Poor guy. We never even get to see his face.
Since we're on the subject of Xenia and GE, does Xenia call Bond a "Biach" during the casino and sauna scenes? I can't imagine her using American urban slang unless it has another meaning in Russian. It's a pretty funny idea though.
i just watched this one actually, and i believe when Felix asks "Where did my friend go?" the bartender/waiter says "Your friend? Look man.." and then it gets cut off by the next scene....
i always imagined that the bartender/waiter told him that Bond got up and left in a hurry or something.. i very much doubt he would threaten Felix - as that would raise a serious red flag
EDIT: on a side note - i didn't realize how obscenely late i was to this thread, so if i've repeated anything that someone else has already answered, my apologies lol.
It is Russian for whore.
If that's the case with LALD than that's just lazy screenwriting/filmmaking. Felix literally just shows up again later without any explanation of what happened. Did they attack Felix too? How did Felix find Bond? How could Felix be so stupid? But then again this was a Guy Hamilton movie and those sort of things were plentiful.
As far as your second answer goes, I asked that question in 2011 before we got the Skyfall trailer that verified Bond's standing in the military.
Than she'll never know how right she was about Bond haha.
MI6 stands for Military Intelligence section 6. Although I believe SIS/MI6 reports to the Joint Intelligence Committee of the Cabinet Office.
i just chalk it up to the writing...
but when Bond takes a ride on the ol' trap door, and Felix comes back..
he asks the bartender what happened - the bartender (like i said before) probably told him that his friend left somewhere in a hurry...
Felix probably waited around a short while to see if James would show back up, he didn't, so he probably left to make contact back with his CIA team, and to report that Bond was MIA.... remember, this all during the time that Bond is being questioned by Kananga and then eventually taken to the gator farm - which he makes his escape via power boat.. Felix doesn't turn back up until Bond is pulling into a marina... he probably knew where to eventually find Bond, because they could've been monitoring the police chatter about a white male being pursued by "black Russians" as the good sheriff would say.
If that was the case than one quick scene showing what had happened to Felix would've sufficed and probably would've aided the pacing of the film aswell.
Hope that helps!
Does anyone know the real registrations of the Goldeneye/TND Aston Martin DB5s? Specifically the one on display in London's Film Museum.
No.
Try this link. Can anyone verify this?

I'm aware of at least one person that definitely has. A lot of people are suggesting it won't spoil it for them, which I find a little presumptuous given they won't actually know that until they see the movie.
I doubt it. A prop department could easily make a replica and age it.
Well I had all the story as it was meant to be told at least once. I won't be spoiled by someone writing, like for Skyfall, "M dies" all over the forum weeks before the release. And now, there are lots of people knowing the leaked screenplay... It takes just a troll to spoil the fun. I choose to take the vaccine. I know what the trolls will know.
The leaked screenplay from Dec 1st is already obsolete, anyway, we can see that from the clapperboard photos. There will be surprises for everyone probably.
And well, given some Mendes interview, it looks like Skyfall's first line of screenplay is "James Bond Theme- Gunbarrel". We know how it turned out...
Compare to Goldeneye
Perhaps Aston didn't include chrome back then?
