    A shame Dr Kaufman has only one scene- or is it?

    The Doctor played the leader of the Gipsy tribe that put a curse on the vampire Angel. He has a really good scene here.

    Stamper keeping surveillance from the rooftop... echoes Grant stalking from a distance in FRWL. But Stamper has lines of dialogue.

    I'm glad you wrote that, I was scared of spelling it wrongly so I just said "Dr Kaufman"! :))

    The Propellerheads had worked with Arnold before (and would again)

    Love Brosnan's laugh. Bond is enjoying this (hmm, much as Felix is smiling at the end of LTK since Paris has just died?)

    This is my favourite scene of Brosnan as Bond. He is the straight man acting as foil to the comic Kaufman. He allows Kaufman to steal the scene but is simmering with grief over Paris and seething with loathing.

    The reversal of fortune between Bond and Grant over the attache case in FRWL is briefly and comically replayed here, for Kaufman's demise.

    Implied dark bond between Stamper and Kaufman

    I never liked the remote driving in the parking house scene. A gadget that only cuts wires at that particular height? :s
    And Brosnan look like a kid opening his Christmas gifts minutes after he found Paris dead ….

    Music "Bond Meets Wade/Underwater Preparations" Not on the OST

    Nice touch with the fighter fly past.
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

    To be honest, I find it a bit overwrought as a stand-alone track, in places, but I like how it harnesses the 'Surrender' themes and it works brilliantly in the context of the action.

    It's a great inclusion on a driving compilation

    It's a pity Craig hasn't been given a uniform scene (yet?)

    It makes for a good action sequence but it has a plausibility of zero.

    Yes, great isn't it? :)

    Jack Wade has become more of a JW Pepper than a Felix Leiter.

    Brosnan's hair is too long to wear with a naval officer's cap.

    I’ve always really enjoyed the scene—a fun little sequence with a cool gadget
