well, i tell you, strange to hear apartments being discussed in a stoneage story. pebbles serving with rollerscates on reminded of kelly bundy's gig in "married with children". notice about 18 minutes in, from the angle it looks like wilma doesn't have a face, it's clear they use the same voice actors for different persons and animals, talking about the swedish version here, also notice fred looks exactly the same in the flashback of his and wilma's wedding, the wedding in rock vegas was the coolest wedding i've seen though wilma was crying, also fred putting on a moustache and his own family doesn't recognise him was funny. many of the use of the dinosours in the play ground seemed completely useless and could be replaced with a rock or a tree. even though the story is about pebbles and bamm bamm it isn't one of those terrible junior stories and it includes plenty of fred and barney.

hehe. this has like the dullest of everything, the bond palest bond girls, and the main girl (holly goodhead) is so angry and off putting, bond even refers to her as chilly at one scene, not as chilly as the girls in the amazonas though, the villain is pale, and he has the most annoying hench man who gets a jolly speeding up the centrifuge, goodness it felt good when bond threw him crashing out the window. this is the last appearance of the original m actor, and what a funny exchange with q "balls, q?", and bond's line "i fell out of an airplane" and moneypenny just laughs was funny, speaking of that airplane bit, the stuntman looked nothing like jaws, by the way, bit odd how jaws is in the opening sequence then doesn't appear until almost an hour in. the soundtrack to this is the only one not including the famous bond theme, on every album up to 1985 anyway, i don't care about the bond franchise after the moore connery era, already the 1980s bonds seem to lose some flair, someone commented they looked like tv movies, they certainly became more violent, they should never have let john glen direct. this is the only bond i've seen advertisement in, i heard it happens in the modern ones. the boat scene in venice was odd and fun, and when bond is flirting with the male nurse. this is the second time in the franchise someone has ended up between a females teeth in a billboard, the other being "from russia with love", they picked someone with great choppers too, not as great as cnn's rosemary church, but certainly much lovelier than jaws. i had just seen dr. no before this, you can imagine what a switch it was to this 007 in space. pardon my english, it's not my first language.

oh... i thought it looked funny as she put the thing on her chatty costumer at the barbershop, and hackman's hat dripping a great amount of water. the leader sounded so funny when he said "are you stupid?" (his voice has been in a couple of twilight zone radio dramas), i also found the mayor and sheriff was so funny. the difference of the two leading men going about it differently in styles makes it a great contrast, how this purdy guy acting a hero by sitting besides at the table causing the kid to really get in trouble, then hackman finally goes "from now on we'll do things my way". look at that big guy that sure runs fast for a large fellow. as mentioned before on this board the interviews looked so real.

remake it? heck no. i can't stand remakes, love sequels though. there is an actor in this that later played a bad guy in the eddie murphy beverly hills cop, and i think this was the only time i've seen him play a good day, baddies ever since, for i while i even expected him to be a phony in on it, but what you thought would happen did, just like you knew before hand what would happen to the prison guards in the beginning of the movie, goodness those punks got to me (as well some of reggie's mockery attitude), couldn't wait to see what's coming to the punky bad guys. what a great soundtrack, i had to get it on cd, and what a cool looking bridge. not being in an english speaking country i got this with subtitles, there are distant voices i figure you wouldn't get without subtitles. murphy doesn't appear until far into the movie.

the main bond girl's personality in this is so off putting, constant being a bitch and even leaves bond deserted in the desert to die at the hands of jaws and she looks pissed most of the time, i wish bond had ended up with some other female in the movie. i find the final part of the movie runs pretty slow, like in that way "thunderball" had overlong underwater scenes. bond looks so funny in the desert tent and the scene has great humour. here we go again, a female shot in the back while in the arms of bond. this is the only time i've seen bond body slam someone, by the way, check out hulk hogan bodyslam andre the giant, andre was considered as jaws in this i've heard. notice how bond like the spy in the beginning looks, like a match between roger moore and george lazenby, the opening reminds of the opening to "a view to a kill" (1985), i think i've read this was moore's favorite of his bond movies and the least his final "a view to a kill". sandor's part sure wasn't big compared to jaws, unusual how m doesn't appear until far into the movie if i got that right, the actor playing general gogol is so good, just the face expressions and the way he delivers the news of the death of the spy who loved her.

hear, hear. well i hadn't seen this since i was a kid and forgot what daring scenes it has, it implied suitable for all ages and sort of comedy like, not like the 1930s one starring boris karloff. the titles are rolling five minutes into the movie. strange watching the hanging part then become jolly company and acting different with environment, i don't think i ever saw the sequels as kid. check out the weird done grow led into the camera. this has strayed pretty far from the 1930s movie story, messy, special effects, and doesn't have the mystique, and unlike other mummy versions i've seen this includes humour, we can't have that ๐ . i wonder why the little guy didn't run before the mummy made him his slave. you never see any grotesque scenes, this was obviously suited for a wide range of age groups, never checked out the sequels, as this aired again i had planned to watch it but found it so grotesque it put me off. my favorite version remains karloff's from the 1930s. so what's the title of these mummy movies in england?

