"X marks the spot"

All I see is that "(TV)" indicator right next to the titles. (Which, ironically, I don't see next to the "Biography" entries).

Oh goody: controversy!

As has been mentioned about 600 times '(TV)' on the I.M.D.B. means a 'film' made for television. Television programmes are indicated in double inverted commas.

What's wrong with your eye, Sal? Seems you're blinking a lot.

O.K.: "Go Ask Alice" was clearly a made-for-TV movie. It has the (TV) indicator, so, for the 601st time, I guess it counts. But what if I didn't have a TV when I saw it? Would it still count?

Genghis Khan

Stalean's "Son Of A Hun"

The Huns and the Mongols were tribes seperated by 1000 miles and 500 years ( figures from memory so guesstimates )

Amazingly for a review that's so wrong, ( Unless of course the film itself mistakenly refers to Huns ) the review has 11 votes

The review could always be moved under "Sign Of The Pagan" once it's been added, which has Jack Palance as Attila the Hun.

Reminds me of the "German portrait of evil" debate, which I would love to renew.

One could say that he was Attila/Atli's spiritual heir.

It depends on whether you count Peter Sellers.

Connery, (Sellers), Lazenby, Moore, Dalton, Brosnan, Craig.

One could reasonably call Craig the sixth Bond.

In my opinion, we should use the definition that it only counts if it's an "official" Bond, i.e. made by Eon.

Because otherwise, we'd have to say that Barry Nelson was the first actor to play James Bond, even if it was in a TV episode.

Bob Holness played him on the radio, then (much later) went on to do blockbusters I'll have a P please bob.

I know that there are all sorts of ambiguities, but I meant that the site cannot have it both ways. One of the reviews is wrong (or both are).

I was looking through the list but I can't find a review there that calls Craig the 7th Bond. Which ones are you talking about?

(In the 1st Casino Royale, a whole bunch of agents are renamed "James Bond", including Peter Sellers, and then there's Woody Allen who is "Jimmy Bond", the real Bond's nephew. However, it was David Niven who was THE "Sir James Bond" in that movie, not Peter Sellers.)
