    And there is the vulcanic lair and the invention of Austin powers.

    I'm not sure opening the volcano for the helicopter makes any sense. Nor the use of it in the first place. Is that a shopping run or something?

    When the control room techies run off, there's a painting visible. Anyone know what it is and if it was stolen?

    The milk in the SPECTRE cafeteria went bad and they had to go out for more. :))

    Oddly, @CommanderRoss, I use this thread for ideas of which Bond film I should watch next and YOLT usually satisfies - the lovely Japan locations, Ken Adam's sets, John Barry's lush score, Feddie Young's cinematography and the lovely Mie Hama and Akiko Wakabayashi :x

    Note that Mie Hama was in several Bond "spoofs" back in the 1960s - including 1965's IRONFINGER (aka '100 Shot, 100 Killed').

    Codeword ' imminent' for start ww3, codeword "not imminent" for calling it off. Can't go wrong there, no chance of only picking up half the message.

    And there's m"s personal sub. This film was fun, although the plot is worse than I remember. I take it Blofeld got his down payment though. So he can start all over again.

    Robinson's exposition is total. Here's him, here's this dude. Judi Dench is awesome. Robinson is jow in EastEnders.

    Admiral Roebuck is Palmer's stock character. He plays him in everything. Even the sausage guy in Fawlty Towers, the crusty ol' shite

    Scene builds really well with excellent exposition shots, but Bond isn't rattled.

    Would the ejector seat really pierce (wahey) a warplane's fuselage and make it explode?

    Time Team never bothered finding out, the lazy bastards

    Albert R Broccoli's Eon productions presents Pierce Brosnan as Ian Fleming's James Bond 007

    Feck me. Even Robinson couldn't interpret such ownership issues

    The sunking scene in FYEOnis more terrifying because it didn't have so invasive a score
