    This would be a much better film without Jaws

    Plumbing the depths. Bond dressed as Clint Eastwood and the Magnificent 7 theme...

    Some nice explosions during the boat chase.

    Barry uses the 007 theme again.

    Quite like the Python scene. Atmospheric set and more great music from Barry.

    Those Shuttle take off effects still hold up today. Wonderful stuff...

    Journey into space. A beautifully shot sequence complimented by Barry's gorgeous music!

    Chasing the Globes. A good tense sequence. 'Use the force, James..' 😁

    Good comments, mate!

    It's amazing, Meddings and his team deployed effects with the simplest of ideas ( salt trailing out of the model shuttle!) Using a shotgun to blast them for the destructive finale!

    That's correct mate. So innovative. It's a testament to the incredible talents of Meddings and his crew that the effects still look fantastic all these years later.

    It's Boxing day, so it has to be Moonraker

    PTS has some impressive stunt work and editing. Spoiled slightly by the buffoonery from Jaws...

    First time I saw Moonraker was on Boxing Day ( or St. Stephens Day as we call it!) Its premiere on TV. Always enjoy it, aside from the silliness and Jaws!!

    Same here I think. It's a real Christmas holiday Bond movie 😁
