I don't think that's entirely fair. James Bond as a character is just, well, different, in OHMSS. Lazenby was at least more believable than Moore, if a lot less fun...

Anyway, back to the topic. Did you know that Major Amasova from TSWLM was originally going to cameo in Moonraker, so impressed were the producers by her performance...
Wonder why that never materialised...

LMFAO ROTF You seriously think that, Ahnold? You have a serious screw loose, bro. Lazenby was a terrible Bond. Bond is English, Lazenby is Australian. Whoever choose him had problems. This is why, despite the movie having a good plot with Blofeld as the main foe, is the one of the worse Bond films in history IMO. A total miscast with Lazenby.
Look... I don't think it's fair to say I have a "screw loose". I'm perfectly entitled to have an opinion that differs from yours. I happen to think Lazeny was a good bond. If you don't, fine. But c'mon - do you really believe Roger Moore and his eyebrow were more believable as the James Bond of the novels?
Oh, and I realise that Lazenby was australian. But Connery was scottish {which is how he played Bond, as in every single movie he's even been in. I laughed so much in "The Hunt For Red October: "To victory, comradeshhh..."}

Bond isn't as serious as you may think. He has a humorous side. Moore filled that void where Sean couldn't. I still say that Sean was the better Bond. He's #1, Moore #2, Bronsan #3, Dalton #4...etc.
The usual OHMSS bashing I see...thankfully I don't run with the herd. Eventually, when some loser with the ability to put together more than three words together in a sentance and writes for some *popular* 'zine read by spotty faced fanboys starts to ring it's praises, it'll be *Duh...oh yeah...I love that one too...*

To be honest, though, Moore was smart enough to realise how ridiculous some of his films were. I mean, gondolas that turn into hovercrafts? Pigeons doing double takes? Tarzan yells? It's just a bit much...
Anyway, back on topic. Did you know that one of Hector Gonzalas' entourage of women in for your eyes only was born Barry, a man?

Hmmm... I've unknowingly deviated from the purpose of this thread. To get back on track: Did you know that an original draft of TSWLM featured the villains offing SPECTRE and Blofeld at the start?
