FYEO was a revelation to me as I think a 13-year-old boy: I had no idea that there could be a Bond movie I didn’t like!

Wow, I’m already in nostalgic for that last Bond movie I previously had no interest in seeing.

OHMSS is the single best Bond movie and the dude did fine in a rough role, being undercut by that ‘other fellow’ schtick. If he stuck it out he’d be beloved today. I hadn’t though about f_shit’s note about how well he played final scene, he’s right but it made me think it would have been been ‘fun’ to see Dalton’s take, man is always interesting. Whichever movie was Dalton blowing up Henry Silva due to Leighter getting fed to the sharks was good and gave him a chance to do acting stuff. But that terrible anti-charismatic actor they had as Leighter undercut things. Peter Lord was the perfect dude for the role and a great oft-overlooked part of my Dr No worked. I wonder if the Bond actors felt threatened by having somebody that effortlessly cool around so they immediately replaced him that nebbish.

DAF is so odd, Bond being fooled by a mirror and Howard Hughes being normal, actually, are standouts. Kicking the cat was a rare example of Bind being good at his job.

Oh I looked at Wikipedia and remember I HAVE seen Octopussy, that’s the one with the Indian version of Oddjob. For years I had a vague recollection of that character but attributed him to a non-Bond movie that also had John Steed in it for some reason.

Isn't that the guy with the gun that had a bulletproof face shield and Bond kept shooting the shield instead of his exposed legs and torso?
