    FRWL Bond uses a knife on Grant
    YOLT Henderson is stabbed in the back with a knife
    LTK Bond threatens Lupe with a knife to the throat

    LTK is OOO as the knife isn't used but merely a threat.

    None sofar! 😁 Although I do have a lot of experience 'landing' on them 😄

    OOO is TMWTGG as it is not Bond who is restrained on a boat?

    No boats involved.

    YOLT Foot chase between Bond and Aki
    TMWTGG Foot chase between Hip and Bond
    CR Foot chase between Bond and bomber

    CR is OOO as the chase involves Bond and an enemy

    Thanks @goldenswissroyale

    OOO is TMWTGG as it is not Bond who steals something from a safe, but a Bond girl?

    Good idea @QBranch but it is more action packed.
    Two of the scenes happen in the first quarter of the movies.
    Bond is always there but it isn't about him.

    One of the locations is there, where people are mad about a car driving with gas.

    YOLT car is seen in the sky
    TMWTGG car is seen in the sky
    CR car is seen in the sky but doesn't go high

    CR is OOO as the barrel rolls send the car airborne but not has high as the other two

    A bit of a reach but one never knows!

    Creative but nothing with cars. In fact, think about "action" without vehicles and Bond not directly involved.

    Oh: is it Bond watching fights in a ringside situation, but in CR it's between animals rather than humans?

    Well done, @mtm. This game has been played and I have lost.

    Ah wonderful! That was a great idea for a round!

    Okay, this one messes with the format a bit but I wanted to get every occurrence of this in the films (which I think I've got, although might end up being corrected on!)

    OHMSS
    MR
    FYEO
    AVTAK
    LTK
    QOS

    This is something that Bond does/happens to him, and although I have thought of an OOO I'm going to be lenient on it as it's a bit arbitrary!

    Bond falls from a height but in MR the fall is with a female

    That’s not what I’m looking for: as I say I think these are the only ones in which it happens.
  • thedovethedove hiding in the Greek underworld

    This is a bit of challenge, only happens in these films?

    I was thinking about the tossing of hats, but that happens in other films.

    Tough one!

    I'm pretty sure it's only these ones, yeah. Bond is involved in all of them, although it's more someone else doing something for him.

    OHMSS Bond seen in a helicopter as a passenger
    MR Bond seen in a helicopter as a passenger
    FYEO Bond seen in a helicopter as a passenger
    AVTAK Bond watches a helicopter
    LTK Bond seen in a helicopter as a passenger
    QOS ?

    QOS is OOO has a helicopter isn't featured? I'm grasping.

    You would think having more movies would make this easier but it ups the challenge significantly, at least for this old brain of mine.

    That’s not it but you’re actually on the right lines.

    I thought about Bond using public transportation without involving an action scene ... It doesn't fit good enough

    Okay, how about this

    OHMSS Bond is a back seat passenger
    MR Bond is a back seat passenger
    FYEO Bond is a back seat passenger
    AVTAK Bond is a back seat passenger
    LTK Bond is a back seat passenger
    QOS Bond is a back seat passenger

    AVTAK is OOO has the reason he's in the back seat is part of his cover?

    It's close, but I'm looking for something more specific...

    Bond driven in a Limousine, except in QoS, where it is only Greene in it?
  • mtmmtm United Kingdom

    You're getting slightly colder there as that term isn't really applicable to all of the films listed- can you be more specific? :)

    Oh man- I'm so sorry; I've just realised I made a terrible mistake! I put QoS when i actually meant Spectre! Sorry everyone, not sure what happened there- had a total brainfart. So it's actually:

    OHMSS
    MR
    FYEO
    AVTAK
    LTK
    SP

    I think that will probably clear it up!

    Bond is aboard a Rolls in each film, I believe.
    But if memory serves, he’s also chauffeured in one in FRWL and SP so not sure if this is the right answer.

    Ah, is Bond in a Limousine with M in QOS?
  • mtmmtm United Kingdom
    Posts: 14,961
    Bingo! That's the one - I did entirely miss FRWL though, good spot! As I suspected, I did indeed end up being corrected on it :)
    Apologies again for the QoS/Sp mixup too - I made a real mess of that round!

    My selected OOO was LTK: because Bond gets chauffered in not one but two Rolls Royces- once on the way to Felix's wedding and then later in Isthmus when Q chauffeurs him around in a later model.

    Interesting trivia @mtm
    New round:
    TB
    YOLT
    DAF
    All three reuse the same thing but not at the same time...

    The track '007', originally introduced in FRWL, is featured in some form in all three.
    YOLT is OOO as it's not used during the climax.
