I would add that the female stars in that particular movie were some of my favorites ever. Every once in a while, however, I post some ideas on potential Bond movie plots over on my Twitter site, and it occurred to me this week that perhaps that practice ought to be moved over to this page because people may not enjoy reading them from bottom to top, upside down, as it were. Posts on this site read from top to bottom, on the other hand, a more traditional take on English prose.
I am just not sure that British royalty is ready to make that change yet, although Parliament may be heading in that same direction, who is to say at this point? All of my previous Bond plot ideas have started out with an interview of potential candidates, and this one is no different in that respect.
So in this movie M is played by a man whose primary languages are Urdu and Punjabi, with English as a distant third option. Into his office walks a candidate who professes to be British and plays himself with an English accent learned at British schools and universities but who is actually the scion of a family of Polish communists who moved over to London as KGB agents back in the s.
So M is wondering if this candidate is suitable for a new job he has received from the Foreign Secretary and begins quizzing him on the subject. So what follows is some training in chemical weapons, bioweapons, electronic weapons, and a trip to see Q to pick up the new Bond car, a Chinese knock-off of a Hyundai Genesis outfitted with two small cannons up front, smoke screen and tire spike options, and a guided missile system in the boot, the new Bond pistol, a Chinese knock-off of a Sig Sauer P Nitron X-Ray 9mm, and his new poisoning system concealed as an Apple iPhone Bond also meets his new partner, agent , a Chinese national named Yung Wang, skilled in the martial arts and bioweapons deployment, both of which could come in handy in Switzerland.
They decide to send the car and some of the new weapons by rail and take a flight down to Switzerland instead, and en route M has a chance to explain the new mission to So they head over to an air force base and board a helicopter headed for Meiringen Air Base in Switzerland.
