Considering he's just left the grave of his wife, the woman killed by the man that's now trying to kill him, Bond seems quite jovial about the whole thing.
ReplyDeleteI think, could be wrong, but...first opening "video" to feature the artist doing the theme?
ReplyDeleteGogol is a pimp daddy
ReplyDeleteRoger does seem to be looking his age now but can't blame him for coming back after the last one to make amends.
ReplyDeleteQ says what we're all thinking
ReplyDeleteThe identagraph...takes two people four hours to draw a cartoon, and needs an entire room to itself. Modern technology is a wonderful thing.
ReplyDeleteI put Bibi down as a Bondgirl, but really she just gets on his wick in an entirely different way.
ReplyDeleteWell I didn't realise Charles Dance was in this. Every day's a school day!
ReplyDeleteJust been double checking. This apparently marks the biggest age gap between Bond and the main Bond girl...30 years!!
ReplyDeleteWell, these motorcyclists seem uncharacteristically competent.
ReplyDeleteGetting their money's worth out of that 'boing' sound effect
ReplyDeleteBond's wardrobe seems to be on the slide in this one. It's a long, slippery slope to the Members Only Jacket in A View to a Kill.
ReplyDeleteBond getting out of breath on the stairs...hmmm.
ReplyDeleteMoore does 'stone cold' Bond so well. Would have loved to see him do it more often
ReplyDeleteWhy? Why leave a SCUBA tank down there?
ReplyDeleteThey wouldn't be having this trouble in a battle sub!
ReplyDeleteIs there a brand of Christmas cracker that has parts in Bond films in them? I assume that's how Bibi got her role.
ReplyDeleteGogol's just grateful to be out the office.
ReplyDeleteThe end of this really makes me wince.
ReplyDeleteLove that as far as the Minister was concerned that was Q's fault.
ReplyDeleteNot bad.
