I've never thought about that before. But seeing as how Connery couldn't give a crap about Tracy's death either way, lol Then I guess that order would make more sense.
At least Blofeld and Bond would properly recognize each other now!
Never thought about it before? But as pointed out above Blofeld first introduces himself in YOLT. And the order of the films is how I have always seen them.
The order I came up with was YOLT, DAF, TMWTGG, OHMSS, FYEO. I figured that this order works due to the fact that from Diamonds, we can assume that Henderson in Twice was actually a clone planted by the real Blofeld. After a break in the SPECTRE story (by this time in my timeline, I needed a break from the Bond/Blofeld conflict stories! Also, TMWTGG has a very good connection to Diamonds in the pre-title sequence.) we pick back up where Blofeld now wants amnesty for his past crimes.
A bit crazy, I know. That said, the actually tone shifts between films actually feels like it progresses. TMWTGG helps shift the tone of the series slightly so it doesn't seem so jarring going from one end of the spectrum to the other.
The idea of imagining the cartoonish YOLT came after the brilliant OHMSS doesn't work for me.
The PTS is out for revenge for the killing of Aki. Hence why it starts in Japan ? ;)
My explanation is that both disguises worked: Japanese-Bond in YOLT (okay he didn't have it anymore, but maybe some makeup was left or something) and academic Bond in OHMSS.
Now there are a few hiccups to this theory, one being Bond automatically recognizing Charles Gray is the beginning of DAF as Blofeld, but I still rather like this theory.
Yes but like Clark Kent it goes with the genre and time.

Good point.
well, apparently this is at about the same place as GE's chase:
they have some nice music in the Red Army:
(and stay as they were, they sing themselves, so Soviet Union and Russia's military, as they both are the 'red army' are 'the same friendly service'.
Oh, and they're pretty good at playing 'Command & Conquer: Red Alert (II)'.
So nah.
Are Russian soldiers immediately shot on the spot if they make a potentially deadly mistake?
