Thats incorrect For your eyes only is a title of a Ian Fleming Bond SHort Story and features the characters from it. It also uses some elements of Live and Let Die also.
DM is correct. For Your Eyes... was published in 1960.
I've just checked it and this is where it gets complicated.
The first non-Flemming film was Never Say Never Again but that isn't counted as an "official" Bond film as it wasn't produced by Cubby Broccolli and Co. The first "official" film to not be based on a Flemming novel was A View To A Kill.
I guess we'll have to argue about which answer to accept.
To be fair though Never Say Never AGain was a remake of thunderball so technically it's linked.
A view to a kill is based on the Fleming short story From a view to a Kill weirdly enough from For your Eyes Only. The actual first totally original Bond other than the title is The SPy WHo Loved Me.
But the first film to be completely non Fleming associated is Licence to Kill due to it be written by John Gardner many years after Fleming passed.
Silly me another mistake, I just realised I mixed up my questions and answers as they were so similar.
I asked What James Bond film was the first not be based on an Ian Fleming novel or short story? The answer to this question hasn't been posted yet.
When I said MIB had posted the answer it because I was looking at the answer for the question What was the first Bond film to be based on one of Ian Fleming`s short stories and not on one of his novels?
So the original question still stands, so keep guessing. I will post a new picture for whoever gets it right.
Guess what I've messed up again. I said no one had answered the original question correctly, but I was again wrong. DM did post the correct answer, it was Goldeneye.
I've made a total mess of this round haven't I?
Two options, I can post the next picture and DM can ask a question, or I can start over again and ask a whole new question without posting the next picture.
Nice one. I don't really know enough about Bond to post a question myself, so instead I ask about possibly the greatest TV show of the 21st century: Prison Break.
Which actor from the show has actually spent time in prison?
As I don't have a clue and I've tried cheating but can't find the answer, we could just start naming the cast until we get the right answer like people did for my Bond question.
