Quiz The Big, Bad Bond Quiz

[R1s1ngs0n]

Hello Bond fans 😀

 

It's been a while since I've made a movie quiz, let alone a Bond quiz, so I am very pleased to present you with this latest edition which consists of 25 questions, representing each of the EON entries in chronological order.

The questions range from being quite easy (of course, that is my subjective opinion 😅) to fairly challenging, so I hope both the casual and hardcore Bond fans among you will take part in this fun quiz.

 

There is no time limit to submitting your answers, which should be sent to me via PM only! 

And of course, no googling please, otherwise it's no fun 😉 Watching clips from the films to find certain answers is no fair game either.

 

Participants' scores will be posted here as I receive them and I might consider sending a 007 related prize to the first member who manages to get a perfect score.

 

Ready, Set, Go!

[Boilersteel]

Out of 25 I know for sure 2 of them and have a pretty good idea on 2 more.  The rest not so much.

 

[R1s1ngs0n]

The honourable and always game @Boilersteel is the first to submit his answers, achieving a score of 12/25

 

[R1s1ngs0n]

Another illustrious and long-time Bond club regular @hansreinhardt has submitted his answers, netting him a total score of 11/25

Who's next?

[Gary K]

I have seen all the bonds multiple times and yet I would be absolutely guessing on all but 2-3 of these questions.   I guess my attention to (some) details is a bit lacking.  

[R1s1ngs0n]

We have a new Bondie in our midst, please welcome @JackFoley007 😃

Thank you for participating in our quiz, I checked your answers and you are now tied in second place with @hansreinhardt with 11/25

[JackFoley007]

Thanks @R1s1ngs0n!  But I have to say.....dayum.  I thought "surely I got at least half of them right" 😂

[hansreinhardt]

Welcome and well done @JackFoley007! Glad to be in good company, here in second place 😆

 

@R1s1ngs0n Do we eventually find out what the right answers are? I'm curious on a few of them.

What happens if we all fail?  Does @R1s1ngs0n have to come up with a new quiz,  or is he going to curve it. 🤔 😄

Of course.

@Boilersteel @hansreinhardt

Sorry fellas, I just finished watching a scene from one of the movies in order to confirm an answer I had doubts about, and I realized your answer to that same question was actually wrong.

So unfortunately I have to deduct a point from your scores which now stand at 11/25 & 10/25 respectively.

The plot thickens! Curious to eventually see which one it was...

[extantsrevenge]

I have send my answers 😃

 

Please don't let me fail... Please don't let me fail... Please don't let me fail...

 

otherwise I will need to plan my exit

[R1s1ngs0n]

Our resident squirrel @extantsrevenge and my fiercest competitor for the title of most hardcore Bond fan has finally entered the fray 😃

I have to say he did very well, although on a couple of questions I was truly shocked he didn’t get the right answers 😅

He now leads the standings with a most respectable score of 18/25

😨 damn only 18, now I'm even more eager to see the answers revealed later.

 

I was actually ashamed of myself when I wrote the PM and was really struggling on a few, that to be honest should be common knowledge, but with the 18 points I can't even guess all the wrong answers 😭

 

 

[R1s1ngs0n]

Since I think no one else is gonna try their hand at solving this quiz, I think it's time to reveal the answers.

But this is a bittersweet victory as I'm more ashamed about the questions I answered wrong 😨.

 

Thank you @R1s1ngs0n for this Bond villain worthy challenge.... yes you heard me.... I just called you a villain since the quiz was so devious 😜
