Ideal Bond 21 title: 'Handsome But Deadly"

Jojo Bond · Nov 25th, 2004, 07:44 AM

I think I may have come up with the perfect Bond 21 title -

'Handsome But Deadly'

Say it a few times aloud and it really works:

Handsome But Deadly
Handsome But Deadly
Handsome But Deadly
Handsome But Deadly
Handsome But Deadly

I could imagine a Fleming book called 'Handsome But Deadly'. It also perfectly sums up Bond's character. Handsome but deadly. Perfect.

Just keep saying it and it sounds like a Bond title. I think it could be a tremendous title. When you say it aloud it reminds me of classic Bond titles like Live And Let Die. Just has a similar sort of vibe.

its a great title.

How about this:

Don't Mess With Time

Hmmmm... that title doesn't seem to work with me. Oh well...

Seems a bit..... bland is the only word I can think of to describe it.

I've always liked Gardner's 'Icebreaker' / "scorpius' one word titles in the tradition of Goldfinger/Thunderball. I was surprised that 'Die Another Day' got through but that was leaps and bounds better than the earlier rumoured 'Beyond The Ice'.

Hows about.....Death Above Honour?

or more simply....

Everything Or Nothing (with a different plot and character then the video game, of course

)

That would be a good title, except when you mention the title of the movie, people (Bond fans most likely

) will say, "What, the production company or the title?" So that would leave a wee bit of a tangle.

Even though it was an alternate Bond title to TWINE, I think Death Waits For No Man would be good. Only problem, HOW THE HECK DO YOU MAKE A THEME SONG OUT OF THAT!?

Well, the title song doesn't necessarily have to have the same title as the movie. Look at Nobody Does it Better and All Time High.
