Favorite Revenge Scenes

CmdrAtticusCmdrAtticus United StatesPosts: 1,102MI6 Agent
For me personally, one of the aspects of the series that I always enjoy is when it's shown how clever Bond can be on out foxing his enemies and I wondered if members would like to share what scenes are there favorites.

1. Craig pinning the bomb on unknowing villain who thinks he has the upper hand
in the CR scene at the end of the airport chase - then his smug look of satisfaction
when the villain is blown up. No quip needed.

2. Connery tricking Shaw into opening up the exploding briefcase.

3. Brosnan in GE in the weapons factory shooting at the supply of canisters and
unleashing the avalanche of them onto the soldiers.

4. Craig shooting the fire extinguishers in SF to fill the meeting room full of gas to
create cover and make it harder for Silva and his men to see.

5. Connery in TB gliding through the twisting bodies in the underwater battle at the
end only pausing to rip off face masks and cut the air hoses of Largo's thugs
rendering them useless.

    I wouldn't call any of those scenes "revenge" scenes. I don't know what I'd call them, really. Of propper revenge scenes I would mention the "welcome to hell!" scene in DAF (007 believes at the time he is killing Blofeld) and setting fire to Sanchez in LTK.

    In FYEO, Bond placing the Explosive on the Diving Suit. What makes the Scene even better is that the Henchman inside swears before it goes off.

    But a proper revenge Scene is when Bond sets fire to Sanchez 'Don't you want to know why?'

    For cleverness, it will always be Bond's quick thinking in using the live wire to electrocute Oddjob.

    For revenge, I will go for Bond's killing of Mischka, particularly because Mischka was also on a revenge mission.

    Bond throwing the case of money to Killifer in LTK

    Bond clipping the explosive to the Bomber in CR
    Bond killing Mischka ( OP) as it seemed an impossible situation to escape from

    I also love the scene where Brosnan knocks out the annoying South African loudmouth in DAD, then props him in a wheelchair to gain access to the Isla de Los Organos.

    The killing of Sanchez in LTK is by far my favorite.

    Emile Leopold Loque's death in FYEO is second place. It shows just how ruthless Sir Rog can be.

    Loque is probably the best. I also like sealing Count Lippe in the sauna in TB. Going after Blofeld multiple times in DAF also seem to be revenge scenes. But I agree that most of the others aren't really revenge so much as Bond just dispatching enemies.

    I think I may have titled this post in error. Instead of revenge, I should have titled it "Bond Outfoxes The Hound". Though he uses his ingenuity it getting revenge on some of the villains like Sanchez, I was going for his ingenuity in any scene where he instinctlively adapts to a situation and uses his quick thinking to change the balance in his favor.

    There's also the killing of Professor Dent, Bond letting him
    Reach his empty gun, before shooting him. -{

    The one that made me sit up was in the next film.
    When Electra smuggly says "You wouldn't shoot me, you'd miss me" I murmered oh just pop her already! Then he did!

    I agree that Lippe "Don't you worry, I'll tell the chef!" Locke, and Sanchez are all good. I would add Silva to the list too. Even if he did get his aim of bumping off M-Manf. It helps the baddies in question were played by good actors.
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?
