Re: What are you watching?
I will say, though. That freakin' car chase in Diamonds Are Forever was fun as hell. And the elevator scene was pretty bitchin'. The gay dudes was a really weird inclusion, too. :p
Re: What are you watching?
like the middle guy here. I listened to the commentary and they were furious with him for beating Data to the punch. You can only see the tail end of it but he's basically doing exactly what Data does.Foo wrote:That's known as: "the last time you ever get an opportunity to be an extra". I have seen several directors discuss how much they despise that sort of thing.Monster wrote:Dancer at the 29 sec mark always cracks me up. What's he on?

Oh hell. That's right. I forgot that he came back after Lazenby.Jason wrote:Diamonds Are Forever was fuckin' weird as all hell and definitely his worst, for me. It's also the last of the Connery flicks, not You Only Live Twice.
1) From Russia With Love
2) Goldfinger
3) Dr. No
4) Thunderball
5) You Only Live Twice
6) Diamonds Are Forever
Worst is the wrong word. Least favorite. But I'll have to watch Diamonds Are Forever again before rating. Don't recall much about it.
Re: What are you watching?
It took me like 3 Bondathons to remember them all really well. :p
Have you seen them all?
Have you seen them all?
Re: What are you watching?
Yeah. But only one bondathon before now. Before that I'd seen them out of order and sometimes years apart.
Re: What are you watching?
My rankings are always a little different when I do a Bondathon. A lot of them shift, but they generally don't move much more than 2 or 3 spots.
Re: What are you watching?
I'm gonna try to fit Spectre in tonight to finish the Bondathon. I got my DVDs rearranged in order from favorite to least favorite right now. Just pending Spectre.

Re: What are you watching?
Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd are the worst. So weird.
Not removing until John Elway is fired.
Re: What are you watching?
Same. Thunderball, Goldfinger and For Your Eyes Only are always near the top. FYEO was my introduction to Bond. Probably why I like it so much.

Re: What are you watching?
Same 4-6, but I'd put Goldfinger #1 and after rewatching it last night I might put Dr. No at #2.Jason wrote:Diamonds Are Forever was fuckin' weird as all hell and definitely his worst, for me. It's also the last of the Connery flicks, not You Only Live Twice.

Re: What are you watching?
I liked it more with the second viewing. I still don't care for the history they added between Bond and Blofeld.Jason wrote:I'm gonna try to fit Spectre in tonight to finish the Bondathon. I got my DVDs rearranged in order from favorite to least favorite right now. Just pending Spectre.

I hate the opening to For Your Eyes Only so much, but the movie was overall awesome. It's in my top ten, and will be ranked a little higher in my new rankings.Monster wrote:Same.

Agreed. Blofeld deserved better.Jason wrote:I hate the opening to For Your Eyes Only so much, but the movie was overall awesome.

Re: What are you watching?
All three are in my top ten. This Bondathon is the first where Goldfinger finally passed Dr. No. It's practically a coin flip.Headhunter wrote:Same 4-6, but I'd put Goldfinger #1 and after rewatching it last night I might put Dr. No at #2.Jason wrote:Diamonds Are Forever was fuckin' weird as all hell and definitely his worst, for me.

Re: What are you watching?
It's really a shame the way he went out. Blofeld is one of the greatest villains in movie history. In any genre. They had a golden opportunity to kill him off in any way they want in one last SPECTRE-focused movie, and they kill him off in 4 minutes with a comedic bit. Terrible.Monster wrote:Agreed.

Gene Simmons in drag looks like a fat uglier Cher.

On Her Majesty's Secret Service
Lazenby has grown on me over the few times I've watched this. Couldn't stand him at first.
