THUNDERBALL
Connery looks great in this one.
One of my favorite PTS openings.
When I first saw this one on The ABC Sunday Night Movie, the gun-barrel was removed and most of the fight with Bob Simmons
The Jet Pack stunt seems a precursor to the more elaborate openings that would follow in the Roger years.
The great Tom Jones.
I actually prefer this to Mr Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.
Wonderful title sequence.
One of my cats happens to be sitting on my lap as I watch this Blofeld scene.
I need a Spectre ring. Vanity has it's dangers.
The audio levels are all over the place on this Blu-ray. The bit where the Spectre agent is electrocuted was astonishingly loud on my TV set.
I love the Shrublands scenes.
The grape moment is pure classic Bond.
Here we go.............. one of the funniest scenes in Bond history, the rack.
Nice to have met you, Mr Bond
Hey what the Hell?
HEY!!!!
HEY!!!!
HELP!!!!
HELP!!!!!!!!!!
HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The little bit here with Patricia Fearing was always cut on ABC.
I always post this comment every time I watch this one
so here goes:
Paul Stassino is my favorite actor. Great in so many SAINT episodes with Sir Roger.
However, I need more long sleeved polos.
Doesn't quite have the same effect with a black turtle neck and the final result is laughable.
Still, I've been doing this for years.
Bond slaughters his opponent with a telephone, then immediately turns his attention to the lovely lady inquiring what's going on.
Connery plays this superbly.
When I was a kid I found this section boring.
I enjoy it far more now.
Thus Connery feels epic without being over the top.
M has Bond's back when Captain Pritchard doubts him.
Ah, Domino. My fave Bond girl of all time.
Apparently, this location where Bond and Domino lunch on some tasty conch chowder has now been demolished. Pity.
Bond dances twice in this film.
Never realized that before.
You only dance twice, Mr. Bond.
The English girl Connery picks up quickly for a dance is gorgeous. Fiona should have waited a minute before she cut in...
Errands and chores complete and now time for some Bond
SKYFALL
Moneypenny shaving Bond the old school way. I love that Bond remains old school while the world changes around him.
Bond adjourns to the casino.
Thomas Newman's score I find quite wonderful here. Considering the backlash Newman gets on the forums, I always liked his score for this film.
My favorite Craig reading of "Bond, James Bond", although the CR scene comes close.
A little soap here, a little soap there.
DRAT! I dropped the soap.
THAT is not he soap.
Ha ha OHHHH!
This sparks what will become a new tradition in the series: one Bond scene, an MI6 scene, Bond scene, MI6 scene, etc etc
Okay, now it's Bond's turn.
The Henry Silva introduction
Oops, Raoul Silva.
Henry Silva would have probably made an excellent Bond villain at some point.
This may be one of my favorite villain introductions in the series.
Bavier is amazing.
This scene is still hilarious.
Hard to watch this scene without remembering the audience laughter throughout.
I saw this film 5 times in the cinema.
Pity there wasn't a Blu-ray released that included the IMAX version aspect ratio.
I'd love to see that version again.
Poor Severine.
The way the sun light hits Craig's head in this scene makes his haircut look pretty bad actually. In some scenes I think it looks great.
Otherwise I fail to see too many similarities between SF and TDK trilogy.
I should perhaps revisit those films, though. I missed the third one. Apparently there's some great Bond homages.
Q's reaction is classic.
The subway section is one of my favorite scenes in the series.
This is a lot of fun.
I absolutely love this sequence.
Craig and Wishaw have excellent Bond/Q chemistry.
This scene makes me glad I left my hometown metropolitan city for a more rural quiet environment.
In this scene I think Craig's haircut looks quite good.
Reminds me of Jack Webb's Joe Friday haircut during the '60's episodes of DRAGNET.
I remember my friend saying it was during this sequence he knew M was going to be killed off in the end. I knew ahead of time thanks to reading the forums. Like I'm doing now.
Judi Dench gives an amazing performance in this film.
Another audience cheer moment: the DB5.
Of the four Craig Bonds, this has my favorite action climax.
I know many love the action packed climax in CR, but I really love the isolated location here.
Also the wonderful Albert Finney. I'm still saddened we lost him this year. Reminds me to pop in SCROOGE soon. 'tis the season.
Again, I love scenes where Bond is in the middle of nowhere.
I think his childhood home looks quite cool.
For now I'll just enjoy SF.
M used the "F" word.
One of my favorite scenes in the series where a character swears was Truman-Lodge losing his cool in LTK.
I must ask..............was that the exact same track?
Or did Newman re-record those notes for SP specifically?
Silva makes a bad a$$ entrance. Great villain IMO.
I wonder how Bond plans on getting back? Perhaps Kincaid has a vehicle stashed somewhere? I'm thinking 007 probably hiked miles and miles to the nearest town to contact Q.
I love this bit on the frozen lake. The cinematography is excellent. I love the way this scene is lit.
I may go ice fishing this winter. Never done it before. I'd be thinking of this scene the whole time.
I also love the old chapel and cemetery. The atmosphere on this film is superb.
Also it's timed just right and doesn't linger too long.
Ah, the classic classic office setting. Missed since the John Glen era.
More darkly lit here, though.
Great ending.
I still think the gunbarrel should have opened this film......................but not THAT gunbarrel.
The poster artwork's GB would have looked pretty cool in motion, I imagine.
Great Bond film, and back to being my fave Craig entry,
That was a blast.
DR. NO
A go-to Connery film for me. One I never , ever, ever tire of.
Besides, the NTTD hype s making me want to see Bond in Jamaica.
Strangways is quite dashing and suave.
I've always loved Ted Moore's work on this film. Vibrant and colorful.
The levels on the mono track are , like the TB Blu-ray all over the place.
Certain sounds are extremely loud. Strangways' secretary, as she screams practically shatters my windows.
I love it!
My favorite car chase in the series: three blind mice vs Bond.
Connery has the greatest facial expressions here.
The back projection is wonderful.
Forever ingrained in my top 10, and never to leave.
Can’t beat OHMSS for a December / Christmas Bond film. Hard to beat in general any day! Been willing myself to not watch any until next year for a Bondathon up to NTTD.
I did not know that! Must look out for her next time i watch it.
