Default Build Your Own Bond Movie

With Skyfall coming out that means some of you will be owning a complete Bond Blu-ray Collection. If that is you congratulations!

So many movies, so many Bond Girls, Bond Villians, Bond Theme Songs and, well, Bonds.

Using these elements; Bond, Girl, Villain, Song. What would you use to Build Your Bond Movie?

Mine would be

Daniel Craig, Blowfeld, Paris Carver, Live and Let Die.

That movie would kick ass!

(for the sake of keeping it fun you just can't say Every bit of Casino Royale...thx)


EDIT BIG: I am sorry I should have been more clear. All of the answers are super awesome but I was talking about only using characters that already exist in the Bond universe, but if you want to do different, have at it but that was not my intent. The more I think about it....do what ever, I like seeing new villains.

Bond: Daniel Craig

Villain: An evil syndicate with Blofeld (played by Charles Grey) on top, Auric Goldfinger and Gustav Graves as corporate allies, Scaramanga as a permanent employee, and Jaws as the go-to henchman.

Girls: As possible motivation for the plot below, have Tracy di Vicenzo appear in a flashback. Then bring on Camille Montes as an ally and Xenia Onatopp as a villain to seduce.

Gadgets: an iPad, and a huge arsenal of guns that would make T2 look like the carebears.

Song: Adele's Skyfall. David Arnold for the music score. Include a theme song remix by Celldweller.

Plot: Follow the original story of Ian Fleming's You Only Live Twice, more closely than its respective movie, by having Bond train up as a ninja to infiltrate a castle and take vengeance on all these baddies. The second half of the movie can play out like The Raid.

Bond: Pierce Brosnan
(so he can finally have that 5th movie he wanted to do)

Main Girl: Wai Lin (Michelle Yeoh)
(she was originally supposed to be in Die Another Day, instead of Jinx)

Evil Girl: Fiona Volpe (Luciana Paluzzi)
(solely because she's one of the hottest women in the entire franchise)

Other Girl: Monica Bellucci
(Pierce always wanted to work with her and she oozes sex)

Main Villain: Tan-Sun Moon (Will Yun Lee)
(no genetic transformation, first Asian main villain in a Bond movie)

Villainous Ally: Kamal Khan (Louis Jordan)
(I like Jordan so much that I just want to see him in another Bond film)

Main Henchman: Donald "Red" Grant (Robert Shaw)
(who wouldn't want to see him again?)

Turncoat Henchman: Jaws (Richard Kiel)
(he's secretly undercover in Moon's organization in order to assist Bond)

Song: You Only Live Twice by Garbage
(Nancy Sinatra's version is terrific but I'd love to hear my favorite band take a crack at it)

Score: David Arnold
(with the Bond theme applied liberally throughout; suck it, haters!)

Moneypenny: Samantha Bond
(Bond ends up with her for real at the end)

Damian Falco: Michael Madsen
(Madsen is a badass and his character isn't a jerk this time)

Q: Desmond Llewelyn

M: Roger Moore

Robinson: Colin Salmon

Bill Tanner: Michael Kitchen

Jack Wade: Joe Don Baker

I don't own all the Bond films, just the Brosnan ones and the first two Craigs. I'm not a diehard fan, but it would be cool to see someone like Clive Owen in the role.

Total Recast

Bond: Clive Owen, or keep Daniel Craig

Felix Leiter: Tom Hardy

Villain: Sean Connery as an ex member of MI6 and Christopher Walken as an Ex CIA who have their own private army and start a war on terrorists much like Swordfish.

Song: something dark and sardonic with female vocals will feel like a eulogy

Plot: MI6 and the CIA are trying to stop this private army of course. Bond and Leiter of course end up following some leads that bring them to the heart of it. After witnessing first hand attacks of terrorism around them they both feel the other arguments pull. Felix more so. When they get the Villains cornered Bond feels he needs to complete the mission, while Felix flips and tries to reason with him then stop him. Bond ultimatley has to kill the three of them but the last scenes would be Bond resigning completeley and then some time later you see him rummaging through the wreckage and something he sees makes him smile and it fades to black.

That is one badass list of villains you've got there. I love them all, especially Xander Berkeley (one of my favorite actors).

Michael Bay should definitely direct that!

Sean Connery with Daniel Craig as his protégé.

Wai Lin as part of their support team & ***** Galore (need more be said?!?!) as the girls.

Villians - Ernst Stavro Blofeld with Trevelyan & Red Grant as his henchmen.

Songs - A View to a Kill - opening credits | Goldeneye closing credit with Live and Let Die thrown in midway through the movie for good measure.

Thunderball

Thanks, Kevin.

I seriously feel like he could be one of the best villains we've ever seen in the series. I think the Bond producers should really consider him. And as you and I both pointed out, Fassbender would be an excellent Bond after Craig.
