#JamesBond #TheWhiteLotus #DiamondsAreForever #Crossover #MrWintandMrKiddThe Spy Who Loved Me - Alternate Opening CreditsSam R2022-05-22 | This has been on the back burner for a while but finally finished it! I wanted to use one of The Supremes' final songs 'You Are The Heart Of Me' as I thought it fit well with this style of title sequence (and it's one of my personal favourites).
There aren't too many cast changes aside from casting Lois Chiles, James Mason and Sylvia Kristel as Anya Amasova, Stromberg and Naomi respectively. All three were considered for roles in The Spy Who Loved Me and so I wanted to include them in this version of the opening titles (of course Chiles would be cast as Holly Goodhead in Moonraker, a role which could've been won by Sylvia Kristel).
I love this title sequence and so I very much enjoyed working on this alternate version!
#JamesBond #TheSpyWhoLovedMe #TheSupremesSpyHards Podcast - Diamonds Are Forever Review PromoSam R2022-04-03 | A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of creating a promotional video for SpyHards Podcast's review of Diamonds Are Forever. This resulted in a custom gunbarrel and title sequence snippet. This was a lot of fun to be a part of and I thank SpyHards for letting me work on it!
#JamesBond #DiamondsAreForever #SpyHardsCold Fusion (Die Another Day) - Alternative Opening TitlesSam R2022-02-20 | This was bumped to the top of the queue of projects to work on after the topic of using a Sugababes song as a Bond theme came back around! 'Run For Cover' is one of my favourites of theirs and was the only choice when it came to using one of their early hits to use in a Die Another Day title sequence. I think the vibe and lyrics fit rather well (hopefully you'll agree).
I wasn't going to change much else but I ended up making a number of changes, starting with the title of the film. Cold Fusion was one of the potential names for Die Another Day along with some others that I didn't think worked as well; I thought this would be a great opportunity to change the name seen as we are in the original name territory of Bond.
Several cast changes were made based on a mix of rumoured actors who either weren't chosen or rejected roles or up and coming actors of a similar age. These include Salma Hayek as Jinx, Jason Isaacs as Gustav Graves, Olivia Williams as Miranda Frost and Cha In-pyo as Colonel Moon. I also added Michelle Yeoh as Wai Lin as she was rumoured to appear for a few minutes to aid Bond in Hong Kong.
For the first time, I actually rearranged a couple of the title sequence shots to better fit the music which I think worked quite well. I also made all font colours white which is a lot easier on the eye compared to the mix of whites, reds and yellows used in the original sequence.
I'm very happy with how this video turned out so I hope you all enjoy also!

#JamesBond #TheSimpsons #NoTimeToDieYou Only Live Twice - Alternative Opening Titles with George LazenbySam R2022-01-17 | What if Lazenby had returned for a second film? What if Connery's fifth film wasn't 'You Only Live Twice'? Here is the answer! Had the Blofeld trilogy been completed in order then this would be the final outing for Blofeld after the murder of Tracy Bond on her wedding day.
With Tracy's death being the pre-title sequence (similar to my alternative 'Diamonds Are Forever') and the story continuing from 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service', I decided to add Gabriele Ferzetti and Virginia North to the opening credits (Draco and Olympe respectively). Telly Savalas and Ilse Steppat are also added from that film. I removed Mie Hama from the cast and kept Akiko Wakabayashi to allow for there just to be one main female lead for Bond (considering this is a sequel film). I also added Kate O'Mara to the cast where I would envision her to play a version of Mary Goodnight (in a similar role as in the 'You Only Live Twice' novel).
With this version, I kept on a lot of the crew from the previous film so that includes Peter Hunt as director, John Glen as editor etc. This does mean that we wouldn't get the amazing volcano set which is not a thought anyone really wants!
I created a poll on Twitter where people voted on which version of 'You Only Live Twice' (or 'We Have All The Time In The World') they would want using if Tracy's death was the pre-title and the majority voted for Nancy Sinatra's version. I intended to use this but the transition just wasn't working so I decided to switch to Julie Rogers' version of the song which I think musically and lyrically fits much better with the tone set during the pre-title sequence.
This was fun to do, not perfect but a nice "what if" that I hope you all will enjoy.
#YouOnlyLiveTwice #JamesBond #GeorgeLazenbyYou Only Live Twice - Alternate Opening CreditsSam R2022-01-08 | This time I've created an alternate version of the You Only Live Twice opening title sequence. Most changes are in casting and the title song.
I've always enjoyed the Lorraine Chandler version of 'You Only Live Twice' so I was very happy to include that in here. With regards to cast, I did some shifting around (and included Tsai Chin who plays Ling), replacing the actors for Blofeld, Tanaka and Brandt with Jan Werich, Toshirô Mifune and Eva Renzi respectively. As with other title sequences, I added M as the final cast credit and moved Jan Werich to third billing underneath Akiko Wakabayashi.
Aside from this, there isn't much else that I have changed but just tried to make this look as realistic as possible whilst making some text changes based on what looked better visually.
I hope you all enjoy!
#JamesBond #YouOnlyLiveTwice #SeanConneryOn Her Majesty’s Secret Service - Alternative Opening Titles with Sean ConnerySam R2022-01-02 | It had to be done, the On Her Majesty’s Secret Service opening titles with Sean Connery!
I’m not the best at masking or colour correction but hopefully seeing Connery briefly helps the illusion! I decided not to use an alternate song and went with the classic title song.
Likewise I chose not to replace any of the other actors aside from Telly Savalas where I decided to use Donald Pleasance. I did add some returning cast members including Rik Van Nutter and Tetsurō Tamba as Felix Leiter and Tiger Tanaka who could potentially both be at the wedding (perhaps Felix could be at the hotel and casino with James near the beginning of the film too).
I also added Tsai Chin who played Ling in You Only Live Twice. I thought that she could be one of the Angels of Death, already working undercover without knowing that Blofeld is the main villain. She could aide James and either escape or be caught out and be killed (rather not the latter).
Aside from these things, nothing else has changed apart from tweaking the first part of the titles to include Saltzman and Broccoli presents (as this was used in the gunbarrel instead) and adding Connery’s name prior to the title.
I hope you all enjoy and thank you for your support!

#JamesBond #OHMSS #OnHerMajestysSecretService #GoldeneyeLicence Revoked (Licence To Kill) - Alternative Opening TitlesSam R2021-11-21 | Giving Dalton more love! I was working on a The World Is Not Enough title sequence with Dalton but decided to park it for now, but happy to share Licence To Kill but not as people know it!
Most people know that the film was originally titled Licence Revoked so I had to make that change although I was unsure whether it best suited it or not (thanks to Tom from ‘Really, 007!’ and David from ‘Licence To Queer’ for their feedback). The title font has been changed to match one of the fonts used for Licence To Kill in its marketing.
In terms of other changes, the main cast changes including the two Bond girls with other actresses who were almost cast as well as replacing David Hedison (difficult thing for me to do) with John Terry as Felix Leiter who hopefully could’ve performed better with a meatier role. I also shifted some names about and added John Rhys-Davies who was rumoured to have back as General Pushkin. As usual I moved the ‘M’ casting to the final section of cast credits.
I shifted a large portion of the credits in this sequence to allow for space for the Queen title song. Gladys Knight’s name and the title song didn’t appear in the original opening titles and so it was a no-brainer to add a space for the track I chose.
‘Was It All Worth It’ is a fantastic song by Queen but it was a b*tch to edit down for the sequence. Some of the lyrics didn’t fit at all so I cut the majority out and tried to piece it all together again and made sure that there wasn’t too much instrumental in there. Some of the lyrics that are still there fit the film really well in my opinion and the opportunity to give Queen a Bond opening was just too good to miss!
Not sure when the next one will be out or what i’ll do but keep your eyes peeled!
#LicenceToKill #JamesBond #LicenceRevoked #007Moonraker - Alternative Opening Credits V2Sam R2021-08-20 | Another Moonraker opening credits edit! This was actually in the works before I began the Kate Bush version that I uploaded a earlier this year. 'The Golden Lady' by The Three Degrees was the title song for the film of the same name that released in the same year (which also featured Desmond Llewelyn). Whilst I haven't seen the film I thought it would be fun to put that song over these credits.
