Watched The Spy Who Loved Me for the first time in a long time. Agent XXX
Proper super villain and villain lair, and I love that submarine Lotus. And Jawsā first outing!
Very enjoyable.

They do say thatās Roger Mooreās best one, but I canāt look past Live and Let Die or The Man With the Golden Gun, personally
Trial of the Chicago 7.
Really enjoyed this true account of 68 anti war demonstration.
Did wonder having watched it what sort of artistic liberty might have been taken. Unbelievable doesnāt look like much. Some great acting and 2 hours flew in.
@k1tsun3 think youād get something out of it for sure.
The judge was a real cunt.
Good acting that. He was though.
They do and it was his first one.
Pretty silly but I loved it.
Some great hair in that film too.
Just watching On Her Majestyās Secret Service now @DavidHillier
Great film as well, so stylish, and Diana Rigg is a wonderful Bond girl.
Also Joanna Lumley is in it!!!
OHMSS had a wonderful musical score.
Diana Rigg is a wonderful Bond girl. @giner described her perfectly as āthe thinking manās crumpetā in the RIP thread
Telly Savalas is a malevolent Blofeld. The role was made for him
Yes absolutely - the score was spot on. Louis Armstrong I mean come onā¦ even the Bond theme was used perfectly.
The alpine ski visuals were superb as well and the film itself was the perfect mix of Sean Connery masculinity and the campiness of Roger Moore. The scene with Bond and the girls having dinner is hilarious as they all think heās gay but you can still take the rest of the film seriously.
Awesome villainās lair as well. What an ending. Shame Lazenby was only Bond for one film, heād have deserved 2-3 or at least.
I do often wonder how Lazenby would have fared with a few more Bond films under his belt. I donāt understand why Connery left after You Only Live twice only to come back for Diamonds are Forever. (So OHMSS was sandwiched in between)
If you thought this had its campy moments, you wanna watch Diamonds are Forever!
Yeah itās weird as Connery left because he didnāt want to be typecast.
I think Lazenby would have been perfect to carry the chalice after Connery. He was so good.
Iām currently working my way through all the bond movies for the first time since I was a kid in the 90s! Iām not following a specific order - just watching whoever I feel like. A Moore movie here, a Dalton film there etc.
Iām enjoying them all equally, although Iāll say that the fight choreography in OHMSS was the best of the old Bonds by far. The fights in A Spy Who Loved Me was laughable
You should see the fights in You Only Live twice. Connery fights the Rockās grandad (yes, that Rock) and uses a couch to beat him up!
Iāve read the book to that. Faithful to the text? Ian Fleming would be turning in his grave!
The first Bond film they took on after the books was Licence to Kill. I actually really liked this one. It really just felt like an unadultered 80s action flick. Great movie.
Yes! Agreed! Thatās what got me into my Bond binge at the moment. It happened to be on Danish tv randomly and my mum and I watched it and enjoyed it so much!
Felt more like an 80s American cop show like Miami Vice or something than a Bond film but it worked so well. I really think Timothy Dalton was a good Bond. He was Daniel Craigās Bond before Daniel Craig. Serious, dark, gritty, no campiness.
God I love Bond.
100% spot on.
Goodness, at times like this, I miss @Persona
Heās awesome to talk to about all things Bond
Same! Where did you go @Persona?!
Iām gonna watch some more of the Brosnan bonds. I loved Goldeneye and Tomorrow Never Dies. The World Is Not Enough is passable but Die Another Day was absolute shocking.
The only Bond film I havenāt ever seen and I, proudly, donāt think I ever will
Yeah itās dreadful. Really awful. Fucking Madonna as well.
Lemmy the movie
Irrelevant bollocks. Loved it.
Richard Jewell.
Brilliantly poignant film.
I think Clint Eastwood has become my favourite director.
