Snap!!
True, but that was the closest to the topic I could think of :))
Something I did remember wrong though, I believed that the blonde Russian female spy in A View To A Kill was the same character as in From Russia With Love. Back a long time ago when I only had seen most of the Bond movies a couple of times.
Well I suppose you were not entirely wrong there as metaphorically speaking Leiter was killed off at least as a character until the reboot provided a chance for his return limbs intact.
In my defence, I was only 10 at the time so didn't know better.
lol, I was thinking a bit more prosaic than that, but they are pretty funny and wacky. Some of the things we can get in our heads when we are too young to fully understand can be quite frightening. Is that what happened here do you think?
Haha your guess is as good as mine. I saw quite a few Bond movies at a young age. I first saw GoldenEye when I was 6 but that never did anything to me. I remember seeing most of Roger's movies not long after I think as a kid they all blurred together. I remember Jaws's jump scare scaring me as a kid. LALD, TMWTGG and MR I could remember most. The others were a blur until I rewatched the movies years later as I only owned the Brosnan films at the time. It's possible I could have seen some trippy movie on tv and mistook it for a Bond film. I think my second memory was just a very poor recollection of FYEO. I clearly remembered the red Lotus but remembered the Identigraph scene taking place in the Lotus itself. Similar to Bond getting data on Xenia and the Yacht from his DB5 dash printer. I saw a lot of iconic movies at a pretty young age. I was probably too young to see a lot of them but It didn't mess me up any except for maybe Robocop 1 and 2. :))
And I still see it when I watch that scene. The way he lifts the gun to his own head like that and how desperate he is in that scene...
EDIT: Maybe that's what you're looking for, Scaramanga?
I went to uni in Lancaster :)
I'm pretty sure I'm right in remembering that, so really it's probably not a false memory. It's something I've said about these films for years to my nearest and dearest.
Fantastic. A great university by all accounts.....................not that I ever got anywhere near a university myself.
the fight on the Egyptian rooftop ended with Bond's tie fraying, finally snapping
sending Sandor off the roof and not Bond swiping him away. :)
How appropriate!
Indeed, that's what I thought when I first watched it. ITV clearly had much more of a sense of humour back in those days.
