Why is 007 so popular for a long time


              James Bond, 007 is a film series in UK. When you are asked English movie, many of you will ask this. The main character, James bond and is MI6 top agent and has the license to kill. He has been infiltrate in all over the world for many times and saved UK and sometime the world. 007 is very popular for a long time and 22series has been released.

This series are based on novels written by Ian Fleming. He had really been belonged to MI6, and he wrote them through his experiences. In 1962 the first movie “Dr. No” was released. The box office of it is the highest in 1962 in the world. The second and third movies were also successful. The total box-office of all series is the second highest in the world. It is more than that of “Star Wars” and “the Lord of the Ring”. Moreover the number of the 007 films is much more than other popular movie series. No movie series are as popular for a long time as 007.

Why is 007 so popular for a long time? In conclusion, I think the brand strategy is succeeded. There are three reasons for this. First, the main character, 007 James Bond charms all of the people. He is cool, strong, brilliant, and good-looking. He is a just perfect man. It is very difficult to find his weak point except for beautiful women. Men wish they became him, and women fall in love with him. 6 actors have ever performed 007. Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Piece Brosnan, and Daniel Craig, all of them are smart as like Bond and attract many people. Especially the first 007, Sean Connery formed the image of 007 and many funs say that he is the best. Without him, it would not continue to be successful.

 Second, the design and music raise the audience to enthusiasm. Theme songs of 007 and opening have not changed from the original version. When you here and see them, you will find the movie is 007. In the opening James Bond comes up crossing and someone aim to him. Then Bond suddenly shot him by contraries and his blood run. Without it the audience would feel the movie started. Moreover after it, the very artistic opening movies start. Each of them is made as they fit each images. The animations are unique and smart and receive high evaluations.

 The theme songs are well known. Knowing this is chance to excite the audiences, theme songs start. It also has made the 007 image. Actually it was used at the Olympic figure skating. Kim Yona and Brian Joubert dance to it and entertain many people and 007 funs. They were looked as if they had performed James Bond and Bond Girls. It made their performing different from other artists. Kim Yona made a gesture of shooting at the end of her performing. It was so cool and impressive that all of the people remember this scene. She will have won the Olympic because she entertained the audience the best.   

 Third, “Bond something” set off 007. There are many accompaniments of 007, for example Bond Girls, Bond cars, Walthre P99, and other fantastic weapons. Bond Girls is the heroin of 007. When you hear Bond Girls, you will visualize glamorous and sophisticated women. Many famous and beautiful actresses perform them for example Sophie Marceau, who is one of the most famous French actress, and Halle Berry, who won Academy Award for Best Actress in 2001. They make the series brilliant.

Bond Cars attract many attentions all over the world. Famous brand cars are used, for example BMW, Aston Martin, and TOYOTA. If I had them, they are so luxury that I do not want to hurt them, but in the series, they are broken in various horrible ways. In “THE WORLD IS NOT” BMW was cut in half by big saw! The ways they were broken fantastic, and the weapons and systems are also so fantastic. Stinger missile or Optical Camouflage, Active camouflages are equipped. Everyone will drive them for one time while they are alive. Their car chases are very exciting, so they attract those who like action movie. They also gather much contract money. Lately, Bond Car which was used in “Gold Finger” and “Thunderball” was knocked down 2.6 million ponds. They are loved by 007 funs. Bond something, like Bond Cars and Bond Girls make the audience not to be tired of them by changing the actress or car every one work.

The 007 brand as like James Bond, Theme songs, Opening, Bond Girls, and Bond Cars make the series special and different from other movies. 007 James Bond will entertain and surprise us always as ever.
