2023-04-12 06:33:58 +0000 UTCI guess it's only ok when Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves fight on trains (MI:1, John WIck 2) =D

2023-04-09 22:47:44 +0000 UTCI did not know that. Pretty cool.
Bill W
2023-04-09 22:22:42 +0000 UTCI picked it because I like it. I like the bad guys, I like the locales, I like the stunts. And that it's a real-world crime, for a change. Not 'world domination'. It's kind of a unique Bond film. And to the patrons who've been complaining about it... no one forced you to watch it, and there's plenty more opportunities to come. This is supposed to be all for fun anyways, The voting is over and the video has been uploaded, so 'pushing back' at this point just seems like whining.

2023-04-09 22:20:01 +0000 UTCIn Haitian Voodoo, 'Baron Samedi' is considered the spirit of the dead/resurrection and known for disruption and debauchery. Usually depicted as a man with a top hat and coat, or sometimes as a skeleton, or hybrid of both. In the film, the character is portrayed by Geoffrey Holder who was an actor, singer and dancer/choreographer. He did the choreography for all the tribal scenes on the island. He won 2 Tony Awards for best director and best costume design, and was a famous spokesperson for 7UP in the 70s and 80s.

Dazman
2023-04-08 22:42:42 +0000 UTCIs it not clear from the polls, videos and comments that they are watching two from each actor? And there is no reason to skip the Dalton ones.
Dazman
2023-04-08 22:40:59 +0000 UTCI think Dalton is the better actor - he's got great presence. And I could see in many ways he's the better Bond. But I think for the role Roger Moore is excellent and fun. I never really liked Pierce Brosnan in the role but Tomorrow Never Dies does have Michelle Yeoh in it which counts for a lot.

2023-04-08 18:47:40 +0000 UTCOctopussy was the first Bond Movie I saw at the theatres. Before it was on ABC Sunday night at the Movies! A good movie, but I think we both agree For your Eyes Only is his best
Bill Maurer
2023-04-08 14:26:33 +0000 UTCMe Too. These Docs add a Great Deal more to the Bond Experience. They show just how Connected All the Films really are, too.
Larry Darrell
2023-04-08 13:15:00 +0000 UTCare you planning on watching ALL the Bond movies? You may want to just skip ahead to the Daniel Craig ones.

Jayson Phillips
2023-04-08 04:04:13 +0000 UTCGranted, Bond can be taken as a cartoon for adults. But it's also self-aware enough to satirize its own ideas of masculinity, so not silly imo.
ArsTropica
2023-04-08 03:47:35 +0000 UTCThe best version of A Christmas Carol is The Muppets version.
Captain Caveman
2023-04-08 03:04:39 +0000 UTCI remember these documentaries. When I got the whole series on DVD I went through and watched every single one of these in a row learning things about the series even I didn't know.

2023-04-08 02:39:34 +0000 UTCAnd eventually she'll get to SKYFALL where he fights on top of the train.
Stick Figure Studios
2023-04-08 02:37:26 +0000 UTCSome even think he should have retired after FOR YOUR EYES ONLY, but I'm glad he did OCTOPUSSY because that was my first Bond film.
Stick Figure Studios
2023-04-08 02:36:36 +0000 UTCBond is too silly, but THE LADYKILLERS is fine?
Stick Figure Studios
2023-04-08 02:35:40 +0000 UTCI know this is anathema, but I can't take any of the Bond movies. Just too silly. On the English cinema front, I recommend the following (unless you've already seen them): - A Christmas Carol (released as "Scrooge" in US) with Alastair Sim as Scrooge (1951); widely regarded as the best version and would be a great Christmas season pick - The Man in the White Suit (Alec Guinness [of "obi wan kenobi" fame) - The Ladykillers (Alec Guinness and a young Peter Sellers, 1955?)
Tom Holman
2023-04-07 23:42:37 +0000 UTCI didn't vote for this because of the theme song (even though it's my favorite theme song), I knew it wouldn't get heard due to YT rules.
Richard Maurer
2023-04-07 22:49:17 +0000 UTCMoore hit his stride with The Spy Who Loved Me. Though For your Eyes Only was his best. He should have retired after Octopussy, another good Moore Bond movie.
Bill Maurer
2023-04-07 19:38:53 +0000 UTCCoincidentally watching the ones with fights on trains!
Dazman
2023-04-07 19:33:25 +0000 UTCWait until she sees SPY WHO LOVED ME.
Stick Figure Studios
2023-04-07 17:43:29 +0000 UTCSadly, all of Roger Moores 007 movies are similar to this one. The ridiculous sheriff even makes another appearance in the next Bond movie. I watched the YouTube edit of this because I couldn't bear watching the whole movie again. Yes...just watch two and move on from Moore
Doug Cook
2023-04-07 15:54:48 +0000 UTCDid anyone know, Roger Moore played James Bond BEFORE Live and Let Die. In 1964, on a TV series called, Mainly Millicent. https://youtu.be/ro7vdOMmMSs
Larry Darrell
2023-04-07 14:45:49 +0000 UTCI like Dalton too, Licence to Kill (1989) is in my top 3 favourite James Bond films

