Love this set

ToTheRight

M is particularly crabby in this one.

Interestingly, while I don't find TMWTGG to be one of Barry's better scores, the score to the boat ride to the RMS Queen Elizabeth is on my old "best of Bond" mix tape. I really like it.

I have Let's Go Get Em on my playlist from this film, great track.

Fire_and_Ice_Returns

I tend to opt for Low fat

Fire_and_Ice_Returns

Quite a few times in this film a person is pretending to be a manniquin

ToTheRight

Chew Me.

Dwayne

Potentially unpopular opinion:

While Soon-Tek Oh (Hip) may come across as a poor man's version of YOLT's "Tiger" I think a lot of that comes down to the writing IMO. On the face of it, the character is interesting.

With all the hoohaa over the name Pussy Galore, how they get away with Chew Me!??😅

Fire_and_Ice_Returns

I can't help think of Austin Powers every time Bond meets Chew Mee

I like the white dinner jacket for this film.

The scene with the Sumos is rather cringey! In a bizarre setting

Fire_and_Ice_Returns

The impact of the punches in that seen seem very weak.

Not crazy about the bow tie.
Looks like one of Chris Lees Dracula bats has attached himself to him!

Fire_and_Ice_Returns

Time for Bond to be put in an easily escapable situation by a villain.

Dwayne

The middle third of TMWTGG is where the film sags for me.

Hahahaha!

Fire_and_Ice_Returns

Compared with YOLT the fight choreography is poor in TMWTGG.

Fire_and_Ice_Returns

Sword fight is OK I guess.

Fire_and_Ice_Returns

I like it when Bond just kicks this guy in the face, no messing about.

ToTheRight

I love the Chula fight.

Bit like Indiana Jones shooting the guy before the intended duel in Raiders!

Fire_and_Ice_Returns

This is one of the weakest movies Sir Roger elevates the film for me.

Dwayne

Chula is played by Yao Lin Chen.


Ah, the Kung-Fu craze of the mid 1970s!
" everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning."

ToTheRight

Hip has some great facial expressions.

Fire_and_Ice_Returns

It does feel lazy.

Mathis1

The car driving off without Bond is highly stupid

Fire_and_Ice_Returns

It rehashes elements from other films that were done far better previously.

Dwayne

Kill Bill (part 0).
