The greatest Bond opening of all time. A gunfight in a chase scene after just having necked on a woman for a minute, then The Jump, then the best Bond theme ever. What a way to start one of the best Bond films ever.
I was an eleven-year-old boy when I watched this movie. It's the one movie experience I'll never forget. Everything about the movie was memorable. It was my first Bond movie, and it was the Bond movie I compare all other Bond movies to. I was captivated by all the beautiful actresses, especially Caroline Monroe.
@Randy White I agree pierce is the best looking, I can't understand those people who think Lazenby is the best. I think its between him and Craig that's the least best looking.
@@esmeephillips5888 yes, he looks more like a cage fighter or boxer that's knocking on abit. Hes not a naturally good looking guy like most of the rest.
I love how different versions of M always call 007 his best man, best agent, the best they have (etc) but only when Bond is off screen. M will never tell him!
I honestly never get tired of watching this opening sequence. The yellow jumpsuit. The ski chase. The parachute drop off the cliff edge. The union jack. The credits with bond, the gun, and the gymnast. The theme song by Carly Simon. Just pure gold.
And to think, the Bond films were all produced by an American family: Cubby Broccoli and family, along with Canadian Harry Saltzman in the first Bonds up to 'Man with a Golden Gun'. The films were directed by British directors whom Cubby hired, and the German designer (who became a British citizen) Ken Adam (recommended by Stanley Kubrick) who designed much of the look of Bond, rounding out the films with mostly British and Canadian cast and crew. A lot of folks don't know that it was Cubby and company who introduced the gadgets, and many more iconic elements of Bond, none of which are in the novels. As much as I like Ian Fleming's writing, the films are far superior stories in my opinion.
@@robbiereilly yes the film's have added some iconic elements to Bond. But I don't know what the Craig era has added to the character or his world that is positive. All I can think is a emotional story arc, as long as they don't go overboard with it. The only other thing is from casino royal, and that is attention to detail with the script/ story. Have that be the driving force of the movie not just the action set pieces. But they have to get that balance right.
@@robbiereilly If you change the configuration of the blue, red and yellow in the flag, you get the real Mr. Putin in 1977 East Germany posting 🕵♂🫀⛷🧝♀Gee, this movie is as old as me - Nobody does it better, than the spy who loves me 💓
Rick Sylvester, most famous for his BASE jumping using skis and a Union Jack parachute from Mount Asgard in Canada for the James Bond movie The Spy Who Loved Me in July 1976.
Best opening scene out of all the Bond offerings up to this point and that absolute classic Bond 77 theme..i loved it then as i do now but with every passing year it gets cooler and cooler the further we get from that beloved disco era
Can’t remember how many times as a kid I saw this and Moonraker in the cinema. Way before anyone had a video recorder. Every kid in my school had a birthday party and went to see these movies. Great memories 🫶
Recently everyone was stunned by the motorcycle jump and parachuting stunt that Tom Cruise did for the latest Mission Impossible movie. But I don't think many of them realized that such a stunt was performed in spectacular fashion more than 45 years ago. It is still breathtaking after all these years.
The Bond Series has never really gotten the credit for some of the insane stunts that they pull off. The water-skiing sequence from License to Kill is one of those stunts that I just struggle to fathom whenever I watch it.
Thing is, Cruise did that stunt himself at age 61. Moore was ten years younger when "The Spy Who Loved Me" was filmed, but a stuntman did this jump. The older brother of a good friend of mine in college from New Hampshire, USA (lots of skiing) was good friends with the skier/stuntman who did this. Do you now see the huge difference in this comparison?
My friend ask me to babysit her seven year old son a while ago. He had never seen James Bond before, so I showed him Goldfinger and this back to back. Instant fan.
This isnt the best Bond movie, but it's by far the best combo of best Bond Intro + best Bond theme song. Indeed Carly Simon, NOBODY DOES IT BETTER than you.
A monumental intro to the epic iconic action that makes James Bond stand out above amoung other action films series. This film is a key moment for Bond for featuring not only a new level of stunts, but also a great intro song with cool memorable visual effects.
