    Anymore for any more. We'll wrap this one up in the next day or so.

    Pretty much all of Berkoff's speech to the ministers.

    "We do have one lead, Minister. The property of a lady."

    "James, stick to the business at hand."

    "Having problems keeping it up, Q?"

    "He suggests a trade: the egg for your life."
    "I'd heard the price of eggs was going up, but isn't that a little high?"

    "That's my little Octopussy."

    "Who is he?"
    "Englishman. Likes eggs, preferably Fabergé, and dice, preferably loaded."

    "A 'no' from you has little chance of becoming a 'yes.' I assume therefore that the meeting is over. But you're making a serious mistake."

    "I don't suppose you'd care for a nightcap? No."

    "Are you with our group?"
    "No ma'am, I'm with the economy tour."

    "Mr. Bond is indeed a very rare breed. Soon to be made extinct."

    "You have a nasty habit of surviving."
    "You know what they say about the fittest."

    "Remember, 007, you're on your own."
    "Thank you, sir. That's a great comfort."

    "Yes, but tomorrow I shall be a hero of the Soviet Union..."

    "Octopussy, Octopussy..."

    "Cut it out. We haven't time for that. Later perhaps."

    Jordan deserves an award for saying that line with a straight face.

    And so it's time to bid farewell to one of my all time favourite Bond movies. But not before we relive a few choice quotes...

    Kamal Khan: Mr. Bond is indeed of a very rare breed... soon to be made extinct.

    Vijay: Is he still there?
    Q: You must be joking! 007 on an island populated exclusively by women? We won't see him till dawn!

    Kamal Khan: You have a nasty habit of surviving.
    James Bond: You know what they say about the fittest.

    James Bond: Having problems keeping it up, Q?
    Q: Experimental model!

    Kamal Khan: Spend the money quickly, Mister Bond.

    Woman on Tour Boat: Are you with our group?
    James Bond: No, ma'am, I'm with the economy tour!

    Twin Two: And this... for my brother...
    James Bond: And that's for 009!

    James Bond: Double sixes. Fancy that!

    M: Eyes only, 007. Operation Trove. You'll be replacing 009. He turned up dead in East Germany with that egg in his hand.

    Orlov : Leave that. Let's go.

    Bond: Let's stay. Sit on that box. Hands on your knees. Come on, move.

    Why is that bomb on the train?

    Orlov: Who are you?

    Bond: I'm British secret service.

    Orlov: You should be more concerned about getting out of here alive.

    Bond: l am more concerned about an atomic bomb exploding on a US Air Force base.

    You surely can't be inviting a full scale nuclear war. What happens when the US retaliates?

    Orlov: Against whom?

    Bond: My God. Of course.

    Our early-warning system will rule out the bomb having come from Russia

    or anywhere else.

    Everyone will assume incorrectly that it was a US bomb triggered accidentally.

    Orlov: That would be the most plausible explanation.

    Bond: Europe will insist on disarmament,

    leaving every border undefended for you to walk across at will.

    lt doesn't matter a damn to you

    that thousands of innocent people will die in your accident.

    Orlov: Better than letting a handful of old men in Moscow

    bargain away our advantage in disarmament talks.

    Bond: On your feet, General. You're going to stop that train.


    The confrontation with Orlov is without doubt one of my favourite scenes in all the Bond series.
    And so, it's time to move on to. A View To A Kill.

    "Take these, would you?"

    "Someone will take care of you."
    "You'll see to that personally, will you?"

    Zorin- "If you're the best they've got, they'll more likely try and cover up your embarrassing incompetence."
    B- "Don't count on it, Zorin."
    Z- "You amuse me, Mr. Bond."
    B- "Well, it's not mutual." (Akin to Bond/Greene's talk in QoS)

    "On a mission, I am expected to sacrifice myself."

    Stacy- "JAMES!!!"

    James Bond: Hello. I thought you might like to join the party. By the way, the name is James St. John Smythe. I'm English.

    Stacey Sutton: I never would have guessed.

    "Horses."

    "Oh, does that mean you're not staying the night? I was hoping we'd spend the evening together. Now I shall be all alone."

    "Huh, well you came to the wrong place, didn't you?"

    "Mayday, where have you been? I've been... waiting for you. To take care of me, personally."

    Well it's almost nine months since I took any notice of this thread. (It's not easy keeping a check on things...honest)
    Anyhoo, time to wrap things up with AVTAK methinks.

    A final look at some choice quotes...

    James Bond: My department knows I'm here. When I don't report they'll retaliate.
    Max Zorin: If you're the best they've got, they're more likely to try and cover up your embarrassing incompetence.

    James Bond: Well my dear, I take it you spend quite a lot of time in the saddle.
    Jenny Flex: Yes, I love an early morning ride.
    James Bond: Well, I'm an early riser myself.

    Tibbett, Sir Godfrey: Another wealthy owner?
    James Bond: Who knows? But she certainly bares closer inspection.
    Tibbett, Sir Godfrey: We're on a mission.
    James Bond: Sir Godfrey, on a mission, I am expected to sacrifice myself!

    Scarpine: He's the outstanding horse of the sales. We expect him to fetch over three million dollars!
    James Bond: Oh, sounds quite reasonable!

    Max Zorin: You lost, 007.
    James Bond: [after looking at Tibbett's body] Killing Tibbett was a mistake.
    Max Zorin: Then I'm about to make that same mistake twice.

    General Anatol Gogol: You will come back to us, comrade. No one ever *leaves* the KGB.

    I always liked the way Gogol said this. Very sinister stuff.

    Max Zorin: More. More power. Do it!

    Max Zorin: You slept well?
    James Bond: A little restless but I got off eventually.

    And with that we bid farewell to Sir Rogers swansong as OO7. And move onto Timothy Daltons debut film.

    "We have an old saying, too, Georgi. And you're full of it."

    "We're free!"
    "Kara... We're in a Russian airbase in the middle of Afghanistan."

    *whistle* "Whaaahuh?!"

    To post the full line-

    "Stuff my orders, I only kill professionals. That girl didn't know one end of her rifle from the other. Go ahead. Tell M what you want. If he fires me, I'll thank him for it."

    Great delivery from Dalton.

    I also usually laugh at the much maligned "Kara, we're inside a Russian airbase in the middle of Afghanistan" quip.