and the only one without sharks, right? ๐ wow, the lip ๐ syncing sure don't match at some places, and what's up with the echo when the professor is speaking... any more bright ideas professor? ๐ง at least on the version i saw, spoiler, odd how bond gave him one more gunshot in the ass, what a beautiful shot of london at the beginning, this doesn't have an opening sequence as the following bond flicks, differs from the rest like "never say never again", it has the trademark gun barrel opening though, which is actually lacking or remade in some of the recent bonds i think, i haven't seen them, got to be connery or moore. that is one short tie bond is wearing, notice also they're not wearing seat bealts. i remember bbc pointing out how sylvia trench set off bond with his trademark bond, james bond as she first introduces herself as trench, sylvia trench, (by the way bbc, stop zooming out laura trevelyan you geniuses) both sylvia trench and jack lord were suppose to be re occurring actors but lord wanted too much money and sylvia trench only returned for one more flick, the role of felix returned of course but with other actors, i don't know what happened after "license to kill" though as i don't watch the movies made after 1985, here bond had only heard of leiter. takes a long time before the main bond girl in this shows up. i don't recall ever anywhere else with saying who are you "ringing" rather than "calling". i'm surprised bond's hat didn't fly off when in the speeding one.

sounded like some reaction from stewie griffin. well the reason i watched this years ago was because of the fight between lee and norris, some later bruce lee movie has norris pasted from this and include him in the credits. i expected a much more active and full board to this movie, i thought it was lee's most well known flick with exception from his final (enter the dragon). what a different cool unexpected opening credits, the end credits were weird too. that waitress ๐ฉโ๐ณ went all in on the italian gestures, didn't she, by the way, i've never seen so many bowls ๐ฅฃ ๐ฅฃ ๐ฅฃ ๐ฅฃ ๐ฅฃ at the table eating out of it, also check out that 1960s fashion like room. this movie looked like a comedy at first, and a good fifteen minutes in before any english at all, the dubbing was really out there, like a spoof almost, even norris was dubbed, the uncle gave a really long speech at one point, and wow the nudity of the western girl came unexpected, one of the bad guys at first looked like ben dover from "fletch". what a weird toilet scene. there sure was a lot of the boxes ๐ฆ falling and crashing. i don't know about your version but my picture froze once. did the cat ๐ฑ get any credit ๐.

"hey pesci, here's a nickel, say yugoslavia.", they should've cut the hair a bit on robert shaw's stuntman, or should i say fall guy. pedro armendariz makes his final movie here, i've also seen him in "captain sindbad" from the same year, and the great western "3 godfathers" (1948). bond sure slaps women around a lot in the movies. this is the only bond flick where the theme (title) song doesn't appear in the opening credits, well i suppose you could say the same about "on her majesty's secret service". as brought up earlier on this board, i have to really agree that every scene with rosa klebb is unintentionally hilarious ๐, sometimes i get her confused with ilse steppat from "on her majesty's secret service".

what a name, i reacted to that too, and the way bond just rattles off scaramanga's life story off hand when questioned by m, watching this it's easy to see why mike myers spoofed them in austin powers. marc lawrence (the gangster in the opening sequence) have like one speaking line, he, maud adams and j.w pepper in this appears in more than one bond flick, lawrence were also in diamonds are forever, maud adams in octopussy of course, and an extra in a view to a kill, j.w. in live and let die. another actor i recognise, being a guest at "fawlty towers", here appearing with q and in m's office, by the way, what a far out setting of m's office in the ship later on. goodnight is a funny bond girl. the pretending to be the wax figure was such a cool ending to the duel at dawn. the line "it's a four letter word and you're full of it" sounds so unexpected coming from bond. "a water pistol?". "goodnight, sir."

you've got such a good eye on this movie it's always so interesting to read and that's an interesting anecdote your history how you came to discover this movie and how they didn't allow you to watch it, yes it was nice to be taken care of, i never looked at it like that before, that's by the way partly why i like these boards, you don't get strictly reviews, and there are so many stories about psycho of how people wouldn't dare to shower for a long while, i'm sure you've heard about it. i read your post months ago but didn't rewatch the movie until now, and i noticed for the first time now how janet leigh comes last in the opening credits. the first scary bit in this is the appearance of the cop ๐ถ stopping leigh on the road, but really gets tense when norman appears, how insecure and troubled he seems, like his reaction when she asks "do you go out with friends". though if you saw this movie for the first time i guess you'd expect it's his "ill" mother who murders people, i wonder if it was norman getting rid of his mother's new man as well, "and the way he died", as we later learns, and the shouts from the house, that's just norman switching back and forth in personality. notice norman smiles at the strangest moments, when the car disappears in the swamp and after martin balsam leaves. this may sound stupid but when janet leigh is driving the car and discussions are heard and appear, i never know if it's for real or her dreaming it up. as i brought up earlier there are a lot of actors from the 1950s twilight zone series, but except for martin balsam i haven't seen them in anything else than this of what i can recall, by the way, norman's favorite twilight zone episode would probably be "young man's fancy", also available as radio drama ๐ป , sorry if i repeated something, we've made quite a thread here.

