James Bond Octopussy Workprint

edited May 2021 in Bond Movies Posts: 229
Made a new thread about this.
Here are some clips of the rare Octopussy workprint.

The first clip has the original lines of Roger Moore and Desmond Llewelyn.


The second one has a longer shot with missing opening credits similar to the TLD workprint.


The third has an added line not heard in the final movie ''Don't harm her''.

    Very nice find @Gunbarrels007
    Do you have anymore scenes from Octopussy? Or the full work print? Be very interested to see any alternate or possibly deleted scenes.

    No there are no deleted scenes in the workprint only some undubbed lines.

    As if my Bond-A-Thons weren't already overloaded. Do these exist for other Bond films?

    I've been trying to download the TLD workprint again and post some clips of it. Has some very interesting deleted scenes.

    Seems someone already posted them which is a shame since I can post them in much better quality.

    Many thanks for posting that video! I'm always up for 11+ minutes of TLD workprint. I enjoyed the extra angles/time spent on the one agent dying in the PTS.

    Jesus that GB is bad. Makes the Craig era ones look amazing.

    It's amazing they got it so wrong there only to get it so right in the end as the TLD GB might well be my favourite.

    Never before seen shot from the workprint:

    From some reason the images don't come up on Firefox but do on IE.

    They work on Internet Explorer 11 for me, I know it's an old version but try downloading that and see if they show up.

    Or, if you want a trade or something in return for the work, contact me: [email protected]
