Love this beginnig when Bond is standing next to his wife grave and then Blofeld is showing upp and trie to kill Bond but Bond easily get out of Blofeld trap and get his revenge on that soab!!! Now the only thing thats missing is that bond is gonna get his revenge on Blund!!!
Tell you the truth, Bond could have jumped off the side off the helicopter when it was just above Blofeld. It was only a couple of meters and Blofeld would have cushioned him easy. But hey - that'd make things too simple :P
Best sendoff ever. True to character, Doctor Ernst Stavro Evil creates an overly elaborate and easily escapable trap, takes way too long to set it off, and finally pays the price for being such a bleeding moron.
I wish I had a remote controler that can control planes, helicopters, cars, trains, boats and anything that is controlled by a driver. :) THUMBS UP!!!
THE best opening sequence! It was so sad how he still goes to Tracy's grave after all these years, and the 'We have all the time in the world' caption makes me almost misty-eyed.
The first 5 minutes of this film were the best part.
@painlessissuicide i have to totally agree with you there. haha so was octopussy but at least it was an ian flemming james bond short story title. haha i love saying the name of octopussy to people when i tell them the title of all the roger moore ones:P
@bynarr123 Agreed, i don't get why Donald Pleasence is the most popular Blofeld. He's a great actor but he's short and bug-eyed. Blofeld should be tall, tough, mysterious and with a deep voice. Savalas fits that description.
The reason they never mentioned this guy as blofeld was because one of the producers who created him had a falling out with the studio and tried to sue them over the blofeld rights, so they killed him off like this to say to this guy " get stuffed, we don't need your blofeld"!
@bynarr123 But now that guy has passed away so Blofeld might possibly return in Skyfall and might possibly be played by Ralph Fiennes. To me they should've never killed off Blofeld. He was Bond's arch-nemesis and the only Bond villain to appear in 7 movies. The minute Blofeld left the franchise, the films lost all story continuity and just followed the same formula over and over again.
@painlessissuicide It's a reboot. They can bring back any character they want. Also, there have been hints about Blofeld's return such as one of the people of EON productions mentioning that "Bond should always fight Blofeld" and EON claiming that Bond's arch-nemesis will appear in Skyfall. Quantum will also not appear in Skyfall which gives Blofeld a shining oppurtunity to return to the franchise.
I don't actually think this PTS is as 'light or humorous' as peoe think, one he visits tracy's grave, he drops blofeld down a freaking giant pipe or whatever the hell that deep hollow thing is, don't know what it's called, but imagine how much that would hurt, in comparison to strangling?
If you're Bond's nemesis, then I think you deserve more of a dramatic death than simply being killed off in the opening credits. They really got lazy here.
Maybe he could have jumped, but it would have been a really dangerous landing at that speed. I think Blofield shows less common sense when he flies Bond around for 3 minutes, and instead of crashing with speed, desides to kill Bond by flying the copter very slowly without seeing it. Normal logic for a Bond villain :D And Bond could have jumped off easily after 3:17
I like this sequence except for Bond picking up Blofeld with the helicopter. For one thing, the bald cap on the stuntman is obvious and at other times, Blofeld is clearly just a dummy. And that line about the steel deli still baffles me.
@jksonny I think it's because Bond is an underpaid British Secret Intelligence Service agent, so Blofeld thinks that if he offers him lavish goods, Bond will spare him.
Lol....the laughable thing about James Bond villains is that, despite wanting Bond dead so much, they never seem to just kill him whenever they have the perfect opportunity! If Blofeld had simply flown the helicopter into the ground, Bond would be dead! Bish-bash-bosh.....job's a good'un!!
This scene is normally deleted when FYEO is shown on TV. I assume it's because they feel disabled people may well be offended. A bit far fetched in anycase.
As much as i love the stunts with the helicopter and how impressive it look this is what i hated about the roger moore era it was too loose and trying to be too funny. The made Blofeld go out like a chump. they should have gone for a more darker scene.
did u notice at 4:11 if u hav a look at the helicopter window as we can see it james bond roger moore flying the helicopter but at 4:11 theirs that person who picked james bond up the helicopter pilot. he come back alive again. !!!
Who says this was Blofeld? Just because he was bald and held a white cat? Anyway, I loved his accent, his laugh and some of his lines .... "I trust you had a ...... pleasant fright?!" "We can do a deal!!!" "Put me down .... put me down!!" Reminds me of Electric Light Orchestra's "Don't bring me down ......!!" And Roger ends up with the marvelous one-liner, " Oh! You want to get off?!?" And down the smokestack he goes!!!
@VrgniaMailman Of course it's meant to be Blofeld. That's why you see Bond at his wife's grave before this scene. Blofeld had his wife killed. So Bond finally gets revenge. And you never see Blofeld ever again in a Bond movie.
Does anyone know what he's talking about when he says "I'll buy you a delicatessen, in stainless steel"?? That has to be some kind of reference or in-joke, right? Or is it just nonsense?
It seems that a delicatessen was a popular mafia commodity back in the roaring 20's and 30's, and the most valuable delis were the ones with stainless steel countertops (easy to clean, thus less bacteria-laden than wooden chopping blocks). Consequently, a "delicatessen in stainless steel" was considered a worthy gift and thus a potent bribe. It is reported that the phrase is attributable to Albert R. Broccoli.
@rukk77 I do not know how to do it either. It is a problem with the codecs - that much I have found out! All of my VHS to digital uploads are the same!
