Can anyone help me. I'm looking for the title of the movie that opens with Bond flying a small airplane, and flies it through a building to lure in his pursuant, then needs to land for fuel and says to the station attendant, "Fill it up." The details are a little foggy, but I'm sure someone knows the movie I'm thinking about.
Thanks.

The Man With the Golden Gun,
he impersonates as Torres ("what a name full of ..."
yerssot
that's ok; hope you like the movie
Evy_O
I admit in shame that I didn't remember that *hides behind random person* bag
yerssot
evy... it's a pre-title sequence, you can't guess those
Evy_O
what's that? I don't recognise the english term
yerssot
those little sequences before the "real" movie starts, they aren't that easily related to the story
Evy_O
ooooh... and how did you know?
Ahnold
Huh??? It's not "TMWTGG"! It's Octopussy!
yerssot
*smacks forhead* I knew this! ARGH
TMWTGG starts with a dude getting shot by scaramanga as a game
this stupid mistake makes me feel so dirty and making me look (more) dumb
I'm dumbening!...wait... dumbening isn't even word
Ahnold
Oh no!!! And now that guy has gone to watch "TMWTGG" instead of the FAR superior "Octopussy" fear
Only joking - don't worry about it yerss! Fear not - your reputation remains intact!
For now
...
yerssot
I had a reputation?
actually, TMWTGG is better than Octo, cause they have Lee in it
Ahnold
True - but Octopussy has a better stroyline, better action, less embarassing jokes, no J W Peppah etc ...
yerssot
hmm, true in that view... had a 00 dying, which is always a good thing, but some parts were rather dull
Ahnold
The plot IS a bit confusing, yeah ... but then again, I didn't wince in embarassment as much while sitting through "Octopussy" {well, except for that Tarzan yell bit ... what was THAT all about?}
yerssot
well, bond stories aren't known for having a GOOD plot (after a few perhaps) or having a CLEAR plot
Ahnold
I pretty much understand all the Bond plots ... EXCEPT for "Octopussy" {something about jewel smuggling and a bomb?!} One of the most non-sensical plots, though, has to be OHMSS: Blofeld is holding the world to ransom with biological weapons - and all he asks for is a pardon for his past crimes, and that his title of count be recognised ... WHAT? Quite a step down after trying to take over the world in the previous film ...
yerssot
perhaps he would gain new advantages when being a count?
The Redeemer
And there's me looking for a new sig!!!
yerssot
it's still the old one
The Redeemer
Tomorrow...
yerssot
that's in 1hour 45minutes
The Redeemer
You just can't wait, can ya???
yerssot
I'm a curious little boy
The Redeemer
That has gotta be THE understatement of the JB fourms...EVER!!!
yerssot
lets record it
The Redeemer
Stick it on MP3 and send it to me, old boy...
yerssot
but then you know my voice
The Redeemer
The voice of Ernst Stavros Blofeld...
yerssot
I can actually do an ok-ish impression of him
Ahnold
Well there HAVE been 5 Blofelds - which one in particular can you imitate yerss?
yerssot
I think it's the one from thunderball
Evy_O
Blofeld makes his first appearance in YOLT
Thunderball has Emilio Largo
perhaps you mean
"James Bond. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Ernst Stavro Blofeld. They told me you were assasinated in Hong Kong".
yerssot
now even evy knows I'm wrong... this is so depressing
gotta pay more attention again, yes I ment YOLT, sorry
The Redeemer
Five..that many??? Discounting Mr Von Sydow in the CANONless NSNA, there are only THREE...
yerssot
and donald for being a good guy too
Ahnold
Fair enough - if you discount Von Sydow, that leaves 4: Eric Pohlmann {the voice of Blofeld in "FRWL" and "Thunderball"}, Donald Pleasance, Telly Savalas, and Charles Gray. So ... four.
Ahnold
We see Blofeld's FACE for the first time in that film, yes - but the character previously appeared in "FRWL" and "Thunderball" ...
yerssot
but she's right, I ment the phrase
The Redeemer
What phrase was that???
yerssot
"Allow me to introduce myself... I am ... Ernst....Stavro ... Blofeld"
Evy_O
I have that sound bit on MP3
that's it! I'm outta here! just coz you can't accept I'm so much better than you schmoll
'appearance' hints for seeing the guy
yerssot
yeah, I wonder how you got it
I just said you were better than me
actually... you do seem him, just not his face
Evy_O
someone sent it to me
really? where?
hmm.... here: "'appearance' hints for seeing the guy's face"... there, satisfied?
yerssot
I want it too
just above
guys never are, that's the problem
Evy_O
I'll tell him to send it to you too
I can't see it
stop quoting me
yerssot
you're too kind
that you knew it was wrong
fly to the moon
(topic you see
)
Evy_O
and I even have more sounds now if you wanna
I sure did
that's hardly a topic
yerssot
really? I gotta go and collect again
so you're smarter
but it does mention him flying
Ahnold
TOPIC
Wait ... the Q has been answered. There is no topic now ...
Let the chaos begin then!!!
yerssot
oh great, now evy will report it again
Evy_O
*hits report button*
yerssot
see! I told you so
what about we keep this thread for other pre-title sequence questions?
Ahnold
There's already a thread for that ...
yerssot
but this is specific for questions
Ahnold
Hey man - welcome back!
yerssot
yay! hope you can stay around now RA
Doctor Lecter
That's not the Man with the Golden Gun.
It's "Octopussy".
yerssot
yeah, it got corrected a bit later down page 1:
