Favorite Bond Movie: The Man With The Golden Gun

I am a fan of the more outlandish Bond movie premises. I want supervillains who have bizarre sidekicks and who could never be considered for the villain role in a film like The Bourne Identity. And The Man With The Golden Gun delivered on all of those fronts. The film gives us a very comic bookish villain in Francisco Scaramunga, an assassin who uses a gold gun that fires gold bullets as his calling card; a device that can harness the power of the sun, a secret island hideout with its own funhouse, a killer dwarf as a villainous sidekick…just an all around fun time.


Favorite Bond song: A View to a Kill. The only good thing to ever come from Paul McCartney’s time with Wings.
Uh, Derek, I hate to tell you this but Duran Duran sang A View to a Kill. Paul McCartney and Wings did Live and Let Die.

Good catch! I’d written an earlier draft that had A View To A Kill as my song choice then switched to Live and Let Die but I must have had a brain fart and forgot to edit when I copied it over from Word.
Thanks!