a light part of the movie, being a mr. bean fan, i liked it. the cat did some good acting. though made by a famous person, the soundtrack really do feels so off as brought up earlier, like some jazz music for an action adventure movie. i thought kim basinger was too young and looked much hotter later in her career, the villain was mostly annoying than anything else. the nod gently part reminded of goldfinger.

hear, hear. exactly, the episode "a short drink from a certain fountain", also available on "the twilight zone radio dramas" starring adam west, one of the funniest twilight zone radio episodes, and as you mentioned, quicker, packed into 25 minutes, this movie runs for about three and a half hours with commercial, goodness... the running time of modern movies is ridiculous, some old movie maker joked that modern movies end credits run longer than movies used to. i was just thinking, how much have people ripped off from twilight zone?, there are so many major mainstream movies i've come across when i thought "hmm... that's just like that twilight zone episode", well except they have added humping and bad language. here's to the future.

and don't ever complain about sophia loren's acting. however, about this movie... oh my goodness, there is no getting away from... every scene is just so dragged out it's unwatchable, and how about the bare chested guys, how about putting sophia loren in a bikini instead, she looked hotter later in her career though, by the way, what a friggin breakout of orchestra at the death scene, but man is she a great actress or what, i remember when i was a kid i was just blown away by both her hotness and acting skills. anyway, i managed one hour and i just couldn't waste any more time on this... runs for three hours... the cast is amazing, it also has some amazing stunts with horses ๐ ๐, beautiful paintings ๐จ as the movie starts, one guys beard looked a little off though... well... there were movies made like this in the 1960s, three, four hours long movies... this might be the most boring one. yikes. i could use a distraction.

it's so groovy, i love it, you have yet to watch "thunderball" and "never say never again" i guess, check out he dvd on this for deleted scenes, weird how they cut out sammy davis jr. notice it looks like tiffany puts out the cigarette in bond's hairy chest. the guy in the mud pie scene did a fairly good job keeping still as bond hoses him down. peter franks surely didn't have much dialogue. how about the sideburns on some of the people in this. marc lawrence appears in two bond movies in the 1970s, i wonder sometimes if there's a connection and the same role, he's dressed the same in both movies. blofeld: - "what a pity. such nice cheeks too. if only they were brains.", the two jolly guys are so funny, "very attractive... for a lady." and the face expression of his... well... buddy, and the end scene, spoiler, when bond throws him overboard as he explodes is the funniest part of the movie "wooo! wow!" ๐ฎ ๐ ๐ ๐ฅ

really, that's great, one of the originals, it isn't him singing on the movie's soundtrack though, just like it wasn't johnny cash in the 2003 movie about his life, besides johnny b. goode, one of my favorite chuck berry tunes is "no particular place to go", used in a cool scene with al bundy in "married with children". all the clocks ticking and being involved with this scientist, and suddenly the kid realises he's twenty minutes late for school is hilarious, followed by the groovy skateboard and hitching on the back of the trucks, the fella i was watching this with thought it was daring to then hitch behind the police car. the famous soda sure goes all in on the branding, no hint there... hehe. notice how fast the daylight comes in one of the scenes. one of my favorite memorable lines from this is when the scientists rips some paper and yells "i refuse to take responsibility". best tune is johnny b. goode of course, and i love the "family guy" spoof of that. this movie itself really reminds of bits of "the twilight zone" (1959), like what happens to biff made me think of the episode "of late i think of cliffordville".

alright, a new asterix movie that still looks like a real cartoon ๐จ (i call it new since most asterix movies are from the last century), because i checked out a bit of the 2014 and it looked nothing like the old movies and i just couldn't watch it, like some weird computer stuff, nobody seem to like that technique yet they keep making movies like that, i guess this might be the last real cartoon like asterix flick then, weird though how it seemed to revolve more around the young lovers though rather than asterix and obelix, kind of like how sit coms sometimes starts to revolve more around the kids as the series goes on, like "married with children" for example, and neat this contains the "eye of the tiger" (from rocky), speaking of swedish voices here, obelix sounds quite similar to the one from the old movies while asterix sounds completely different even though i think the actor who voiced the classic movies is still around. i remember i couldn't get hooked on the 1994 asterix movie, and i could never get hooked on the none cartoon made in the 21st century, my favorite might be "the twelve tasks of asterix", that was so groovy. spoiler, during a suspenseful scene i thought no one would get harmed since it's a cartoon, but then suddenly the guy crashes down the cliff.

q never had a cooler shirt, the villain looks like jay leno with an eyepatch, did i just hear bond pronounce the word women like it's spelled, no right? that seems like a new thing, like people starting a centence with "so". the end credits look weird and suddenly goes dark without the usual "james bond will return". openings on bond movies are often a bit weird, here it appears bond is hitting a woman, imagine watching that for the first time. i actually fast forward the overlong underwater scenes.
