The drunk guy sat at the bar is stuntman Terry Richards who fights Bond in the music studio during Carver's TV broadcast in TND and is also driving the Mercedes that ends up hanging off the edge of the building in the car chase around the car park. But people may know him more for being the Arab Swordsman who is shot by Indiana Jones in the marketplace fight in Raiders Of The Lost Ark.
While in the actual film the boat-on-land sequence is short enough that you can almost handwave it away as happening largely via momentum, rain-slicked streets and "shut up it looks awesome and the music is cool", this cut seems almost designed to destroy your suspension of disbelief. I suppose I can shut off my brain enough to buy that the boat is moving via the rocket thrusters it has for some reason, but the sequence goes on long enough to give you plenty of time to wonder things like "How the hell is he supposed to be steering it on land?"
FUN FACT: The on-land sequence wasn’t filmed in London! It was filmed in Chatham Dockyard in Kent. I gate crashed the filming when I was 17 and was there for two long days. Unfortunately I was kicked out the day before Pierce arrived so never got to see him. I did, however, take some photos. They filmed for two weeks (not including set building) and exactly 23 seconds appear in the movie! A lot of work.
I've always thought you're meant to think King is a baddy (until he explodes). That's why the line "be careful M, I might try to steal him from you" is there, to wrongly suggest he's gonna try and do something like that later in the film. That deleted scene line "If you can't trust MI6..." and the shot of him looking smugly at the money definitely make it seem like he's a baddy on a first viewing. Even the way M says "Moneypenny, stop King" makes you think he's trying to get away with something!
@@calvindyson I NEVER noticed his wall stroking before!!! I think I may have been more distracted by the diegetic sound. Absolutely insane amount of grunts/awkward shambling! Makes you realise just how important the music is really! Speaking of which, extra points for using the Tomorrow Never Dies PS1 soundtrack! ;) I haven't watched this footage in years actually. Haven't even got to you talking about all the boat chase gags yet. The excitement is real!
God, that barrel roll looks way better as one shot doesn't it? That's actually one of the issues I do have with Brosnans films. So many stunts would've had much more gravitas if they weren't chopped to pieces in the editing room. That Helicopter/Bike stunt in Tomorrow Never Dies comes to mind as well. Pretty sure it has 5 different shots and it's just ahhhhh!
Same I was laughing! In today’s world as a custodian I would be so mad at him as emails would have been sent out please don’t touch walls so much, bond touched every dam surface now I got to clean it haha
@@MatthewHarkin They probably thought it'd work better - I don't have the sequence from the movie in my head but I'd imagine if this was a longer shot it might have created some issues with surrounding scenery not following continuity or something - or it could just be that they thought it looked better, but I agree many of the stunts would look better as one shot scenes.
Absolutely loved M’s comment about mad men in hollowed-out volcanos. I wish they’d kept that in. Your side-glance to the camera mirrored my reaction to it - thanks for posting, Calvin!
“We don’t often see innocent people getting shot like that in this era...” Goldeneye: Satellite workers meet Xenia... Tomorrow Never Dies: Sailors meet Stamper...
I think possibly the reason it has more of an impact in this scene is he was shoot on screen where as in Goldeneye the deaths of the Severnaya workers were partially off screen interspersed with fast editing and camera cuts and TND all the sailor deaths were offscreen
True, but in both your examples an effort is made to empathize, especially through the score, which is very melancholic in the case of Natalia covering the bodies of her deceased colleagues, and very dramatic in the case of the sailors drowning in the Devonshire’s wreck (you even get slow-mo, a rare occurrence in a Bond film!). Here, Cigar Girl just shoots the guy point blank and the action doesn’t even slow down to acknowledge it !
Excellent commentary on one of the great Bond deleted scenes. They should have used this extended version in the movie. The fish market chase scene is much more destructive and satisfying here.
I like the idea of going through the deleted scenes. This film was one of the first movies I actually watched the deleted scenes for (since It's one of the earliest movies I got on DVD, and I was going through a lot of the special features of my 007 films).
I wish more deleted material was available for Bond. I’d love to see that scene that would have been at the end of Quantum with Bond going after Mr White...
@@calvindyson Isn't that in the game with Bond going after Guy Haines, the Prime Minster's friend who's a Quantum agent, and has never appeared in any other Craig films?
