I also noticed that Drax's henchman listed as Chang on IMDb is actually called Cha in movie. I wonder why they did this. Maybe they didn't want him defined by a Chinese family name and rather let him be a diffuse Asian, especially since the actor is obviously Japanese.
It took me plenty of viewings as a kid before it finally dawned on me years later that all of Drax's female companions appear during the finale. It's so obvious, not sure how it took that long for it to click for me (and you too apparently).
And yes, I'd say MR is probably the installment with the most positive growth for me over the years. I used to find it overly cheesy and underwhelming but it's really grown on me in the last 5-10 years and I have a really, really great time with it now on every viewing.
I think so, I also thought that was what was going on there
I think so, and their plan is to go "Home" (Madeleine's home) after Matera as Madeleine says, so I imagine her original plan was to tell him when they got there.
All of the Bonds at least rode by train except Dalton's bond, I don't remember Dalton's bond being in trains or even having some train scenes in his films.
Correct me if I'm wrong here.
Closest is the pipeline at the start of TLD I suppose, but certainly not a train. They probably could have replaced the plane at the end of the movie with a train if they really wanted to.
Outliers, Moore is the only Bond to pilot a space shuttle! Connery, a moon buggy! LOL
MOORE fly's planes in TMWTGG and OP.
DALTON fly's planes in both his films.
BROSNAN fly's planes in GE and TND.
CRAIG fly's planes in QOS, SP and NTTD
MOORE fly's a helicopter in FYEO.
BROSNAN fly's a helicopter in DAD
CRAIG fly's a helicopter in SP
CONNERY and LAZENBY never fly a plane.
CONNERY*, LAZENBY and DALTON never fly a helicopter.
*An Autogyro is not a helicopter.
Quentin Quigley business card - project from a few years back.
Connery rides a bike in NSNA if you count it (which personally I don't).
Although I'm a keen biker, motorcycles feel wrong for Bond to me. I think it's because I get irritated at the lack of protective gear. But Connery looks a bit daft in his.
Deleted TLD motorcycling:
Agent names are shown as "Nomi, M" and "Bond, J". I don't know if anyone has found this before, but I was a bit surprised by my discovery.
"You call yourself an AVIS employee, you son of a bitch?"
I don't remember any Bond films ending on this, mostly just shown Bond making love with a woman, but not like LTK where they're really celebrating, there's a gathering that's not connected to a mission.
Maybe OHMSS might also counts in this, as it ends on a celebration/gathering that's not connected to a mission.
But aside from those, I don't remember any Bond films that have those, most celebrations (or parties) were connected to Bond's mission for him to attend because the villain's there.
But only LTK and OHMSS are the only Bond films where the gathering/celebration wasn't connected to any mission or no connection to villains at all.
I'm also thinking of TWINE, as Bond also celebrates Christmas (or New Year) with Christmas Jones after the mission.
I'm about to include TLD, but Bond was absent for the majority of the event.
I just want to see more of that, where after the mission, there would be a gathering or a celebration party that Bond needs to attend just for his own personal sake or they celebrate because the bad guy's dead and the mission is accomplished.
The Connery and Moore (and mostly, the Craig Era) films didn't end on those, they just end with Bond making out with a girl.
I wish they've made this at the AVTAK's ending with M, Q and Moneypenny along with Bond and Stacey celebrating (Party gathering) at the Sutton Mansion then General Gogol would come there to give the medal to Bond himself, and also the Head of California Police District asking an apologize to Bond, as Bond and Stacey move far away from the party and they're going to kiss, it would make a much better ending to me.
