    Pinder, Leiter, Paula and Q are a team around Bond. None except Q makes much of an impression, but Paula's the prettiest!

    Umm, flat delivery. Lacks the long friendship spark.
    The hanging up of the dinner jackets would become a spoof cliche...

    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

    You don't love Q, you ain't no Bond fan. Good thing I'm not Joe Biden...

    I wonder if the diving hatch under the ship is based on the Italian commandoes who did that to sabotage shipping in Gibraltar during WWII?

    Peter Hunt's use of wipe transitions gives the film an epic storybook quality.

    Vargas is a poor henchman, but perhaps coming after Oddjob that's inevitable
  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 21,797MI6 Agent
    Vargas is the Elvis of TB.

    Hey TB2, did you hear the Rum Collins reference?

    Vargas is the creepiest henchman ever.