Those traffic wardens were actually the genuine article and appeared in a contemporary documentary series on the BBC at the time. I forget the name of it but I do remember seeing them in the bond film and being quite excited. Yes I live(d) a very sheltered life!!
@@jimcannon Even when I heard they were in it pre-release, I thought this reference is going to age very quickly. But I suppose if you're going to have clampers getting drenched (which the audience is going to cheer anyway) why not have the bonus of them being real ones from TV?
One of them was known at the time as being one of the most evil parking/traffic wardens in the country - filmed clamping for no reason and getting a load of money out of it
Bond had quite a foul mouth in this part! Also, it's hilarious hearing: "KING, STTTTTOOOOOOPPPPP! STTOOOOOOOPPPPPP!" With no music. Also, Bond would _100%_ be quarantined if he was grabbing the walls like that nowadays! By golly!
This is one of the scenes that again just made me realize how hard acting must be at times. Brosnan has to act like exciting music was playing in the background and everything was really dramatic when in reality he just stroked some walls after stumbling through a staircase and messing around with an ID card.
I just wish they would have left the overhead shot of 007 doing the circles in the boat. I remember watching the trailer and that shot was in it and thought it looked so cool! Then I specifically looked for that shot in the PTS and never saw it again.
Great video! To this day, I am SO confused as to why Q-branch would have felt the need to include the huge square hole in the building at 7:39 that the boat launches out of haha. Anyone else ever thought this?
He's also in a lot of classic Tv shows including a famous Tom Baker Dr. Who by Douglas Adams called City of Death where he plays bumbling Detective investigating Julian Glover as an alien villain.
Maybe he didn't crash into the Bentley because they might have assumed the tipping scene wouldn't make it into the film? (so they could crash into a much cheaper black car for this rough cut) but then there's a lot of money being spent to create these action sequences anyway, I'm sure a couple of door repairs on a Bentley wouldn't cost too much, relatively... Also, would the pacing be a bit slow because they made this whole pre title sequence out of 90% unused footage, so we're seeing all the 'worst pacing' bits? Perhaps these unused shots wouldn't be as bad if they used a couple in the final film Very cool to see it all anyway, and you're right - there is so much effort from the cast/crew and money and time put into every shot, all just to throw it away!
It is remarkable how editing and music can make or break a film. The assemblage here really doesn't work, compared to how it does in the finished film and Bond films in general.
Does anyone else think that Pierce's giddy face in the alley scene is actually him out of character? Notice how quickly he changes back to pissed off/determined, which is his face throughout the chase. Does that mean he was doing that face in the dark, then as soon as he was into the light, it was back to acting?
Calvin: A rather stocked speedboat... Q: FULLY LOADED! I think you'll find is the term. XD Also I agree that the Police boats are unnecessary but it's nice to know why there was one making a barricade as that's always seemed a bit random to me, like did it just happen to be there? Or did Bond or someone else at MI6 somehow contact them to do it? But now we know lol. Although I love seeing the cut footage, I think the sequence we got was pretty much perfect.
What a great idea for a video. Very enjoyable. I found myself actually talking with you while watching. Sadly, I don't have any "Bond nerd" friends that I can have a conversation like this with. It's nice to hear that you have a Brosnan Bond voice imprssion too! I think actor Duncan Casey has the funniest one though. Makes me laugh outloud every time.
The World Is Not Enough constantly jumps between 1 and 2 on my list. It is a movie you could absolutely watch to be introduced to Bond, it’s got perfect ratios! (And well rounded figures 👀)
I read or heard somewhere that there were too many members of the public watching the action during filming along the Embankment so they had to cut a lot of those clips. Also, the very visible camera crane after the Sunseeker hits the pier at Westminster Bridge
If I could have been your 7th like I would, your videos are great but I had a short laugh observing I was your 700th. I particularly appreciate your "Reactions to deleted scenes" series, very interesting because it points out director's intentions in a deeper level. You are an accomodating host too, which is very important for a subject such as Bond. Best of luck to you and hope to keep on seeing more of your videos oftenly.
Interesting where M's "Monneypenny, stop King." line here didn't have the filter to make it sound that it comes from the phone whereas my DVD did have it.
