Little Things in Bond Movies you Didn't Notice Before!
Does the title basically provide an accurate description? If not, what I mean is, haven't you noticed that when you re-watch a Bond movie after having seen it many times before, there is always something small that you take notice of, which you hadn't realized before? For instance, today I was watching LALD, and I saw something I didn't recognize before! When Bond arrives at his "Bungalow 12" hotel room, he goes to the closet and sees "Mrs. Bond's" clothes, finds a pink dress of hers, and hilariously sniffs it, giving a classic RogerBrow raise of approval!

I have a sinking feeling that when I finally notice this, I'm never going to unsee it.
Its gonna be hard to not notice it since you can clearly see it floppin around in the water .
* walks way laughing*
You seem pretty cocksure about this?
I think he just cocked up my viewing pleasure.
One thing I never noticed before was that there are nipple shots in OHMSS, DAF, and FYEO... I can't believe they got away with a PG rating back then. :))
Airplane! and Airplane! 2: The Sequel - both PG13, both have full frontal bare breast shots.
I don't often find things I've missed in Bond films anymore, having seen them many many times. But that's not to say they don't happen.
One of the things I like to look for are crew or cameras/equipment getting into shot, extras over acting or standing out for some reason, or goofs / plotholes.
I've learned something new: Natalia is in FRWL? /:)
And like my good colleague @Benny, I'd strongly recommend our members to stay away from the naughty stuff. Granted, in the right hands such things can be fun and whatnot and we can all have a few good laughs, but they also tend to attract the wrong participants...
Anyway, there's little I have yet to discover from watching the films I think, with perhaps QoS and SF as understandable exceptions. I continue to learn new things from reading about the films though. Cinematography and such, perhaps. Little errors, like @Benny mentioned, true. Those kind of things maybe.
Sorry about the quality of this video.
I love the guy with the dark suit, slick hair and moustache, stood behind the drunk in this scene.
The fist into the air is some quality acting. Around 1:52.
A little later in the fire truck scene, the camera crew platform can be clearly seen as the fire engine smashes the fuel sign over at the service station. From 5:05
Ghostbusters has one of those guys too, during the scene when Ecto-1 drives to Dana's building for the climax! What is it with crowd scenes- there's always one of the extras who must think he's the star! 8-}
To see these Bond films in that theatre - that I had seen so many times that they were cemented in my memory - was a revelation. The level of detail was incredible and I was able to notice little details in the scenery that I could never see before. I can't remember any specific detail off the top of my head but GF was the first one that I saw there and it was like seeing it again for the first time - and it was the film that I had seen the most in my life!
I do remember an old roommate laughing about a stencil on the nuclear missles in TB - "handle like eggs". He'd never been able to read that watching the film on TV or VHS on his small TV when he was younger.
Maybe Connery found belly dancing a funny concept and couldnt hold his laughter in for that one shot. Or he decided to have a little fun with the scene after having to wear lipstick for the pre title sequence.
On a related note, it was very odd that Bond showed no interest with the belly dancer when she briefly gave him a lapdance in FRWL. She was all over him and yet his expression was like " Boring...."
To me it was like "I have no time for this at the moment..." :))
I've never tried to pick out Maud Adams as an extra in the crowd during View to a Kill, even though it's well documented she makes an appearance or two
Next time you watch Moonraker, during the pre credits sequence, and the girl tells Moore - 'You're so right Mr Bond', and pulls out a pistol, watch Bond's face. I know Moore's Bond was a little phlegmatic sometimes, but it's ridiculous. Probably Moore's biggest humor appearance of the seven though, so maybe we can look above anything that occured that year
On the opposite, I found he tries to hide his interest and avoids being disrespectful.
TLD you can see a nude sideboob
The one in DAF doesn't count as its so brief. Its like the boob shot of Electra in TWINE ;)
If you want Brosnan leering look at DAD. Its funny how sleazy he is :))
