  • The 007Th Minute Ebook Edition
    “What a load of crap. Next time, mate, keep your drug tripping private.” JACQUES A person on Facebook. STEWART “What utter drivel” Another person on Facebook. “I may be in the minority here, but I find these editorial pieces to be completely unreadable garbage.” Guess where that one came from. “No, you’re not. Honestly, I think of this the same Bond thinks of his obituary by M.” Chap above’s made a chum. This might be what Facebook is for. That’s rather lovely. Isn’t the internet super? “I don’t get it either and I don’t have the guts to say it because I fear their rhetoric or they’d might just ignore me. After reading one of these I feel like I’ve walked in on a Specter round table meeting of which I do not belong. I suppose I’m less a Bond fan because I haven’t read all the novels. I just figured these were for the fans who’ve read all the novels including the continuation ones, fan’s of literary Bond instead of the films. They leave me wondering if I can even read or if I even have a grasp of the language itself.” No comment. This ebook is not for sale but only available as a free download at Commanderbond.net.

  • A Queer Analysis of the James Bond Canon
    MALE BONDING: A QUEER ANALYSIS OF THE JAMES BOND CANON by Grant C. Hester A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, FL May 2019 Copyright 2019 by Grant C. Hester ii MALE BONDING: A QUEER ANALYSIS OF THE JAMES BOND CANON by Grant C. Hester This dissertation was prepared under the direction of the candidate's dissertation advisor, Dr. Jane Caputi, Center for Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Communication, and Multimedia and has been approved by the members of his supervisory committee. It was submitted to the faculty of the Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters and was accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Khaled Sobhan, Ph.D. Interim Dean, Graduate College iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Jane Caputi for guiding me through this process. She was truly there from this paper’s incubation as it was in her Sex, Violence, and Hollywood class where the idea that James Bond could be repressing his homosexuality first revealed itself to me. She encouraged the exploration and was an unbelievable sounding board every step to fruition. Stephen Charbonneau has also been an invaluable resource. Frankly, he changed the way I look at film. His door has always been open and he has given honest feedback and good advice. Oliver Buckton possesses a knowledge of James Bond that is unparalleled. I marvel at how he retains such information.

  • James Bond 007 Analysis Codebook
    1 James Bond 007 Analysis Codebook Kimberly A. Neuendorf, Ph.D. Patrika Janstova Sharon Snyder-Suhy Vito Flitt School of Communication, Cleveland State University & Thomas D. Gore, M.A. School of Communication Studies, Kent State University REVISED September 29, 2010 Unit of Data Collection: Each female character depicted in each Bond film who speaks in the film to any other character, or who does not speak but is introduced by another character, or who does not speak but is shown and referred to by another character, or is shown in close-up (i.e., head shot or head and shoulders shot), or engages in any codable sexual behavior, or experiences codable physical harm. When judging whether the female character speaks or is referred to, the coder must be able to both hear the female character and see that character’s mouth moving as she speaks, or must hear her name when she is introduced or referred to. In addition, only females that appear to be over the age of 18 will be coded (no teenagers or children). Other Coding Instructions: Do not code the opening or closing credits. For all coding, use only the information available to you as a viewer (i.e., do not use information you might have as a fan of Bond films, a fan of a particular actor, etc.). Code a female character’s use of weapons/target of weapons only from the point at which she becomes a codable character. That is, if early in the film, a group of undifferentiated (and uncodable) females are carrying guns, and then later one of them becomes codable because she kisses Bond, do not go back and code her earlier gun-carrying behavior.

  • Themalijst: James Bond Openbare Bibliotheek Kortrijk Mei 2017 P
    Themalijst Shaken, not stirred Ian Fleming werd geboren in Londen, op 28 mei 1908, en was de jongere broer van reisverhalen- schrijver Peter Fleming. Hij werd opgeleid op Eton, en de Koninklijke Militaire Academie Sandhurst. Hierna vertrok hij naar het buitenland om talen te studeren. Hij werkte als journalist in de jaren voor de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Aan het begin van de oorlog werd hij aangenomen als persoonlijk assistent van de directeur van Naval Intelligence, admiraal John Henry Godfrey. Fleming raakte betrokken bij meerdere operaties. Een belangrijke hiervan was de door Fleming ontwikkelde Operation Goldeneye , die ervoor moest zorgen dat de Britten nog steeds via Gibraltar konden communiceren als Spanje zich eventueel bij de Asmogendheden zou aansluiten. In 1944 kreeg Fleming de leiding over de zogenaamde 30 Assault Unit, en later werd hij lid van het comité van de T-Force. Dit gaf hem de achtergrond en ervaring om goede spionageverhalen te schrijven. Er wordt zelfs beweerd dat sommige gebeurtenissen uit de Bondverhalen echt hebben plaatsgevonden en dat ook de figuur van James Bond gebaseerd is op een geheim agent die echt heeft bestaan. Geruchten dat het Bond-personage op Fleming zelf zou zijn gebaseerd, zijn door Fleming ontkend. Fleming, the man who would be bond (DVD, 2014) Film FLEM Vierdelige miniserie van Sky Atlantic en BBC America over het leven van Ian Fleming, bedenker van James Bond. Fleming (1908-1964) komt uit een welgestelde familie en leidt het leven van een playboy. In 1940 wordt hij aangenomen bij de Naval Intelligence, waar hij betrokken is bij diverse operaties en de inspiratie opdoet voor zijn latere James Bond-verhalen.

  • The Depiction of Scientists in the Bond Film Franchise Claire Hines
    The depiction of scientists in the Bond film franchise Claire Hines The James Bond film franchise began with the release of Dr No (Terence Young, 1962), a film of many notable firsts for the long-running and highly formulaic series. These important firsts include the introduction of Sean Connery as James Bond, the introduction of the criminal organisation SPECTRE and the first major Bond villain, the first of the Bond girls, and a number of key recurring characters. Even though some changes were made to the novel written by Ian Fleming (and published in 1958), the film nevertheless follows the same storyline, where Bond is sent by the British Secret Service to Jamaica and uncovers an evil plot headed by a scientific mastermind. As the first of the Bond films, it is particularly significant that Dr No has a scientist as the very first on-screen Bond villain. Played by Joseph Wiseman, Dr No was based on the literary character from Fleming’s novel, and clearly followed in the tradition of the mad scientist, but also became the prototype for the many Bond villains that followed in the film series (Chapman 2007: 66). According to the stories that circulate about the preparation of Dr No, however, this was almost not the case. In his autobiography Bond producer Albert Broccoli recalls that he and Harry Saltzman rejected an early draft of the screenplay in which the screenwriters had departed from the novel and made the villain a monkey (1998: 158). Broccoli was adamant that the script needed to be rewritten and that Fleming’s Bond villain should be restored to the screenplay (1998: 158).

    ‘You’re a kite dancing in a hurricane, Mr Bond’ The Elemental Encounters of James Bond LISA FUNNELL AND KLAUS DODDS What would it mean to describe James Bond as a man in his element?