10:21 "fully loaded" I think is the term. 😆 Somehow I've never seen that extended boat chase and they were right to trim it down. All the stuff with the police just doesn't add ANYTHING to the scene and all the extra stuff on the streets borders on Moore-era camp as you said. Plus the original stuff with the balloon just falls so flat.
good evening mr. dyson...another great video...two quick things...one...that deleted 'world is not enough' scene with the guy in the bar...i think he is supposed to be blind...i could be wrong but that's how it looked and maybe that's why he doesn't turn around and look...also...going back to 'die another day'...i know that movie has alot of bond references throughout from previous films, but...right before he sees jinx, he's sitting reading a book, and, though it's a quick shot, it looks like the cover of 'birds of the west indies' by james bond, the book ian fleming got the character's name from...i'm not sure, but if so, it's a nice little nod...well, that's it...my mission is complete...so long for now...peace...rocky
I find it curious how the TWINE title sequence as originally envisioned was received so underwhelmingly, yet when they released Casino Royale no one complained. Even opening sequence of arguably the best Bond film at all had no explosions or vehicle chases, just two guys hunting each other down. Sometimes less is more.
Great content again, thanks! Thought I had the 'ultimate' DVD but never seen this footage. They obviously cut the chase really well for the final version.
I think the pre-title sequence should've ended with Bond getting injured after failing to stop the explosion at MI6 HQ. They should've saved the boat chase for later because its the most exciting action sequence in the movie, and everything else pails in comparison.
Why would a boat even need a parachute? Well, I have another deleted scene here that explains it -it didn’t actually get filmed, it was a scene from an early draft of the screenplay that got cut after a rewrite: BOND: Q, one question: Q: Yes? BOND: Why did the boat have a parachute? Q: Isn’t it obvious? [JUMP CUT TO SUNNY BEACH - BOND IS DRIVING THE BOAT, Q IS HIGH UP IN THE AIR PARASAILING] BOND: Ah. I get it now. Q: Faster 007, I want to go higher! BOND: I think it’s my turn now. Q: Always have an escape plan! [Q UNHOOKS THE PARASAIL FROM THE LEAD AND GOES FLOATING OFF INTO THE SUNSET] It’s real, I swear - my uncle works for EON Productions!
Some extreme modes of transport have parachutes for braking. Fighter jets sometimes have them so they can slow down enough when landing on an aircraft carrier, and dragsters have them so that they can slow down quickly at the end of the drag strip. Once you’ve accepted the film’s logic of Q having invented a massively powerful rocket boat it’s not too fanciful to think he would have given it an emergency parachute brake. Bond deploying it in the alleyway also stopped it fanning out to its full extent, so not slowing him down too much, while still serving to block the view of the Police car and hopefully let him shake his pursuers off.
@@BungleBare Never mind Q's fishing boat having guns and rockets on it, I love that MI6 let him burrow a retractable wall into their building. What did he need it for? Doing jumps into the river from a government building :-)
Maybe I live in a parallel universe but I could have sworn this actually happened in a Brosnan bond movie, as I remember thinking the actor looked incredibly aged to perform such a stunt.
I think they were right to cut down the boat chase as it goes on forever although I do wonder why no one brought it up during the planning stage. The shots of Bond running through MI6 add to the tension with mundane obstacles slowing him down. Calvin, let's have more of these deleted scene reviews.
I agree how underrated this movie is. Consider each actor's 3rd installment & how they become the film where each OO7 owns the role (i.e. GF, TSWLM, TWINE & SF). In my opinion, the 3rd movie is the best performance each actor had to offer.
In the finished film, I found it odd how long it took Bond to run to the room where King met his fate given that King, walking at normal speed had managed to make it all the way there while Bond and M had such a brief conversation. So from a continuity perspective, the longer dialogue makes more sense.
The film version is more compact and still impactful, so it makes sense these things were deleted. I would have liked to see the overhead shot of the boat doing a 360 in the film though.
Outside of the cinematography, locations, and the set design, I can't muster any enthusiasm for The World is not Enough. The film is loaded with good ideas but all of them are undercooked, especially the characters.
You should do a Top Ten James Bond Trivia list. Things that happened on set or how some effect was made, or how an actor was cast etc. Like the fact that Goldfinger could not speak English and is dubbed throughout the whole movie.
