    FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE is playing in my Blu ray player.
    Bond's meeting with Kerim. Sean at his coolest.

    Bond Theme playing as 007 checks his hotel room. I know a lot of people think it's in-appropriate here, but I love it.

    Bond looks as much Japanese as Morgan Freeman in this bloody film..its not moving upwards on my list at this rate...but the score is so beautiful...reminds me of my girlfriend...

    Bond's disguise in YOLT is pretty laughable. The score is one of my favorites.

    Gypsy camp battle!!!!! 007 Theme blaring! Sean is as tough as ever here.

    Strangely, in the past few years I've enjoyed popping in DAF and NSNA more frequently than YOLT (even though I do love YOLT).
    FRWL is great, though- they've stolen the Lector and are leading up to the train section.

    Well thats YOLT over....not a lot to say really....average,it wont go up or down in my list..the soundtrack and score save this film so so so much....
    Time for FYEO...been a loooooooooooong while.

    I think YOLT is the first Bond film where action really seems to overtake plot.

    Dare i say that i am preferring DAF over YOLT ? could i put YOLT 3rd from bottom on my list ,at #22 and move DAF up a slot ??!!

    I'm so enthralled with FRWL I'm barely commenting. He's just met Grant and we're getting into some good stuff.

    From Russia with Love is the only perfect Bond film.

    I'd probably have to agree with that. Really nothing I'd change in this one.

    Grilled soul. Looks like a fairly simple meal Bond, Tania and Grant are munching on as there seems to be nothing else on the plate other than the fish. Maybe that's why Sean is so lean here: smaller portions.

    I have to admit that the helicopter and stuntwork on the PTS of FYEO is as brilliant as the gunbarrel....and Sheena Easton does a decent job considering she is the only artist to be shown during the opening credits...so far so good..

    Damn you're making me want to watch FYEO now. I may have to pop in FYEO after FRWL.

    One of my least favorite PTS', but I also noted with the last viewing how impressive the stuntwork is.

    Im really making an effort here,and i think this is Rogerbond's most natural spy film of the lot... @TotheRight ....go for it ...the parts i didnt like at the beginning are winning me over i must say...oh shit,here comes Hector Gonzalez...so thats the St Georges sunk and Sir Timothy Havelock dead...not a great moment for us British ..

    Helicopter sequence in FRWL. I dig Sean's hat, love to see Daniel attempt a trilby in B25.

    The Lowery restoration team seems to have CGI'ed out the wires on the helicopter as it crashes.

    Who is THAT rent-a-cast member who is on the ladder as Bond tries to escape from Gonzales' men ? he is in a few more Bonds,just to fall over or die.

    One of my favourite quotes : "Love a drive in the country,dont you ? "...Carole seems to actually genuinely laugh when he says that..was that a Sir Roger ad-lib ,not in the script? think i might have even created a thread on here with that title,a long time ago,wherever that may be.

    I love the Drive in The Country sequence! Great quip by Roger there.

    FRWL is nearly over- Klebb has entered the hotel while James is chatting away on the phone to whomever.

    @barryt007, always wondered that myself, because Carole's laugh is most certainly genuine. Great, light-hearted moment during that sequence.

    It's spontanious isn't it....just no falseness to it at all,she laughs too quick ,its a surprised laugh..


    I'm actually REALLY enjoying this...a brilliant film so far,a real 007 spy film and Sir Roger is on TOP form ..the only thing it misses is a Barry score,but at the moment this film is WAY too low down on my Bond film list,unlike YOLT ,which deserves to be down there,and TND ,which disappointed me too earlier this month.

    The lack of Barry really hurts, mostly because Conti's work is bad and/or forgettable in a lot of spots, sans a few shining moments.

    Absolutely,and considering it has nice moments in long act in snow,as per OHMSS,a lovely Barry score would have been brilliant,and i think Sir Roger deserves it in this compared to bloody MR...

    The only thing that really dates this film is Conti's score...otherwise,i am really enjoying this.

    As much as I love FYEO and Sir Roger...I feel compelled that we must get Sean up to par on the Bond Meter thread so DR NO is going in.
    Classic gunbarrel and Maurice Binder titles!

    Actually Bibi annoys my girlfriend so that's part of the reason DR NO is playing........
