Felix Leiter was the same from 73's Live and let die, and I think I prefered the second time around
Anyone who had the original License to Kill on VHS release couldn't help but notice some significant parts had been cut out, Sanchez whipping Lamora, the Shark attack on Leiter trimmed down, Dario in the cocaine grinder, and Sanchez being torched at the end by several seconds
I bought the uncut version on DVD a few years ago and it was only right they showed the film has it should be, 15 certificate is was when released, then they went to 12 ever since, although Goldeneye is a 15 on DVD apparently.
strange really as it's almost identical to the '12' VHS release I first had back in '96
That said, it would take very little for this lady to be wooed by one Mr. Dalton.
If he is flirtatious in real life then yeah, it's a shame we didn't see that.
@jinx Your statements regarding the ferris wheel scene and it's being anything akin to rape is ludicrous. You must know this...
They just kissed, for goodness sake. Kara seemed to be quite a willing participant, as well.... I would be, too, were I her *ahem*
He's wearing a tux, they've been to the opera, they obviously enjoy each others company and Bond feels the Bonds (no pun intended) of a relationship or the possibility. The fact that she doesn't reject him and that he doesn't force himself on her only cements this as being nothing more than a romance.
You really need to grow up Jinx.
I actually agree with you that the ending of LTK was too happy for me and not in keeping with the story. But how you connect this small instance with the rest of the movie and the completely unrelated TLD shows everyone how immature your thought processes are. Just saying you didn't like the ending was enough to make your point.
Funny how it's OK for you to bash what you don't like, but no one can come back at you for it. Your response to Shadow was rude. Hopefully the mods can straighten you out because you, as usual, don't care to take anything seriously anything that grown ups twice your age are saying in an effort to help you get along better with people. We are all here because we LOVE the Bond movies, and I think that you would be better off to join the DCINB club and go away.
the winking fish was a bit cringeworthy and the ending credits seemed a bit Lethal Weapon 2
it's arguably the most brutal bond offering, and would anyone really leave their passport and entire luggage at the arrivals desk and run off like Dalton did on hearing some news that didn't necessarily suggest it had anything to do with what went before
after all the camp nonsense that went before, especially with Moore, it was probably a shock to most when the movie was released to see sharks biting off legs, exploding heads and heavier profanities, but it did have it's moments, Dalton was OK
LTK is a bit of a mess in places like the laser from the camera :) and too many bad american actors.
Daylights is a very technical film, a good teaser in Gibraltar, A-HA did OK with the music, and the scenes around Central Europe were quite fun even if they did drag at times, Whitaker's hideout in Morocco scenes were non eventful and once they got out into the Afghan desert things picked up a bit, Maryam D'abo was a pretty colorless bond girl and Koskov was more hilarious than anything else, same with Joe Don Baker, but it's my preference over the one that followed
got to mention while I'm at it, earlier today I watched Live and Let Die and there was a bit near the end when Leiter (David Hedison) warns Bond to 'look out for sharks'
I did find that rather amusing when thinking ahead to him in License To Kill some 16 years later with Sanchez and Co' at 'feeding time' :-))
It's only a movie and no one did get hurt, but even so..
