 Right in the eye! Welcome back everyone! This is Jeroen, better known as Dutch Bond fan, and I'm once again rejoined by my wonderful girlfriend, Liettet. Today we are watching 1965's Fundaball, our fourth James Bond movie in this movie reaction series, the fourth official Bond movie as well. You enjoyed Goldfinger a bit more last time? Yes, it's great. And what are you expecting from Fundaball? I think it's a rocket or something. A rocket? Why a rocket? Or with a ball? I don't know. That's just what the associations you get with the tile. Thunder, maybe? No clue. The cool thing is from here on in you haven't seen, well most of them from Fundaball all the way to the living daylights you haven't seen. So it's number 4 to number 15, all of which are going to be first time reactions. If you are interested in the full length reaction you can find it on Patreon so you can see the whole thing there and without further ado we're going to dive into Fundaball. This is the same one. No, this is the first time it's a new one. Now it's Connery. Are you still the James Bond in this one? Now it's really Connery because they changed the aspect ratio for this movie to a wider screen so they had to re-record the camera. Look, my initials on the coffin. No, you have also 3D. Who's this? The widow, but he notices something. Do you notice it? No. She's blown? The way she got into the car. Backwards. She went like this. Everyone once goes inside like with their head. No, you're on the wrong track, you'll see. I've come to offer my sincere condolences. My dear Colonel Beauvoir, I don't think you should have opened that car door by yourself. He just killed him. Yep, that was the real Jack Beauvoir. This is fake. Yeah, back projection. What's that? How awesome is that? That was a real jetpack. Yeah, but did he just like put it bare? Yeah, that's the thing I never got hot. Did he do that in advance? You notice the car? DB5, but very dirty. Yeah. Well done. It's under water. Yes. Who's singing this? I was going to ask you. Tom Jones. You know him? Sex bomb, sex bomb. Oh yeah. Or it's not unusual to be loved by anyone. Same guy. They're Paris. Yep. Wow, I love Paris. There will be no need. We have certain funds from private individuals who share ours. That's quite weird. They're Paris, but they're speaking English. Yeah, this is an international company, but there's a secret to this company. Sit down, number two. We will discuss your NATO project later. Who's this? Spectre number six. Oh, Spectre. Million three. Our expectations were considerably higher. But why do they have to pay or what? They bring money in from all kinds of criminal activities. He's going to kill him? But it's always the one you don't expect. In about half an hour, Pat. I'll be ready. I've heard that before. Now he says it's from Spectre, right? It's not a Spectre tattoo, but it is from something criminal. Spectre's logo is the octopus. Oh, yeah. Next time I see you, I'll put you across my knee. And yogurt and lemon juice? He's going to follow them. He's going into his room. Yeah, but obviously... There's someone coming! Get behind the curtain! Who's there? Who's there? It's not yet revealed. Well, I'd never have recognized myself. Do I seem healthy? Too healthy by far. He does his hair like hair. Behave yourself, Mr. Monk. This is salty! I don't see there's only one place to keep you quiet. First time I felt really safe all day. He's basically molested her and she's like, behave yourself. Like, nowadays he would be facing court, probably. Why would there even be a danger setting? Yeah. Yeah, where were you? Well, I... I suppose my silence could have a price. What do you mean? Oh, yeah. He just black nails her. Major Deval Social Secretary. My car's here at Judicals. The story of my life. You'll be late at the air base. This is the bad guy? You'll see. Your coat, sir? Nice dress. Oh, he's a pilot. It's the same guy. That's that guy who was with the... Right. He had plastic surgery to look like him. Yeah. Make it a quarter of a million. Or get someone else. There is no one else. Exactly. The rest of my money. Just have it ready. They don't do this. Atomic bombs? Why do they do that in an airplane? Why do they do that in a test flight? Yes. That's what I never got. So now comes the plan. What do you think they're going to do with the atomic bombs, Spectre? They will drop it. Drop it? Why? To kill. Think bigger? I don't know. They're all dead. Yeah. A test flight who is armed. You're right. That's the part I never got. The Spectre. Yeah, Mr. Largo. That was in Paris before, you know, with the eyepatch. They have like a runway in water. Yeah. They're going to kill him. Why would they kill him? Because he is not necessary anymore. You think Spectre is that ruthless? Yeah. You saw that with number nine. He has to turn it. Maybe it's stuck. He would know, right? He's