Very interesting ; to me this deleted footage perfectly exemplies my biggest gripe with the film, and with much of Brosnan's tenure in general : it's tonally all over the place. For god's sake, you go from Bond avoiding a puppy on a road to the cigar girl shooting a random extra in cold blood !! No wonder the audience never really knew what to do with Brosnan's films. With the exception of Goldeneye, I don't think any of them really knew what it wanted to be. The constant changing of directors sure didn't help, but at the core I really blame the writing, tiptoeing between genres. Say what you will about Moore on one side and Craig on the other, but at least those films have a clear, definite identity. Brosnan himself did what he could, but for the most part the bipolarity of the scripts really did let him down, something that this sequence illustrates to perfection. Still, cracking video as always Calvin :)
Bond's comeback in 1995 was a strange time. EON had a lot of ground to regain. Also with 6 years past, there wasn't a house style to clip into. Dalton's films had got some backlash for their more serious tone, and Licence To Kill, the most violent Bond film had under-performed. They in turn had been made against what was seen as audience apathy to Roger Moore's light-ness. GoldenEye as such wasn't sure whether to bring some of Moore's levity, but also keep some of the grit of Dalton's. GoldenEye had in fact started as a Dalton script. Personally I thought Pierce got the tone right, he was nicely between Moore and Dalton.
Camera crew visible at 9:22 (Boat chase). The boat chase is far too long for me. Even the films final cut was a minute or two too long. I also feel that something could have been done to make the Bilbao sequence a bit more dramatic and the whole pre-titles sequence. Then the boat chase could have opened the film after the scenes at MI6. This in turn could have lead to some scenes later in the film which didn't work and simply padded out the run time to be cut out .. Cracking video as always Calvin . .
You say that the Police response time was really quick in Spectre, the helicopter crashed on Westminster bridge. New Scotland Yard is litterally right next to it, ain't it?
I liked the bit where she killed the person before the hot air ballon. It makes the villain seem real & threatening. And could of added more gravitas to Renards character, When she choose to kill herself rather than work against him.
I am already laughing a bunch and it’s only 5 mins in.... that part where brosnan going down the stairwell is perfect I’ve watched that 56 times in 3 seconds lol
I really don't like it. It's too on the nose. Also, as that was Blofeld's volcano, seems a little flippant for M to remind Bond of his wife's murderer (the film reminds us with it's title). And where were all these big breasted women in the volcano?
@@davidjames579 i think m just summed up bond past with the bond girls and took a lair and there are more movies with nuclear weapons at stake then just you only live twice
I do think the cigar girl offing that civilian would have benefited the final cut. This is probably the darkest of the Brosnan era. He’s just kinda pissed off through out the whole film, much more edgy. And that extra bit in my opinion would have added to it.
Is the footage at 9.08 edited in too late? After the boats pass Tower Bridge heading downriver, and then go into the canals, we then see them in front of Hungerford Bridge, which is next to Charing Cross Station! What tipped me off was Big Ben, as I thought I'm sure you can't see that from below Tower Bridge. It's just that one sequence (with Cigar Girl's Boat crashing a riverside building under the nearby Waterloo Bridge), but it seems so weird that they broke continuity as it'd be so obvious to many people. Unless the shot was supposed to occur earlier.
In this video you focus be on extented boat chase., but can you do second part with delete scenes with video commentary from Michael Apted. Another idea: You favorite DVD Special Edition DVD from DR No till DAD. Whyle of course Twine wil easly win, because R2 menu is difrent then R1.
TWINE has one of the very best pre title sequences. I suppose with the film already having the longest PTS it was necessary to make these cuts. Really interesting though.
I’m like you mr dysentery I love this movie that could be because it was the first bond movie I ever saw when I was like five. But still I think it’s a very underrated film anyway great video 👍
They missed a chance with the fish gag, have Brosnan find one in the boat after crashing though the market, try to hand it off to a bystander Moonraker style but when they're too shocked to take it just throw it away instead.
Although most of this footage was rightfully deleted. I like the bit where Bond runs through Moneypenny's office, the overhead shots of the boats and the Cigar Girl shooting an innocent bystander. Thankfully all the stuff with the Police was removed as it slows everything down too much and doesn't add anything. All the dialogue in the finished film is much better than what's in this version. Also at 9:22 you can see a camera on the left of the shot.