My Dad was an extra for pinewood studios and was in many films including James Bond, the sweeney and many more. Grew up in London with the big boys at the time( Krays). This was the best time for movies and the golden age of cinema. Very proud
I am younger, so I was not alive when these James bond movies were released, when I was very little as a kid only the Pierce Brosnan ones came out. I decided to look at the Roger Moore ones, the Sean Connery ones, and obviously the newer ones with Daniel Craig. I must say, the Roger Moore ones appear to be the pinnacle of the franchise. Also only the Goldeneye one with Brosnan was good, the other ones were boring, and the modern ones with Daniel Craig are incredibly boring.
The first Bond premier i got to see....with my late father, and i can still see him smile now at me when the parachute opened up. Still the best opening sequence of any bond film.... something tells me the reboot of the franchise will take us back. In time to cold war 007... Miss you dad, thanks for giving me bond as my life long inspiration
Best opening ever. They don't produce quality like this anymore. I can remember it as a 9year old. Moonraker was a good one too but they peaked with this one.
Saw this at the cinema when it came out. I was 6 years old, it was the first Bond film I had ever seen and I was hooked!! It is by some distance Moore's best outing and one of the greatest Bond films ever. It also remains the only film I have ever been to see where the audience has stood up and applauded at the end. After The Man with the Golden Gun, the Bond production team and Moore were under pressure. Boy did they deliver!!!!
Roger Moore was a true James Bond actor; handsome, charming, charismatic, funny, well dressed, and so fun. That’s why he made the most Bond films. He was a just a fun Bond character.
The Spy Who Loved Me was a banger. One of the very best in the series, and the one that made Sir Roger my favorite Bond until Daniel Craig's appearance.
The beautiful lady in the cabin was Sue Vanner. She had modest part but, when I saw the movie in a theater, the memory became indelible - as evidenced by posting this comment 47 years later. :)
People talk about the stunt at the beginning -- which IS one of the best opening Bond stunt sequences -- but for me it's the design of this opening credit sequence. You have the great theme song but the photography, compositing, and the colors of this sequence are fantastic! The film is already one of the better Bond films -- IMHO, the best Bond film featuring Roger Moore -- but it has that fantastic opening design sequence!
RIP Roger Moore, the greatest Bond ever. Even the guy's name was pure innuendo, took me 40 years to figure that out. The true OG meme king, before memes were even a twinkle in my fathers eye.
The two most durable British film series, the cheap and cheerful Carry Ons and the opulent Bonds, had in common a smutty joviality (esp. when Moore took over) which this sequence displays: 'Tell him to pull out immediately... Sorry, darling, something came up.' For FYEO Broccoli hired an unlikely writer: Chris Wood, an adman. He penned risque pulp novels on the train to work, such as 'Confessions of a Window Cleaner', stiff with double entendres and what the tabloids called 'romps'. Another link is the treacherous blonde, Eva Rueber-Staier, Miss World 1969. She was in two more Bonds and the last classic Carry On, 'Carry On Dick". In real life Eva, now 72, was a respectable Austrian convent girl. She married an Englishman, was widowed, married another and is now a sculptress and lady of the manor in Middlesex.
All do that… *[holds finger in a circle shape over one eye]* with your fingers round your eye. I’m Roger Moore. Bang! Blood dribbles down. We’re on a submarine. Two sailors sit down and have a game of chess. And the cups start wobbling. And then a man that used to be in The Onedin Line comes in and goes “Why are all the cups wobbling, what’s going on?” *[Michael indicates if he can take his hand away from his eye]* Yeah, you can stop doing that now. And then he pulls down the periscope and he looks through it and goes “Oh, my god - the submarine’s being eaten by a giant tanker!” And then we cut to Moscow. And there’s man there, he’s Russian, he’s got eyebrows, you know. He’s on the phone going “What? A whole submarine? You’re joking?! I’m gonna have to tell some other Russians, see ya!” And then it cuts to James, Roger Moore, and yes, he’s with a lady. He’s necking with her. And he goes “I’ve got to go, love, something’s come up!”… (Michael: Aye! He means his cock!) Anyway, then he puts on his underpants and his ski suit, and he gets on his skis and starts skiing. And he’s being chased by these Russian shits in black jumpsuits with lemon piping. And he’s skiing along, and they start shooting at him and he goes “I’ve had enough of that, just stop it!” And he turns round with his gun, then he does a backward somersault off this ramp and he lands on his feet. I’m not sure why. But he’s not showing off. And then he goes over a cliff and he’s falling, and you think, God, James Bond’s going to die! He’s going to die! But then, at the last minute… (Michael: He pulls a rip-cord, right. And a parachute comes oot, and it’s got a Union Jack…) Michael! Michael! (Michael: But that’s how it ends!) That’s not the end of the beginning! The end of the beginning goes like this: glang glanga-langa langa langa langa lang…glang-alang glang-alang alang, nobody does it better…and I’m a naked woman in silhouette with a gun, spinning round. Makes me feel sad for the rest. Nobody does it…oh, bit of nipple. Quite as good as you, baby you’re the best. And now a really big bounce, right over, and I land on my feet. I wasn’t looking and somehow you found me…oh, bit of bush! I tried to hide from your love life…and a woman swinging on a Luger. A giant Luger. Oh, look at that! Like heaven above me…and now another naked woman, walking along the top of a gun, completely Billy Bollocks. The spy who loved me is keeping all my secrets safe tonight…and then one more big swing from a woman, legs go right up…oh, what was that? Too late! Nobody does it half as good as you, BABY YOU’RE THE BEEEST!!!!! I think it was something like that.
