    Okay here it comes.............the Ladies First cue.

    The reaction shots of Serena Gordon aren't funny to me.

    Pierce's Omega is too big for his wrist. Still it looks cool.

    Pierce is pretty suave. Ilove the bit as he exits the Aston Martin and says "Bon soir" to Pierre.

    The shot of Pierce walking thru the casino is quite similar to Daniel's shot in CR.

    Famke is still my favorite Pierce Bond girl.

    It's a minor nitpicking and personal but... I hated the fact that Brosnan's first two tuxedos were three piece dinner jackets. Bond should always wear a two-piece dinner jacket.

    He's about to say the line....................

    ...........and he nails it in his first film.

    I think the Blu ray got the colors right. This looks as I remember it in the cinema. I think I saw this one about 12 times.

    Xenia and the Admiral get down. This scene isn't exactly funny, or particularly steamy.
    One bit that really works is here...............Bond subdues the guy in the boat.

    Bond wears a cravat. Hmm.

    Thanks @ToTheRight , I have always, always had a problem with this. I find it almost unforgivable.

    The only excuse I can make is that he's trying to turn the psyche-eval in his favour (by showing he's a girly-man, stereotypical British toff/poofter).

    Connery, Lazenby, or Craig. Did they wear this embarrassment???

    Am I mistaken to think that Fleming never wrapped one of these around his creation's neck?

    The towel bit is pure Bond at his coolest.

    I don't ever remember Bond in the novels wearing one. I do think David Niven might have worn one in CR, though.
    Good idea, though. Perhaps he was wearing it at the expense of Caroline. Give her the impression he's a bit of a dandy.

    Alan Cumming. I had a friend back then who looked quite a bit like Boris. Same haircut, glasses and clothing style. I never told him that, though.

    Izabella is easily my favorite Pierce Bond girl in a leading role.

    I can assure you, after seeing Dalton Bond morph into a dandy Bond and his cravat, GE disappointed for a very long time...

    Famke looks amazing in that uniform. Ouromov is a great villain, IMO.

    Bond walks into Moneypenny's office. Pierce is great here. Good rapport with Samantha.

    Michael Kitchen, to this day, remains my favorite Tanner. Also helps that I always liked him from DRACULA AD 1972.

    The model work here was never quite up to MOONRAKER standards, but I'll take it over green screen and CGI any day.

    Bond and M. I'm glad the classic office has finally come back to the series, TBH.
    I'd take Edward Fox's office over this.

    Your interior decorating tips have always been appreciated, @ToTheRight .

    The Mickey G. Oscar winning cameo. I think I might have been the only one in the audience to clap when I spotted him here.

    Like THUNDERBALL this one has a nice build up before 007 is actually en route to his assignment.

    The Q scene. I do miss Desmond. What a legend.
  • Posts: 16,162
    Pierce really plays this scene with Desmond well.
  • Posts: 16,162
    Bond puts his hands on Q's foot-long.

    Jack Wade.
    I love Joe Don Baker, but Wade makes Sheriff JW Pepper look like Connery/ Bond.

    He is funny, though. I just wish Pierce had a Felix in his era.
