    Jonathan Pryce is great in this. Megalomaniac, psychotic and insane.

    Love the way this moves so fast. Even Bond's briefing is done in a moving car!

    Brosnan much better in this than GE.

    The Q scene is below par. Boring BMW.

    Love the scene when Bond meets Carver. Bond can barely hide is contempt for Carver.

    I don't understand all the hate for the 750. If anything, it's the most realistic Q-branch car he's ever had, a banker in germany in a flagship executive sedan...

    Jack Wade....ugh. Pierce Brosnan does not suit the naval uniform.

    This is James Bond. I don't want him in a boring realistic car...

    I noticed Gerard Butler pops up in this as a crew member on the Devonshire.

    Just watching DAF and the lift fight wz Peter Franks gets better wz every watch,it really is brutal being in a confined and moving space.
    I think it is seriously underrated in the Bond world re personal fights such as FRWL vs Grant,SP vs Hinx,TB vs Bouvar,QOS vs Slate,GE vs Trevelyn.

    Popped the cork on a bottle of wine and it's time for the greatest Bond film ever made....Goldfinger

    Class gunbarrel and we're off. Connery is cooler than cool in this. This film is James Bond. Confident in it's own abilities and it's what the word 'iconic' was invented for....

    Great comments on GF, @LeonardPine.

    I have a very difficult time letting any other film take my number one spot.

    Hard to believe it's been nearly 3 weeks since I last watched a Bond.


    So here we go:

    DR. NO

    Classic titles.

    My commenting may be interrupted a bit here, unfortunately.

    Very much looking forward to the new film now. Jamaica is my favorite Bond location. I should visit someday.

    Strangways is quite dashing and suave,


    Strangway's secretary. Very nice, indeed.

    Connery's introduction is a classic landmark of cinema. The guy sitting on Sylvia's left looks very confused.

    Sylvia, I find a bit underrated. She's a great Bond girl, IMO. Eunice Gayson was wonderful. Excellent in THE REVENGE OF FRANKENSTEIN.


    Bond is called into work at 3:00 am. Moneypenny is also going a graveyard shift as well.
    I worked a graveyard shift last night and had to stay an extra hour thanks to the daylight savings time change.

    I love scenes where characters are awake in the middle of the night when they should be in bed.

    This film has plenty of that.

    Bond is issued a PPK and told off by M and Boothroyd.

    I love Bond's flat. Whenever I get to this scene I'm reminded of the summer as I entered high school. My folks had bought a house with my grandmother. Very old house, and I had my choice of bedroom. There was one with a similar shade of green wall paint as Bond's here. Kind of looked like his flat, I thought. That was my original choice. However, the very day we moved, my grandmother suggested I take the larger room on the other end of the hall, and she took the "Bond's flat" room.
    She helped my decorate my room like Bond might have it. Bought me a roll top desk at one point, book shelves like M's office and so forth. I'd come home from school some days and discover she had bought some Bondian sports jackets and blazers for me.
    She'd find cool things in used furniture stores and antique shops.

    Bond in Jamaica investigating Strangway's office. I always loved these scenes where Bond is doing some detective work. Great stuff.

    When I was a kid I always liked the scenes in Bond's hotel suites.


    Here we go..........007 placing the hair on his closet door. That's quite a long strand of hair Bond has there. I should grow mine long on the top like that again. Apply the Brylcreem. I don't think Craig could pull this scene off.

    Bond, Felix, and Quarrel partying hard at Puss-Feller's club.

    Jump Up is my all time favorite song.

    Jack Lord is astonishingly cool as Felix.

    Puss-Feller is quite suave as well. His white dinner jacket reminds me of Bogie's in CASABLANCA.

    Bond and Dr No duke it out. SHUT DOWN!!!!!

    I love the climax of this film. The dinner scene, the heating vent, Bond's beating, the No fight. Great stuff.

    Where is the girl they brought in with me?
    Where is she?

    Bond knocks out a lot of people here to get to Honey.

    I do wish NTTD would end with 007 and his leading lady on a boat of dingy.

    I don't think that's going to happen though.

    Damn.

    Connery's Bond gets laid at the end of his films.

    Craig's Bond does not.

    This is interesting..............

    the film ends with the gunbarrel image.

    The only Bond film I approve of doing so.

    Excellent viewing of DR NO.