Unlike the Kate Bush edit, I've done some cast swaps which includes adding Sylvia Kristel as Dr Holly Goodhead (although potentially could have been more like Gala Brand) and Kim Basinger as Trudi Parker (original version of Corinne Dufour), James Mason as Hugo Drax, Adele Fátima as Manuela and added Walter Gotell and Barbara Bach (the latter who was planned to make an appearance). I've also reverted the Moonraker title back to the original version which looks better than the actual Moonraker logo used on promotional materials.
The song's not great but funky enough and is peak disco, plus The Three Degrees sound really good (this lineup at least haha).
#Moonraker #JamesBond #TheThreeDegrees #007Tomorrow Never Dies - Alternative Opening Titles with Timothy DaltonSam R2021-07-25 | Following my previous Goldeneye opening titles with Timothy Dalton, I have thought more and more about what could have taken place had he continued further into Brosnan's era.
The number of cast changes is slightly smaller with the biggest changes being the inclusion of Michael Kitchen who was absent originally, Anthony Hopkins who was lined up to play Elliot Carver, David Hedison and Caroline Bliss returning as Felix and Moneypenny respectively and finally the return of Maryam d'Abo as Kara Milovy (or Kara Carver which I'm sure Bond would make a joke about).
As Tomorrow Never Dies came out 10 years after The Living Daylights, and that the character's death would be much more impactful had it been a previous Bond girl, I decided to choose Kara who seemed the clearer choice when it came down to picking between her and Pam Bouvier.
Not much else has changed aside from those cast changes aside from the music. I decided to keep David Arnold as the main composer (in this reality he would have impressed producers with the Play Dead theme song from Goldeneye) and just used the rejected theme song from Swan Lee. Although this was released a few years later, we don't know how much this changed from the original version. I was close to using Surrender as it does fit more with Dalton however I think I prefer Swan Lee's Tomorrow Never Dies.
Again I thought this would take a while to do but I ended up doing most of it in one go so it's been another fun project to do!
#JamesBond #TomorrowNeverDies #TimothyDalton #SwanLeeGoldeneye - Alternative Opening Titles with Timothy DaltonSam R2021-06-20 | The more I thought about doing this, the more excited about it I got so I'm really pleased with how it turned out in the short space of time that I had to create it in.
I've taken quite a lot of creative liberties here and brought in quite a few of the Dalton era cast to make for a more seamless transition. As I changed these cast members it made sense to add actors who almost played the parts of Natalya, Xenia and Bond himself with the latter (Liam Neeson) being more of a match for Dalton's Bond than Sean Bean in my opinion.
I added Robert Brown and Geoffrey Keen to this as I feel like it would've been great to give them a proper final film due to their contribution and matches the idea that Judi Dench's M is relatively new allowing Brown's character to finalise the handover. I would've felt bad to leave out Caroline Bliss even though Samantha Bond does such a great job in Goldeneye.
Some things such as the font colour for the title sequence I couldn't find so I chose a more "gold yellow" colour that I feel stands out but doesn't look too jarring or cheap (hopefully).
I was a bit cheeky and added in one of Dalton's Licence To Kill plane shots into the opening just to make it seem more real even though it's not entirely convincing!
I also ran a Twitter poll on whether people would have preferred John Barry or David Arnold to score Goldeneye with 64% choosing Barry hence why he is listed. As I've used Bjork's 'Play Dead' which was co-written and produced by David Arnold, it would make sense in this universe that Arnold's work on the theme song would help him on getting to score Tomorrow Never Dies.
This was so much fun to do so I hope you all enjoy it too!
#JamesBond #Goldeneye #TimothyDaltonOctopussy - Alternative Opening Title CreditsSam R2021-06-19 | I love All Time High and its use throughout the Octopussy score however I think had they chosen a new direction for the title song, it could have received much more acclaim. I think the Eurythmics/Annie Lennox would have done a great job with an original song for Bond however here I've chosen their 1983 classic 'Who's That Girl?'.
Who's that girl? It's Octopussy!

Other changes include the title itself to match the marketing font as well as adding the special ‘M’ credit which is more poignant for this film with it being Bernard Lee’s last as the Head of the British Secret Service.
