Re: Bond, James Bond: Thread of 007 Action
I guess should post my thoughts on the prior 2 movies.
I watched from Russia With Love and Goldfinger.
From Russia With Love is an awesome movie in a lot of ways, but also pretty different from what the series would become.
I think Red Grant is my favorite Bond villain as he is an equal both mentally and physically. The whole scene between the two on the train is some fine piece of cinema.
Goldfinger is a completely different beast, but its the beast that sets the formula for the rest of the series. Huge set-pieces, one-liners and an overuse of gadgets.
It has an awesome Bond girl in Pussy Galore. IT has the Aston. IT has gadgets. It has one of my favorite themes. And my favorite capture scene.
