Agreed, but surely the dubbing and sped up fight scenes are more irritating?My Bond film irritations for each film:
06. On Her Majesty's Secret Service—The Ruby brain washing scene with Blofeld's dumb dialogue about chickens. The dialogue in the book was better.
Oh, I liked that. More annoying is Christopher Lee is underused, and the slide whistle to ruin a very good car stunt?09. The Man With the Golden Gun—M barking at Q. "Oh shut up Q."
Barbara Bach. Oh, and that Carry-On moment with the wobbly wheeled van bouncing across the desert.10. The Spy Who Loved Me—The girl that works at the Sardenia hotel. She has this annoying seductive voice. Obviously she wants to jump Bond, but it seems cheesy and not entirely necessary. We saw two similar girls in Dr. No and Thunderball, but they were more convincing and the idea of a hotel hostess secretly attracted to Bond worked better in those early Connery films.
Especially the double-taking pigeon!11. Moonraker—The revelation that dogs and pigeons love gondolas that can move on land.
Really? He's old enough to be her grandfather!12. For Your Eyes Only—Bond not banging Bibi. I would have banged her faster than Bond could say, "ice cream."
The whole film. Especially the Tarzan bit.13. Octopussy—Bond having the magical power to get a wild tiger to "SSSSSSSSSIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTT!"
Twice her age. Also, the toe-curling moment where they decide to play the Beach Boys.14. A View To A Kill—Bond in bed with Mayday.
I think it's one of the better Bond movies, but there you go!15. The Living Daylights—As this is in my opinion the worst Bond film, I can name a million things. My biggest irritation is the Michael G. Wilson cameo where he is bopping his head. I have never known anyone to bop their heads to classical music or an opera. Isn't that something one would normally do if they were listening to rock music or attending a rock concert? It simply looks bad.
The Russian accents are particularly cringeworthy. ("I am inwinsibill!")17. GoldenEye—The beach scene with Bond and Natalia. A little soap opera moment that is out of place. I also hate Moneypenny's mention of sexual harassment.
Jack Wade is almost as annoyed as J.W. Pepper. But that kung-fu moment is delicious. It was nice to see a hammy villian trying to take over the world again!18. Tomorrow Never Dies—jack Wade's cameo and Carver's impression of a kung fu fighter.
Off to watch the rest and get back to you!
