The ultimate THUNDERBALL shrine.

Of course Sean Connery was the best Bond. No arguments here. Though I can say that the choice of Daniel Craig has me captivated. For I think he's exactly what the series needs. A Bond with more balls & less smugness. Lets hope it gets as gritty as it was back in the 60s. Alas the look of those days are far gone, so we just have to make do with what exists from that period.

Alan Gilbert's incredible website dedicated to just one of the Bond films is one of the cleanest & well thought out designs on the internet. It's been online for almost 6 years & has amassed an extraordinary amount of material for your perusal. Appropriately he's named it Obsessional and after you have had a scout around, you'll most likely concur. The information is staggering, but what I truly admire is the great lengths he has gone to in scanning images for the site. It truly is mind boggling & very completist. Even if you aren't into the Bond films, it's worth it just for the artwork & design that was associated with that period & specifically the spy genre.
