    The buildup to the title sequence s good.

    One of the worst Bond songs. Never liked it, and it hasn't grown on me in nearly 20 years.

    Kleinman turns the Korean dominatrix into an ice effigy. Channels Binder's AVTAK sequence a bit, but with Kleinman the ice chicks make greater thematic sense.
    Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

    Yes, title sequence is good.

    I live how the song builds up again from nothing - violins - drums - bass voice
    President of the 'Misty Eyes Club'.

    Dalton - the weak and weepy Bond!

    The visuals for this title scene are actually quite good. The way the love action bits of Bond being tortured are intersected with everything else is well done.

    General Moon is good, both character and actor

    The buildup of the song and the visuals are good. The song is crap.

    General Moon is a well respected HK actor!
    President of the 'Misty Eyes Club'.

    Dalton - the weak and weepy Bond!

    General Moon is a kind of Gogol figure... senior within enemy ranks but posited as relatively fair-minded. Hard to imagine a 'liberal' North Korean general like this irl.

    Watched the Rush Hour series the other day and Lee’s (Jackie Chan) Captain also plays the General here.

    Michael Madsen in the DMZ- he's stuck in the middle with M

    Still don’t understand why the diamonds weren’t removed from Zao??

    The Grizzly Adams look suits Pierce in this last phase of his Bond career.

    How far are you? I had to stop for technical problems.

    Judi great as ever

    Why did Bond dispose of his cyanide years ago? Unprofessional.

    Bond doing finger stabbing pointing at M. Madsen does the same gesture later. Overly mannered.

    She comes up to Brosnan's shoulder. And Craig's eyes.
  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 22,334MI6 Agent
    Thanks.

    I think it's Bond's style to throw away the Cyanide.

    Music- “Kiss Of Life” Not on OST

    The heart stopping is the first time this movie goes too far