2023-04-07 11:19:53 +0000 UTCThose who push for a clear song are destined to live with videos hit by YouTube copyright strikes.

2023-04-07 07:56:42 +0000 UTCTimothy Dalton is the best Bond.
Dooly
2023-04-07 05:59:01 +0000 UTCJust gotta learn to live with disappointment. 😐
Dooly
2023-04-07 05:57:05 +0000 UTCAnd The Saint, basically, was James Bond for TV. Moore was a natural for the part.
Captain Caveman
2023-04-07 05:54:37 +0000 UTCI knew that was going to happen because they’ve done that every time so far. 🤦
Tim Raths
2023-04-07 04:49:55 +0000 UTC“What is it with fighting on trains”….lol
David Toovey
2023-04-07 04:24:41 +0000 UTC“Hey… let’s pick ‘Live and Let Die’ because of its great theme song.” Cassie and Carly completely talk over said theme song to discuss snacks and chocolate. Well played, Patrons who picked this one!
Cliff Stephenson
2023-04-07 03:51:39 +0000 UTC( Cassie ) "Is that supposed to be James bond" ? ( Carly ) " I don't want it to be " / then literally minute later this guy gets murdered and drug off screen . I honestly got caught in a laughing fit because how in time the girls commentary was with the murder of the first guy
Wyatt Nuxoll
2023-04-07 03:17:22 +0000 UTCGreat watching Cassie and Carly on Youtube, you two kids are so much fun!!!! (Even if the movie...ain't the best of Bonds....or most films, lol.) I do think that Yaphet Kotto doesn't get enough credit for his ability.
Ian Hunter (NewbieInOttawa)
2023-04-07 02:53:06 +0000 UTCInside Live and Let Die https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcutG17prBc I've added one of these for all the previous James Bond Reactions. They are Making of Documentaries that were made for each of the Bond Film DVDs/Blurays up to Licence to Kill. All Narrated by Patrick MacNee. I look forward to watching these everytime I watch a Bond film. Didn't know they were on YouTube. They Stay within each specific film, and don't show things from future films, for the most part I think. They do mention previous films. The whole documentary series, goes in order of the series. They are Great Companion Pieces. Watching this again, now. These could be Great Reactions.
Larry Darrell
2023-04-07 01:57:26 +0000 UTCBarely 10 years old when we got to see this in the theaters! I see that name and the song plays in my head! But now I don't remember much of it except the theme song!
Randolph Tirazona
2023-04-07 01:39:26 +0000 UTCRegarding “hasn’t aged well”: that is absolutely true of some of these films. What I think the younger generations are going to find surprising is just how poorly some of their favorite films age in the coming decades. Current cinema doesn’t have any magic formula regarding modernity. Much of it will look downright silly in thirty years.
Just Plain Bob
2023-04-07 01:36:16 +0000 UTCHarold Sakata (Oddjob), who was not an actor, and was not used to pulling punches, actually hit Sean Connery on the back of the neck, in the beginning of Goldfinger. Connery said years later in an interview, "He gave me that Chop behind the neck, at the fridge, it put me on the floor. He wasn't quite used to the cinema technique of taking it to the wire and then stopping, you know. And, uhh... somedays I think I still have it from then."
Larry Darrell
2023-04-07 01:34:06 +0000 UTCI think some of the old ones are weak and some of the new ones are weak. I also I think some of the old ones are great and some of the new ones are great. I am of the opinion that the age of a film (or song or book or any work of art) doesn't determine its quality.

