Zao: "It appears we are equal... in the eyes of spies."
James Bond: "Equal... but not even."
I quite like it, but was it from a deleted scene, perhaps a line from a trailer that didn't make the finished product?
How did TMWTGG end up performing so poorly at the box office? Were movie critics as popular now as they were then? Was it just word of mouth? LALD made $161 million and TMWTGG only made 98.
I have changed the two in question:
Group "OTT, fun"
Goldfinger
You Only Live Twice
Diamonds Are Forever
Live And Let Die
The Man With The Golden Gun
The Spy Who Loved Me
Moonraker
Octopussy
A View To A Kill
Tomorrow Never Dies
Die Another Day
Spectre
Group "hard, serious"
Dr. No
From Russia With Love
Thunderball
On Her Majesty's Secret Service
For Your Eyes Only
The Living Daylights
Licence To Kill
GoldenEye
The World Is Not Enough
Casino Royale
Quantum Of Solace
Skyfall
What I find interesting now is that both groups have 12 movies in it. Obviously mainly due to Mr. Moore's more fun and fantastic Bond films.
Still, except for Mr. Dalton and Mr. Lazenby, all the Bond actors have at least one in the OTT fun group.
I am also noticing that the OTT fun films have become much less since 1987. Only three of 10 films since then are there.
Thanks again, now I will be able to do a ranking, two rankings respectively.
Because before I really couldn't rank the films. I seem unable to compare or rank two films like Moonraker and Quantum Of Solace for instance.
I can see on this forum, that rankings are hugely popular. I like to participate in doing some lists in the respective threads.
In addition I can tell you that I have seen all the Bond films in a seemingly random order when they were shown to me in winter/spring 2017.
But when I look at the order I have seen them then it's 11 from the OTT fun group I've seen before seeing any of the hard+serious group except for Thunderball which I've seen as 6th film.
Yes, that certainly is an interesting way of watching the Bond films, @Birdleson. I may have to try that some time.
I remember tweaking the color settings on my TV for the finale of YOLT when you and I were watching it one time, I just never went past that and applied it to all the films. Maybe when I get the interest for another Bondathon, I'll do a regular one then follow it up with that eventually.
There is one in the works by @0BradyM0Bondfanatic7.
I don't have time anymore for forum-wide things like that, unfortunately. If I did it, it'd be something I'd have to knock out in a weekend.
Oh, sorry. I thought it was going ahead.
With DAD, intelligent exchanges had no place in the final product.
Oh please. You know the likes of "Yo mama" and "I don't like cockfights" were secretly included into the script by some of the world's greatest scholars.
Still, I agree here, it doesn't bother me. If I were to defend the line, Jinx is just saying whatever to prolong the interrogation, and because she knows she'll be killed afterwards.
Could you create one yourself?
I would, but I don't have the PC version anymore. It didn't run on my old computer, so I returned it. I only have the PS3 version now.
In this scene, Bond Jr. seem to run for escape a combine harvester driven by Baron Von Skaron (?). Impossible to find a trace of it in the show (even knowing that the title sequence take is pictures from 3 episodes : The Eiffel missile, Earthcracker and Live and Let's Dance).
So, do somebody know what is this scene ? Where it's come from ? Could it be it's a possible deleted scene or an unaired episode ?
Because she needed Bond to think Scaramanga sent it.
She wanted him dead,and knew Bond would go after him and kill him before Scaramanga kills him.
Bond was her weapon .
That's it! And I can see the cheque in a photo, though I think there may have a been a clearer picture of it available in the past. Many thanks, @QBranch
Yeah, but she had everything to lose by not immediately getting protected. And Bond would at the very least gain intel on Scaramanga by finding him.
