    OHMSS is OOO as it's Tracy and not Bond breaking into something!

    Not still.....

    We might need a wee clue @SIS_HQ or something to spur others on to guess!

    Too bad this thread has gone comatose! @SIS_HQ care to kick start it and offer us a clue?

    Okay, here it is.....

    all films involved a character breaking a major Bond rule, but one of them just failed to do it.

    It's related to some things.

    One of them failed to break the rule?

    Is the word 'thing' in the dialogue in some way?

    Nope.
    It's a literal thing.

    I think we assumed it would be related to having something in common! That's not really a clue though! :D

    Bond meets Q in all three movies, but only in GE does he get any gadgets?

    Close but I'm finding more complex on that.

    I've realized it's a bit misleading, avoid this one.

    Okay, here's another clue:

    * It's a thing
    * They're all related to Bond, but only one is considered personal to him.

    When you say thing, do you mean an object? Because 'thing' has so many definitions as to be very unclear.

    It's kind of assorted thing so it's a bit difficult to say:

    Okay, I'll make it clear:

    Such scenes happened or involved in the third act.
    One of them was happened or involved during the PTS.

    Is it having to do with hitting of women?

    OHMSS Bond smacks Tracey on the beach to bring her back to conscious
    GE Bond smacks Xenia unconscious
    AVTAK Zorin smacks Stacey in the blimp

    OHMSS is the OOO has the smack was to revive the character and not knock them out.

    Nope, but you have the right OOO.
    Nice try and interesting guess though.
    Big reveal:
    It's a belonging of Bond

    Someone else drives Bond’s car? Not sure how that fits with AVTAK though.

    Bond takes photographs of people:

    OHMSS: Minox / Angels of Death
    AVTAK: camera ring / Zorin's party guests
    GE: NV monocular / Xenia

    OHMSS is OOO as Bond takes spy photos of...photos!

    Interesting take, but not still.

    I didn't expected this to be this difficult 😅, okay another clue might've helped you.
    These films all involved a character using Bond's belongings, but only one where it's more of a personal belonging than a corporate belonging

    Someone else using Bond's gun? Are you saying that it's his personal gun in OHMSS because he's not on duty?

    Close close but still not the answer.
    Three films, two men and one man, about Bond's belongings (one is personal the two are been given for his job).

    OHMSS, Tracy steals Bonds Aston Martin.
    AVTAK, Bond steals the taxi to chase MayDay
    GE, Wade drives Bonds BMW Z3, with Bonds permission.

    So either AVTAK is the OOO, as Bond steals someone else's car.
    Or GE is the OOO as Bond lets Wade drive his car, and none of the vehicles are stolen.

    You're right about OHMSS!
    Although the other two are wrong, but still, you've got the correct answer!

    In GE - Boris Grishenko was seen playing with Bond's explosive pen while doing a set up of the Goldeneye Satellite, which was given to Bond by Q Branch, though it's still a question whether Boris steals it from Bond.

    In AVTAK - May Day steals Bond's gun inside his jacket when Zorin ordered her to search for Bond's gun in the City Hall, the gun was also given to him by MI6, so a corporate belonging.

    In OHMSS, Tracy steals Bond's car, but the car didn't came from MI6, it's more of Bond's personal car (if the car came from MI6, then it should have gadgets, it's also the same car used in the film's ending, and proved that it's Bond's personal car since it had no gadgets).

    Over to you, @Benny!

    Sad that the movie features a few scenes of hitting a women. Or should I say a woman. Course it let the female villain off with nary a comeuppance.

    Thank you @SIS_HQ

    Okay new round. This should be nice and easy.

    QOS
    SF
    SP

    Which is the OOO?

    SP is OOO has female M only appears via video and not in real life.

    A good guess @thedove and thank you for getting the ball rolling.
    I should've added, it's something Bond does, or doesn't do in one of the three.

    Bond is seen on the rooftops of all three films, but in SF he's on a motorbike on the roof of the buildings.

    You're heading in the right direction. It's not rooftops though.
