    So far, this has mainly been a collection of scenes that should have been on the cutting room floor, labeled 'extraneous'. There's no plot, just a bunch of knee-bent running about.

    They've started out the way they're going to carry on.

    If this is the whole film, I don't know if I'm going to make it.

    How do you think I feel?! I’m watching this completely sober!

    The car chase is as good as any in the 60s Bond films.
    Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

    Things change soon. They don't necessarily get better, they just change

    Milk float as enemy vehicle. Anticipates Necros and his exploding milk bottles in TLD.

    I do like a bit of Barbara Bouchet as Moneypenny.

    And here comes my favourite line: "I have a very low threshold of death, my doctor says I can't have bullets enter my body at any time. What if I said I was pregnant?"
  • Thunderbird 2Thunderbird 2 East of Cardiff, Wales.Posts: 2,818MI6 Agent
    I find it funny Barbera Bouchet plays Moneypenny Junior.... she has a passing resemblance to Lois Maxwell’s daughter who was Lady Victoria in Moonraker.

    Was there any point a plot or an atempt at having one at any point in the movie-making process? Does anyone know?

    The explosions with the petroleum induced black smoke are in the style of FRWL explosions.

    They change cos we switch directors (and writers)

    Sir James effectively takes over the role of M back at the office.

    I am still asking me, why Sellers was in the PTS and what connection it has with that mess of a movie :s

    We meet Terence Cooper, the "straight" 007 (who could maybe have played it for real?)

    Woody Allen as the schlemiel. His usual sort of routine at the time but very funny.

    It was clipped out of a scene later and moved to the front of the movie- you can probably spot from where it was taken

    Gymkata, where are the Bouchet .gifs to make this mildly enjoyable?

    You're a minute or so ahead I think. I'm just starting his bedroom scene now.

    Cooper's bearing is the closest to the Connery model.

    I can see it. He has the look for the role along with the voice. Was he ever in consideration once Connery left?

    Not as far as I know.
