Discos - perhaps cause it reminds me of a joke

When 007 enters Dr. No's dining room he stops to take a second look at a painting. The painting is Goya's picture of the Duke of Wellington, which was stolen in real life week or two before filming begun.

Unknown to cast and crew, Pedro Armendariz (Ali Karim Bey) was dying of cancer. When his conditions was revealed, he nonetheless finished his scenes and a party was thrown in his honor. Days later, in the hospital, he committed suicide.

There's a neat reference from M to Draco at the end of OHMSS regarding the real life Brinks Bullion job which happened a couple of years earlier...

Licence to Kill: The first Bond film to have a PG-13 rating, the last to show him smoking.

Did'nt Pierce smoke in his Bond films??? 😕

he refused a couple of times, but I should double check

In the first draft, Dr. No was a monkey

You have to be f***ing kidding me!!! 😂

Here's a bit of trivia I picked up somewhere...the hands that assemble the Golden Gun that kills Hi Fat aren't Christopher Lee's (of course!) but some trained guy that not alone has to put the gun together in a set amount of time but has to keep his hands steady and very camera friendly...

they were thinking of someone controling the monkey from afar I guess 😖

that's weird 😖 what was wrong with Chris doing it ? 😖

I think his nails were too long after playing Dracula for so long!!! 😱

well, the good thing is ... he didn't took a golden gun out to shoot Yoda in Attack of the Clones

That's STAR WIPE ASS (sorry...WARS) old boy...time to jump upon the Millenium Falcon and go OVER BEYOND... 😉

To more funfacts 😛

Screw the funfacts...why ain't you a mod??? *TR is more Punk himself*

oh come on TR, lets stay on topic, we're the only forum on KMC that keeps so close to the topic! 🙁

OK...my name ishh Bond...James Bond...shpeak up darling, I can't hear you!!! 😂

Funfact though I do have to check it up;... it seems Bond and Alec been close friends though in Thunderball, there is no one resambling Alec in the meeting

Those sheeps eyes that Bond popped into his mouth during that wonderful feast in OCTOPUSSY were really hard boiled eggs with a nice little colourful glazing on top...Yum!!!