certified pilot. You were right. He was to be expected probably. Of course they have a boat. What's who? Perfectly placed for a nuclear bomb. Perfectly placed for a nuclear bomb. Perfectly placed for a nuclear bomb. Here, handle like eggs. It says on the bomb. You saw that? Yes. I saw it. Would that say so on real bombs? No, I think not. Put this over the aircraft so nobody can see it. Right, to hide it more. This boat has an Italian name as well. The disco volante. Which means a flying saucer. Oh yeah, you see it. Flying saucer in an Alfa Romeo is also called disco volante. Who do you think killed him? The girl. She is the first true, true bad femme fatale in the series. Every double old man in Europe has been rushed in. And the home secretary too. That's why he's probably lost a dog. We can't see the other one's faces. Not really. But there is a 0011 as well mentioned. But we never see their faces now. Just a little bit. Oh, we saw that. Price. That's the circle the bombs could be located in. Good luck. It's the name of the mission. And immediately believes him. Yeah. He would find out. It's not funny. Yes it is. Have you ever been to the Bahamas? I want to go there. It's definitely a bond location. Starfish. You can't just pick up a starfish like that, right? They bite. They do? Paula, give me a hand will you? Get. Maybe you recognize Paula as well. She appeared in a previous movie. She was one of the two gypsy girls. Oh yes. And now she is in the Bahamas. She's playing someone else. Who's this? Is he from Spectre? Lightly. Oh, from Spectre. So what sharply lies you've got? Wait till you get to my teeth. He's just like a disgusting man. No, he's smooth. He's really smooth. He's like molesting girls. He has disgusting like... I love his life. In England. He's a commandant. With the NATO forces there. He's a wonderful person. He's dead, right? He killed him. No, that was the guy that passed over the door. Remember the red one? Who's that? The guy with the sunglasses. What do you think he is? Too much characters in this one. Yeah, good point. In Dr. No you immediately... See, I... Yes. Look at this pool. In a pool. Such a barn villain thing, right? They're going to throw him in the shock pool. In 1898. This is the old news. Yeah, so they did strike. So they did agree with the ransom money. So they have to find the bombs fast. Oh no. Ah, 007. What a wonderful surprise. They found his business by clipping you in the field on the run as it were. Highly irregular. Now he does, but that becomes regular. Mm-hmm. To equip him in the field. With special care. Everything you give him. Yes, I know, but that takes eight pictures in rapid succession by pressing that button now. Only eight? Is that clever? But if you can take pictures in the dark with an infrared film, yes. Obviously, you'll only use it. Breathing apparatus. And water. Lots of underwater in this movie, right? Mm-hmm. This was one of the first movies where they had underwater cameras. So they wanted to show that new technology. Ah, a lot. It's so weird because you are using hand grenades. Like 10 meters of your boat. Yeah, it could destroy your boat, you mean. Yes. We just put that thing off. Look at that. Let's get back into Largo. Classic Bond villain mistake, right? They just assume Bond is dead. My outboard capsize, so I have to show them. This is that girl from the... Spectre. Oh, from Spectre. They all look similar, right? This is the redhead Fiona Volpe. Ah. My hero. Yes. Eventually. See, I've always been a nervous passenger. Some men just don't like to be driven. No, some men just don't like to be taken for a ride. About 90 miles is a limit for six hours. Nets out and back. But they put, like, a... A net. A survival net on it. Yeah. The story again is pretty simple. Like, two bombs have been hijacked. The world is in ransom and Bond has to find the bombs. Well, not only bombs. And, you know, find the people responsible. Double O's. I have to find it also. Yeah, of course, but it's a Bond movie. So it's about his... his adventure. Looks more fitting for a woman. Do you know much about guns, Mr. Bond? No. I know a little about women. Mr. Vargas. That would be difficult. No, it isn't, is it? Where are they now? The hotel room of Mr. Bond. Is she? This is Colva and Fiona. And who's Fiona? The redhead. The evil girl. Bond has had to kill her yesterday evening. Now Pola is dead. I don't give a damn about the rest of the island. I just want the lights out and Polmir. They know something happened with Pola. They didn't kill Pola yet. No. They used chlorophone. So soft. Yeah, I noticed too. That didn't make a sound. Search that way. And you, the shark. And now it's closed. Hell yeah. Was it closed? No, he did like open it and then he run. He run. What sharp little eyes you've got. Is this the shark pool? Yeah, it's the shark pool. No, this