That brings back a lot of memories. I use to tape all of the Bond films using my old VCR. While many don't rate YOLT, it is always in my top ten - perhaps for the sheer "over the top ness" of it.
Plus Akiko Wakabayashi and Mie Hama.
Plus Ninjas and Volcano Lairs.
Plus.....
Great stuff, @Dwayne. I loved the star tunnel intro on "The ABC Sunday Night Movie". It was an event to watch a Bond film on Sunday nights. My folks let me stay up for it. Great times.
...Mr. Osato believes in a healthy chest.
Really....
(you have to love the way Connery delivers that line)
I remember the 2002 ABC era. They CGI'ed black underwear on Plenty O Toole.
I'm at the scene where Bond marries Kissy and she rejects him on their first night together.
That would suck in real life.
"...This is business..." :))
I love Kissy. Underrated Bond girl, IMO.
Who the hell are you?
Bond got busted.
Donald Pleasence is quite scary here. Personification of evil.
Pleasence's introduction is a series highlight for me. Now be sure to be on the lookout for the crazy kitty cat.
Today the cat would be CGI, like that phony looking lopsided, MGM lion in the beginning of NTTD.
Perfect timing!
According to Taschen's Bond book, that cat actually went missing. Watch for the scene where Blofeld kills Osato.
That's right! He disappears.
I quite like that actually!! :))
When Craig climbs aboard a yellow dingy, he has Felix's cigar instead.
Magnificent viewing of this epic.
I enjoyed every frame.
..advantage....Connery!!!
Kissy has her own fashion sense never following Tiger's trends.
According to Mie the set was freezing cold and (it you look closely) you can see her skin start to turn blue.
I believe it was winter when those scene were shot.
That was great, @Dwayne . It would be nice to do a group watch along sometime. Those are always fun.
LICENCE TO KILL
so I'm watching it. I'm going with the older 1999/2000 SE DVD release.
In spite of an audio glitch towards the end of the film I very much like this release. The U.S. theatrical cut.
I love the PTS. Bond in Florida. Everyone has '80's hair except Sanchez, Felix and Dalton, who has Dalton hair.
Bond dangling from the copter was a lot of fun in the cinema. Aerial stunts in Bond movies always thrilled me. The John Glen films excelled in this type of action.
I had to order it specially from a video store that was very expensive to rent from. .
The store owner thought I was insane for wanting this Bond film.
"So is this a film you actually want?" was his reply when I asked him to order it for me.
I remember being slightly disappointed the titles were in pan and scan. The previous 2 films were released with scope titles and many of the newer re-issues of the bonds on VHS had widescreen titles.
He we go.............the Leiter torture scene.
Sanchez is great. Davi has classic quality about him. I could see him in a Cagney or Bogart film from the 1930's and he would fit right in.
Krest has an amazing jacket. They're all wearing windbreakers. I don't ever remember jacket weather when I was in Florida.
We don't see the bloody stump in this version.
