I sounds strange but there has never been rain or just bad weather in any of the James Bond films. I don't think that there should be bad weather in the Bond-films but it just that it's strange

You give me too much credit.

I was thinking of the snowstorm after the stock car race, leading to the barn, leading to the marriage proposal, leading to the single most significant moment in that film.

"Story appropriate"

Well don't forget the story-appropriate snowstorm in Goldeneye

Really! I've never noticed it before. I'll have to dig out the tape and have a peep.

Thanks Friedrich for letting me become aware! Most grateful, but as you say, still not enough rain is used!

YOU ARE SO WRONG!!!!!!!!!

When James Bond, Marc Ange Draco and Tracy Di Vicenzo are on the way to Gumbold's office in Geneva, we can clearly see rain! Not only at the windows of the car, but also when Bond steps out of the car to the office!

I've got you there! But nevertheless, I agree that there hasn't been very much rain in Bond. That could do something to particular scenes; it can create a particular atmosphere. But don't use it too much, like in 'The Avengers: the movie' !!!!!!!!!!!

"James Bond" has a very good point here! We've never seen rain or a thunder storm...have we?

Although it's such a minor thing to worry about, it would be great to see some rain in a Bond film.

I think it would have been good now, to have had rain when Bond and Kerim Bey take out Krilencu...all the rain, showering down, to the extent as in The Matrix (underneath the bridge where he gets picked up by Trinity).

WOW - it'd have been great!
