Is chalk like cheese? There's your answer @hullcityfan!
Trust me it's ruined without us saying a thing! ;)
Kudos. That's a good one! It also happens to be true.
This one tries to parody Bond and fails astoundingly.
True, though that said, there's probably more of CR the novel in the '67 version than in the YOLT, TSWLM and MR film versions, in all honestly.
Barbara Bouchet would have made a great Bond girl in the official series. She was rather hot! (slight understatement, that).
I think the score does elevate the film. Burt Bacharach put his heart and soul into composing for the film. His style is so far removed from John Barry's but it's still a great score. The Look Of Love is a timeless classic. That song should have been Oscar nominated. It's one of the greatest songs ever. :)
But looking at the overall film, yeah, it's a huge stinker. LOL Absolutely bonkers film with a nonsensical plot. You could argue it's one of the worst films ever made with one of the best soundtracks. Hard to imagine many other films with such a cool soundtrack but the actual content of the film is so bad.
There are some good/funny parts to be sure, but you're really not wrong in describing the plot as bonkers!
Yes, I think the writers, directors, actors and producer must have been on something. Well, it was the late 1960s!
It's all a bit like The Magic Roundabout...though on LSD!
What happened on (and off) the set of the Adam West Batman series is legendary. Well, with all the lovely ladies around on the set of CR67, who knows what happened. ;-)
There was a 007 mag that went into the making of the movie, with the other half of the mag given over to the other unofficial Bond, NSNA. One was for sale in the movie shop on St Martin's Lane recently for £30, shame I didn't snap up a copy but I hesitated.
Another aspect later used: Bond's home is destroyed.
IMO it's the first part of the film that sinks it, the stuff with a stuttering Niven on the Scottish estate, and Deborah Kerr and her girrrrls is just so awful, with 'comical' music attached, it goes on forever. Once it gets bonkers, things pick up a bit but goodwill is killed by that point.
I like the way as a homage you have managed to create a sentence that is just as staggering in its mind numbing incoherence as the film you are talking about.
MI6 is still free to view for this content?!
If you've seen the film it say's that.
How ironic.
I meant your monstrous misuse of grammar.
Where may I ask?
I make that seven cases of greengrocer's apostrophe in just one paragraph.
I always was terrible in English anyway have you ever seen the film?
I'm not getting at you, just pointing out what Mr Ice was referring to there. If you follow my grammar advice you'd get better at English. PM me if you want to and I'll give you some tips.
Yes, I've seen the film and while there are some good parts, on the whole I'd say it's a heap of dung!
It's not it's great I'll PM you later.
That'll do, mucker.
Superb Mr Dragonpol superb! Alas your advice is utterly wasted on the cretin and he continues to inflict his inanity on the rest of us.
Thank you, Mr Ice. I am but an apprentice to your mastery.
