    Good one. New round:
    DAF
    LALD
    MR
    Something common only to these three, with one difference.

    Bond is in water for all three, but only in DAF is it with women. LALD and MR he is in the water with villain or animal (snake)

    Not it. It doesn't have to do with animals.

    A villain (henchman) controls the transportation that Bond is on (heroin winch; cable car), except in DAF it's Bond controlling the transportation the villain is in (Bath-o-sub).

    Nope. Also, I had a momentary mental lapse: animals are involved in one of the scenes, but they aren't the focus of this round.
    Another hint: all three scenes directly involve Bond himself.

    DAF knocked out with an urn
    LALD knocked out with Tee Hee's arm
    MR knocked out by the certrifuge

    MR is OOO has he wasn't knocked out by another object, but by G force

    Still not it but one of them (not necessarily OOO) does involve Bond being knocked out.

    Bumping with another hint: it's a matter of life and death.

    DAF Bond is nearly cremated
    LALD Bond burns a snake
    MR Bond is nearly burned by the shuttle exhaust

    OOO is LALD has the burning is done by Bond and is successful.

    Close. It involves an object that, oddly enough, is rarely seen in the series.

    All three feature coffins (with -briefly- living people in); DAF is the only one where Bond gets in one?

    Winner. Specifically I was thinking, two henchmen die in coffins while Bond survives his. Over to you.

    Lovely! Thank you; that's a really good one, love it. I'm trying to think where else we even see coffins- obviously there's another one prominently featured in LALD, and there's a collection in Skyfall, but might be it? You'd think there would be one or two in the Day of the Dead bit perhaps.

    I'll have a little ponder and come up with one as quick as I can!

    TB begins with the letters JB on a coffin, if I remember it correctly.
    Good round!

    TB (and maybe SP in Rome) saw coffins.

    QOS. Haiti. Remember Mr. Broccoli was a former coffin salesman from his Long Island days.

    Of course. Love how Bond looks at Camille following this shot.

    OHMSS: Not a convenient pocket-sized safe cracker!

    Good guess, but not what I had in mind! Amazing in 10 short years how miniature the cracker got.

    YOLT - Bond flies a rotary wing aircraft.
    OHMSS - Passenger.
    MR - Passenger.

    Another good guess, but not what I am looking for!

    A clue for you, this involves ladies only!

    YOLT - Bond had never sex with any of Tanaka's Japanese Girls.

    MR - Bond never had sex with any of the Amazon Girls.

    OHMSS - Bond had sex with one or two girls in Piz Gloria?

    Something to do with the women having radio transmitters hidden inside their accessories, except Bond handles Holly's 'standard issue CIA' purse.

    Damn my clue was too easy! You are correct!
    • YOLT the Japanese women who observe Bond on his way to the sumo match
    • OHMSS the Angels receive their transmitters from Blofeld disguised as a compact
    • MR Holly's purse is discovered by Bond in Venice!

    Good job @QBranch over to you!

    Giving this a gentle nudge, @QBranch have you thought of a new one yet?
