    Machine that goes ping! Bond’s glass jar grenade.

    Music “Kowloon Bay”

    Isn‘t it Ka Long?

    Kowloon is in Hong Kong

    That's what it's called in the score

    Carver mocking Wai Lin's martial arts was improvised

    Miss Lin? Shouldn't it be Miss Wai?

    “If she blinks, kill her.” That could be a very dangerous order if one of those henchmen are really into doing their job perfectly :))

    For me a shortcoming of the production design of the Stealth Ship interior is that it lacks the hyper-real 'wow' impact that a Ken Adam set would have had. It's techno and steely but lacks an in-your-face quality.
    Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

    Agreed, Adam would have done this 100% better

    It’s funny, Carver is the opposite of Drax. Stressed under pressure.

    Time intervals very DAF....

    Music “A Tricky Spot For 007” Called that on the CD, combines smaller cues in film

    Still pretty impressed at it though.

    It's a measure of how effective Gupta is as a sub-villain that I really *like* it when he gets his...

    Michelle Yeoh really *owns* this film in the action stakes..

    I'd really like the Royal Navy to do another apperance in a Bond film

    Love Michael Byrne! No idea why a Vice-Admiral is in the ops room of a deployed vessel though??
  • Shady TreeShady Tree London, UKPosts: 2,998MI6 Agent
    T minus 5 minutes... and counting...

    Yes, that's very DAF (on the oil rig)

    The action relies far too much on automatic fire in this fight :#

    Yeah, but the Slomos are unnecessary.
    I hate them in HK movies

    He really helps convey a sense that the tide has turned on the villain now...

    She definitely kicks ass more than the majority of other “Bond Girls”. The “hiyah” every time she kicks someone is a bit comedic though :))
