I'm suddenly in the mood for Pierce, so I'm going with
TOMORROW NEVER DIES
The way the gunbarrel dots move all the way to the right of the screen without visibly enlarging reminds me of the VHS pan and scan era.
This was for about 5 years, my least favorite Brosnan film. 5 years later DAD was released.
These days I feel this may be the Brosnan film that holds up best.
Fantastic Arnold score.
Bond looks great in the leather jacket. Pierce's haircut looks terrific as well. I should have grown mine like that during this quarantine.
At risk of sounding repulsive, in some of these close-ups he looks like he has snot coming from his nose. I believe he had a cold at the time. Today that could be CGI-ed out.
Bond's watch X-rayed.
1997 was such a great year. Wish I could go back.
Hopefully the next Bond actor's era gives us more frequent outings and some of the fun brought back.
I like Stamper.
Knock knock.
He could have been a leading man during the golden age of Hollywood.
Finally 007 turns things around.
This is my favorite Brosnan film for fight sequences. Pierce has a few good ones and Wai-Lin's later on is quite entertaining.
Once again as boring as it is to read repeated comments.......................Pierce's hair is spot on in this film. I even like the patterned ties.
The wonderful Wai-Lin.
"They'll print anything these days!"
Today that line might be "They'll post anything these days."
Terrific music score here.
It's a small moment, but showcases the chemistry Pierce had with Yeoh.
I prefer this climax to most of the Craig's.
I think I may prefer this to the sinking Venice building, actually.
I still maintain the opinion the dialogue with Stamper during the fight is unnecessary.
And so ends Brosnan's 2nd outing.
Fun viewing this time.
Cant agree with your analysis this time! That finale on the stealth boat is terrible. So dull! And for those who go on about the slow mo in the pts of LTK, there is worse here with Wai-Lin and her gun toting antics! Always thought the final scene was very abrupt too, maybe they ran out of money? Agree about Kleinmans title sequence though, love the use of x-ray!
A couple hours later and yes it doesn't quite register as one of the great finales. It starts out alright as they sneak aboard the Stealth ship, but the gun toting is a bit much. The dialogue doesn't work. The film still pales in comparison to so many others.
Fun while I was watching it, but dismiss-able afterwards.
Fair enough. I must mention Doctor Kaufman...Vincent Schiavelli steals the movie!
Love the gunbarrel. Barry plays three bars of the melody as per OHMSS. Hamlisch would do the same for the next film.
One of my favorite iris opening establishing shots. James Bond Island. I should go there one day.
Lee has three nipples. If he worked with Elaine on SEINFELD no doubt everyone in the office would call him "Nip".
I love Marc Lawrence.Great in KEY LARGO.
IMO, this is a criminally underrated PTS. I think it's quite excellent. Reminds me of FRWL.
Sesame Street could do an alphabet segment : The letter "L" is brought to you by Sir Christopher Lee.
My favorite theme song.
My favorite title sequence, too. I really love these titles, actually.
Ever the gentleman.
Now it's time to slap Andrea around. I get the impression Sir Roger didn't care for this type of sequence in his Bond era. Had this scene been written for the next film or two he would have charmed the information out of her.
The wonderful Chew Me.
If I had to pick a least favorite haircut on Sir Roger in his Bond films, this is it.
It looks like Bond had turned on the television to catch an episode the THE SAINT playing.
007 thought the actor playing Simon Templar looked so cool, he'd grow his hair out just like his.
TMWTGG is Bond's hair at that uncomfortable in between stage while attempting to grow it out. That said, it still looks great.
@ToTheRight. Having just watched an episode of “The Avengers” that starred Christopher Lee this morning – he really does have a larger than life and commanding screen presence. His presence in TMWTGG almost makes up for the film’s shortcomings (IMO, of course).
Also, thanks for the information on Marc Lawrence. I’ve watched “Key Largo” several times over the years and have never made the connection. Shameful on my part, given that his film career dates back to the 1930’s and he often played “hood” type roles. Even more unforgiveable on my part, is the fact that he was in one of the all-time film-noirs: “The Asphalt Jungle” (1950).
I like Bond island as well and think it is perhaps the best setting of a JB film finale.
Yeah. Marc Lawrence was Ziggy, Edward G Robinson's contact who buys the counterfeit money. I liked him in HOLD THAT GHOST with Abbott and Costello.
Great actor.
Excellent viewing of TMWTGG. Really hit the spot.