is the normal pool. No, it's not. This is the other one. But they're gonna do this. The pools are connected with the tunnel. Oh, now he's bleeding. Yeah. Blood in the tank. There they come. He has to go to the tunnel hatch. Yeah, but... But what? The sharks. Only two. There were four, right? There's the other one. Better luck next time. That was number four. I'll get back to him just as soon as I can. Anything else? Phil and Pola's dead. Okay. Okay. Yeah, but here. Put someone else jacked in. You see the... Yes. Why? Shouldn't you get out those wet clothes? You'll catch your death cold. Do you think just like Pussy Galore, he can win her over? No. What a blow it must have been. You having a failure. Well, you can't win them all. I already said it. Like, he can't win her over. Catch her! Are you rooting for the villains now? Why are you rooting for the villains now? Because he slept with her? No, because he's disgusting in this movie. All the sex... He goes naked in his bed. In his... He has a sexy sentence. He's funny. That's not funny. How did they find him so fast? He's being watched everywhere. On the parade. I think the Junk Canoe is a real parade in the Bahamas. I think it's not fiction. It's not good you're trying to escape Mr Bond. I don't want to escape. She's a good villain, right? She's pretty convincing. Dispect the people on her side. Trying to kill Bond. And then he does like this. He's gonna swift her around? Between his fingers too. He used her as a shield. One of my friend's sisters won out. She's just dead. So they have to find the bombs quick now. But they're now looking for the aircraft. Yeah, mainly the bombs. But the bombs are already in the boat, right? Yeah. I wonder if they really harmed a real shock for this movie. I don't think they did. I'm not sure, actually, to be honest. I hope not. I didn't kill an innocent animal for a movie. Would you have the guts to swim with sharks? Nope. I would like to say I would. But probably would be too scared. I do know they don't really harm you that fast. Unless you're bleeding. Unless you're bleeding. Or, you know, if there's like a really crazy one. Who are you going to ask? Largo? I don't think we'll have to. This bikini I find the best born bikini in the series. I wonder what you think of it. I'm knowing your fashion sense. So they kind of have underwater sex. I don't know how that would work. Sorry, James. I didn't mean to. What do you think of the bikini? Nice. Beautiful. But I liked her bathing suit. Yeah. I think she's the best looking bonger of the 60s. No, he gave it just like fun to give it to you. If it starts clicking, it means the bombs are aboard. See, now the camera is also a Geiger content. Yes. That was the watch before. Does he do like that? How did he get that right over there? I think he got the point. I saw them putting it right over here. Yeah, that would kind of ruin it if we already know everything, right? And then we're just waiting for Bond to catch up. Yeah. He found him, right? Yeah. Somewhere there is that thingy, right? Was that only at the outside? Like the lever. Yeah. Where did you get that? I bought it this morning. No, why should I? And now you are caught. What is he going to do with her? He's going to kill her? By Miami. But why? Today, we're going to pick a major city. Oh, it's the closest to the Bahamas. And also in the book, they guessed it was going to be an American city because they found out that Spectre is Europe-based. But in the movies, all of that isn't explained. The troops of NATO to try and stop them. At least they're wearing orange and black so we can tell them apart. Have you ever seen something like this? No. Like an underwater war? Me neither. I think this is the only movie I ever saw something like that. What comes into help? But why yellow? Looks cool, though. Like a rocket, I think. Like a shipwreck? On the water. Oh, that's what you mean. But he doesn't have his tanks so he does it on his own breath. He has the mini apparatus. Oh, yes, of course. The ride in the head. And there's blood in the water as well. It's a second shark that seems to be heard in the movie. This I always find stupid in movies. What? To put on a different... And now it's empty. The glasses are empty. There's no water at all. Yeah. You can't put on a different glasses underwater. That's always movie logic. Where's Lago? Oh, he's escaping. Yeah, back to the ship. Now he's dead. But number one... Number one... He's going to kill him. Oh, Lago? Do you remember the real name of number one that you saw in the credits from Russia With Love? That's cool, right? Hydrophoil, boat. The boat is here. He's climbing on the... the outside of the hydrophoil. They're gonna die. Good luck fighting the Marines. Yeah. So this bomb that he has can never go off because he already put it in the sea. Yeah, that's what he said. That's