    Richard Kiel had earlier been in a comedy film called "Silver Streak" where his hulking presence on a train scared poor Gene Wilder & Richard Pryor. It's used more effectively here.

    This is a really good looking movie. Just great lighting/cinematography throughout. It's so much more polished than the prior two films .

    I disagree, TMWTGG is brilliant!

    Love the sound effects for this fight... they really sell it... It's all wittier than the FRWL train fight, if less impactful...
    Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

    Moore's early Bonds often looked cheap. This one puts the money on the screen

    Q! or should I say Major Boothroyd?

    Fun Fact about the Lotus:

    Chapman has tried to approach EON but with no response, he parked the car in front of EON‘s office.
    The call came soon

    And Anja‘s luggage is Barbara Bach‘s personal luggage which was auctioned off some months ago.

    Barbara Bach has a great silky voice... but she doesn't vary her tone much from one situation to another.

    She holds the same rank as Q :-)

    I actually never understood the fascination for Naomi.

    I find her looks in the face creepy.
    But she looks great in that bikini!

    In the novelization Stromberg is Swedish. A Swedish villan - another reason to love TSWLM

    Chopin, one of the Nocturnes

    What is that music? Bach?

    Maybe Naomi's OTT make-up is to do with her vampish role as femme fatale.

    British movies in this time period had a definite caste system-

    Carry On
    Hammer horror
    Pink Panther
    James Bond

    You can track various actresses (and actors) careers through these series.

    1975's 'Jaws' certainly casts a shadow over this film... recurring use of sharks...
