    Great guess and probably correct, but not what i am looking for!

    DN
    TMWTGG
    LTK

    Not about smoking or casinos
    Nothing to do with female characters
    Time is not involved or watches

    Going different this time around.....

    Focusing on the villains.....

    Both the villains of TMWTGG and LTK had a mistresses or girlfriends, DN is the odd one out since Doctor No himself had no mistress or girlfriend, it's just him alone?

    Another solid guess! However the OOO is less than romantic! LOL!

    DN
    TMWTGG
    LTK

    Not concerning casinos or smoking
    The villainesses play no role here
    Time is not on your side as no watch is featured
    The girlfriends or mistresses don't feature in the answer either.

    A small clue is, the OOO isn't alone, most of the Bond films have this featured in them!

    In DN and LTK someone is killed by fire while Kra is killed in an almost opposite way (landing in the cold "water".)

    Great guess @goldenswissroyale but sadly I have to cool off that one! See what I did there!

    I am trying to come up with another clue that won't give it all away too easily. Next guess, if they are incorrect I shall give a clue.

    Remember the OOO isn't alone, most of the Bond films have this characteristic.

    DN - Bond drives a car.
    TMWTGG - Bond drives a car.
    LTK - Bond drives a truck!

    Okay of all the guesses @RichardTheBruce has been the closest! Right OOO but not a truck!

    Yes!

    Okay, now.....

    DN - Normal mission
    TMWTGG - Normal mission
    LTK - Bond went rogue, personal vendetta

    Is it to do with helicopters?
    DN and TMWTGG are the only two films not to feature a helicopter in some capacity. But LTK does. Therefore LTK is the OOO?

    Good try @MI6HQ I hadn't thought of that before.

    We have a winner folks! @Benny comes in with the correct answer! You are correct, no helicopters in either DN or TMWTGG, I am pretty sure all other films had them and of course LTK it features prominently in the PTS!

    Over to you sir!

    Nice one, Benny. I was thinking dragon tanks, dragon gardens and iguanas.

    I'm gonna take a premature guess and say OP is the odd one out because it's the best one.

    Sorry for the delay. Let’s go with a nice easy one.

    YOLT
    TSWLM
    OP

    Which is the odd one out and why?

    OP not directed by Lewis Gilbert?

    Sorry gents, both good.
    But not correct.

    YOLT - the only PTS where Bond doesn't kill anyone?

    YOLT as OOO: title song "You Only Live Twice" is film title.

    OP as OOO: the villain doesn't kill any of his henchman.

    Still nothing I’m afraid.
    Keep guessing.

    TSWLM - the only one not scored by John Barry?

    OP as OOO - The villain had no lair?

    Whereas YOLT and TSWLM both have villain lairs (The volcano and the Atlantis).

    Still nothing. I’ll wait for a few more guesses before I give a clue.

    OP - the only one to not release in a year that ends with the number "7?"

    YOLT: no Union Jack flag seen while Bond is in the air.

    Oh, I thought this was going to be easier.
    Clue 1. This is something concerning Bond.

    It can't be as simple as: YOLT, the only one where Connery plays Bond versus Moore in the other two?

    All three used Fleming titles that bare little relationship to the actual original content, except that OP is a short story and the other two are novels?

    OP is OOO

    Both YOLT and TSWLM have both Bond wore a Naval Commander uniforms/battle dress and referred to as Commander.
