The main problem with that is that three Bonds have had the same dead wife (died for Lazenby, mentioned in Spy Who Loved Me for Moore, and IIRC it was mentioned in one of the Connery movies too). And given that Felix Leiter turned out to not be a codename (even though Felix was a different actor in every movie and in Live and Let Die he was black) it would be rather silly saying James Bond was.

I forgot about Felix Leiter. The only Connery Bond movie that could've mentioned Tracy was Diamonds Are Forever, and it was the reason why he was on that rampage in the teaser.

Also, the books established that his parents were called Monique Delacroix and Andrew Bond. Although you could make the argument that this was the first James Bond, and all others were named after him.

More awesome really. The Aston Martin driving scene while playing the classic Bond theme wasn't distracting enough?

And this movie also established that the parents of this Bond is also with the last name Bond.

I saw Red Dawn. All I have to say is the original is much better.

Need to even say that much? I'll watch it just to see Thor play a Marine. "This is my hammer. There are none like it and this one is mine"

The Microsoft store has Binary Domain for the Xbox for ten bucks. I'm kicking myself for ordering it used from Gamefly for $15 last week.
