Now that Skyfall the 23rd James Bond film by Eon Productions is due to be released on 1st November 2012, it is time to post a few articles (seven !?!) on OO7. Perhaps, Google has already taken note of my angst expressed earlier and will produce a Doodle for the release of Skyfall.
Hope so, but here are my 007 best trivia on Bond films.
Trivia 1: The year 2012, is the 50th Anniversary of James Bond films starting with Dr. No in October 1962.
Trivia 2: Skyfall is also the 25th James Bond movie of all time. Though Broccoli’s Eon Production has produced only 23 of them including Skyfall, there is the 1983 Thunderball remake Never Say Never Again and the 1967 (spoof) Casino Royale. 25 movies in 50 years. No wonder the James Bond series is the highest grosser worldwide after the Harry Potter movie series.
Trivia 3: To date, a total of 007 authors have penned the official James Bond novels. Ian Fleming, Kingsley Amis, Christopher Wood, John Gardner, Raymond Benson, Sebstian Faulks and Jeffery Deaver.
Trivia 4: A total of 7 actors have played OO7 in the James Bond movie series. In Eon Productions they are Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Bronan and Daniel Craig. To be rounded up with David Niven in the 1967 Casino Royale.
Trivia 5: Roger Moore has played James Bond on film the most number of times -7, officially. So too has Sean Connery if you include Never Say Never Again.
Trivia 6: In movies James Bond has been seen with 007 different handguns. Browning FN1910 (Dr. No), Walther P-38 (Goldfinger), Colt Detective Special and S&W Model 29 .44 Magnum (Live and Let Die), Walther P-5 (Octopussy and Never Say Never Again), the original Walther PPK and the Walther P-99 at present.
Trivia 7: I already have ideas about which 7 bests to write in this series on James Bond. Counting this one on the trivia as the first, the series is going to go best cars, best babes, best villains, best villain gadgets and best movies. I don’t yet have an idea for the 007th one.
