It's obvious the vast majority of bond movies fans never read any of the books.
Follow Ups:
With FRWL and Casino Royale four times each. I should have been studying.
In the early '60s the films more closely matched the books. Goldfinger started going off the rails by irradiating Ft. Knox rather than actually stealing it.
Fleming was the first heavy product placement guy.
I can understand that - if the film deviates from the book and you loved the book then you will probably hate the film.
The other day I watched a documentary called "The Movies that Made Us" and each documentary is on a particular hit film. This one was on Pretty Woman originally called Three Thousand and the original script was miles apart from what came to be the film. But the screenwriter was fine going along with the changes. Probably because if it followed the book it would have made $3million (maybe) at the box office and been out of the theatre after a week.
but I LOVE the movie! Sometimes when you have read the book (or in this case books) the film will not live up to your expectations. The Great Gatsby comes to mind as an example for me. BOTH versions SUCKED!
