    Wow I made the putt! Great round @SIS_HQ

    Here is one:
    • YOLT
    • LALD
    • QOS

    Dead body on the bed. However Bond's death in bed in YOLT was faked.

    Oh, yes, that's it.
    Let me say, in all of those three films, Bond was having a moment with the girl when the villains interrupted them.
    Thanks for correction, @goldenswissroyale

    Good guess @goldenswissroyale but not what I am looking for.

    All three have Bond dealing with allies being carried on the other film:

    YOLT - Charles Grey as Dikko Henderson being carried on in DAF but as a villain in Blofeld.
    QoS - Giannini reprised his role as Mathis from CR only to end up being a villain.
    LALD is the OOO because the ally who returned was a son of Quarrel from Dr. No (Quarrel Jr.)

    Wow didn't even occur to me about that similarity. Sorry that's not what I am looking for.

    I'm trying to think of a clue that won't give it all away. :)

    Bond fights villains who wield bladed weapons.
    YOLT - driver with katana
    LALD - Baron Samedi with sword
    QOS - Greene with fire axe is OOO as Bond injures and ultimately incapacitates the villain with his own weapon.

    Solid guess! I am afraid that is not what I am looking for.

    The OOO involves a vehicle

    Lets give this a gentle bump.

    Hint

    OOO involves a vehicle and Bond is in the vehicle

    In LALD and QOS, Bond drives with someone seriously injured and dying in the car, but in YOLT Bond pretends to be the one injured in the back seat.

    Did I miss something? Mathis a villain

    Great guess @QBranch but not what I am looking for. I will say as a further hint in two of these occurrences Bond is indeed with someone in the vehicle.

    Bond is a passenger to a female driver in all of them but in LALD it's in a plane whereas the other two are cars?

    But I thought he betrayed Bond? Didn't he?

    Or maybe I'm just having my Mandela Effect caused by looking on Dolly's braces? ;)

    You are on the right track here @mtm but you may need to take another "flying" guess at it.

    There is plane action in all of them and a plane is always destroyed. However, in LALD, the plane stays on the ground.

    You are close enough @goldenswissroyale

    YOLT Bond seen piloting a plane
    LALD Bond seen piloting a plane
    QOS Bond seen piloting a plane

    LALD OOO as the plane Bond is piloting never leaves the ground.

    As Mrs. Bell would say "Oh shit." Over to you! :)

    New round:
    DAF
    TLD
    NTTD
  • Is the answer that Felix Leiter is in all films. Only in diamond are forever is he using disguise when he and James Bond are at airport?

    Bond uses a knife in all three, but in NTTD it's to cut an apple for a child?

    Thanks for guessing. It has nothing to do with Felix or knives.

    DAF Bond evades the police in a car
    TLD Bond evades the police in a car
    NTTD Bond evades the police on foot

    NTTD is OOO has Bond evades police on foot!

    Good try. Nothing about cars or police.

    DAF female allies are civilians
    TLD female allies are civilians
    NTTD female allies are agents and civilians

    NTTD is OOO has the female allies are a mix of pros and civilians

    Nothing about allies, I'm afraid.
    I give a hint later today, if needed.

    Three Films involving a character wearing a lab coat:

    NTTD - Valdo Obruchev wearing a lab coat
    TLD - Koskov wearing a lab coat
    DAF - Bond wearing a lab coat

    NTTD is the OOO because Valdo Obruchev is a real scientist in that suit, the other two used the lab coats for disguise.

    @SIS_HQ
    That's a great guess. I like it a lot. Unfortunately, I thought about something else.
    Hint: a scene happens in Las Vegas, another one in Vienna

    Taking a flyer here:

    DAF stuffed animal is seen and held by the leading lady
    TLD stuffed animal is seen and held by the leading lady
    NTTD stuffed animal is seen and held by a child

    NTTD is OOO as the animal is held by the child
