Boy, did I had a crush on Sheena Easton! And Brooke Shields... But who would blame me...?!
Both were brunettes what more to say....

Always figured the Niven '67 version was the definitive.

My first Bond was Dr. No, when aired here. My parents and I saw a bit, since they already knew the films and character,but also said that was what that cartoon was based. Now, what cartoon, I can not remember, possible some cartoon spoof of James Bond or secret agent.

I think that was one Hanna-Barbera, but can not remember. At the time, noting was similar so, didn't care much.

Many years later, our first prive broadcasting channel, possible do to Pierce Brosnan's first Bond, aired all the Bond films until that date, Sunday afternoon(during several weeks, one filme per sunday) and I watch them all.

Funny, the one that is consider the worst and he gets married, as scenes shot in Portugal...
Also, I kind dig Timothy Dalton films. Liked the first and understand that the last one was more a revenge story, from characters that we already knew.

Still my fav with Roger Moore.



The only one where the producers had to pay protection money for cast and crew.

Pierce Brosnan was my favorite!
I knew he'd be James Bond just from Remington Steele.

Didn't he step down when his Wife passed away?
