I worked on the VFX for two Bonds, Goldeneye and Tomorrow Never Dies.

I worked with a guy in China who had a Goldeneye crew jacket. Turns out he used to work for Phillips who supplied all the monitors for the control room and his job was to make sure they all got switched on at the start of filming then off again at the end of the day. And people wonder why it costs so much to make a film!

I once knew a geezer who was the cousin of a woman whose husband was the brother of a man who delivered milk to an old dear whose sister knew a friend of Shaun Connerys window cleaner.😋 

No substitute for Connery. It's like Heinz tomato sauce up against Lidls gloop!

Stoke tomato ketchup is well worth a try.

Craig has got to take it as the best portrayal of Bond. He is the most human, has believable flaws and therefore is the most relatable. Connery and Lasenby are too perfect and make too few mistakes. I also think I could take either one of them in a fight. I know that Craig would hand my arse to me on a plate.

bond isn't meant to be a believable character, he's meant to be a super badass hero who always takes out the over-the-top villain.

 

it's like saying Indiana jones would be more believable if he was played by tony robinson.....

Indiana Jones has a cunning plan, might have legs that.

i was meaning more a time-team reference, although tbh it could be kinda funny.

Craig is the epitome of a badass! I do think he benefits from being in better films to be fair; better M, better Q, better baddies etc. The coolest Bond moment ever is in Skyfall when he gives old Judy a lift in the Aston and you just get a little taste of the theme music as he opens the garage door, and then she moans about the ride being uncomfortable and he glances at the gear stick 🤣.

As my last post here was a flop I'll try again. Going by the prices listed the normal 60% figure would be just over £110

At least no problems with asking if the magazine is gas tight. 😁

Really it's £365 as he won't do face to face sales

I know there are restrictions in place but I wouldn't touch any sales post that stated post only.

I came here to post this! Although the mags (can sometimes) are tough to get hold of.

Union's ain't it. More prominent in the US, but I've talked to camera guys who I've worked with who supply their own kit, but had to get a spark to literally plug it into the wall and turn it on.

This is where packages/bundles don't work unless you're throwing the extras in dirt cheap. Who wants or needs 8 x 500 round magazines!? So it's laughable to say these cost me £120, give me a bit less than that and they're yours!

8 mids i can understand, but 8 hicaps?

 

only reason i can see that working is if there is literally no other magazine type available.

At one point I had 9 high caps for my AK. I didn't carry them all in game though, they were spares incase of breakages and between games it meant I could just replace empty mags with full ones
