Sometime ago I saw a James Bond site with information about all the production errors, mistakes, and bloopers of all the Bond movies. I thought it was CommanderBond.net but that site doesn't have nearly the extensive coverage I remember. In fact, the site I was thinking of had lots of pictures of those mistakes. Would anyone know of it and where I can find it? James Bond movies goofs came up at a business lunch today and I'd like to direct the diners to a good website. Thank you.

Thank you so much. The luncheon I mentioned was actually part of a planning committee for a writers retreat we have scheduled at a lovely plantation home. We were discussing sessions to be offered when someone suggested that one of our gentlemen do a talk on antebellum weapons for our historical writers. He's was a detective, a retired policeman, who is head of homeland security for New Orleans. He said it would be fun to do that because he hates it when writers and movie producers get it wrong. He then told the infuriating story of being a consultant on the Bond movie Live and Let Die and they got it all wrong! He said it was one of the most frustrating experiences in his life. Why ask for a consult if you don't listen to what they tell you? And we won't even mentioned the things they do with off-the-wall accents they saddle the actors with when they do movies based in New Orleans. If they don't use gawd-awful Cajun accents, they use southern ones - none of which is correct by a long shot. Needless to say, when he saw the end result in the movie theatre, he was tearing out his hair.
