    Government extradition. That should be the gadget to get him out of there. ;)

    Yes, a different kind of gadget, if you will.

    Don't worry about this leg 007 - just a reminder of a nasty meeting with a few chaps who were employees of the casino I was toying with.

    Why was there a disclaimer at the beginning of AVTAK? Did somebody called Zorin complain?

    Yup, somebody complained. From Wikipedia :

    "Legal problems arose before the film's release when producers became aware there was a pre-existing company named the Zoran Corporation which makes microchips. The Zoran Corporation threatened to sue for defamation. Pre-production crew had neglected to do a trademark search prior to filming. The parties came to an agreement and, because of this, A View to a Kill is the first 007 film with a legal disclaimer inserted."

    Note that a Google search found out an operating system named Zorin OS :

    I am sueing EON for their film Goldfinger "(1964, Guy Hamilton).

    The title is suspiciously reminiscent of my username. I will be rich soon.

    One claret instead of tissues would do.

    I don't recall any month being mentioned in a Bond film so far. The nearest l can think of is Mayday from 'A View To A Kill'.


    Going back to this question, I just noticed that the newspaper reporting Bond's supposed death in YOLT is dated July 9, 1966.

    In Tomorrow Never Dies Stamper records himself killing the 17 survivors of the Devonshire, and remarks to Carver that the footage 'was excellent'. Was there any purpose to this, or have I missed it?

    An attempt at trying to make him seem intimidating?

    I feel like the video they shot may have featured a bit of the stealth ship in the background, which isn't good; suppose I've never really thought about it, but it does seem rather pointless in hindsight to have shot that footage.

    It's not so much a "speculation" thread as it is a wish list, but here you go:
