OP, you might have a few things right, but you are wrong about The Spy Who Loved Me (Nobody Does It Better).

Carly Simon, a Crab, wrote that song and was inspired by her husband James Taylor (a Piscean). The couple had just celebrated the birth of their second child in 1977 while she was writing the song, so technically it's a Crab song dedicated to the marriage of a Cancer-Pisces.
While it may have been inspired by the singer's relationship (at the time), the song itself still does not quite fit a Piscean archetype. Initially I couldn't quite nail down which sign it would best apply to. But then I thought to myself...of all the signs, which one would most likely think that "Nobody Does It Better" was about them? The only ones I could come up with were Aries and Leo, and of the two, Leos tend to be more prone to hubris...assuming you follow the astrological archetypes.

Also consider "Live and Let Die". The lyrics reflect Scorp mentality when in revenge mode - so much so its almost scary. Yet is was written and sung by Paul McCartney...who happens to be a Gem.

As for "For Your Eyes Only", I suspect its pretty much applicable to any water sign. I couldn't quite find any distinguishing traits in the song lyrics that would narrow the field by any margin. But hey, I may have missed something.

Not sure how "A View to a Kill" applies to Libras...please explain...

Hey Professor, you clearly don't know anything about what Carly Simon was thinking about when she wrote the song. She had just finished giving birth to her second child during her marriage to James Taylor.

You are an ignorant fool to assume this has anything to do with a leo.
Apparently I hit a nerve.

Music, like any other form of art is open to interpretation - people don't need to rely solely on the song-writer's intent or motivations to form an opinion. Clearly you feel the need to reinforce your stance and that's great in any debate. What I don't get is the combative nature of your last statements.

Here's an exercise for you - read my previous posts again - take note of the tone and language. It does a fairly decent job of presenting a contrary view with not a single word attacking you personally. There's a lesson there for you - should you chose to learn it.

Of all the bonds, Sean Connery is still the standard by which I judge all others. Just the right combination of rugged charm and sophistication. Roger Moore is cool, but he always came off more of a dandy to me. I have to admit though Daniel Craig's version is a nice take on the character; I'm told this latest incarnation is closer to the how Ian Flemming original wrote him in the original novels.

let's be honest, james bond is the worst cinema franchise, most of the movies are bad, they're just enjoyed for their novelty and spectacular action, but as time passes you really see them for what they are.
There are very few bond movies that I consider "good movies", and most of them are actually pretty bad. For me the dalton and brosnan eras are the best, they were rather good actors and the movies were a little bit more legitimate but not by much. Favorite movies : die another day and the living daylights. Licence to kill could have been good if they had removed half the cast and half the superfluous plot twists.

Connery was a good bond, but most of the movies werebad, Dr no is a totally ridiculous story about a fire spitting dragon that is actually a tank , the scoobydoo cartoon had better stories. From russia with love is very difficult to watch without falling asleep, the one in japan aged very badly, etc, etc... I won't detail them all
Roger moore was probably the worst bond of all, I do't know who had the idea to cast him, he's ridiculous, and although the movies got abit better than the connery one in the late 80s , still not all that. A view to a kill is the most palatable of his movies.
Craig, I don't like either. Trying to be serious in a bond movie cannot work, even if you remove the gadget, the fantasy geoploitics can't be digested very well by a grown up.

Doesnt matter, the male lead treetrunk every beautiful actress in different movie. Bond = sex + lust + violence. Male viewers Focus on the actress, female ones look at Bond, everyone has their cookies.

You're a dude of course you dont like Craig obviously 😄

i saw the SPECTRE film /james bond. it was full of action!!

although i did read that Daniel Craig does NOT like the character of Bond, due to his playboy ways.
he prefers monogamy.
bond is a dirty old man sex tourist.
click to expand

it's based off Ian Fleming (with some fantasy)

you should go see the series of Ian Flemin, the real james bond.

he is a sadist. lol

and loved sadistic women too.

The actions were not bad but nothing made me cry so not as memorable as Skyfall and Casino Royale lol. The chemistry between Daniel Craig and the ladies in both movies were a bit off though.

yep. even as bond, Daniel Craig never give out a playboy vibe. that's why he is the most attractive 007 ever! the epitome of manly + sexy + romantic !!!