fast. I don't know. Is this real or fake? What do you think? Jesus Christ. That's really sped up. She comes. I'm glad I killed him. You're glad? Who's he? I don't know, but he helped me. Yeah, and what happened to the guy anyway? Yeah, it's so weird because he's gone. He had no significant role. He shows up. He was the guy that detonated the bombs. They just throw him away and he's not even rescued. No. The bomb's still active and the boat was like... in the rocks. So the world is saved. Not only because of bombs. No, with the help of Domino. And that guy. And the guy we don't know the name of. So strange. Where's that guy? Where's the guy from Spectre? This time he's not credited. You were looking for his name again? Yes. Maybe next time you'll find out. We finished watching Thunderbolt just now. As always, I'm going to start with your thoughts about this movie. Like your overall thoughts. Too many characters. That's a really fair criticism, honestly, actually. Yeah, I was like who's this? And who's that? Oh, is she bad? Oh, I thought she was good. Yeah, you kept mixing up Viona and Domino at some cases even. Yeah. They look similar even though the one... To me they don't, but I've seen that before. But you saw this movie like a million times. This is for me the first time. Right. No, very fair criticism. Any other thoughts come to mind for overall of this movie? Yes. The bomb villain, she... She like... No, I'm still bad. Even if Bond sleeps with me. Yeah, he can't turn me. Yeah. To me, she's the highlight to this film, to me. She's the best character, I think. Okay. So, we want to get into your rating. We're going to start Bond's performance as always. What did you rate Bond this time? Four stars, just like in Goldfinger. Okay. I thought giving him three stars. But that's just his lines that he has to say. But his performance overall to play Bond it was good. But his lines... You weren't a fan of the dialogue this time. No, not at all. Because you see it in a way from guys and I see it as a way from girls. You're kind of turned off by the talking. It was too much. Too much too much. Yeah, a lot of jokes in this one. A lot of... Sexism jokes. For you, it's funny because you're a guy. For me, in this time it was not funny. Maybe in the 60s. I think it was funny, but I don't know. He also kind of molests the guy in the beginning. In the beginning of the movie at the health spa. He just grabs her. And then she almost lost her job. And then he just blackmills her into sex so that he remains quiet. Yeah. The 60s. Very fair actually. You're still a fan of Connery as Bond or are you turned off now? Yes, he plays it quite well, but the lines not everything has to be with that kind of lines. No, I completely see where you're coming from. Okay, shall we move on to the next one? The Bond girls of this movie. Yeah, there were two. But one of them died. Yeah, Paula she was more like a side character and of course the real main Bond girl so to speak was Dominique de Valle better known as Domino. Yeah. The sister of the pilot. Francois de Valle. Yeah. What did you think of her? Beautiful. I agree. Yeah. And the other one, three stars. Fine. Anything more on her you want to mention? Her bathing suit. Basically the way she looked. Yeah, anything interesting about her character as well? Did she stand out or? No, I mixed them up. Yeah, they look too similar to you maybe. Yeah. Okay. And I didn't know where Paula was came from so... Paula was just the assistant working for MI6 with Bond. Ah, yeah. And she was already on the island. Yeah, I guess so. I guess she must have already that's never explained. She even got an intro of her. No, she was just on the boat. Yeah, helping Bond. Yeah. Okay, I completely agree. I honestly feel like Thunderbolt has the best lineup of Bond girls looks wise. They're all beautiful women I think. Like Domino, the health spa girl, Paula, Fiona Volpe. They're all... They are obviously casted for their looks as well. But the other one Fiona Volpe, which we kind of already talked about, we're going to the Bond villains now. That's the bad guy, the bad girl, right? The Bond villains, Lardo and Fiona Volpe mainly. And Spectre. And Spectre as well. They were all working for Spectre. Four stars. Four stars for the villains in Thunderbolt. Yes. All right, explain. She was the first real bad girl. Right. I agree. And she remained bad until the end of the movie when she died. Yeah. She was... You're completely spot on there. You talked about Pussy Galore kind of being bad, but then she wasn't really like Domino. Just in the camp of the villains. But Fiona Volpe's pure evil Pussy Galore. Yeah, she had also the ring. And in the beginning of the movie I saw like the tattoo and I was like, oh, that's Spectre. He knows Spectre, but you said no, Spectre is like the octopus. Yes, she has the octopus