God the scene where he hands her the shoes is just a brilliant joke. Her face makes it even better. no matter how often i watch it it still cracks me up.
The "yogurt and lemon juice" comment was regarding the rehab facility's menu, and Miss M was implying that Bond wouldn't have the strength to carry out his threat. Apologies to anyone who already posted this.
My goodness! Thank you for explaining this because I've been laughing at this for weeks. I will continue using it sarcastically with my husband for shts n giggles.
Ever notice how Bond has the best job ever? His 'spy' work ALWAYS entails going to expensive restaurants driving a nice car and wearing a suit. He beds his contact, shoots at some bad guys, and the main villain puts him in an easily escapable death trap which is easily escapable. Aside from paternity lawsuits (which are rare since his partners tend to die) what's the downside?
"On yogurt and lemon juice" is probably in reference to the fact that Bond was at a health spa and not being fed any type of food that would give him strength enough to spank her. She's basically saying "With the food they are feeding you, I doubt you'll have the strength to spank me."
2:22 It's not as big a coincidence as you'd think, because the "health club" seems to be a well-equipped surgical and rehab center near the air base. Bond is a Royal Navy officer, and S.P.E.C.T.R.E. arranged for Derval, a French flyer who trains RAF bomber crew, to be at the clinic so they could do reconstructive surgery on his corpse while it was still warm. Still a coincidence that they were there at the same time, but there were probably only a few places in England where Derval's double could have taken his place so smoothly. 4:13 They knocked him out with the same gas they planned to use in the oxygen system of the bomber, which they presumably wanted to test before the mission. 5:41 The driver's seat is on the left because it's a Ford made in America. 7:13 Bond was there to save her because he knows she's his best lead and was following her all around Nassau. Skin-diving (giggity) was just the best time to catch her by herself. 7:33 I always just assumed Domino was the reason Largo's plan involved her brother. Since he needed a patsy anyway, the fact that his mistress had an older brother in the NATO strategic bomber forces was too good a stroke of luck to pass up. She speaks very highly of him when she first meets Bond, so she probably told Largo all sorts of details that he passed along to Volpe, the better to seduce him. Domino was part of Largo's plan from the very beginning, which is one reason she's so pissed off when she finds out. 8:22 He rewound it to the beginning of the tape, because it's a sound-activated microphone. 10:58 When Bond ordered conch chowder earlier in the film, Domino told him she'd read about its aphrodisiac qualities in a sex manual. She's flirting with him right under Largo's nose, which is all the confirmation he needs that he can probably charm her into helping him.
Testing experimental technology in the field is really stupid. Obviously they'd kidnap some hobo, test their knockout gas on him in some secure location, and then murder him afterwards.
Movie sin #75: Yes, that was indeed how you got your hotel keys back in the good old days, so no sin for that. They might randomly ask for your name but usually, they didn’t.
Sin 19: Moneypenny is implying that because they're feeding him nothing but yoghurt and lemon juice at the spa, Bond would be too weak to per her across his knee.
Its terribly obvious to me that is what Moneypenny was saying, but I see that our mutual observation is clearly beyond the mediocre mentality of Mr. "Everything Wrong with ...." and his crappy videos.
Yeah, it's a confusing line, but in the novel the line is "``I don't think you'll be able to do much spanking after living on nuts and lemon juice for two weeks, James.''
Yes, which Domino said in the movie. Something like "It isn't really an aphrodesiac," and Bond replies something like "I happen to like conch chowder."
About that last "Yea, no, they're dead.": That plane flying by with a hook to snag them thing is a real thing that real people have survived in real life: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fulton_surface-to-air_recovery_system
I love the sin off for the landmark establishing shot. I think it's so much more natural and interesting for filmmakers to use something other than captions telling you the city and country- that's the lazy option. I get it's sometimes needed, but as Thunderball shows, a quick glimpse of the Eiffel tower and no need for a 'PARIS, FRANCE' to show up.
omg I just watched Austin Powers and they spoof the chairs that kill you. Will Ferrell's character doesn't die but is very badly burned and asks for help through the service hatch. it's nice to know the source material of the joke
According to the book, "The Battle for Bond," the editor, Peter Hunt, originally cut the dog-relieving-himself shot out of the movie. But when the producers, Saltzman and Brocolli, saw it was missing they told him to put it back in.
Everything Wrong With Watchmen from Zack Snyder, I know that you don't really like his film and that some people think this movie suck but for me this is a very good movie.
Criminals guide for taking out bond 1.Dont do shit and wait for him to hit you. 2.Miss every shot. 3.DONT SHOT THE TIERS. 4.Dont dodge,because fuck dodging.
