  • 1. OP (despite Tarzan call.) 2. FYEO (could have done without cartoonish Blofeld) 3. TLD (waving falling dummy is embarrassing.) 4. AVTAK (guilty pleasure. Great villain wasted on stupid plot.) 5. LTK (too low rent to be any higher)

  • GoldenEye did bring in a lot of new fans. Similar to how Goldfinger did I think.

  • Brosnan matured nicely into the role in TND. TND was intended to be a straightforward Bond adventure to help cement the franchise's return. Brosnan's performance exhibited a great deal more confidence in TND than GE. Just compare the BJB lines in…

  • Not saying as an excuse but remember during part of the filming and I'm sure part of the final preproduction MGW was having health problems.
