Hmmm....okay, something a little more creative:

How about Thunderball? When Bond is under the Disco, doesn't he cut the hose of a SPECTRE frogman? And then later he makes a print of the photo he took while he was under there.

Another excellent guess, but.................

This was one cut scene that still made the finished print.

Licence to Kill perhaps? A can venture a few scenes as guesses, but what I'm thinking may be the scene you're thinking of -- in the intro: Sanchez and his men break into the room where Lupe and the man are lying in bed, and Sanchez orders his men to cut his heart out.

Yes, another solid guess, and perfectly valid, just not what I was looking for.

Perhaps a small clue to get things moving toward a solution:

"Hit the deck. This cut scene would provide a lesson learned."

The card-cutting scene in TWINE?

[trs007]

The card-cutting scene in TWINE?

And now we have the correct answer. Correct, Major. Over to you....

[MajorB]

Aha! So "finished print" was a red herring! I had stymied myself through overanalysis! Nicely done, trs!

Howzabout:

Not Bond's first appearance.

[Mr. Blofeld]

FRWL, where the SPECTRE operative (who is not Bond) gets killed by Grant?

OHMSS, where Lazenby as Bond's first appearance is not Bond the character's first appearance in the series?

Dr. No, where Bond's first appearance in the gambling club is not his first appearance outside of printed media (he was played as an American by Barry Nelson in a 1954 episode of Climax!)?

[MajorB]

FRWL, where the SPECTRE operative (who is not Bond) gets killed by Grant?

And my clue lasts a grand total of 13 minutes!

I figured that would be either very tough or very easy. Nicely done, Mr. B. Your turn!

[Mr. Blofeld]

Thankee, sir.

Your clue:

Fishing with live bait is a messy business, indeed.

Hmmmmmmmmm, For Your Eyes Only?

Nope; try again.

LTK?

[Mr. Blofeld]

LTK?

Nope, not that one...

[MajorB]

TWINE? (M having used Elektra as bait?)

[Mr. Blofeld]

TWINE? (M having used Elektra as bait?)

No; the fish are indeed literal fish.

[QOS007]

Thankee, sir.

Your clue:

YOLT?

[Mr. Blofeld]

Thankee, sir.

Your clue:

YOLT?

Correct! First Helga Brandt, then Hans, are eaten alive by the piranha in the volcano bridge lake.

Your turn, QOS007!

It's been over a week. So, if there are no objections, I'll claim squatters rights, throw out an easy one and get things moving. . .


This scene took balls to film.

[Mr. Blofeld]

This scene took balls to film.

The bolas scene from Moonraker?

Pending that, the torture scene from Casino Royale...

Not balls, bolas, 007. Not CR scene, either.

[MajorB]

The pool table scene in Goldfinger?

[trs007]

The pool table scene in Goldfinger?

Major, out of respect for the H*LL I put you through with the vehicle game, and the fact this puzzle was a "filler" since the true giver never showed up to enjoy the spoils of victory---I am going to say--close enough, right movie, not the scene I was thinking of and move on.

I actually had the golf scene in mind, but pool is just as good, heck, both activities involve making a ball fall in a hole with a stick. Mister B's CR guess was good too, but we never actually need the balls in the scene--it's merely implied.
But, I digress.

Back to you, Major.

[MajorB]

D'OH!! The golf scene!! I actually find it funny that I skipped over the most famous orb-related sequence in the films (or possibly now second most, thanks to CR). Many thanks for the "bye" on that one.

...Especially because it gives me a chance to use this clue:

This scene didn't take balls to film.

Pussy Galore and her flying circus??

[Tybre]

This scene didn't take balls to film.

The "With all due respect, M, sometimes I don't think you have the balls for this job" moment from Tomorrow Never Dies?
Once again probably way too easy/obvious to be true.

Ha!!!! Especially funny if you've read the book!

But an excellent guess, even if not what I had in mind.

[darthbond]

The scene in OHMSS where Bond (Sir Hillary Bray) tells the girls at Piz Gloria about Heraldry?

[MajorB]

Inventive guess, but not what I was thinking. Here's a nudge:

The activity in this scene would normally take balls.
