    Landscape looks like Jordan.
    Definitely not Afghanistan.

    Where has Asp9mm gone?
    Thought he may have gone to have a weep in solidarity with Dalton?

    This is the last raid scene in a Bond film so far. I really like them and I hope they come back.

    Sorry, but this set looks cheap!

    Art Malik, later to play a villain in “True Lies” among many other parts, of course

    Kamran, the flawed romantic hero in this film who, if this was real history, might later have led the Taliban! An example of how the film-makers attempts to be topical at the time, now date the movie badly.

    Some Mujahedin were not Islamic fundamentalists. The Northern alliance is an example of this.

    I guess Kamran might have been in the more liberal wing, then. He joins the party at the end, briefly acknowledging M and Gogol, as if to imply that, rough and ready though he is, he has some part to play on the international stage of the Bond films' fantasy world.

    Trucking with heroin makes him seem flawed, despite his rationalisation for it.
    Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

    Coming up to the only exciting part in the film. I might watch that before bailing to watch Aladdin.

    Nice subtle acting by the two Afghans on the ramp wondering where TD came from...

    TLD. By two or three years.

    Exactly. Seems like Rambo is the one that borrowed from this.

    And, by contrast, Rambo amped up the Russian-hating in its fantasy violence. The Russian villains in Bond tended to be 'rogue' Russians.

    And Koskov survives THAT?

    'Hercules Takes Off' is a nice cue. There are plenty of good little bits and pieces in these action sequences.

    Music "Inflight Fight" on the original release.

    Earlier "Air Bond" not on the original release (was caught up in the film, didn't post it at the right time)