Bill W
2023-04-07 01:05:59 +0000 UTCI just can't get Austin Powers out of my head watching Moore's Bond. Most of his movies were a bit too silly for me, though I did like The Spy Who Loved Me.
Drew
2023-04-07 01:03:17 +0000 UTCInteresting, because I think the modern Bond films are crap and the old ones (Moore and Connery) are the only ones worth watching. To each his or her own, I suppose.
Art of Free Speech
2023-04-07 00:47:59 +0000 UTCI think I read somewhere that Roger Moore was in line to be the original Bond, but he was under contract for the TV series The Saint, so Sean Connery got the role. And then Pierce Brosnan was being eyed to take over from Moore, but Brosnan was under contract for Remington Steele, so Timothy Dalton got the role and then Brosnan became Bond after him. And yeh, these 1970s Bond movies haven’t aged well, the ‘oh let’s cash in on the popularity of a genre’ movies.
Ria Grix
2023-04-07 00:21:59 +0000 UTCBTW ladies, yes, a hard strike to the neck can most certainly knock someone out. Or worse.
Dazman
2023-04-06 23:25:37 +0000 UTCRoger Moore is also my favourite James Bond. Charming, charismatic, funny and a great screen presence. Many will say Sean Connery is the best, and yes I suppose he is, but I think the only actor that could have taken over from Connery and kept the James Bond series so hugely popular worldwide, that was Roger Moore.
JONATHAN REDFERN WILLIAMS
2023-04-06 22:37:41 +0000 UTCRoger Moore once described his own acting style as 'Right eyebrow. Left eyebrow'. Great guy all round who never took himself too seriously. He's actually my favourite Bond. I loved this movie as a little kid. Mainly because of the gadgets, the voodoo and Moore himself.
Hondo the Cat
2023-04-06 22:18:07 +0000 UTCFUN FACT: Yaphet Kotto, who plays the main villain, Kananga in this film, went on to play Parker in Ridley Scott's Alien (1979). Also his villain name Kananga is named after the stuntman, Ross Kananga, who did that amazing crocodile jumping stunt. This 3 minute DVD documentary YouTube clip gives a little backstory to that stunt and how the stuntman had to do stunt FIVE times, and they show those five takes, very scary. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bM_AN_gTMnA

Tim Raths
2023-04-06 21:57:44 +0000 UTCI know some of these movies didn't age well but I'm glad you are watching the evolution of them because I think that will make you appreciate Daniel Craig even more.
KauaiKeith
2023-04-06 21:38:13 +0000 UTCThis is the only Bond theme song I've seen live and it was quite the experience.
Mike Gallagher
2023-04-06 21:25:37 +0000 UTCIn full agreement with both of you regarding this one. It's Silly, Bloody Silly. Carly has the 2 best comments: "Well, he actually looks nervous here instead of..." or something like that, and "I think I like GEORGE! (not John) Lazenby better" because he is better. Yay, Carly!
Robert Jewell
2023-04-06 21:13:25 +0000 UTCNot the worst Moore film (that would be his next one), but an awkward, clumsy, sloppy and somewhat schizophrenic entry in the franchise. Moore is in fine form as always, but this was not a good debut for him (or a good introduction to his interpretation of Bond for someone never seen him). Still, not without it's good points like that rockin' McCartney title song. Also, Cassie, it's suspend Disbelief, not suspend belief.
Stick Figure Studios
2023-04-06 21:07:18 +0000 UTCDearest Cassie, in my World History class my students are discussing Imperialism. I gave them the optional extra-credit assignment to watch your reaction to ‘RRR’ and write about Imperialism. I SAID I only had them watch your reaction to avoid having to watch all 3 1/2 hours….. So, congratulations, you’re now in the curriculum of a Texas High School World History class. We’ll done!
Lamar Smith
2023-04-06 19:46:48 +0000 UTCSee, that's why I love LaLD... I love the humor. I love the dad jokes. I love that Bond didn't take himself too seriously... and the Louisiana Sheriff was so loved in this movie, he actually makes ANOTHER appearance in a Bond film as the same character. It feels like all the things you guys were iffy about were the reasons I loved the film.
Art of Free Speech
2023-04-06 19:29:58 +0000 UTCThis is a decent enough entry in the overall Bond franchise if you watch it in context, but it's not a good 'first film' to watch for Roger, even though it IS his first Bond film. He's solidified as Bond in THE SPY WHO LOVED ME, which I already know you watched and enjoyed more than this one.
Matt Rose
2023-04-06 18:53:03 +0000 UTCYeah, the early Moore films are his best. They hadn't leaned into the more slapstick element of his portrayal yet. *cries in pigeon double-take*
Brian Pelts
2023-04-06 18:33:08 +0000 UTCRoger Moore was known from the TV series "The Saint" and there seemed to be a least a little borrowing from that character to his take on Bond. Different than SC, Moore went into humor much more so and probably too much so in his final Bond movies.