It's certainly interesting to see the stuff that was deleted from the boat chase, some of which I like (Terry Bamber's waiter performance) and some that definitely has no place being in the film (the dog). But the thing that makes watching this edit feel a lot worse than what is in the actual film is that it is composed almost entirely of alternate camera angles and shots, ie. the shots that weren't deemed worthy of being in the actual film itself. So although most of the time we are seeing the same action as in the film it is almost always from a camera angle that isn't as good as the final film. I'd like to see an edit that keeps the camera angles from the final film where possible, and just cuts in the extra material. I suppose I could do that edit myself, I'm just a bit too lazy. 😁
Cool as these scenes are, they definitely are better off cut. The boat chase should've been called "Bond's Driving Tour of London" and anyone else think that the first scene with no music is really weird? Just hearing Pierce running about, slapping his hands on stuff is kinda hilarious :)
Well I guess it’s time to start making predictions. What do you think will happen in November? It looks like we’re going back into lockdown and I suspect that bond 25 will get delayed one more time
I always thought the Restaurant would belong to the fish marked. 16:19 Bond ist firing the same torpedo for a second time in the originag Film. It's correct in this footage. Very stupid mistake.
At least in this version he fires the correct torpedoes - top then bottom one. In the movie he fires the top one and then the top one again, but the bottom one is empty. Always bugged me.
The drunk guy sat at the bar is stuntman Terry Richards who fights Bond in the music studio during Carver's TV broadcast in TND and is also driving the Mercedes that ends up hanging off the edge of the building in the car chase around the car park. But people may know him more for being the Arab Swordsman who is shot by Indiana Jones in the marketplace fight in Raiders Of The Lost Ark.
To think he spent ages rehearsing an elaborate fight scene for Raiders only for Harrison Ford to nix it as he had diarrhea.
Great bit of trivia! Thank you
He was also wearing the Wampa costume opposite Mark Hamill at the start of Empire Strikes Back, if I remember correctly ;)
You can also hear Pierce say "shit" when he runs out of M's office before Moneypenny dials the phone

The Man with the Golden Gun, Octopussy, Licence to Kill & The World is not Enough are the most underrated Bond-films! They deserve more love.
License to Kill is my favourite, Octopussy is one of my favourites, TWINE is my second favourite Brosnan film, TMWTGG is a really fun film too.
9:20 can see a camera boom in the top left corner of the shot, which makes its way into the final film
Brosnan and Connery. They can make you feel that they're born to be BOND , without even uttering a single word
Bond had quite a foul mouth in this part!
Also, it's hilarious hearing: "KING, STTTTTOOOOOOPPPPP! STTOOOOOOOPPPPPP!" With no music. Also, Bond would _100%_ be quarantined if he was grabbing the walls like that nowadays! By golly!

@8:54 this shot of the Q Boat spinning made its way into the Garbage music video!
One of my favourite Bond films. It’s so underrated.

Eargasm 😍

It's nice to hear that you have a Brosnan Bond voice imprssion too! I think actor Duncan Casey has the funniest one though. Makes me laugh outloud every time.
I believe the term for the boat is "fully loaded."
The Best Pre Title Sequence in all of Bond IMHO!!!! Thanks @CalvinDyson For Posting Buddy!!! Love the Funny Deleted Scene in the Beginning!!!
The World Is Not Enough constantly jumps between 1 and 2 on my list. It is a movie you could absolutely watch to be introduced to Bond, it’s got perfect ratios! (And well rounded figures 👀)
4:46 When your running late to class
I read or heard somewhere that there were too many members of the public watching the action during filming along the Embankment so they had to cut a lot of those clips. Also, the very visible camera crane after the Sunseeker hits the pier at Westminster Bridge
It's Waterloo Bridge isn't it? The Hungerford Bridge is behind them, and Big Ben's a distance away.
If I could have been your 7th like I would, your videos are great but I had a short laugh observing I was your 700th. I particularly appreciate your "Reactions to deleted scenes" series, very interesting because it points out director's intentions in a deeper level. You are an accomodating host too, which is very important for a subject such as Bond.
Best of luck to you and hope to keep on seeing more of your videos oftenly.
It is perhaps appropriate that the dog sequence was left in the ruff cut.
4:45 and 6:21 Man they should've left these in. Felt more captivated here in his performance than his usual stuff. Makes him less perfect.
