    More unapologetic "red-blooded heterosexual" male fantasy (to quote Fleming)

    The set up of the shot seems to show Bond as well endowed, through the rippling water... possibly prompting a debate to parallel the infamous Chew Me question...

    That 'plunking' guitar arrangement for the Bond theme again...

    I‘ve never understood the hype.
    I find her pretty average looking, though nice lady!

    The bureaucratic technician who's a stickler for punctuality and a surveillance geek... epitomises the soulless technocratic bureaucracy which is part of what makes the enemy organisation villainous

    Connery saying "Really" is perhaps his best line reading in the film

    Visibly sped up

    And crappy rearprojection. Aki certainly can‘t drive!

    Not a huge fan of her look... though her image and persona pander to the popularity of a pulp magazine fantasy about dominant German women which was found on porn shelves at the time...

    The helicopter. Certainly not Fleming, but just brilliant!

    And Spectre used a second heli to film it!

    I'm behind by a good minute at least.

    One thing that always bugs me about scenes where you can see footage on a camera (like in Aki's car): where's the camera mounted that's providing that footage? Is there another helicopter flying to film the other helicopter doing the work?

    Exactly. There's the same thing later where there appears to be an external camera in space somewhere, capturing the space capsule business...

    I'm sorry I haven't been able to join you tonight. But I'm slightly dispointed to see you all doing well without me :p

    The shot of Bond on the roof fighting the guys works wonderfully on the big screen

    Love Aki's chic casual look for the docks scene... the consummate 60s action girl.
