Seriously craig was good none the less obviously he's bond after all but could have done with a bit more humor I hope the next one brings back this era.
Bond was crucial created as a dark and cold blooded agent, and it's heavily seen with Dalton and Craig, but some humor does make the character more humane, as we can see with Moore
@@JustCurioustoday My issue with Craig is how little he resembled Bond. I dont mean looks so much as his stature, Bond is meant to be a guy who could look like he works in a office but is unpredictably strong. I got none of that vibe with Craig where he felt more like a WWE actor and less like a Bond character
This was the very first Bond film I saw. I was five - asked my parents to see it at the cinema after seeing a trailer for Octopussy before a Star Wars film (surprised my parents - they were Bond fans but were not entirely sure I would enjoy the Bond films at my young age). I really enjoyed watching it on the big screen - classic cinema with the red curtains that open just as the features start. Since then I have enjoyed seeing all the films on video (later DVD) as well as following Bond films on the big screen (but not Licence to Kill - I was too young to see it at the cinema then). But Octopussy has a special place for me as my first Bond film. This has got to be the best chase scene.
i always liked that scene as the scene of bond throwing all of that money to those who need is proof of roger moore's generosity as a human being and an ambassador for unicef.
From 2:11-3:24, that entire scene was shot in England, not India. Pinewood recreated the Indian market. Look at how it's almost sunset at that time, then switches back to daylight from 3:25 on.
Octopussy got the full cooperation of the Indian locals. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom had so many restrictions placed on it that they ultimately filmed in Sri Lanka. That should tell you what they considered an "insult" at the time.
@R4-P17 That's correct, in this movie India is just the setting and the villain isn't painting the country in a negative light. Temple of Doom does actually show the darker side of the culture and religion and no nation would really be pleased with that prospect, you really think they filmed that Nazi rally scene in last crusade in Berlin with local Germans?
@CEO of Secularism dude, u kidding me? Temple of doom was far from the worst one. Even in the original trilogy, I would say the worst one is the 3rd one. My favourite one actually is the 2nd one. Plus I found the villain pretty hilarious. "KALIIIIII" And Jesus Christ that heart scene was bloody terrifying.
My favorite childhood Bond film. Started my fascination with Indian and Sikh culture. And someone else mentioned, Vijay seemed to love hanging with Bond, what with all their quips.
My favorite scenes from Octopussy are many, especially this one and the one from the casino when Bond beats Kamal Khan or the other one at Sotheby's auctions when he changes Faberge's egg. Sir Roger Moore the best Bond!
Vijay looks so alive - handsome man! So is the Surdy with the gun. The locals must have had such a fun time being in a Bond movie! I think we need some of those 3 wheeled scooters or Tuk-Tuks in California to beat the traffic! Great for urban commutes!
@@grantmalone Ah.. forgot about that part.. not sure how.. but the modern ones are alot more serious and hollywood-like so my perception of it is alot different.
"Game, Set, Match," Vijay said to Bond with a bemused look on his face after beating off the bad guys with his tennis racquet. He had that same bemused expression on the tennis court back in the 70s, and whenever his opponent hit a really good winning shot against him, he applauded the opponent by clapping his hand against his racquet. What a class act!!
I miss movies like that, with a heavy cultural aspect but such hilarious comedy. Nowadays people would get mad and say it’s cultural appropriation. 😞 😢
Always liked Gobinda. Crushing those dice into powder. Menacing stare, man of few words. Last guy you want as an enemy. He looks like if Oddjob threw his steel bowler hat at him he'd just catch it in his hand like a frisbee.
Bond movies are really good ones, and we can learn certain attitudes like polite talking and exploring the world. When it comes to the influence he wants to have, we should think twice before we try to copy. We can't manage everything and be the boss like he does. That doesn't mean closing our eyes, I said we can learn to explore the world. And if we directly see a crime, we should listen to our heart and try to protect victims. But getting into every problem and solving it and having all influence as he does is impossible for us. We only waste our time and loose the ability to deal with smaller problems in the right way...
In every other Bond film since 1971, including this one with music by John Barry, an instrumental, orchestral version of the 007 theme is used: Diamonds are Forever 1971, The Man With the Golden Gun 1974, Moonraker 1979, The Living Daylights 1987 (with electric backing).
@@wenaldycool😂 in my country India ma'am Bajaj is two wheeler automobile brand. 😂 That Vijay rode is KEL brand of Kerala. Over here we say autorickshaw for tuk tuk and tricycle. 😂
According to the movie notes - the bicycle that sped between the rickshaw and the Jeep at 1:06 was not scripted. Some random bike rider ignored the signs and blockades that filming was taking place and just drove straight through the scene. The stunt drivers in both vehicles had to swerve at the last second to avoid him. Producers felt that it actually added to the scene so they left it in the final cut.
It doesn't seem hard? Well, then they've achieved their goal of making it look easy. But it is not easy; it's hard work. It takes weeks to develop a good action sequence, hundreds of storyboard sketches and endless thinking about how and where to realize it. Then you have to coordinate the stunts. Everything has to be planned 100 % in advance before you film an action sequence.
Vijay was awesome - they should've brought him back in more Bond films, to become the "Sallah, from Indiana Jones" of the series and show up helping Bond in random places.
So would the phrase "Keep on Sucking" on the back of Jolly Rancher hard candy, but it's still there...go check it out yourself .. "Politically Incorrect Candy" ;)!

This classic scene from the great Roger Moore (despite the goofiness) is much better and entertaining to watch compared to all the action feats performed by the current bland blonde Bond.

Vijay - what a legend. Taken way too early into the film.
Of all of the allies, Vijay looked like he had the most fun hanging with Bond.
The man looks like he's having the time of his life.
Too bad he is the one losing his life. He should've lived.
He must take great pride in his work, let alone working with James Bond.
All time high
His death scene always upset me more than any other of Bond's helpers. Even Bond says something to the effect of "...no more games."
@@robertbeckman2054 I didn't like that either.
But it was necessary. You don't go up against a snake like Kamal and not expect him to strike.
Vijay Amritraj was a very good Tennis player, hence the tennis rackets that feature in his cameo. At the highest point in his career he was 18th in the world rankings. He also played doubles with his brother, I remember some very entertaining matches with those two.

He is tenis player .
"We've got company."
"No problem, this is a company car."
"Rupeee, easy come easy go." Its still so relevant to every Indian. Mr. Bond was ahead of his time. 😀

Yes, Vijay beat Rod Laver at the U.S. OPEN and Bjorn Borg and Jimmy Connors at other times.
He was also in Star Trek The Voyage Home as a Starfleet Captain

I'm an Indian and this is my Favourite James Bond film!
I'm French, I was 6-7 when I watched it the first time, it was the first time I ever watched something to do with India.
This chase, meeting with Q, and stopping the bomb are the best parts in the movie.
@2:45 The bad guy is impaled on metal spikes on a wooden board and the man yells, "Get off my bed!" Classic.
Bond beats even Indiana with this sequence. Roger was the best, he could make anything entertaining! 🍷
yes chasing for a crystal skull through forest for nothing lol
@1:12 - So badass when that music plays.
The music which starts at 2:36 is even more badass. Love it

This is definitely one of the better Moore bonds it’s a really enjoyable movie with some fantastic stunts and great characters. Especially Vijay.
Тhere are no more subtle English humor in Bond films ...
They sure don't make movies like this anymore. What a tragedy that they don't.

In India they are called auto rickshaw. There are around 5 million of them in the country
they are everywhere in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and i guess most of east asia in some form or other