“Rather stocked speed boat” Fully loaded is more like it Calvin :)
Interesting where M's "Monneypenny, stop King." line here didn't have the filter to make it sound that it comes from the phone whereas my DVD did have it.
10:21 "fully loaded" I think is the term. 😆
Somehow I've never seen that extended boat chase and they were right to trim it down. All the stuff with the police just doesn't add ANYTHING to the scene and all the extra stuff on the streets borders on Moore-era camp as you said. Plus the original stuff with the balloon just falls so flat.
good evening mr. dyson...another great video...two quick things...one...that deleted 'world is not enough' scene with the guy in the bar...i think he is supposed to be blind...i could be wrong but that's how it looked and maybe that's why he doesn't turn around and look...also...going back to 'die another day'...i know that movie has alot of bond references throughout from previous films, but...right before he sees jinx, he's sitting reading a book, and, though it's a quick shot, it looks like the cover of 'birds of the west indies' by james bond, the book ian fleming got the character's name from...i'm not sure, but if so, it's a nice little nod...well, that's it...my mission is complete...so long for now...peace...rocky
I find it curious how the TWINE title sequence as originally envisioned was received so underwhelmingly, yet when they released Casino Royale no one complained. Even opening sequence of arguably the best Bond film at all had no explosions or vehicle chases, just two guys hunting each other down. Sometimes less is more.
Obviously the PTS of Casino Royale is well above that Swiss banker scene with that silly "Would you like to check my figures?" -dialog.
Great content again, thanks! Thought I had the 'ultimate' DVD but never seen this footage.
They obviously cut the chase really well for the final version.
Always fun to see extra footage. Would love to see more from Dalton!
I think the pre-title sequence should've ended with Bond getting injured after failing to stop the explosion at MI6 HQ. They should've saved the boat chase for later because its the most exciting action sequence in the movie, and everything else pails in comparison.
Yes! TWINE is along with Octopussy the most underrated Bond movie!
Yeah Octopussy is great!
Why would a boat even need a parachute? Well, I have another deleted scene here that explains it -it didn’t actually get filmed, it was a scene from an early draft of the screenplay that got cut after a rewrite:
BOND: Q, one question:
Q: Yes?
BOND: Why did the boat have a parachute?
Q: Isn’t it obvious?
[JUMP CUT TO SUNNY BEACH - BOND IS DRIVING THE BOAT, Q IS HIGH UP IN THE AIR PARASAILING]
BOND: Ah. I get it now.
Q: Faster 007, I want to go higher!
BOND: I think it’s my turn now.
Q: Always have an escape plan!
[Q UNHOOKS THE PARASAIL FROM THE LEAD AND GOES FLOATING OFF INTO THE SUNSET]
It’s real, I swear - my uncle works for EON Productions!
😂😂😂
Some extreme modes of transport have parachutes for braking. Fighter jets sometimes have them so they can slow down enough when landing on an aircraft carrier, and dragsters have them so that they can slow down quickly at the end of the drag strip.
Once you’ve accepted the film’s logic of Q having invented a massively powerful rocket boat it’s not too fanciful to think he would have given it an emergency parachute brake. Bond deploying it in the alleyway also stopped it fanning out to its full extent, so not slowing him down too much, while still serving to block the view of the Police car and hopefully let him shake his pursuers off.
@@BungleBare Never mind Q's fishing boat having guns and rockets on it, I love that MI6 let him burrow a retractable wall into their building. What did he need it for? Doing jumps into the river from a government building :-)
Maybe I live in a parallel universe but I could have sworn this actually happened in a Brosnan bond movie, as I remember thinking the actor looked incredibly aged to perform such a stunt.
@@lifeschool The actor as in Q?
That puppy didn’t even double-take! There also wasn’t a man drinking wine, seeing Bond driving a boat on land and then looking at the bottle
I think they were right to cut down the boat chase as it goes on forever although I do wonder why no one brought it up during the planning stage. The shots of Bond running through MI6 add to the tension with mundane obstacles slowing him down. Calvin, let's have more of these deleted scene reviews.
I think it would have made a lot more sense if it wasn't part of the pre-credits scene.
I agree how underrated this movie is. Consider each actor's 3rd installment & how they become the film where each OO7 owns the role (i.e. GF, TSWLM, TWINE & SF). In my opinion, the 3rd movie is the best performance each actor had to offer.
