  1. Have I posted that top pic before and if not why not? I love Live and Let Die, one of my favourites and, along with The Spy Who Loved Me, arguably the best of Moore's Bond films.

  3. I've just finished watching LIVE AND LET DIE, as it happens, which is what inspired me to post about the divine Ms Seymour. I wasn't all that impressed by it the first time I watched it, but I found it improved a great deal with a repeat viewing. Then again, the fact that I'd watched the dire DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER the night before might have had something to do with it...

    1. Oh dear yes. I hate Diamonds Are Forever

    2. And I've now watched THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN, and am struggling to decide which I loathed more -- it or DIAMONDS. LIVE AND LET DIE is definitely a gem sandwiched between two mountains of excrement.

    3. I'll need to put together a little post about my impressions on this unofficial Tom Mankiewicz trilogy of Bonds before I lose all memory of them.

  4. Yup, another I hate! Diamonds, Golden Gun, Moonraker, View To A Kill, The World Is Not Enough and Die Another Day are probably the worst offerings in the series...and Thunderball is, for much of the time, really dull.

    1. I'm slowly making my way through the series in chronological order, and I'm aware that I've got some real turkeys to look forward to. However, I'm comforting myself with the notion that the next one on the list is the more highly regarded THE SPY WHO LOVED ME.

      Agreed about THUNDERBALL, by the way. I think that after the high of FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE, each of Connery's subsequent films played right into the law of diminishing returns, hitting absolute rock bottom with his last two.
