Never before seen footage - previously unreleased and behind the scenes footage from the Bond vaults But (and this is a key point) missing from this Bonus Disc are the 6 Skyfall Video Blog featurettes that were included on the Bond 50 set’s Bonus Disc. Presumably, they were omitted for disc space reasons, but it’s a real shame to lose them (note that they have not been added to the Skyfall BD in this set). It’s also worth nothing that this set continues to omit a some of the legacy Die Another Day DVD features (listed here in our previous Blu-ray review)and some of the 2-disc Casino Royale: Collector’s Edition Blu-ray features (listed here), which means this set isn’t truly the “ultimate” box it claims to be. Dr. No (1962) - His name is Bond, James Bond. And here, in his explosive film debut, Ian Fleming’s immortal action hero blazes through one of his most spectacular adventures. Sean Connery embodies the suave yet lethal cool of Agent 7 as he battles the mysterious Dr. No, a scientific genius bent on destroying the U.S. space programme.

Locations (HD, 2 min.) – Obviously enough, this is a montage of some of the exotic locales featured in Bond films. Again, the shot-by-shot list only identifies the movie associated with each clip, without explaining where the scene was filmed.

A View To A Kill (1985) - Roger Moore lends humour, elegance and lethal charm to his final performance as James Bond in A View to a Kill. Bond confronts Max Zorin (Christopher Walken), who has devised a plan to corner the world’s microchip market, even if he has to kill millions to do it. But before Bond can stop the madman, he must confront Zorin’s beautiful and deadly companion, May Day (Grace Jones). Dr. No (1962), From Russia With Love (1963), Goldfinger (1964), Thunderball (1965), You Only Live Twice (1967), On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969), Diamonds Are Forever (1971), Live and Let Die (1973), The Man with the Golden Gun (1974), The Spy Who Loved Me (1977), Moonraker (1979), For Your Eyes Only (1981), Octopussy (1983), A View to a Kill (1985), The Living Daylights (1987), Licence To Kill (1989), Goldeneye (1995), Tomorrow Never Dies (1997), The World is Not Enough (1999), Die Another Day (2002), Casino Royale (2006), Quantum Of Solace (2008), Skyfall (2012), (space reserved for Spectre DVD 2015). James Bond has long been one of my all-time favorite movie franchises, and I eagerly look forward to the many hours of entertainment that revisiting the entire series will bring me. This excellent 50th anniversary box set collects all 22 of the existing films, including the nine never before available on Blu-ray, and even has an extra placeholder for the future release of 'Skyfall'. It's a fantastic collection. As with Bond 50, the highlight of this set is an exclusive Bonus Disc, but not the same one. It includes some new content, the centerpiece of which is – at long last – the feature-length documentary Everything or Nothing: The Untold Story of 007 directed by Stevan Riley (98 minutes). This was produced in 2012 and released in the UK on DVD in the run-up to Skyfall. It played here in the States on cable and Netflix, but went unreleased on disc. Thankfully, it’s presented here on Blu-ray for the first time in full 1080p HD. It’s a really terrific piece of work. It details the origins of Ian Fleming’s creation, the early history and inspirations for the character, his difficult journey to the screen, the various rights disputes, all the various efforts to cast new Bonds over the years, and the twists and turns the franchise has taken in response to the changing times. New interviews with virtually every key participant are included, save for Sean Connery and those key figures no longer living, and they’re represented by archival interview footage. The documentary is fantastic. If you’re a fan of this classic film series, I can’t imagine a more interesting look at its history.