In the finished film, I found it odd how long it took Bond to run to the room where King met his fate given that King, walking at normal speed had managed to make it all the way there while Bond and M had such a brief conversation. So from a continuity perspective, the longer dialogue makes more sense.
Would love to see you do more of these, Calvin, on other deleted scenes.
The film version is more compact and still impactful, so it makes sense these things were deleted. I would have liked to see the overhead shot of the boat doing a 360 in the film though.
Outside of the cinematography, locations, and the set design, I can't muster any enthusiasm for The World is not Enough. The film is loaded with good ideas but all of them are undercooked, especially the characters.
It does move kinda slow too.
@@FullArcher05 It only feels that way because the plot convoluted and tedious.
You should do a Top Ten James Bond Trivia list. Things that happened on set or how some effect was made, or how an actor was cast etc. Like the fact that Goldfinger could not speak English and is dubbed throughout the whole movie.
The cigar girls handgun sound effect is the same effect as the raptor magnum in nightfire.
Very interesting ; to me this deleted footage perfectly exemplies my biggest gripe with the film, and with much of Brosnan's tenure in general : it's tonally all over the place. For god's sake, you go from Bond avoiding a puppy on a road to the cigar girl shooting a random extra in cold blood !! No wonder the audience never really knew what to do with Brosnan's films. With the exception of Goldeneye, I don't think any of them really knew what it wanted to be. The constant changing of directors sure didn't help, but at the core I really blame the writing, tiptoeing between genres. Say what you will about Moore on one side and Craig on the other, but at least those films have a clear, definite identity. Brosnan himself did what he could, but for the most part the bipolarity of the scripts really did let him down, something that this sequence illustrates to perfection. Still, cracking video as always Calvin :)
Bond's comeback in 1995 was a strange time. EON had a lot of ground to regain. Also with 6 years past, there wasn't a house style to clip into. Dalton's films had got some backlash for their more serious tone, and Licence To Kill, the most violent Bond film had under-performed. They in turn had been made against what was seen as audience apathy to Roger Moore's light-ness. GoldenEye as such wasn't sure whether to bring some of Moore's levity, but also keep some of the grit of Dalton's. GoldenEye had in fact started as a Dalton script. Personally I thought Pierce got the tone right, he was nicely between Moore and Dalton.
Camera crew visible at 9:22 (Boat chase).
The boat chase is far too long for me. Even the films final cut was a minute or two too long.
I also feel that something could have been done to make the Bilbao sequence a bit more dramatic and the whole pre-titles sequence. Then the boat chase could have opened the film after the scenes at MI6. This in turn could have lead to some scenes later in the film which didn't work and simply padded out the run time to be cut out ..
Cracking video as always Calvin . .
You say that the Police response time was really quick in Spectre, the helicopter crashed on Westminster bridge. New Scotland Yard is litterally right next to it, ain't it?
Completely agree. TWINE is shamefully underrated. I saw it opening night in '99 and the speedboat chase played like gangbusters.
I really wish that graceful spin stunt at 8:50 made it into the final cut.
I liked the bit where she killed the person before the hot air ballon. It makes the villain seem real & threatening. And could of added more gravitas to Renards character, When she choose to kill herself rather than work against him.
I am already laughing a bunch and it’s only 5 mins in.... that part where brosnan going down the stairwell is perfect I’ve watched that 56 times in 3 seconds lol
I think the line about madmen in hallowed out volcanoes is from Bruce Feirstein. I believe he had it in his first draft for Tomorrow Never Dies.
I really don't like it. It's too on the nose. Also, as that was Blofeld's volcano, seems a little flippant for M to remind Bond of his wife's murderer (the film reminds us with it's title). And where were all these big breasted women in the volcano?
@@davidjames579 i think m just summed up bond past with the bond girls and took a lair and there are more movies with nuclear weapons at stake then just you only live twice
I do think the cigar girl offing that civilian would have benefited the final cut. This is probably the darkest of the Brosnan era. He’s just kinda pissed off through out the whole film, much more edgy. And that extra bit in my opinion would have added to it.
14:01 Is the wave runner with a top supposed to have deploy-able wheels as in this frame?
