  I think Bond stopped to be a trendsetter after OHMSS. We get Bond light in DAF, blaxploitation in LAD, kung fu in TMWTGG, greatest hits Bond in TSWLM, star wars Bond in MR, Indiana Jond in OP, 80's drugs in LTK, Terminator in TND, Bondman Begins in CR and James Bourned in QoS.

  The funny thing is if you watch the Flint and Matt Helm movies, they largely predicted where the Bonds would go in the 1970s.

  
  Precisely! Which is something I have lamented ever since (and a primary reason I'm not a big fan of most of the Roger Moore Bond films).

  Yeah, I would have preferred Bond to stay out of that arena, which was handled fine by Flint, Helm, and the rest. I think Roger Moore gets a bad rap though since it all really started with Diamonds are Forever more or less aping the camp.
