18.07.2009 James Bond & Riddick
James Bond movies - tonight’s edition
of From Russia With Love – are meant
for consumers – I’m an avid consumer
of James Bond movies
Always ready to hang on Sean Connery’s
lips, admire the heroine, weave a new
dream around the Bond framework, no
work or reading done
Tonight is filled with fun, Chronicles Of
Riddick* coming up, his voice, his mag-
nificent poise, everything conspires to
create the ultimate hero
I LOVE getting swept off my feet by
movie hero’s; sharing the aberrations
of 21st century consumer society…
* Vin Diesel in “Chronicles of Riddick” and
even more enchanting in “The Pacifier”.

I don't like James Bond. They made him a super hero, but he is just an agent, a human being. In my movies, secret agents are more realistic, I didn't want to portray them in the most glowing colours.
Seen On Screen
Never Say Never Again –
I love it when James Bond
blows up Fatima Blush with
his fountain pen, I want to
blow up everyone crossing
me in anything, such as the
lady in the black Golf chal-
lenging me in my white
monster today
I was cruising happily
when she tried to cut in
from the left, without batting
an eye-lid I kept on the tail of
the car in front of me, she fell
back, then attacked from the
right, trying to push me from
the road, I continued
Without slowing down, the same
adrenaline rush as when James
Bond killed and destroyed enemies
of good citizenry – I point my finger
at everyone while making explosive
noises, seeing a signature James
Bond girl when I look in the mirror
Oh, lovely imagination, to become
one of the characters I have seen
on screen, used to act out movies
at school, today I still do, and
I always will!

John Barry was my hero when I was about 13. His scores to the James Bond movies were the scores of my life back then.

Bond
Bond
His name is James Bond
A small golden fish
Swimming in my pond
Along lines he rises
Cruises on the grid
Has many disguises
Hides and stays hid
Bond
His name is James Bond
A small golden fish
Of which I am very fond!
He's truly ambitios
He's fierce and vicious
Bond - my pet Piraya
Swimming with the fishes.
I care about Bond and what happens to him. You cannot be connected with a character for this long and not have an interest. All the Bond films had their good points.

I am honored to be a Bond girl and be a part of the Bond legacy, To star in a video game with Connery, the original Bond, is incredible.

It's very easy to confuse Sean Connery with James Bond. Sometimes in the entertainment industry, people believe the cake is more real than the baker.

James Bond is quite serious about his drinks and clothing and cigarettes and food and all that sort of thing. There is nothing wry or amused about James Bond.

Moving Background
At least this nondescript time is lightened by a new craze
of mine: full-cream milk powder, a lifesaver, coffee tastes
like heaven, and real butter on everything, it means I eat
less meat, hope more animals will live because of this, at
present all I read is hurricane Sandy & work documents
Life would have been unbearable if it was not for a James
Bond movie series with scenes I love and hate, the TV is
left on, volume turned down to give a feeling of freedom
when seeing something interesting in passing, enjoying
007's adventures as a moving background to my life
The more recent movies lack the theme music and cool
humour of the first Sean Connery reels, the recent films
contain scenes too bland and boring to watch - perfect
as a fantastic screen saver when life starts wounding
down and nothing remarkable is happening

Bonds
The bond can be strong and unchangeable
It can make life worth living and bearable
But a bond not worth savaging is worth less
Than the mud on the bottom of a shoe from payless
Chosen bonds can make it through the worst storms
It far exceeds and surpasses the societies norms
Deviant one may say, but a worthless bond
It cheap and can sometimes be a con
The bond that is not even enough to withstand
The bond that can't even to begin to comprehend
It's not the bond someone can lay life
On, and you know when that bond is right
When all you see is the shinning lights

True Bollywood Love Story
He sees her in the temple
Immediately falls in love with her,
She has come with her mother
He waits for an opportunity to meet her.
He follows her, day in and day out
Everyday he waits outside her home,
She knew him as a local yob
Who did nothing but roam.
He manages to stop her one day
And expresses his love for her,
She was waiting for it all along
They start going out thereafter.
They break into song and dance
Whenever they feel like,
Sometimes in Australia, sometimes Switzerland
Sometimes in a car and sometimes in a bike.
Dressed always in designer costumes
Even though they can’t afford it,
Because it’s just a dream not reality
They can afford to totally enjoy it.
Meanwhile in the cinema hall-
People in theatre start to clap
When Hero starts dancing with Heroine,
Some go out of theatre to have a fag
Some get a snack in the canteen.
Then it’s time for the interval
When the toilets are fully clogged,
Some wait eagerly for the movie to restart
In the sea of humanity some get bogged.
Movie continues-
The movie becomes interesting in second half
As many thousands of movies before,
The girl’s parents don’t approve of her love
To win their hearts, hero has to work more.
The rest of the movie has plots and subplots
Where the girl’s parents put the Hero to test,
In every task he emerges a winner
In fights, dance, emotions he proves to be the best.
The hero prevails against all the odds
Which only Indians can understand,
His in laws are forced to give in
The movie comes to a happy end.

His Word Is Not His Bond
(girls let me tell you what a liar will do
Hes always coming with something new
Hell steal your heart...)
He lives in the waste
Void of culture and taste
His eye on a prize beyond
His every word is in the right place
But his word is not his bond
His face is comely
His heart it bleeds
Yet its but a mantel
He has donned
Mark him only by his deeds
For his word is not his bond
Id love to take him
Out of this room
And gently break him
Id love to see him dance!
His protogee deals
In confusion and fog
Of power he is fond
Wheels within wheels
Like master, like dog
His word is not his bond
Im trying to swim
But Im caught in the shallows
And I sense that Ive been conned
Deliver him
To the gallows
His word is not his bond
His word is not his bond!

Please, God! Choose Someone Else!
The bestest writer in the werld!
Terror tales sending footsies curled!
Or soppy stuff thats full of love,
Romantic dreams that proved enough...
Yeah, Id write stuff to make folks laugh,
A few tears for an epitaph
And sci-fi, too, for Star Truck fans,
Falls well with in my future plans!
Yeah, cloke and dagger stuffs OK,
With Bond, James Bond, to save the day!
The hero chases for a mile,
The villain giggles with a smile!
Wots that, Lord? Me, write poetry?
Forgive me, Lord, but thats potty!
No fame or fortune writing rimes
When heres a hero fighting crimes!
Oh, God! Please, God! Choose someone else!
My wallets sounding warning bells!
Im skint already, its not fair!
I want to be a millunaire!

Art-I-Ficial
I know I'm artificial
But don't put the blame on me
I was reared with appliances
In a consumer society
When I put on my make-up
The pretty little mask not me
That's the way a girl should be
In a consumer society
My existence is illusive
The kind that is supported
By mechanical resources
By existence is illusive
The kind that is supported
By mechanical resources
I wanna be instamatic
I wanna be a frozen pea
I wanna be dehydrated
In a consumer society
In a consumer society
In a consumer society

Comedy. It was just huge in my house. Peter Sellers and Alec Guinness, Monty Python and all those James Bond movies were highly regarded.
