Biggest Explosion in Bond?

ZorinIndustries

I was watching SF for the fourth time yesterday with a friend.... we both agreed that Skyfall lodge presented us with the biggest explosion ever in a Bond film. I was thinking about LTK with the whole Sanchez deal, but this seems bigger. Agree/Disagree?

On the Die Another Day documentary they said that the explosion when the laser destroying the mine field was that largest ever up to that point. SF could be bigger.

We did quite a large explosion for real in the 007 music video I directed. Go to 2 mins 20

To my knowledge, the DAD scene is still the largest. The scenes in skyfall were big, but didn't cover the area that the DAD one did.

That's obviously got its budget limits but surprisingly well made.

Where did you do the GoldenEye style chemical weapons plant with the long tunnel?

Thanks. Directing films/music videos is my job.
I showed it to Peter Lamont the other
day and he was really impressed.

The largest Connery film explosion I believe was
the Disco Volante. Unsure about the largest Moore explosion.
I imagine the largest Dalton one would be the tanker at the end?

The Disco Volante was actually really blown up in full scale (not a minature). The explosion was so powerful that some windows were actually broken on shore.

Cool!