Getting picked up by that plane when they're out In that raft wouldn't kill them. It's actually something that the military have done back In the cold war. to pick up agents that gathered information from the russians and needed to be picked back up very fast.
Thunderball might be my second favorite Bond film, but I'll readily agree that they could easily chop 20 minutes of scuba footage out and lose nothing. We needed twenty more minutes of Fiona Volpe instead.
VisualGourmet And then later he said in the space scene that it was boring "And not One boob. Not one boob I tell you!" (5:12) Like he wanted to see boobs in the clip to make the scene more interesting. So does boobs add or remove a sin? He confuses me sometimes. It really shouldn't remove sins, definitely if it was at least PG-13.
The shark pool scene was actually real. They used plexiglass. However there was a gap. And Sean just happened to be where the gap was. The fear on his face was real. In “ everything or nothing “ they discuss how Sean got out of the pool faster than they had ever seen anyone do it before. And that the person responsible was probably fired.
Criminals in movies are so dumb! I honestly think Bond would have died long ago had he been facing criminals who knew how to throw weapons properly and how to shoot guns! lol
Sinning the harpoons was definitely sinful - conventional firearms don't work well underwater for two reasons - one is that getting a gun to fire at all with water in the workings is going to take some special gear; the other is that it only takes a few meters of water to slow a bullet below lethal speed (actually, it depends on the caliber of the bullet, but you're talking about a medium a thousand times as dense as air - it's like firing ping-pong balls in air) - a harpoon packs a comparable amount of energy into a much heavier projectile with much more momentum, which still does significant damage at much lower speeds. Okay, underwater dart guns were developed to replace the spear guns seen in the movie, but not until the 70s - and even then, they were classified. Next you'll be sinning Grease for no-one using a cell phone...
I agree, but a spear gun is useless out of water and wouldn't shoot the guy to the tree. It's always funny how they never managed to just shoot him when they get the change but think of elaborate ways to let him escape. Well done sins. Love your work. Cracks me up everytime. JD
The only exception to this, is diamonds are forever ( laser ) and die another day. Otherwise. It’s all props or small scale stuff. The lotus under water was a minute car with a seltzer tablet in the back.
The underwater battle scene has to be the coolest underwater scene in movie history. Hardly any angle cuts, just a bunch of grown men fighting to the death underwater.
Well, this little montage "Everything Wrong With Thunderball In 17 Minutes Or Less" is still my all time favorite James Bond movie. I remember when I was a kid, all the kids really liked "Goldfinger". I never saw it back then until in the late 70's at a theater in L.A., CA., and the second feature was "You Only Live Twice". Both enjoyable James Bond films, but still "Thunderball" is my favorite one.
1:47 Ken Adam was the bomb! And I mean that literally: He also designed the War Room in Dr. Strangelove. So believable, Ronald Reagan wanted to see it when he became President, and his aides had to tell him it never existed.
it isn't from The Phantom Pain, it's a quick (but risky) method of cargo transport that involves attaching a balloon with a loop on the top, and a plane with a specially designed winch near the rear cargo door.
Yes, but it takes years of training for a pilot to be able to Fulton standard-sized cargo, and since the size of that balloon could lift a small car, bond is ascending too fast to be safely Fulton-ed (again, someone tell autocorrect that if the word Fulton is in its database, it should recognize it with its suffixes)
I came back to the hall, & realized I didn't have my key. My husband was inside asleep, with ear plugs. He sleeps so soundly a bomb couldn't wake him. She let me into the wrong room, then the right room without question! No problem. Yes I mixed up the doors that were right next to each other.
Actually, the aircraft recovery of Bond and Domino is a Fulton system which was used very successfully for decades. The shock of the aircraft snagging the cable is about as much as a parachute opening.
Also made an appearance in Green Berets. In fact when my dad was in the AF, they were testing the system at Eglin. They would give out a 3-day pass for troops who volunteered to test stuff like that. My dad had this one Airman who volunteered for everything, got lots of time off. When he did the Skyhook test, it jammed and they flew around for like 3 hours flapping him in big circles behind the plane while they tried to unstick it. He's probably still dizzy. It cured him of volunteering though...
17: There's a pool filled with piranha in every SPECTRE meeting area. 28: What sociopath would kill a man instantaneously when he can take pleasure in him dying of pain? 105: If there's blood in the water, sharks pretty much don't notice anything but it. That's one of their most basic instincts. 116-117: He's waiting for a huge pound of the drum so that no one hears the shot. When the drum was hit hard enough, no one hear the shot! DUUURRRRRR!!!!! 135: There WERE more US soldiers than Largo's men in that battle!
