I unapologetically capitalize all Bond title words

It’s such a force of habit at this point that I’ve been doing it for so long. Ever since I watched my first Bond movie, GoldenEye, and fell down the 007 rabbit hole, I’ve developed certain capitalization habits that I simply cannot shake. Sorry, Licence to Kill and From Russia with Love, but you’ve always been Licence To Kill and From Russia With Love to me, and that’s not changing anytime soon.

The same goes for Live and Let Die (Live And Let Die), The Man with the Golden Gun (The Man With The Golden Gun), A View to a Kill (A View To A Kill), Quantum of Solace (Quantum Of Solace) and No Time to Die (No Time To Die). There’s something about those lowercase words, particularly in A View to a Kill, The Man with the Golden Gun and No Time to Die, that makes the titles look oddly diminished, as if the lowercase words are being asked to tone it down. So, yes, I deliberately violate standard title capitalization, because in my eyes, every word in a Bond movie title is THAT important.

Capitalize all the words in all the Bond movie titles!

Yes, I obsessively played GoldenEye 007 on Nintendo 64 and loved it, and I also read all of the Fleming Bond novels a long time ago.  But recently, and maybe it’s just because I’m getting older, but these two mediums for James Bond content don’t scratch my James Bond itch at all.  I guess that…

Has anybody actually watched season 1?  Let alone will tune in to the upcoming season 2?  A James Bond themed game show/competition does not sound compelling to me in the slightest. Another (common) marketing miss for the James Bond powers-that-be.  I wonder if there’s another $30,000 Faberge egg available at 007store.com…
