Caption contest
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Re: Caption contest
The exact moment the Bond franchise jumped the shark --- notwithstanding that it was a nuclear-powered shark carrying an atomic warhead and a laser cannon controlled by a megalomaniacal obese dwarf in a hidden sanctuary surrounded by robotic attack bimbos.

Re: Caption contest
A terrible error was made by the photographer. Brad was to have been included with all the Bonds that starred in the original Casino Royale (1967). He played Little Jimmy Bond.

Re: Caption contest
Are we running two contests now, because the second picture is much more pleasant to look at with the exception of one small section. :D:

Re: Caption contest
Congratulations to Stupid Guest Trick’s own wise and wonderful Zazu, who snags his second win with this clever entry. It’s a little like the “jumped the shark” winning caption from the Duck Dynasty pic several weeks ago, but I just couldn’t resist the Bondian spin on exactly what kind of shark it was. Congrats, Zazu!
Honorable Mentions: Matt McBrayer: "The name is Bat. Wom Bat."; Alan AJ Irby: “At long last, George Lazenby is displaced as weirdest Bond ever.”; Dan Stafford: “Brosnan, if you don't stop sticking that gun in my face I'm going to sing Baritone in your ear!!”; and a special mention to SGT's hobie16, for creating his own, completely different Bond/Wombat photoshopped picture -- see the previous posts!
Thanks to all who entered! New picture coming Monday!

CAPTION CONTEST, Week 34 -- How would YOU caption this picture? Comment below!
The same pic will show here, on Facebook, and on The World of Wombat. I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. (As always, no prizes, other than the glory/infamy of being chosen.)
