Title explains it all. (this is also a blatant attempt to spark conversation in these slow times)
I'll start.
Most of the Brosnan era.

    When did this happen? There is a laser gun shootout in Moonraker, but Bond doesn't get involved.

    I will add to the list, driving a motorcycle off a cliff to catch an aeroplane.

    Didn't Bond get involved in the Space station battle and
    Use a laser gun ?

    OK: Everything in MR that takes place outside earth's atmosphere.

    Bond uses hand-to-hand combat in the space station battle, and I believe the only gun he uses is the wrist-dart gun to kill Drax. Dr. Goodhead uses the laser gun.

    Surviving a fall off a very tall bridge after being shot.

    Using a moon buggy as an escape vehicle.

    I'm sure bond uses the laser gun in the shuttle to destroy the globes.
    Scaramangas fun house has to be up there.
    And the card game in CR.... Purely as M's plan just doesn't make sense. https://youtu.be/byku-4Sl4zE

    I wonder, Does he dress to the left or the right ? ;)

    Sorry Matt S, I thought Bond used a laser on the space
    Station.

    Yes, Bond does use the space shuttle's laser gun, but I still don't recall him using a laser gun in the space station battle.

    Well he did hold a laser gun..... I bet rm felt a bit absurd in that outfit, though he does have form for wearing yellow! I wonder if he picked the colour?

    the absurdities begin as soon as he bumps into a naked female Tarzan upon arrival on Dr No's island
    getting captured by a dragon that's really a tank a few minutes later is rather absurd too
    its these absurdities that elevate the movie above the seemingly normal detective story that had made up the first hour, and turn it into the prototypical Bond film
    but yes there would be ever increasing heights of absurdity to come, otherwise we'd be disappointed
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    Another absurdity ..... In Goldfinger the car chase after the woman........ Imagine that
    ....... A woman Driving ! :D

    I'm relieved by the second part of your post, for a minute there I thought you were about to completely attack our hero :))

    About yellow, I believe it was recommended by NASA.
    I think it was a yellow-orange colour and iit ended up being used for Drax's henchmen instead of the actual NASA rescuers.

    Believe it has to do something with the sun, but do take that with several spoonfuls of salt.
