    Lots of bars like Pusfeller’s here on Mactan, they’re brilliant!
    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

    Is that Mony singing? I didn't know

    Yes, that rendition can be found on the soundtrack album.

    Nice voice

    Yes it is. I hadn't realised it was him.
    Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

    Jack Lord, the idiot who demanded equal billing with Connery :))
    Had he played his cards right he could have kept the role during Connery's tenure.

    I've always been intrigued by the term 'puss-feller', it seems to come up a few times in Fleming's writing. I wonder if it was common in Jamaican vernacular? And if so, is it still a common term?

    I think it was an early term for Trump
    "I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."

    Monty was never a bad singer. His then wife, Diana Coupland, sings the song later.

    The slashing of Quarrell’s face was quite brutal for the time

    I knew you would bring politics into this, TP :))

    I wish the story was about birdshit, like in the novel :v

    Is that 'Black & White' whisky on the table? I used to drink that brand sometimes.

    DN's men are incredibly well equiped - how many criminals had silenced SMGs in the 1960's?
  • Golrush007Golrush007 South AfricaPosts: 3,419Quartermasters
    Still my favourite set in the Bond series, the circular opening in the roof with the grid and the shadows are so simple but so striking.
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    I love how Dent keeps the cage at arms length, he's terrified of it.

    Fabulous design to the room with the ceiling grill
    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

    Dr No's "Sit down." Christoph Waltz really does impersonate that vocal timbre for his first line in SP, "Don't let me interrupt you."

    I'm going to repeat this from the last time we watched this together-

    The Spider Who Loved Me
  • The Spy Who Never DiesThe Spy Who Never Dies UKPosts: 644MI6 Agent
    It looks like the spider could easily crawl through the bars

    Not many actors in their early 30's today look as mature as Connery does here. Military service, drinking and smoking ages you I guess
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    In many ways I think Dr No was the template for many a Bond villain, the Monotone voice etc.

    The spider scene is just about all I remember of this movie from my first viewing at the cinema in 1962
    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

    Hey guys. I will not be able to join this today, unfortunately. I'm simply too swamped at work. Have fun celebrating Sean!

    Cheers, Gymkata!

    In the book that scene with the centipede or whatever was amazing. Made my skin crawl reading it :D
