    I love it! Brilliant @Max_The_Parrot but no animals were harmed (or used) in this OOO! LOL!

    DN: Major Boothroyd/Q is on hand.
    TMWTGG: Q is on hand.

    LALD: the absence of Q, the Odd One Out.

    Another noble guess but not what I am looking for.

    Hair brushes are featured, but only in LALD is it a gadget (radio transmitter).

    That was a well observed guess. I like it.
    Less creative: you see Bond landing in a plane in all three. It is a public/big plane landing at the airport in DN and LALD, while he lands a small machine on the water in TMWTGG.

    Oh @goldenswissroyale we are getting closer! As my friend Nick Nack would say. So close and yet so far away.

    A small bump to make sure this OOO isn't forgotten.

    Films are DN, LALD, TMWTGG

    Incorrect guesses: film settings all being islands, hair brushes (that was a really good guess!), the appearance or lack thereof Q, Bond landing in the plane in all three films.

    Hint: Bond is involved! A gentleman and a tail!

    There are ‘shows’ in each film, DN has the ‘Jump Up’ band at Pus Feller’s, LALD has Baron Samedi’s show at the hotel, TMWTGG has Saida’s belly dancing. LALD is the OOO as Bond is just passing through instead of watching?

    (doesn't really work as there’s also B.J. Arnau’s show in LALD which Bond is watching, but it’s the best I can do!)

    I admire the effort @Max_The_Parrot and it's a creative guess. But it's not what I am looking for.

    As I don't wish to let this thread die I will give it a bumpity bump bump!

    So my hint was a gentleman and a tail.

    Next hint:

    It involves Bond. In one film he refrains from doing the very thing he does in the others.

    I'm glad you are all thinking hard! LOL! About time I picked one that stumps a few.

    Bond gets into a taxi in both LALD and TMWTGG (‘you’ve got a honky on your tail’) but he’s a gentleman and lets the ladies have the taxi in DN?

    Good one!

    Way to go @Max_The_Parrot you got it! Bond takes the cab in both LALD and TMWTGG. However in DN he refrains and is a gentleman to the ladies.

    The next one is yours!

    That was good one! I thought about cabs for a moment but couldn't find the connection.
    Good work from both of you.

    Ah thanks, good one @thedove, I’ve surprised myself there!

    All these films have something in common, but one is the odd one out

    GF, OHMSS, TSWLM

    All three have car chases, however only in OHMSS is the female lead driving the car.

    That would surely be a record for the fastest correct answer ... alas it’s correct but not the one I’m looking for! ☺️

    I was going for obvious! LOL!

    Let me think on this and see if someone else can dazzle you! :)

    I could need a hint.

    All three feature M out of his office, but only OHMSS shows his home.

    Nothing to do with M, a hint would be focus on Bond!

    Golf is featured in GF, in OHMSS Bond is seen with his Golf Clubs. No Golf or Golf Clubs in TSWLM. Therefore TSWLM is OOO

    I’m very impressed with that observation, but it’s not what I’m looking for. They all have something in common, but one is still the odd one out.

    The short bathrobe from GF and OHMSS comes to mind. Right direction?

    GF a game between Bond and the villain
    OHMSS casino game between Bond and citizens
    TSWLM no games in the movie

    Therefore TSWLM is OOO.

    Nothing to do with clothing or games - I always enjoy the curling match in OHMSS!

    Remember you need to find something that happens in all three films, and once you identify it then one should stand out as the OOO.

    GF, OHMSS, TSWLM

    Something to do with Bond.

    I’ll give it a day or so to think then drop another hint.

    GF Bond beds Jill fails to protect her
    OHMSS Bond beds Tracy and fails to protect her
    TSWLM Bond beds Anya and protects her.

    Therefore TSWLM is OOO has he protects the woman he beds
