    Parts of Solitaire’s lines were dubbed by Nikki van der Zyl. Don’t know for sure which lines, but I seem to recall it’s later in the film. Could be wrong

    Harris so obviously holding his metal appendage with his own hand under his jacket sleeve
    Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

    Lon Satton as Strutter. Few films as actor, more of a singer and musician

    Really? I suppose Jane Seymour's own voice quality is close enough to Ms van der Zyl's for the transition not to be noticeable.

    The whole section of the movie in the novelty shop and car park feels a little small scale/ 'TV movie'. The 'tailing' sequence picks up the pace again. The driver with the wolverine side burns... same style sideburns as a middle-aged stuntman heavy in the DAF PTS/OHMSS.

    Parts of LALD has a TV feel to it. It's strange how so many compare LTK to Miami Vice, but no-one talks about LALD.

    Yes, but I don't know which lines

    The only principal black character who isn't a villain or under the villain's influence. I guess there isn't enough room in the movie for both this character and Leiter.

    I habe seen the movie many times on the big screen.
    Never felt like tv to me.

    But on a tv, I tend to agree with you

    Whisper is in the book, but in a different context

    Barbel: The repetitive background club music as Bond checks out his bungalow room. That's on the extended version of the album?

    He aged pretty well, all things considering.

    Indeed he did. Thanks Gymkata

    Seemed twice now that he has a normal clasp and not the diver‘s clasp on the Rolex, or am I wrong?

    Moore ad-libbed the line about licking Rosie into shape
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 37,854Chief of Staff
    The “small-headed man” line has been very useful in the quote game

    Moore definitely not wearing a Sub with Date cyclops here

    Rosie is a weak character . LALD needs a strong female character, but Rosie is dumb and scared.

    Who sent Bond the card with the Queen of Cups upside-down?
