Evy_O
what is it with countries and adding the number 007 on the titles? I think it's stupid confused

and Spanish, "The World is Not Sufficient"! Hilarious! laugh1

btw... note the FRWL ones, they are really silly!
Love Greetings From Moscow? stick out tongue
Love and Kisses From Russia? laughing out loud
007 In Istanbul? roll eyes (sarcastic)

Kaleanae
Spanish, el mundo no es suficiente
not Sufficient is the same as not enough but enough would translate to no es bastante and in Spanish is doesn't make sense

yerssot
actually, I gotta object here...

"Love and Kisses From Russia"? it's a standard saying we have here which means both love and kisses (in a friendly way) just like "From Russia with Love" is sort of a saying; so it's a nice translation stick out tongue

and

On the Secret Service of Her Majesty: that's cause we barely use a genitive in our titles

Evy_O
I thought that the titles would make sense in the national language of the country but they're still hilarious laughing out loud

yerssot
I think operation Thunder makes more sense than Thunderball stick out tongue
