With the latest installment of the Bond franchise, Skyfall, doing so well in theaters, it’s no surprise that James Bond has been around for 50 years. The Bond 50 – A 22 Film Blu-ray Collection is a collection of 22 films from the days of Sean Connery to the current Bond, Daniel Craig. Nine of the included films are on Blu-ray for the first time, giving fans a chance to see all that classic action in high definition.
The world of Bond has taken many generations by storm and we all have our personal favorite, it’s Sean Connery for me. While I appreciate the toughness Daniel Craig and the latest Bond films have brought to the franchise, I do miss those classic Bond girl names, Pussy Galore, Xenia Onatopp and Dr. Holly Goodhead.
