Bit off a bit more than they could chew plot wise, shoehorning about 17 exotic countries into the setting. Then off to bloody space.
Jaws went a bit Wile E Coyote in this one. Got the spunkiest chick in the end though.
Baddie "Drax" with identical accent to the dwarf from Game of Thrones was a bit distracting. Good baddie though. Well spoken and loquacious without being all overly convivial like Christopher Lee about 3 films prior.
There were no fat people in the 1970's. McDonalds a fledgling operation yet to transform large swathes of humanity into corpulent puddingshits.
The only purpose for women in life according to 70's Bond World was to please men. There were no ugly women. Or if there were, they served no purpose in the lives of men therefore were invisible.

Of course, the olden days movie posters are rad as shit compared to the half-arsed dogshit they listlessly trundle out these days.

I actually started liking the trash Bonds more than the good Bonds a while ago. There's a pantomime quality to them you don't get in modern movies.

My favorite Bond because I view it as a parody of the franchise. So much cheese.

2 villains lairs, both 10/10 First, the jungle one: HELL YES. What are the spunky women doing there? Are they henchwomen? Why do they all look like supermodels? BECASUSE 70'S BABY Then the baddies other evol lair, the one in space. As Bond villains lairs go, it doesnt get much better than this. - plans for world domination on multiple screens: CHECK.
- a giant drongo henchman: CHECK.
- armed guards dressed like Teletubbies: CHECK.
- baddie sitting on mental baddie throne: CHECK.

........just a thought......Jaws from this movie could have taken on Jaws the shark........could have been a blockbuster movie........too late Hollywood.
He did bite a shark to death in The Spy Who Loved Me two years earlier.

Enjoyed it the first time I saw it, enjoyed the last time I saw it. Never really not enjoyed a Bond movie. Great film techniques, great music, great times watching them in Japan with other idiots.