ring. So Fiona Volpe stood out to you. Yes. And then you had Spectre. I was like very disorientated where I'm like, huh? Okay. They were in Paris. Yeah. At the bank where they speak English instead of French. That was a company like a front for Spectre. And then in the back room there was the secret Spectre room where they had all the... And we saw the cat again. In the head of Spectre. But you forgot what his name was. Yeah, I still don't know. You did know from Rush with Love in the credits because it was shown there. Do you think he's going to appear again, number one? I think so. I don't know, maybe. We'll see. It's like the last movie, right? Yeah, obviously in the last movie is called Spectre. But you think he's going to appear in the old movies? Yes. Okay, we'll see soon. There was one more villain we haven't talked about the main one, obviously. Emilio Largo. Oh, yes. The number two, right? Number two of Spectre, yes. With the eye patch. Yeah. What did you think? He looked like a villain. Did he stand out to you? Just a basic villain. Yes, he looked like a villain but nothing special. Yeah, so the four stars are mainly earned by Fiona Volpe to you. Yes, because he did also like swimming and diving underwater. But he's like number two, right? He's an important man. Why does he do his things fine stuff? You think his minions should do all the swimming? Yes. Yeah, good point. If I was a villain, I was like you do like swimming and diving but you over there, over there, over there and I would sit right over there. You were expecting him to be more like that. He was also involved in the action. Yeah, okay. Everywhere. Yeah, true. So Fiona Volpe earned the four stars here for Liret. Moving on to the locations. Yes. What did you think? Four stars. Another four stars here. So the Bahamas this time. Tropical setting in Fundable. Yes, and mainly underwater. A lot of underwater scenes. Yeah, but the Bahamas. Very beautiful. I agree. It was also in London. Yeah, a bit. We didn't see too much of them. And we saw also the other double O's. Yeah, did you think that was cool to see like the importance of this mission? Yeah, in the movies well actually in the books there's only three. In the movies they show here it's nine, but yeah. In the books it was 003, 007 and 0011 I think. Something like that. So the other ones died. They never explained that they were just three in the books but in here they show nine. Okay, the Juncanou Parade was also present in the locations. Yeah, it looked like the Brazilian Carnival. Right. Yeah. I agree. Like a Rio de Janeiro. Which may or may not also appear in a future Bond movie. Moving on to the story of the film. What did you think? I gave it three stars. Tell us about what you thought about the story. It was a typical Bond movie but there were too many too many characters. Right. And I gave, well it has to do with the enjoyment. We'll give the same explanation. Okay. So the story is free and we move on to the enjoyment which you gave. Two. Two, okay. Yes. So your story and enjoyment is kind of connected. Yeah. You didn't enjoy it too much. No. Well tell us about it. Yeah. I got confused very much. Because of all the characters maybe. Yes. And the location it was beautiful but I was like, oh they are now in a cave. Why are they in a cave? Oh there are bombs in a cave but I never saw bombs that they put the bombs over there. Oh. Okay. And now they are on the sea. Okay. And now they are in the house. And now they are in the party because he was like by the bad guys. It was too many to connect. All over the place for you. Okay. It was one in one place in the Bahamas. Did you think the movie was a bit too slow too? Or at least that's my, what did you think? Well that's your opinion too slow. A little bit too slow but a little bit too slow. Yeah. It's not that much. It's not like I think the promotion with love that was too long. Okay. Did you find that to be a bit slower even? Yeah. Yeah. I feel the story is less complicated this time. You know, bombs are stolen. Bomb needs to find them. That's basically it. Yeah. But they are like they make it convoluted to follow maybe in your opinion. Yes. Okay. Fair enough. Anything else to add before we go to the final score? We had a lot of sex in this movie. That they did, yeah. All right. So that brings the final score of Leeds 4 Fundable to 3 stars. But there was nothing with thunder and nothing with bombs. Yeah. You completely got that wrong. That was just the name of the operation to find the bombs. Okay. So, 3 stars. We hope you once again enjoyed. Next time we're going to be watching the next Connery movie. Do you have any clue what that is called? No. It's called You, I think You can see it on the poster. You only live twice. Yes. That's up next. We hope you enjoy it. That's not correct. Take care guys and see you guys later. Bye.
