    Bond is is shown a threatening tool in all three films and it is said that they will use it to torture him (scalpel, special torture knives and the claw). None of them is really used to harm him in the scene. I would say LALD is the ooo because it isn't a knife and Bond doesn't use it himself.

    We have a wiener 😅
    In both YOLT and TND Bond faces all kinds of nastiness by means of sharp objects, whether in LALD the instrument of torture is part of Tee-Hee himself.
    Over to you your Swiss Highness 😁

    I prefer to be a winner than a wiener but great round anyway. Sorry @thedove, you did most of the work. Well done.
    I hope I didn't play this one before:

    The movies are the two with “eye“ in the title and “another“ one from 2002.

    Have a great Friday and good guessing😀

    Them the breaks! LOL!

    Okay let me think on this!

    FYEO
    GE
    DAD

    A wild stab.

    All feature a General, but in DAD it is a Korean General and not a Russian one.

    No generals involved but thanks for starting.

    They all have a (apparent) villain's death in the PTS. FYEO would be OOO because Blofeld is really dead (he is seen later in the franchise in SP, but that is earlier in the timeline)

    Very good idea, but not what I'm looking for.

    FYEO - Bond is hanging on a rope (at a mountain)
    GE - Bond is hanging on a rope (at the dam)
    DAD - Bond is hanging on a rope/parachute (can't remember) (at the glacier)
    In all cases, he's somewhat tied to it, not solely clinging with his hands.
    OOO would be DAD (Bond in vehicle)

    Ropes aren't a part of this round.

    GE satellite threat.
    DAD satellite threat.

    FYEO ATAC involves a British satellite controller, and the satellite is never shown on screen. The Odd One Out.

    No satellites included this time.

    Lets see if I can have another crack...

    FYEO Bond's gadget car is blown up and never used
    GE Bond's gadget car is seen but not used by Bond
    DAD Bond's gadget car is used in a chase.

    DAD is OOO has he operates the gadgets within the vehicle.

    Another good try but no award.

    Sunday hint: Three scenes with Bond have something in common.

    FYEO Bond is seen piloting a helicopter
    GE Bond is seen flying a plane
    DAD Bond is seen flying a helicopter

    GE is OOO as Bond is seen operating a plane but not a helicopter.

    Nope but this is maybe a first small step in the right direction.

    In all three movies Bond's in danger of dying in a helicopter but gets control of it (well, I can't remember how he finally solves his problem in GE). OOO could be DAD because Bond voluntarily uses the helicopter.

    Very good try but it's not that. There are other parallels apart from helicopters.

    FYEO Bond is seen in a graveyard
    GE Bond is seen in a graveyard of monuments
    DAD Bond is seen given a key to graveyard station

    DAD is OOO has the graveyard isn't outside...I am really reaching here!

    Creative, but not I'm afraid it's the wrong connection. I can say it is true that one scene I have in mind isoutside and another one inside. The third scene with a similarity plays inside and outside.

    Hint: Three different people use something similar. Bond is always involved.

    Bond is seen in a convertible in all three films. YOLT is OOO has he doesn't drive the car.

    YOLT isn't one of the three films. FYEO instead.
    Cars are not involved.

    It's a pity that cars aren't involved; in all three movies a car or several driving backwards are a somewhat memorable part of a chase sequence.
    Apart from that it's difficult; FYEO and GE have an elevator basket, but I can't remember one in DAD.

    @marc: good catch with the cars. Interesting idea with the elevator basket. I can't remember that in GE?

    Hint: Maybe Q can help you!

    Come on, Q, give me something...

    perhaps this:
    FYEO - wheelchair/Blofeld (outside)
    GE - wheelchair/Q (inside)
    DAD -wheelchair/Mr. Krug (inside/outside, I think)

    OOO could be DAD; I think it wasn't an electrical one

    You are right, but I prefer another movie as the ooo. What is Bond only doing in two of the films?

    In GE he is basically passive, so OOO; in the other movies he moves the wheelchair
    somewhere else?

    Yes and what happens to the one in the wheelchair?
