Oh goodness, Blood Stone's ending drives me nuts because it just screams "SEQUAL!", and more than likely, we won't get one, much like GoldenEye: Rogue Agent. It's a fair bet to say that Nicole is working for Quantum though. I'd love to know what the…

The Spy Who Loved Me Overall, the villains are more entertaining, especially with the better Jaws performance, the soundtrack is better, Roger's performance hits the mark, the plot is driven better, the action is ten times better, and the pacing is…

Here's a HUGE question and possibly a giant plot hole: In You Only Live Twice, when Helga Brandt and Mr. Osato meet with Blofeld in apartment, Blofeld shows them the picture which Osato took from his special X-Ray desk of Bond's Walther PPK earli…

@thelivingroyale: Yeah, #1 is a favorite of mine as well. "I want you to know this is nothing personal, it's merely, business." Whew, that's some serious villainy right there!

Creasy47 wrote: @BAIN123, I love how he opens the door, as well, haha. Nice little groove in his step. As weird as it is, I also love how he opens the door when he goes downstairs; kind of slams it open and immediately aims his gun in. Very cool. …

Excellent list @Kerim!

Definitely in YOLT when the assassin sneaks into Aki and Bond's bedroom and slips the poison down that string. It seemed very unlikely and almost implausible given the way Aki turned over that the poison would have hit her and not Bond.

I found the battle in the volcano lair in YOLT to be even more extravagent when I watched it yesterday. It really is at the pinncale of "Big Bond Battles." You've got everything from explosions, to sword-fighting ninjas, to machine gun fire, to pist…

One that always struck me as being pretty cool, even though it was so regular, was Kristatos' death in FYEO. I love how he whipped out his knife and was ready for the kill, but at the last second, Colombo saves the day by throwing his knife into Kri…

YOLT, in my opinion, has a very rushed and unfinished ending. Just as soon as Bond blows up Bird One, Blofeld comes back and destroys the volcano, and then Bond and company escape, but it is all done rather quickly and needed another minute or two i…

I wouldn't have thought this, but after last night's viewing, I'd say that You Only Live Twice has some terrific action. Really every action sequence in this movie is very good, even the Little Nellie helicopter battle, thought it's probably the lea…

@haserot: Those are good ones! I've always wanted to do a triple bill of You Only Live Twice, The Spy Who Loved Me, and Tomorrow Never Dies, since they're so alike in plot. And fun fact for you, they all end in a "7" (1967, 1977, 1997).
