That's a great line on multiple levels. A bit of taking the piss on the smarmy Bond, James Bond introductions. And fortunately they didn't go the route of some random nightclub owner knowing who James Bond is.
"How do you kill 5 hours in Rio of you don't Samba?"
I will definitely use it if I go there.
Yes, also this:
"Take good care of Mr. Bond. See that some harm comes to him."
Yep, I love it and the delivery is brilliant. Makes me chuckle every time.
Ah yes, how could I forget that one. Excellent line.
F. Murray Abraham would be very surprised to hear he is dead.
In Rio, there is this scene when Jaws is walking towards the camera from afar in this long and narrow street to get Manuela.
His interaction with poor Manuela is gripping and intense, especially because there is no word spoken between them. One of my favourite scenes of the franchise.
Well, here's to us
Take care of yourself
Some choice ones would be :
Hugo Drax: Mr. Bond, you persist in defying my efforts to provide an amusing death for you.
[Bond and Drax are shooting pheasants]
Hugo Drax: You missed, Mr. Bond.
[a sniper falls from a tree]
James Bond: Did I?
Hugo Drax: Look after Mr. Bond. See that some harm comes to him.
Dr. Holly Goodhead: You know him?
James Bond: Not socially. His name's Jaws, he kills people.
[Bond dangles from a cable car a thousand feet up]
Dr. Holly Goodhead: Hang on, James!
James Bond: The thought had occurred to me.
Miss Moneypenny: James! But, why are you so late?
James Bond: I fell out of an airplane without a parachute. Who's in there?
Miss Moneypenny: Q and the Minister of Defense.
James Bond: You don't believe me do you?
Miss Moneypenny: No. And you should go right in.
Hugo Drax: Frederick Gray! What a surprise. And in distinguished company, all wearing gas masks. You must excuse me, gentlemen, not being English, I sometimes find your sense of humor rather difficult to follow!
Dr. Holly Goodhead: Come on, Mr. Bond. A 70-year-old can take 3 G's.
James Bond: Well, the trouble is there's never a 70-year-old around when you need one.
And of course...
Sir Frederick Gray, Minister of Defence: My God, what's Bond doing?
Q: I think he's attempting re-entry, sir.
And with that, let's move onto For Your Eyes Only
James Bond: Yes. Well, you get your clothes on... and I'll buy you an ice cream.
Always makes me laugh.
For a more intense line, I liked Bond saying "You left this with Ferrara, I believe" to Locque. The line itself is hardly intimidating, but Moore completely sells it with an understated menace.
"You left this with Ferrara I believe."
"That's putting it mildly 007."
"And one woman."
The worst line:
"I'll buy you a delicatessen! In stainless steel!"
ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
The stainless steel delicatessen is so bad BECAUSE of the fact that we have no idea what it really means. It was an in-joke, Cubby Broccoli putting the needle to Kevin McClory.
Quite right about putting quotes into context. It is the same with many quotes.
I think the whole FYEO PTS was an in-joke, really a big middle finger to McClory.
Melina: I don't expect you to understand, you're English, but I'm half Greek and Greek women like Elektra always avenge their loved ones.
That's detente, comrade; You don't have it, I don't have it.
Bond: A nose, Q, not a banana.
"Courage is no match for an unfriendly shoe, Countess...."
"I'm a good judge of man. You have what the Greeks call thrausos - guts!"
Yet another quote laden film. A few choice picks would be...
Bibi: Him? He thinks I'm still a virgin.
James Bond: Yes. Well, you get your clothes on... and I'll buy you an ice cream.
James Bond: If I don't report in by tomorrow, not only will my people, but the entire Greek police, will come down on you like a load of bricks.
Columbo: By tomorrow, we'll be good friends. Let us drink to that.
James Bond: I'll wait until tomorrow.
Columbo: I'm here, Mr. Bond of the British Secret Service. But I'll tell you it is Kristatos you want, NOT me. He told you about himself. He's the one with the powerful connections. Locque works for him, not me. I smuggle, yes. I smuggle gold, diamonds, cigarettes, pistachio nuts... but no heroin.
Melina: I didn't think it would end like this.
James Bond: We're not dead yet. Hold tight.
James Bond: Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.
Q: That's putting it mildly, 007!
And with that, let's move on to Octopussy
"And that's for 009."
Yep. So politically incorrect these days it always raises a chuckle.
Also:
"You have a nasty habit of surviving"
"That's my little octopussy"
"and what have you learned?... Well my back hand has improved"
etc...
Indians eat curry = fact. Saying 'Roast Beef' to an Englishman would be seen totally acceptable, and this is the same.
- No ma'am I'm with the economy tour.
Double six, fancy that.
"Mister Bond is indeed a very rare breed"
"And it doesn't give a damn to you I suppose that thousands of innocent people will be killed, in that accident of yours"
"But tomorrow, I shall be a hero of the Soviet Union"
"You left me to be killed, along with thousands of innocent people"
"Octopussy...Octopussy"
"He'll kill us all, go out, and get him"
"Out There?"
"Go!"
