Right where we can`t touch him.

You can`t... but I can.

Look, we`re here in case things escalate,

not to make sure that they do.

No incursions into the North.

The president gave me a direct order.

And when did that ever stop you?

You make your own decision.

I`m sending in 007.

You think I`d leave this

in the hands of the British?

You go with him.

Approaching drop zone!

OK, let`s go!

- They`ve entered North Korean airspace.

- Relax, Robinson.

If our radar can`t see those switchblades,

the North Koreans sure as hell can`t.

Hey, boss, they launched against Icarus.

Leave it on automatic.

I hope nobody here is superstitious. That

is one big mirror we`re about to break.

My God.

Mobilise the South Korean troops.

And get me the president, now!

Still no news of Bond?

Vehicles.

Some big shots.

It`s him.

- 300 metres.

- Windage:
one and a half.

We`ve gotta get on that plane.

You. Have my father brought down.

Father.

I regret our meeting

had to be like this.

You can`t tell it`s me?

I don`t know you.

You`ve always found it difficult

to accept me.

That made my exile easier to bear,

but I never forgot what you taught me.

``In war the victorious strategist

only seeks battle...

..after the victory has been won.``

You see, Father,

I remember my Art of War.

And this is what guarantees that victory.

My son...

What have you done to yourself?

Come, Father.

Watch the rising of your son.

The second that hits the 38th parallel,

we`ll hit them with everything we got.

That may not be enough.

Do you see, Father?

Icarus is clearing the minefield,

creating a highway for our troops.

If the Americans don`t run,

Icarus will destroy them.

Japan is a bug waiting to be squashed.

And the West will shake with fear.

- America will send nuclear warheads.

- Icarus will swat them from the sky.

You will destroy us.

You would kill your own son?

The son I knew died long ago.

Father, you disappoint me.

Caution. Caution.

Manual. Manual.

Up! Up!

Come on.

OK, guys.

OK.

I got it.

My, my. You get around.

Let`s see your gun.

Uh-uh. Left hand.

That`s it.

That`s it. Now drop it.

Looks like your friends have bailed.

Put it on autopilot.

Come on.

That`s it. Good girl.

Drowning you didn`t seem to work. I`ll

have to try something more to the point.

I can read your every move.

Read this.

B*tch!

Oh, look! Parachutes for the both of us.

Whoops. Not any more.

You see, Mr Bond,

you can`t kill my dreams.

But my dreams can kill you.

Time to face destiny.

Time to face gravity.

I think I broke her heart.

Looks like we`re going down together.

Not yet.

- Get the back open!

- OK!

Come on!

- Come on. Come on.

- I told you I was a jinx.

I should have warned you.

My relationships don`t last either.

- At least we`re gonna die rich.

- Huh?

Come on. Come on, come on.

Come on. Come on.

Now...

you said something about

going down together?

James.

Moneypenny.

Oh, James.

Moneypenny?

I was... just testing it out.

It`s rather hard, isn`t it?

Yes. Very.

Wait. Don`t pull it out.

I`m not finished with it yet.

See? It`s a perfect fit.

- Leave it in.

- Well, it`s gotta come out sooner or later.

No, leave it in, please.

A few more minutes.

We really have to get these back.

Still the good guys, huh?

I`m still not quite sure...

how good you are.

I am so good.

Especially when you`re bad.

I need to lay down.

Ian Fleming

Ian Lancaster Fleming (28 May 1908 – 12 August 1964) was an English author, journalist and naval intelligence officer who is best known for his James Bond series of spy novels. Fleming came from a wealthy family connected to the merchant bank Robert Fleming & Co., and his father was the Member of Parliament for Henley from 1910 until his death on the Western Front in 1917. Educated at Eton, Sandhurst and, briefly, the universities of Munich and Geneva, Fleming moved through several jobs before he started writing. While working for Britain's Naval Intelligence Division during the Second World War, Fleming was involved in planning Operation Goldeneye and in the planning and oversight of two intelligence units, 30 Assault Unit and T-Force. His wartime service and his career as a journalist provided much of the background, detail and depth of the James Bond novels. Fleming wrote his first Bond novel, Casino Royale, in 1952. It was a success, with three print runs being commissioned to cope with the demand. Eleven Bond novels and two collections of short stories followed between 1953 and 1966. The novels revolved around James Bond, an officer in the Secret Intelligence Service, commonly known as MI6. Bond was also known by his code number, 007, and was a commander in the Royal Naval Reserve. The Bond stories rank among the best-selling series of fictional books of all time, having sold over 100 million copies worldwide. Fleming also wrote the children's story Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang and two works of non-fiction. In 2008, The Times ranked Fleming 14th on its list of "The 50 greatest British writers since 1945". Fleming was married to Ann Charteris, who was divorced from the second Viscount Rothermere because of her affair with the author. Fleming and Charteris had a son, Caspar. Fleming was a heavy smoker and drinker for most of his life and succumbed to heart disease in 1964 at the age of 56. Two of his James Bond books were published posthumously; other writers have since produced Bond novels. Fleming's creation has appeared in film twenty-six times, portrayed by seven actors. more…
