  The expression on his face after Xenia shoots the Servernaya workers is priceless.
  
  
  I agree though, he should've been spared and used in another film. He's a cool character B-)

  Have you ever heard of the Emancipation Proclamation?"

  Agreed a Great Character, Although I never got the gay vibe. )

  After watching Goldeneye again, I think it's a real shame that they didn't spare Ourumov the fate of Bond's gun and use the character in another Brosnan outing. He is by far the most interesting and funny character in GE and I think Gottfried John did a fantastic job with him.
  
  He would have made a much better villain for Brosnan's second film than Elliot Carver and as M described Ourumov as thinking of himself as the next "iron man of Russia" I think he could have made the transition from henchman to antagonist easily.
  
  And in the spirit of the same actors being used in more than one Bond film, wouldn't it be great to see Gottfried John turn up as the head of Quantum against Craig?
  
  (Just one question, am I right in thinking Ourumov was meant to be gay? The way he puckers his lips at Brosnan in the PTS was just superb) :007)

  
  The way he "puckers his lips" means he's gay? Hmmm....never gave that a thought at all!

  Probably more the way he looks at Brosnan in amazement in the PTS, plus the fact that he could have killed Bond at any point as he chased the plane on the bike. Either way he was far too good a character to kill off in one film.

  Yes, it seemed more like a look of amazement and grudging admiration to me. And I agree that Ourumov was a memorable character that it would have been fun to see more of.
