And please let the she-Bond carry a Walther.
James Bond/Daniel Craig

Colt 1911- if you’re going to shoot someone, use a caliber larger than a pea.
My thoughts exactly.
Now you've gone and done it! Too much change in my 57 years shared with James! I myself may have to retire from her Majesty's Secret Service if this keeps up!
Traditionally (meaning in the novels), Bond always preferred small-caliber pistols. He was initially partial to Berettas, and was most apt to carry one in a suede shoulder holster. Less work for his tailors, I suppose.
Don't take me too seriously. LOL. Back in the Roger Moore days, I'm surprised the producers didn't give Bond a pocket .50 BMG with a 20 round mag. I can imagine Q saying, "It tucks in nicely under one's waistcoat."
Just give him a Bren gun and be done with it.
PS: lots of NSFW language and bad-word-saying.

With a skeleton grip, of course.
I had never seen Dalton as Bond and found License To Kill at the library so I checked it out. Ultimately, I don't think I was missing anything. He and/or his portrayal of Bond seemed to lack dimension. It seemed like something was missing. I don't think I'll be checking out his other Bond movie.
The movie itself is definitely a product of its time. It was cheesy, rife with cliches and there was some pretty bad acting. I got the impression that they reasoned since this was a Bond movie, it only required B or C level writing. The whole opening sequence was pretty absurd. It's stuff like that that made me appreciate the "rebooted" Bond with Craig. But, that's just me. A lot of people probably watch these older Bonds for the very reason I don't really like them. I'll still probably give Brosnan another try but my hopes aren't very high.

The Aston had the bigger guns.
Yep. Recall that early scene in Dr. No where M takes the Beretta from Bond and imposes the Walther upon him.
I remember my wife made the statement during her first viewing of the movie, "I like that car!"
I felt my wallet strangely vibrate. She never says that about cars.

Mine either. The War Department is the most car neutral person I have ever known.I remember my wife made the statement during her first viewing of the movie, "I like that car!"

Probably the sexiest car ever.
a few years back, before Casino Royale came out, Tarantino was discussing making a Bond movie. I enjoy his movies, but that would have been the end of Bond IMO.
The movie would open with Bond defeating the villain... then the rest of the movie would explain it.
Also starring Samuel L Jackson as M. Harvey Keitel as Q and Michael Madsen as Mr. Pennywise.
Bond would trade in the Aston for a 69 Charger and martinis for beer. He'd also use the F word liberally.
EXACTLY! Plus, I imagine a lot more blood.
You all know that Tarantino wants to do the next Star Trek movie, right?
Featuring Samuel L Jackson as Spock, Harvey Keitel as Bones, Michael Madson as Chekov...
