Who was your worst henchman from a Bond film?
I say Jaws. The idea was really cool and he was a great character but he was just bunged in for a bit of slapstick.
Eric Kriegler or Vargas were probably the most unmemorable.
yerssot
I think that the problem mostly was cause Jaws appeared in Moore-movies. If he appeared in a Connery-movie, you could bet that there would be a 5 minute fight with lots of chairs breaking
I thought the two of DAF were quite silly
Doc Ock
Jaws fell in love with a blonde in pig tails called Dolly.
How dumb was that???
Etrigan
Hell yeah. OHMSS was good, apart from Lazenby being a total prat.

pay the plainticket and I'm there

Another silly henchman was Nick Nack.
Funny little midget but hardly a huge threat to 007
yerssot
but was he ever intended to be a huge threat? it is afterall about Bond and Scaramanga
Doc Ock
Then whats the point of a henchman if they are not supposed to be a threat???
yerssot
I see him more as a comic relief than a henchman
Reborn Again
Silly as in hilarious: Nick Nack. Silly as in rediculous: Bambi and Thumper. (Though technicially they weren't actually henchmen, but assassins/guardmen). Silly as in just down-right weird and wacko: Mr. Kid & Mr. Witt.
Doc Ock
Mr Kill.
He definitely has the silliest and corniest name.
I mean is that the best they could think of??
Reborn Again
Mr. Kill was for comic relief IMO.
"I'm Mr. Kill."
"Well there's a name to die for."
yerssot
but he still had put on a fight with bond in the movie

very nice line
yerssot
first time you saw DaD huh
Primitive Screwhead
Mr. Wynn and Mr. Kidd were just wayyyy too fruity to be your typical henchmen.
yerssot
that was the idea

Weellllll, that kinda qualifies as silly in my book...
yerssot
because they were gay?
Primitive Screwhead
Well, it sure seems out of place in the Bond universe, doesn't it? Even in today's more socially liberal era, could you really picture 007 meets Will and Grace?
yerssot
no, but they thought of making Bond gay
silver_tears
I love will and grace
yerssot
you're pretty fly for a white guy
silver_tears
will's hot
yerssot
Will Turner from Pirates?
yerssot
that's Bloom!
silver_tears
yes and?
he's still nice and sexy
yerssot
he has a squeeky voice, can't act and has an ego bigger than Oprah's ass before her diet
silver_tears
you are so mean
yerssot
It's what girls dig, y'know
silver_tears
Not I disgust
yerssot
you're one of the few that doesn't want to be treated like trash, insulted and mocked at by someone they then even dare to call "boyfriend"?
at least some girls haven't gone nuts yet
silver_tears
I'm special like that
I take a "there's the door, don't let it hit your ass on the way out..." mindset
yerssot
good. respect yourself and don't let someone insult you the entire time. I simply can't get those kids, what do they find fun about that?
... damn I'm old
silver_tears
I do, and neither do I, and they're my age
yerssot
*shakes head*
you're perhaps the only one of your age that still has decency...
*holds mic under your nose*
how does it feel like? are you going to Disneyland now?
silver_tears
Sure
yerssot
You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen! She'll be robbing Fort Knox next week.
silver_tears
I'll just ask Daddy droolio
yerssot
cause you don't have a drivers licence yet?
silver_tears
Course I do
yerssot
but you don't use it?
silver_tears
Nope, I walk, cycle, blade, or take the streetcar. I hate driving, and see no point in it.
Honestly I was watching TND and Stamper gave me the creaps, he looks so german or some other similar country, they honestly stereotype like nobody's business.
yerssot
errrr.... he's supposed to be german or from a german speaking country. Carver refers to him at least once as "Herr Stamper". (and of course you have Doctor Herr Kaufman)
silver_tears
Yea, hence the he really looks German or similar, you know the stereotypical blonde, blue eyed look of the Scandinavian peoples
yerssot
now I fail to see your point....
silver_tears
My point was they did a good job casting stamper
yerssot
ah... I see the point again. Yeah, he was a decent henchman and a decent actor... nailed the sadistic part, many people have ultimatly failed to portray such a good henchman
silver_tears
He in comparison to Carver was comical
yerssot
I thought the comical part went to Carver ... "ho hi ho! (does some silly things that should resemble fightingmoves) You're pathetic."
That cracks me up
silver_tears
He was just so old
gah
yerssot
exactly, that's why the moves were so silly, he can't stretch
silver_tears
and paris was so gorgeous
yerssot
The city or the lois lane?
silver_tears
lois lane
or teri hatcher as she's known
yerssot
or a desperate housewife...
ah well... for some reason it just didn't hit me, saw too much Lois Lane in her... and her swing to Bond was too soon
silver_tears
I thought she was gorgeous, her and Pierce had awesome chemistry from what I saw.
yerssot
at least they, for once, had a story going on instead of him picking up an extra that dangles behind him
silver_tears
I liked how she slapped him, not some clingy bimbo
yerssot
and ten minutes later she enters his room, drops her clothes and says "oh james"
silver_tears
well he is James Bond
yerssot
cause of him falling in love or just being so tall?
Originally posted by silver_tears

wild animal like charisma?
silver_tears
huh?
yerssot
what lures people into liking him?

Falling in love.
yerssot
that was indeed way too silly for someone who's supposed to be a grade A assassin
... and with a troll like her
silver_tears

that and his looks don't hurt
yerssot
and cause he is rich?
silver_tears
minor detail
silver_tears
his looks! hello
yerssot
hi, well aren't we all shallow... *votes Adriana Lima for silent bondgirl and Gisele Bundchen for talking bondgirl*
