age_. It’s the Live and Let Die Live Tweet!

Live and Let Die Live Tweet

After Connery took a dive in Diamonds are Forever where would the Bond franchise go in the wake of that terrible success? It had been financially lucrative but the nadir of the Bond franchise, devoid of style and substance. Enter Roger Moore, the bourbon swigging, cigar smoking Bond with an espresso machine he can’t even use properly. EON wanted to differentiate Roger Moore’s Bond from the Connery Bond. And boy howdy did they. Live and Let Die places Bond in a Blaxploitation film with a confused compass. How far (if at all) does Roger Moore’s debut stray from the Bond reservation? The film has become a punching bag for moral crusaders, but is the film as racist or as sexist as its critics claim?

Our Man Flint Live Tweet 8/21

#Bond_age_ falls off the wagon again with IMPOSTOR EDITION #3: the Our Man Flint Live Tweet!

Our Man Flint Live Tweet

There’s an IMPOSTOR in our midst. His name is Flint, Derek Flint. Arguably, the Derek Flint films were the pinnacle of the lucrative James Bond spoof/spinoff genre of the 1960’s. In fact, there was even a spoof/spinoff of Our Man Flint produced in Italy during the same year called Il vostro super agente Flit. Derek Flint’s legacy has even survived parallel to James Bond. The “Presidential Hotline” ringtone has appeared in Hudson Hawk and Austin Powers. And I would wager to guess that few people remember/recognize that the name “Hans Gruber” originally came from Our Man Flint. I guess all that’s left to say is Z.O.W.I.E.! Don’t miss Our Man Flint accompanied with good #Bond_age_ Wednesday, August 21st at 9pm EDT. Follow #OURMANFLINT hashtag. (I tried just #FLINT but apparently a lot more happens in #FLINT, Michigan than I anticipated.)

Diamonds Are Forever Remixed with Madonna

Diamonds Are Forever Remixed with Madonna

Strange how this #DAF Remix (and the #TSWLM Remix) makes it seem like a Madonna Bond song would be great, but when she does it, it’s terrible.

In an attempt to improve the atrocity that is “Diamonds Are Forever,” @theactualkeith recut the opening title sequence with Madonna’s “Material Girl.” The product turned out great. Almost as good as his Madonna recut of “The Spy Who Loved Me.” (vimeo.com/72414329). Judge for yourself. Here’s Diamonds Are Forever Remixed.

Diamonds Are Forever Live Tweet 8/14

Oh it’s that time again. It’s time to deny the existence of Bond’s dead wife. It’s time to dump ooze on Blofeld and call it “revenge.” It’s time to visit Circus Circus, you know, for fun. It’s time to use a 2-hour movie to set up a five-second joke about Jill St. John’s bum. It’s time for Bambi. It’s time for Thumper. It’s time for DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER Live Tweet. The first Diamonds Are Forever live tweet was a goddamn riot. I’m telling you now. DO. NOT. MISS. THIS. LIVE. TWEET. You’ve been warned. Join us Wednesday at 9pm EDT. Follow #DAF hashtag. And may Fleming have mercy on your followers.
