Bond Car Takes Bath

What in the world is James Bond going to do for wheels now that his Aston Martin DBS has gone for a swim in Lake Garda in northern Italy? A stunt driver taking the car to the set of “Quantum of Solace,” the new 007 film starring Daniel Craig, lost control of the vehicle early Saturday morning and it went flying into the lake, Agence France-Presse reported, citing the Italian news agency ANSA. The Associated Press reported heavy rain at the time. The unidentified driver escaped with minor bruises, a report said, and Sky Italia television later showed the car — the only one available for filming — being winched out of the water, right. The film is scheduled to be released late this year.

Interestingly, I'll be going on vacation there in June. Driving very slowly.

Ouch:

The big news in Western Austria last week was that they filmed scenes for QoS in Bregenz and Feldkirch.

News reports

Sorry they're in German, still, lots of pictures and video.

The new incarnation of Bond rather eschews this habit, but here's a list:

The Ten Best, Or Maybe Worst, James Bond Double Entendres of All Time

By Timothy Sexton, published May 25, 2008

"James Bond has been around in many incarnations ever since Ian Fleming first introduced him to the world in book form. The most famous Bond of all is also the most overrated; frankly, I just don't get the attraction for Sean Connery. The guy is so incredibly smarmy that it is hard to imagine Pussy Galore or Honey Ryder ever falling for his slimy lines. Throughout the history of James Bond from his very first big screen appearance to Casino Royale the films have been filled with more painful double entendres than a high school pep rally. Here are the top ten best/worst James Bond double entendres so far. Of course, it is vitally important to remember that Bond isn't the only character who has been forced to say this atrocious/delicious dialogue.

10. The Spy Who Loved Me.
M: "Miss Moneypenny, where is 007 now?
Moneypenny: "He's on a mission, sir. In Austria."
M: "Well, tell him to pull out immediately!"

9. The World is Not Enough.

"James Bond: (Speaking to a female nuclear physicist named Christmas): "I thought Christmas only comes once a year." Made all the funnier by the fact that the actress playing a nuclear physicist named Christmas was Denise Richards. I wonder if she can even spell physicist. Or Christmas. Or Denise for that matter."

Honestly, if this is no. 9, there must be some serious shockers out there that I don't recall.

I think the character was named Christmas simply to make this joke.

I'll forever defend the christmas joke. If you're gonna do a pun about sex and christmas, it's a pretty good one, I laughed at it at least...

There are many far worse jokes to be found in the Bond movies.

And here's one of them:

8. Tomorrow Never Dies.

"Moneypenny: "You always were a cunning linguist, James." This would perhaps have been funnier if the same joke hadn't been doing on St. Elsewhere a decade earlier."

I liked the "Christmas line". I LOLed. It was the last line of the movie. It is better than "Oh, James".

Solitaire (Bond girl): "Is there time before we leave for Lovers' Lesson number three?"

James Bond: "Absolutely. No sense going out half-cocked."

5. A View to a Kill

"James Bond: "I take it you spend quite a lot of time in the saddle."
Jenny Flex (perhaps the most boring Bond girl name ever) "Yes, I love an early morning ride"
James Bond: "Well, I'm an early riser myself."
