    MR

    1. Centrifuge (one of Moore's finest moments as Bond, and he doesn't even say anything!)
    2. Corinne's death
    3. Pretitles (to this day I just can't enough of this benchmark aerial scene)

    Dam this is hard cause I'm one of very few who really love Moonraker

    1. The Whole Cable Cart Scene
    2. Centrifuge

    PTS
    Amazonas boat chase
    Second fight with Chang

    Both times Bond fights Chang, there is a lot of broken glass. I think CHANG! is the sound of that.

    1- Fight with Chang
    2- An horribly disguised Jaws approaching Manuela in the alley. Pure nightmare fuel.
    3- JAWS SURVIVES AGAIN! (But while I even enjoyed Jaws doing a heel-face turn, I never liked Ravalec's inclusion: she's as beautiful - without glasses and pigtails, of course - as any Bond girl can be, but... So annoying pretending to be funny, somewhat of predating Jar Jar Binks).

    BTW, nowadays Blanche Ravalec works in French radio and TV and does some voice acting, doesn't she?

    Another not easy to select three, can only think of one really…and not the PTS which apart from a good stunt is completely stupid!
    1. Corrine's death - which is excellently shot and seems to belong to a better, more serious film.
    2. James Bond will return
    3.…

    Roll on FYEO.

    It seems we can't get through one film without some snarky comment about the current film.

    Sorry @MayDay if I've upset you, but on seeing Moonraker (a novel I love) in the cinema on first release I felt embarrassed to be a Bond fan, not only was it TSWLM in space, but it went overboard in the humour stakes, and I really thought that was the end of Bond. Was this what we had to look forward to? Carry On James…but luckily no, we came back down to earth and ploughed on. I'll try NOT to be too 'snarky' in future (oh no AVTAK to come!) and not upset you.

    Oh no, @Lancaster007, you didn't upset me. MR isn't amongst my favourites, either, but the thread asks what your three favourite scenes are, something even @Birdleson whose enthusiasm for the series was dampened upon seeing MR, managed to single out three scenes. I'm sure when it comes to DAD, I'll be able to do the same (then again, there are plenty more than just three scenes in DAD that I enjoy). To be honest, I can't see anything wrong with the scenes that people have chosen thus far (centrifuge scene? Tense, well played by Moore. The dialogue with Drax in California? Great stuff). This is one of those threads amongst the sea of negativity where one can find solace and be positive about films that one may heavily dislike.

    Yes, we have plenty of threads for saying what we hate about our favorite film franchise. I think this thread is an exception.

    Indeed, and I will endeavour to participate in the spirit of the thread, though I do dislike the opposite to me who put 'the whole thing' or list a dozen or more scenes!
    THREE it is from now on! :-) :-) :-)

    Great picks, all. Some great moments there.


    1. Bond Lured to Pyramid (the score is fantastic)
    That is one of my all time favorite Barry compositions. Kudos to you for making it your number one.

    Moonraker.

    1. Such good sport
    2. Corinne´s death (as a huge Hammer fan this scene just gets me)
    3. PTS

    I wanted to be different, but I have to go along with most choices here. Always preferred MR to TSWLM, just for sheer fun.
    1) PTS
    2) Corinnes death
    3) Bond in Centrifuge.
    Have to mention Derek Meddings sterling work in Special effects, and always wondered what Kate Bush would have done with title song had she not turned them down?!

    Kate Bush would have been heavenly, but still glad we got a third bassey song.

    Kate can still do it.
  • Posts: 7,431
    Yeh, I think she thought doing a bond song was a bit beneath her at the time!
    Would still love to hear her do one!

    1. PTS
    2. Centrifuge
    3. Death of Draz "take a giant step for mankind" "Ya-ahhhhhhh"
