The Spy Who Loved Me and Moonraker have a sort of orange impending feel of the afternoon about them. The constricting feel of the orange makes them feel sort of bleak and depressing in the globetrotting parts of the movies, and even though there are good points about them and Moonraker has a terrific climax, they can't shake that feeling of an orange dying afternoon
Analogies don't make your review any better.
>analogies arent making your review any better
Why are you attacking me? I'm just stating the truth. The movie has such a strong warm dull orange tone from the space between the scenery and music and dialogue. You want me to pretend it doesn't?
Moonraker is good, you don't need to be hyperbolic about Star Wars to defend it
What the frick are you talking about
bro are you esl, the frick you on about “orange”
That "orange impending feel of the afternoon" is probably the 70s film stock everyone used back then.
Everything was orange and brown back then.
It's Roger Moore's worst Bond film, not because he goes to space, but because the script is awful, the humor isn't funny, and the action scenes are lazy and boring.
Live and Let Die is horrible
No it isn't
It's low rent
That stupid southern sheriff crap brings the movie way way down. I couldn't believe it when that same guy returned for Golden Gun
>It's low rent
It's James Bond stuck in a blaxploitation film, it's supposed to be
frick yeah, I hated that character. But I did love the movie.
I liked him in Golden Gun, he had some funny lines. But yeah in Live and Let Die he's just annoying
Puh-jamma wearin' pointy head detected.
this is probably one of the stupidest and most dangerous stunts in film history for such a low payoff but by god its glorious
Wait this stunt was real? Lmao
Back in the day when everything wasn't green screen and CGI. Imagine being able to say "Yeah I totally ran across a bunch of alligators for the film"
I just always thought they were animatronic/mechanical or he was jumping on hidden platforms
>While searching for locations in Jamaica, the crew discovered a crocodile farm owned by Ross Kananga, after passing a sign warning that "trespassers will be eaten". The farminspired Mankiewicz to name the film's villain after Kananga
>Ross Kananga suggested the stunt of Bond jumping on crocodiles, and was enlisted by the producers to perform it.[3] The scene took five takes to be completed, including one in which the last crocodile snapped at Kananga's heel, tearing his trousers.[5] The production also had trouble with snakes during the voodoo ceremony scene in Jamaica. The script supervisor was so afraid that she refused to be on set with them, an actor fainted while filming a scene where he is killed by a snake, Jane Seymour became terrified as a snake was held up to her face, and Geoffrey Holder only agreed to fall into the snake-filled casket because Princess Alexandra was visiting the set. Another notable incident was when during filming of this scene a dancer who held a snake was bitten, and he dropped the snake, and this grabbed everyone's attention. Meanwhile Seymour was tied up to a stake for this scene, and the loose snake then set its sights on Seymour, who was saved by the film's snake handler, who grabbed it when it was mere inches from Seymour's feet.
kino
It has good slapstick.
>the action scenes are lazy and boring.
the opening parachute scene was about the best action scene in any bond movie. Moonraker blended sci-fi and bond very effectively and it had Richard Kiel.
There are plenty of better stunts and action sequences in the series, the cold open was average at best, and Richard Kiel was far better in The Spy Who Loved Me
It was Moore's best seller.
no that would be view to a kill
first half is alright. 2nd half is embarrassing
>let's just nip into space lol
>training? what training? anyone can do it
She was a trained astronaut and he's 007.
>and he's 007
thanks for clearing that up
? what training? anyone can do it
He's a literal navy commander and you're a rampaging homosexual.
Braces or not?
Careful brother, the next time you watch it she wont have glasses and everyone will call you crazy if you say she did.
They're both good. Star Wars is the best children's space opera of all time. Moonraker is an excellent comedy, and the best movie of the Bond franchise.
Patrician detected. Moonrakers production design is top notch. It arguably has the best Ken Adams set.
I don't like it because it's boring as shit and a waste of time, especially when you could just watch a far superior non-ripoff in The Spy Who Loved Me.
or You Only Live Twice. All three Lewis Gilbert films have near identical storylines just different settings
>The Japan one
>The Ocean one
>The Space one
True, although now that I think about it I can't recall very many details of any of the three movies. I just remember Moonraker being the worst Bond movie save for Spectre.
>I just remember Moonraker being the worst Bond movie save for Spectre
Wrong.
Moonraker, so much better than craigslop.
Kino
Weird movie.
What always made me laugh is how nobody knew this guy was planning on exterminating everyone on Earth. But then the military just happened to have shuttles and troops on standby, with laser guns
Why did Drax even need to go to space to do it? If all you're doing is wiping out the human race, you can just sit in a bunker you don't need a trillion dollar space station
Because it fed into his god complex. Looking down at the world. Determining the fate of everyone on Earth. Judging them all as unworthy, except those he deemed perfect. Then, once everyone else is dead, descending down like angels to repopulate the world
Standard megalomaniacal behavior
He's literally me
At most people should complain it stole the helecopter stunt from Flashman 1967
Jaws did nothing wrong.
didn't she have braces in this scene?
No

Tomorrow Never Dies title song is just the Perry Mason theme.
They lifted it wholesale
How do Craiggays continue to cope?
Let's not talk about He Who Will Never Be James Bond, we have a good thread going no need to ruin it by baiting the casuals
Pathetically as ever.
>die another day tier
>die another day itself is in the tier above that
License is better than Daylights. Russia is better than Thunderball. Quantum and Skyfall are better than anything in Meh tier and below.
It filtered zillions
Craiggays deserve to be humiliated
the book moonraker is about a former SS officer that becomes a millionaire and sells missiles to the british government but actually is planning on tricking them by tampering with the guidance system on the prototype ICBM so when they do a live nuclear test with it it will actually hit London instead of the ocean.
Bit different from the film, the villain being an evil officer getting a new identity was reused in die another day though
the girl in Moonraker had braces once. Nobody can convince me otherwise.
>noo you cant like it because its ripping off starwars reeee
It wasn't ripping off Star Wars, it was capitalizing on the sci-fi resurgence that Star Wars created. So they dropped plans they had with For Your Eyes Only and did Moonraker instead. And the problem with the movie is the pacing, along with the fact that none of the scenes have any cohesion with the ones that follow.
