;))
Nope. Never gone although I've always wanted to. Not much to see under the east river.
I was always under the impression that the point of a scuba mask is to keep water out of your eyes. Even if Connery were The Flash he couldn't swap masks fast enough to avoid water getting in.
1) Sean Connery was ether bored out of his mind making this film or there was a deleted subplot involving Bond battling clinical depression.
2) The best way to convince Bond's enemies that he is dead is to come up with a fake death scenario that no one important actually witnesses.
3) MI6 will risk drowning it's best agent by actually burying him at sea instead of burying a weighted coffin and simply having Bond already on the sub.
4) Bond is either deeply ashamed of or has repressed his memories of the "interesting experience" he and M shared in Tokyo as he tells Hedison he has never been to Japan.
5) The large Japanese hit-man cannot tell the difference between his fellow Japanese partner and a 6'2 burly British man even when he is carrying him provided said Brit is wearing a hat and a small surgical mask.
6) In Japan a group of women can be a man's "possessions".
7) Moneypenny's affections for Bond are such common knowledge that even the Japanese secret service is well aware.
8) Tiger will arrange for a separate helicopter complete with a cameraman to film the "drop in the ocean" just so Bond and Aki could have a better look.
9) Disguising yourself as a Japanese fisherman and cosplaying as Spock are apparently the same thing.
10) Bond's Japanese disguise will completely vanish once it comes into contact with water.
11) During the attack on his base, Blofeld keeps a much cooler demeanor than his poor cat.
12) When approaching a large German henchman carrying the key you need the best course of action is to slowly walk up to him and let him punch you.
14) Bond knows his local drinks as no other
15) Japanese firms will kill american tourists to prevent anyone noticing they emptied a cargo ship.
16) Helga Brandt thinks it's far better to get herself out of a plane to kill Bond, instead of tying him up and dropping him out of a perfectly fine aeroplane.
17. Dr. Evil's first appearance was not in the Austin Powers movies.
18. Cigarettes are very bad for your chest, but can actually save your life.
19. It's unadvisable to swim with piranhas
20. It's preferable to have chest hair
21. It's possible for grown men to love each other without being related or gay
22. It's difficult to disguise a 6 ft 2 in Scottish male as a Japanese fisherman
But then Connery didn't find Japanese women attractive so maybe he wasn't trying too hard? :))
8. Blofeld is able to change in size.
9. Being James Bond and being Japanese don't mix
10. Bond has a photographic memory.
Or Skyfall. ;)
30) Cats don't fancy loud explosions.
31) Your face will go completely blank after being stabbed in the back. Is that a poison tipped knife?
32) It's obvious that Connery doesn't really care anymore. I'll be damned if I still don't like him though.
33) Blofeld underestimated the ninja's ability of concealment in a country full of them. Mind you, this was after he sent two ninja assassins to eliminate Bond.
34) Japan is so stunningly beautiful that I don't even mind the film being a travelogue at times.
35) My favorite moment occurs after Bond is ejected from the submarine. He arrives on the shore and turns to look at the setting sun. It's always seemed like something out of Fleming to me. A man, solitaire, left to his own devices and just taking in the beauty of the moment before he must fulfill his dark obligations.
37. Lox is not only delicious but also shorthand for liquid oxygen.
38. Bond only enjoys oysters for their—err—"medicinal" properties.
39. Tiger's secret service has closed-circuit cameras EVERYWHERE.
40. Dare I state the obvious: You only live twice.
41. If you're intent on initiating World War Three, don't build an exploder button into your control room.
42. Piranhas make more useful pets than Siamese fighting fish.
43. What to do on your honeymoon.
44. Bird never make nest in bare tree.
What We've Learned from…..On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
1) George Lazenby might not be Lawrence Olivier but he can rock the hell out of a fight scene.
2) Q was doing some serious slacking in 1969. "Radioactive Lint and an impractically big safecracker. Not exactly Christmas is it"?.
3) Tracy will faint over a stranger grabbing her from behind but will perfectly maintain her composer while being hunted, shot at, kidnapped, and chased by an avalanche.
4) Bond's Aston Martin has special Q-Branch tires that screech on sand.
5) Orange and Beige clothes never match well.
6) Bond is a very talkative back-seat passenger.
7) The best way to treat your suicidal daughter is to fix her up with a hard-drinking, womanizing, playboy spy who lives everyday of his life as if it were his last.
8) Q-Branch only invented one pocket-sized safecracker that works in a matter of seconds rather than nearly an hour. I guess 008 had it that day.
9) Blofeld somehow went from a 5'6 stubby European man to a 6 foot burly American.
10) Bond not only has nothing against using the same pick-up line twice in one night, he encourages it.
11) Blofeld is a mastermind so perceptive that he is able to pick-up on a minute slip-up to deduce Bond's identity rather than simply recognizing the face of the very man that ruined 4 of his organizations operations in the last 7 years who isn't even wearing a disguise.
12) How Christmas Trees are grown.
13) When in doubt, go rogue and team up with the mob.
14) MI6 has no problem with one of it's top operatives becoming the son-in-law of one of the biggest crime lords in all of Europe.
15) Peter Hunt is a criminally underrated director.
The underwater trick is to tilt your mask up and breathe out with your nose. This gets rid of all water in your mask.
45. Tanaka must have hired a camera crew plane to take shots of the helicopter dropping the car into in the ocean for the car monitor footage.
46. Japanese people are fooled easily by bad disguises (a taller larger Bond in an overcoat in the back of the car and Bond turning Japanese).
47. Animals may well have been harmed in this production. Cats don't like big explosions.
48. Bond talks about retirement fit the first time. Sean was thinking about retiring from Bond too.
49. Mr Osato always has spare statues in case someone destroys his office.
50. Roald Dahl didn't just write children's stories (maybe he should have).