Yeah! And back when CinemaSins was celebrating 1 year and let people vote on the next sins video, they said they weren't including episodes 1, 2 or 3 as an option - because they had something special in mind for them... *back then!*
Daniel Rosa waiting for the new one to come out. and anyway. every pretentious douche on youtube has taken shots at the prequels (even if half the shots are complete bullshit). time to take on the original trilogy. and I hope he uses the theatrical versions for maximum fanboy butthurt.
The Geiger counter thing was actually a part of the book they sloppily adapted into the movie. In the book, the Geiger counter was both the watch AND the camera; the camera was the actual Geiger counter, and the second hand on the watch was the counter's needle. Also the camera was one of those old timey Rolleiflex cameras and it couldn't actually take pictures, but the shutter button actually worked, so it would only look like it could take pictures. Incidentally, since Q wasn't in any of the books, the Geiger camera was actually Felix Leiter's and given to him by the CIA. None of the other gadgets were in the book.
8:50 the sound of that shotgun towel always cracks me up no matter how many times I view this movie when I viewed it as a kid and as I view it now I always crack up what towel sounds like that
As great as having all Bond movies sinned would be, I'd be extremely happy if we got to see the sin count for "Moonraker". The others aren't important. Please?
That last sin would not have killed them, it's called a Fulton Recovery System, a well documented extraction system. You can see them use it in The Dark Knight as well as the tv show The Unit
@@saintroddy Slightly before the escalation, but it was tested in conjunction with the war. Richard Marcinko, the former founder of DEVGRU, aka SEAL Team 6, took part in the testing of it and describes it in his memoir.
Sharpclawasaurus Carole Bouquet...Yum! My favorite is "The Spy Who Loved Me" for the opening ski stunt off the cliff, the submarine Lotus, and Barbara Bach.
pk13910 I like For Your Eyes Only because it has 2 very attractive ladies in it. The assassin chick and the... Well, the um... **ahem** excuse me... The girl who wants to sleep with everyone. Also, the scene with the little car out-running the bad guys is hilarious.
From Russia With Love is my favorite Sean Connery Bond movie. It has the best plot, and the woman Bond falls for seems more interesting than most Bond girls.
10:12: Fiona picking up Bond the way she does is not a sin. He had just disappeared underwater after being caught spying on Largo's boat. It would make sense for him to dispatch his people to look for him coming ashore. The reason why his hotel is as far as Fiona will drive him is because his cover was already blown a day or two earlier. The real sin is he continues to stay at the hotel where his cover is blown, which leads to Paula's kidnapping and death later: 11:03.
Take 200 sins off for making this awesome movie in the 60's. Also, Continuity Girl obviously wasn't being paid enough, so she got back at the studio by ignoring the Q gadget continuity error that everyone in the theater picked up on.
17:24 OMG that is the same actor! Phillip Stone who plays a SPECTRE operative here, later played the previous family killing axe murderer in Stanley Kubrick's The Shining. Bravo, CinemaSins!
One thing I regret not doing with my dad before he died was watching the old bond films and doing our brand of running commentary. Most of which would be me asking what the hell is going on?! Just like we did with Spectre. Because honestly...wtf was going on in that movie?! I was looking for the Lorax to speak for the (lack of) trees at the end.
This is why I don't care much for the newer Bond movies. They're too dark and series compared to the ones before them. Bond is supposed to be fun and corny.
Ok Casino Royale and Dalton were dark and gritty Bond Films compared to the others but they are the closest to the character Ian Fleming wrote. Bond is not suppose to be a stupid kids movie. If you read any of the books which you probably didn't you would know what I'm talking about.
Nolen Ferree I'm talking more about the tradition of the films. Most of them are light-hearted spy movies that rely more upon wit and charm than slapstick. These newer ones take themselves a bit too seriously for my liking.
M. Strain Jr. Maybe but they did go over the top with the corn during Roger More's era. I loved Skyfall and I think that Daniel Craig is the Dog's bollocks
+M. Strain Jr. I don't want a fun and corny spy movie, just like I don't like funnny karate movies. Certain movies don't need to add humor, another reason why I hate Jackie Chan movies.
Funny commentary, but these goofy movie ingredients are what makes Bond films so cool. And the underwater battle scene remains to this day the most exciting and best staged underwater battle scene ever filmed. Thunderball was classic Bond, had it all: gorgeous women, wit, completely fantastic scenery and imagery (which is totally absent after Octopussy), fun gadgets going awry and still having comic value, the stupid henchmen willing to work for bosses who they know will eventually kill them. This was when Bond films were great.
Thunderball: the first, original GRAND, FUN AND DUMB Bond movie. Still the template. That alone makes it a classic. Plus Connery. Plus Claudine Auger AND Luciana Paluzzi. Plus aquatic action in the caribbean. Gold.
