I had YOLT at 24th, last among the EON films, mostly because it's so stupid. But to be fair, just how stupid it is only becomes completely clear after the title sequence. I mean, why would Bond fake his death in private where nobody apart from hi…

I had it at number six. It's quick, breezy, intriguing, and a great way to start a movie. Bond's absence is irrelevant.

It's to do with the main girls, and not anyone like Della. But R1s1ngs0n, your idea is better than my answer! (I'm actually worried that it's been done already...)

Or in the meantime, ponder the odd one out among these four Bond films: YOLT LALD TMWTGG LTK

I'm probably a little late on this, but a quick MI7 review: It was surprisingly bad. This is my third favorite film franchise (after Bond and JP), and I just can't wrap my head around how the film turned out this way. It's bloated with characters…

I had thought they copied The Lost World...

Funny, I find Chris Pratt rather underrated...! I thought he was perfect in the Jurassic movies. Trevorrow's two films are largely satirical, and I thought Pratt's slightly overly macho and stoic leading man shtick was excellent. The controversia…

Good guess, but that's not it

I dunno, I imagine Silva had a tunnel ready to blow to stop anyone at all who's following him, not necessarily Bond and not even someone directly behind him. It's a decent distraction for law enforcement. And Underground trains come along fairly reg…

Kronsteen in FRWL: "The man the British will almost certainly use on a mission of this sort would be their agent James Bond." Given that the mission, as outlined by Spectre, is for MI6 to send James Bond specifically, I think this is a pretty saf…

Oh, right! LALD TMWTGG TSWLM MR Title sequences

There absolutely were stupid things in the early movies. Tatiana makes the following offer to MI6: "Help me defect, and I'll give you a decoder. And by that I mean you have to blow up a Soviet Embassy in Istanbul and go in and take it yourself." Thi…

Bond isn't shirtless in these films, except for Spectre's title sequence?

That is a very clever answer! But I was thinking of something related to gadgets.

I'll have another go then... DAF LALD MR TLD As usual, they all have something in common, but one is different.

Bond is with a bunch of 00s, but in TB, they're not infiltrating anything, they're just at a briefing?

Well, I guess he rides animals in all of them, but in LALD it's as stepping stones? Or in LALD they're not mammals?

I'll take that! M is in all of the PTSs, but in TLD he's out in the field.
