    Joe Don Baker is great in CHARLEY VARRICK. He pounds Scorpio killer Andy Robinson to a pulp.

    Boris makes Truman Lodge look like Connery in FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE.

    Pierce's first filmed scene.

    Minnie Driver.

    I love this scene.

    I really like Pierce's clothes. His outfits really look sharp. I hate to say it, but with the exception of CR and QOS, Craig's clothes aren't cutting it for me.

    Bond takes a swim.

    I do like the bass lick on the score here.

    NO, NO, NO!
    No more foreplay.

    Great delivery of that line.

    I am one of a very few who finds that one of the most tediously dull and pointless scene in the film (rivaled, and possibly matched, by the beach scene and the opening car chase).

    It is a bit long, IMO. Feels like it's meant to be the film's highlight a'la the boat chase in LALD. I enjoy the motorcycle chase in TND a bit more. Perhaps it's Arnold's score that helps?

    Bond and Natalya escape the train. It's this shot of the two of them afterwards in which he looks the most like Remington Steele to me.

    The famous BMW that so many people bought because Bond had one.

    Jack Wade again. Not to be confused with MacGyver's pilot buddy Jack Dalton.

    Nearly everyone who is in the same shot with Pierce makes him look cool. Bond is sporting a beautiful beige suit whereas Jack is wearing a rather loud shirt and goofy hat. As lovely as she is, Natalya's dress doesn't flatter her to well either, TBH.

    Bond in bed with Natalya. His watch band rolls all over his arm, One would think Q could have had it adjusted.

    Bond vs. Xenia. He's getting pounded.
    Time for some of the iconic Pierce pain face.


    AAAAAAAAAAARRRRGHH!!!!!!!

    I wish I could freeze this shot of Pierce and use it as my profile pic. That would be great!

    I do feel this climactic set piece and location is pretty strong for a later Bond film.
    I love the satellite. Peter Lamont's sets are quite Bondian.

    I obviously haven't watched this one enough lately, because I can't get over how sharp and good the Blu-ray looks compared to the sub standard 2006 DVD.

    The great shot of Bond barely flinching as the bullets fly past his head.

    I always maintain the belief that Bond should look like the coolest person in the room.

    Pierce passes that test with flying colors here in his olive green attire. Boris makes Bond look extremely cool.

    To his credit, Alec looks pretty bad a$$ in all black here, as well.

    Brosnan has a slight stubble which adds to the cool factor here. Not overgrown like Craig's in SF. Bond really does look the $h!t.

    Even when getting his arse kicked by Natalya, Boris seems like a dork.

    I should get a vest like Bond's here.

    The Alec Bond fight is coming up here. Bond is being chased up the satellite. Now here, I don't mind Serra's music at all.
  • ToTheRightToTheRight

    Considering Serra's score is often considered the series' worst, I do feel it has some strong cues.

    Solid fight scene here
