A lot of things.
The Vegas setting made the whole thing feel sleazy.
Connery was out-of-shape.
Blofeld was miscast.
Conney's pay demand was so high that they didn't have enough budget for special effects.
It's still watchable, it's just too campy and low-rent for its own good. I think the studio panicked after OHMSS didn't make enough money, so they over-corrected with this one by throwing in too much OTT stuff.
>The Vegas setting made the whole thing feel sleazy.
I quite like the occasional fish out of water story where Bond needs to deal with the scum of the Americas. Live and Let Die and Licence to Kill have the same vibe. Can't help but feel that DaF would have been better if George stuck around and they leaned harder on the revenge aspect.
>The Vegas setting made the whole thing feel sleazy.
Yeah Bond showing up to crappy grimy Vegas ''''''casinos''''' in his pristine suit like it was Monaco was a fricking laugh.
Las Vegas was kinda grubby and sleazy back then and it shows, so the setting for much of the movie is lame.
Sean Connery is phoning his performance in, clearly in it only for the large paycheque.
Some of the character actions in the movie are strange. For example, why did Blofeld dress up like a woman to escape the casino? Nobody knows what he looks like except Bond, who isn't there when Blofeld leaves. And why did Tiffany start following Blofeld out of the casino? She never met him before. Did she follow Blofeld only because he looked like Mrs. Doubtfire, walking through the casino in drag?
And as previously stated, the climax of the film on the oil rig is lame and falls flat. Although the scene at the end where Mr. Wint blows up is cute.
I like all bond movies, I'm not a homosexual so I don't hold any resentment towards any of them, I haven't seen the blonde guy's films though.
My favorites are FRWL, Thunderball, OHMSS and TMWTGG
The 7 James Bond must sees to watch if you're new to Bond and in the correct order:
>The Living Daylights >Dr. No >From Russia With Love >Goldfinger >Never say Never Again (LOL stay mad shitters) >Goldeneye >Casino Royale
If you absolutely cannot stomach a non Eon film because you're a pedestrian that actually think csmp-city aka thunderball is a good movie, then the list should look like this:
>The Living Daylights >Dr. No >From Russia With Love >Goldfinger >Goldeneye >Casino Royale >Skyfall
It's one of the closest bonds to the books, abd the best Craig movie. What would you don't instead? It's not a Roger Moore film is it? It better not be...
I just don't like camp. Its fine as an entertaining adventure movie/children's csrtoon. But I don't think it makes for a compelling and true bond experience when looking at either the connery films or original noveld
This might be cringe, but a couple nights ago I was hit with a lightning bolt of libidinal creative energy, and was possessed to write an outline/treatment for a new Bond film, doing 80% over the stretch of a couple hours abd revisions the next morning. If I'm not a cringelord, I think I might seriously have struck kino, with what I hope is a seriously interesting take on Bond and subtlety terrifying villain, more in line with the novels.
Should I post it?
>Should I post it?
tell me who you would cast as bond and I'll decide
Bond? Not sure yet, they need to look 38 and must be British. The villain? A 50 something Henry caville doing his best Patrick Bateman impression after reading blood meridian.
Lmao. Pastebin won't let me post because of "offensive content." God i hate out modern world but at least it's a sign I'm moving in the right direction
Currently on my journey to watch all Bond movies (including non-Eon). I've seen >one Connery, FRWL >three Moore (LALD, TMWTGG and Octopussy) >All Brosnan >All Craig except QoS
I'm planning on watching QoS then the two Dalton films. Some of my thoughts >Brosnan is pretty overhyped but fun >Craig is probably the worst Bond >Tomorrow never Dies is better than Goldeneye >Casino Royale is very overrated >I don't get the Moore hype and don't understand how they kept him for 7 fricking films
Thank you for reading my blog
Dalton is Fricking excellent and as far as I'm concerned the Dalton films and Brosnan films are in the same continuity. The Living Daylights is often overlooked but i think it's in the top 5 for me
Diamonds is one of the worst but one of the most entertaining.
Diamonds and A View to a Kill are both horrible but fun to watch.
Golden Gun and OHMSS are horrible and boring to watch
It's criminally underrated and my favorite Connery Bond. That said the climax is pretty weak and some of the special effects are embarrassing.
only the pre-credits scene and the elevator fight are good
wrong
old hag
Worst girl. Moneypenny deserves to win the 007 waifubowl
Some nice cheeks too. If only there were brains…
this
it's fricking great
campy hilarious blofeld
plenty o'toole
vegas baby
It is damn good. I love how they essentially say the Moon landings were bullshit in it.

Looking back at, Sean was really out of shape.
Connery was fine, Blofeld was fine, Vegas settimg was great
no, yes, no
>The Vegas setting made the whole thing feel sleazy.

nice editing dude lmao

These literal homosexuals are the two most dogshit villains in 007 history. Was it some kind of farce?
They were largely effective, as Bond henchmen go. They killed a lot of people in this movie.
They were great
They were great
lol you're a gay
mr wint and mr kidd are kino
Some of the best Bond side-characters ever. They make the whole movie.
>Was it some kind of farce?
uhm yes
The cover-art went really well. I got a lot of good memories from it as a kid.
You mean what went so right.
Bruce Glover is still alive, btw.
I like all bond movies, I'm not a homosexual so I don't hold any resentment towards any of them, I haven't seen the blonde guy's films though.
My favorites are FRWL, Thunderball, OHMSS and TMWTGG
>not a homosexual
>OHMSS and TMWTGG
Lazenby and Rigg have great chemistry on screen yes, and fricking Cristopher Lee as a villain makes for another great movie.
TMWTGG is better than the entire history of the United States of America.
kys
>OHMSS
>TMWTGG
2 of the worst in the franchise
>best music
>best chasing scenes
>good girls
>cool setting
You might be gay.
Boring. It's one of the few I have no interest in watching again. Something like TMWTGG is really dumb but hilariously campy, DAF was just boring.

>NSNA

jesus christ zoomer
>80 Flickr
4/7 are connery
>"zoomer"
Lol, no. This is a beginners list. Otherwise I'd say to just watch every single film
What do you have against moore? The spy who loved me and for your eyes only are objectively good, while moonraker and octopussy are underrated.
And i'm saying that as someone whose favourite bond is dalton.
I just don't like camp. Its fine as an entertaining adventure movie/children's csrtoon. But I don't think it makes for a compelling and true bond experience when looking at either the connery films or original noveld

use a pastebin before all your shit is gone mate
Why, exactly? It's in comment mode not editing permission?
or is there something moronic about using Google docs that I am not aware of?
>Why, exactly? It's in comment mode not editing permission?
not sure, just a precaution that's all

what the frick really? what is the world turning into
>Should I post it?
tell me who you would cast as bond and I'll decide
The actual list of best Bond movies are all the ones from the 60s, when they were actually making the movies around the time the novels were set.
Currently on my journey to watch all Bond movies (including non-Eon). I've seen