It’s amazing how much less exciting Bond running through MI-6 to stop King is without the music
Brosnan's subdued "Oh, shit!" made me think of this moment from Tomorrow Never Dies:
getyarn.io/yarn-clip/09ae43f0-42a1-4cc2-870e-491fde13f9b4
"S**t she just shot the guy" haha!
Genuinely startled me! I remembered a lot of this from previous viewings years ago but for some reason that particular detail slipped my mind...
Is the footage at 9.08 edited in too late? After the boats pass Tower Bridge heading downriver, and then go into the canals, we then see them in front of Hungerford Bridge, which is next to Charing Cross Station! What tipped me off was Big Ben, as I thought I'm sure you can't see that from below Tower Bridge. It's just that one sequence (with Cigar Girl's Boat crashing a riverside building under the nearby Waterloo Bridge), but it seems so weird that they broke continuity as it'd be so obvious to many people. Unless the shot was supposed to occur earlier.
If John Cleese had written this, that dog would be mincemeat.
In this video you focus be on extented boat chase., but can you do second part with delete scenes with video commentary from Michael Apted. Another idea: You favorite DVD Special Edition DVD from DR No till DAD. Whyle of course Twine wil easly win, because R2 menu is difrent then R1.
Indeed! Already have my video recorded for the rest of the deleted scenes :) will probably be up next week!
TWINE has one of the very best pre title sequences. I suppose with the film already having the longest PTS it was necessary to make these cuts. Really interesting though.
I’m like you mr dysentery I love this movie that could be because it was the first bond movie I ever saw when I was like five. But still I think it’s a very underrated film anyway great video 👍
Sorry auto correct mr dyson
They missed a chance with the fish gag, have Brosnan find one in the boat after crashing though the market, try to hand it off to a bystander Moonraker style but when they're too shocked to take it just throw it away instead.
More of these, please!
Interesting to watch, but I´m glad they cut those parts in the boat chase.
Although most of this footage was rightfully deleted. I like the bit where Bond runs through Moneypenny's office, the overhead shots of the boats and the Cigar Girl shooting an innocent bystander. Thankfully all the stuff with the Police was removed as it slows everything down too much and doesn't add anything. All the dialogue in the finished film is much better than what's in this version. Also at 9:22 you can see a camera on the left of the shot.
It's certainly interesting to see the stuff that was deleted from the boat chase, some of which I like (Terry Bamber's waiter performance) and some that definitely has no place being in the film (the dog). But the thing that makes watching this edit feel a lot worse than what is in the actual film is that it is composed almost entirely of alternate camera angles and shots, ie. the shots that weren't deemed worthy of being in the actual film itself. So although most of the time we are seeing the same action as in the film it is almost always from a camera angle that isn't as good as the final film. I'd like to see an edit that keeps the camera angles from the final film where possible, and just cuts in the extra material. I suppose I could do that edit myself, I'm just a bit too lazy. 😁
I actually like YOUR Bond Theme music playing behind your comments at the end. What version is that and is it available on CD?
Cool as these scenes are, they definitely are better off cut. The boat chase should've been called "Bond's Driving Tour of London" and anyone else think that the first scene with no music is really weird? Just hearing Pierce running about, slapping his hands on stuff is kinda hilarious :)
That little pupper is the unsung star of the film, sorry Brozzer.
It's a very good film, the story between King and Bond is si well done.... and then there's Christmas Jones
Well I guess it’s time to start making predictions. What do you think will happen in November? It looks like we’re going back into lockdown and I suspect that bond 25 will get delayed one more time
Going back into lockdown? In the UK we're about to open cinemas and bars.
10:21 - "Fully Loaded, I think is the correct term."
I always thought the Restaurant would belong to the fish marked.
16:19 Bond ist firing the same torpedo for a second time in the originag Film. It's correct in this footage. Very stupid mistake.
What else do you wear other than white shirts and black bow ties ( love the look!)
10:23 Or as Q would say "Fully Loaded" 😉😂😂
At least in this version he fires the correct torpedoes - top then bottom one. In the movie he fires the top one and then the top one again, but the bottom one is empty. Always bugged me.
At least Bond fires the two missiles top to bottom instead of firing the same one twice...
Jeezus, and I thought the PTS was too damn long already.
These deleted scenes may not be as good as the final cut, but at least we get an amazing performance from Brosnan. Such a shame most of it was cut.
