    Pinder, Leiter, Paula and Q are a team around Bond. None except Q makes much of an impression, but Paula's the prettiest!

    I wonder if the diving hatch under the ship is based on the Italian commandoes who did that to sabotage shipping in Gibraltar during WWII?

    Peter Hunt's use of wipe transitions gives the film an epic storybook quality.

    Vargas is a poor henchman, but perhaps coming after Oddjob that's inevitable
  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 22,330MI6 Agent
    Vargas is the Elvis of TB.
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 37,854Chief of Staff
    Hey TB2, did you hear the Rum Collins reference?

    Vargas is the creepiest henchman ever.