The Complete Special Features Library: Mission Dossier" - Audio Commentary Featuring Director Lee Tamahori and Producer Michael G. Wilson Each Bond film has its own DVD so that’s 23 in total or 24 once you buy the Spectre DVD when it comes out in 2016. The Ultimate Bond Collection Set on Blu-Ray was released in November 2017 and consists of all 24 James Bond films On Blu-ray. Dr. No (1962), From Russia With Love (1963), Goldfinger (1964), Thunderball (1965), You Only Live Twice (1967), On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969), Diamonds Are Forever (1971), Live and Let Die (1973), The Man with the Golden Gun (1974), The Spy Who Loved Me (1977), Moonraker (1979), For Your Eyes Only (1981), Octopussy (1983), A View to a Kill (1985), The Living Daylights (1987), Licence To Kill (1989), Goldeneye (1995), Tomorrow Never Dies (1997), The World is Not Enough (1999), Die Another Day (2002), Casino Royale (2006), Quantum Of Solace (2008).The copy of 'Casino Royale' in this box set appears to have most of the content from the 2-disc Collector's Edition Blu-ray consolidated onto a single disc. A few items may have been dropped. I'll dig into that more thoroughly in my review of that specific disc. Well it has to be Sean, shurely? So many memorable scenes from the Scottish Bond who made the role his own from the moment he stepped onto the set of Dr. No with the stunning Ursula Andress. Many would name Connerys' Goldfinger as the benchmark of all Bond films. Indeed, it's difficult to imagine anyone doing it better... His name is Bond, James Bond. He's a legend. He's an icon. He's unstoppable and unkillable. He can defeat any villain and charm the pants off any lady, sometimes simultaneously. Originally the creation of novelist Ian Fleming, the world's greatest secret agent made the transition to the movies in 1962. His adventures on the silver screen proved even more popular than their source material, and have long since outlived their creator. The James Bond series is one of cinema's longest-running and most enduring franchises. This latest James Bond Blu-ray Collection contains every Bond film from Dr. No to Skyfall with a space reserved for Spectre (released on Blu-ray in 2016). Selected items are only available for delivery via the Royal Mail 48® service and other items are available for delivery using this service for a charge.

The man formerly known as Simon Templar in The Saint took the unenviable task of stepping into Connery's gritty shoes but gradually won over many with his own brand of suave charm. The longest running 007 with a total of 7 films including Live and Let Die which stands up as one of the best Bond movies to date. The sound remix on this Blu-ray edition does a fine job of working with the movie's limited source material. There is a surprisingly large amount of directional surround activity in the mix and the aforementioned musical score is well placed. Dialogue is also well presented while still retaining the tinny nature of its original format. In the end, the craftsmen who have created this high definition surround mix have done a masterful job of taking extremely limited source material and breathing new life into it. Even the most surround-happy sound fanatic will doubtlessly be pleased. The Living Daylights (1987) - Timothy Dalton plays James Bond for the first time in this instalment of the 7 franchise. The action this time sees Bond running around various exotic places in pursuit of a couple of seedy dealers in arms, drugs and diamonds.James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) pulls out all the stops to take you on an unforgettable, adrenaline-pumping ride across the globe in this action-filled adventure! From a dark cell in a north Korean prison to the beautiful beaches of Cuba, 007 is on the trail of a diabolical genius who's hell-bent on slicing up the earth - literally. Anyone who owns (or has seen) Fox’sprevious Bond 50 Blu-ray collection might reasonably ask: “What could Fox possibly add to a new Blu-ray box set that we don’t already have?” This review will attempt to answer that question for you. When it comes to iconic film characters, you'd be hard-pressed to find one as well known and loved as James Bond. I recently read an article that mentioned that James Bond and his code name 007 have a 97% world-wide awareness among consumers. That's a pretty startling number that most corporations would kill for. It is also an amazing statistic considering the character's humble origins as the subject of a series of pulp novels from English writer Sir Ian Fleming. As Britain's most famous export, Bond has been revered for half a century around the world. Today, his popularity is at an all-time high. Now that " Quantum of Solace is in theaters, Fox and MGM felt that now would be a great occasion to release a new collection of Bond classics on Blu-ray. Featuring Dr. No, Live and Let Die and Die Another Day what follows is the first volume of what should prove to be a steady stream of Bond classics.
