From the first book, Casino Royale, to the last, You Only Live Twice, readers will appreciate the genius and remarkable abilities of Bond’s creator, Ian Fleming. In addition to the 12 full-length novels, this collection also includes two books of short storie The James Bond Anthology celebrates the world’s most famous fictional spy, Commander James Bond, also known as 007. There's little you'll recognize from the classic Disney tale.The James Bond Anthology celebrates the world’s most famous fictional spy, Commander James Bond, also known as 007. Or maybe watch the first half hour, but skip the rest. If you're a fan of the original, skip this mess of a film and watch the original again. But there was little there but a cliched story with a bit of Burton's weirdness thrown in. I actually found myself yawning and drifting off during what should've been the climax of the film. Unfortunately, like many of his characters, he's become a caricature of himself with no new ideas, just remaking old ideas in his own style which has become a caricature of itself. Some of Burton's early films, like 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' were brilliant and groundbreaking. Danny Elfman's over dramatic score, another predictable staple of Burton's films, doesn't help. Unfortunately, it does so in what seems such a forced way and what's become such a cliche way in Burton films and it doesn't even really fit the story line.