Remember seeing this as a small kid at the theatre. The audience gasped as he went off the cliff, then when the parachute opened a cheer!. Brilliant cheesy cimema!. 🤣 Niff said.
The Best James Bond ever ! Although this jump was performed by Rick Sylvester, an American climber and former stuntman, jumping using skis and a Union Jack parachute from Mount Asgard in Canada. this was, at least for me, the best James Bond movie.
The now "old days" were so just much better in so very many ways. I really miss them, despite being a victim of parental abuse from birth through adolesence.
I wasn't a great Roger Moore fan (understatement) but I always remember this opening sequence and the balance between the "how the hell is he going to get out of this?" and the union flag parachute opening. Laugh out loud and "brilliant" statement at the time. I'd've started the theme music slightly later - just as the canopy fully opens. It's probably just behind Dr No as a starting sequence because Dr No brilliantly established James Bond as James Bond! (if that makes sense)
The greatest Bond opening of all time. A gunfight in a chase scene after just having necked on a woman for a minute, then The Jump, then the best Bond theme ever. What a way to start one of the best Bond films ever.
Yes it is the best Bond theme ever
what about Golden Eye?
@@006kll Totally fake. This was an actual stunt.
Roger moore once said that this was the best bond he starred in. I agree
@@jonburrows8602 no it wasn't. The shot of Bond going off the cliff after the plane with the bike falling was done for real.
Absolutely the 007 song of all time for sure
Such a great opening. I remember watching in the theater when I was young. The crowd went wild when that parachute opened up!
Oh, man, I wish I was there to see that. Must’ve been so cool to see this in the theaters.
The free fall went on forever and clearly an influence on the Tom Cruise motorcycle stunt in last mission impossible film.
Same here , I was 10 and my eyes got huge wide when that parachute opened with Union Jack and the whole movie was fantastic
I was an eleven-year-old boy when I watched this movie. It's the one movie experience I'll never forget. Everything about the movie was memorable. It was my first Bond movie, and it was the Bond movie I compare all other Bond movies to. I was captivated by all the beautiful actresses, especially Caroline Monroe.
This scene never gets old. RIP Sir Roger Moore. The most Handsome and Suave Bond ever
My .name is James..007.🧊🧊🪂🪂🚥🔥
@Randy White I agree pierce is the best looking, I can't understand those people who think Lazenby is the best. I think its between him and Craig that's the least best looking.
The new Mission Impossible Dead reckoning trailer looks at it and then asks whose copying who?

I heard the bit where the Union Jack parachute opens used to regularly get a standing ovations at cinemas.
We didn't stand but everyone started clapping when I saw it. It's such a great moment.

This great flick was just on the movie channel here in Tokyo this week. I love that line, and Roger delivers it wonderfully.

That jump off the cliff is absolutely incredible.

My favorite james bond actor of all time sir roger moore
Roger Moore is still my favorite Bond.
Those gun and rifles sound effects send shivers down my spines I love the original 70s sound effects ❤❤❤
"But James, I need you. So does England." Country over pleasure.
Yeah well James already blew his load so wtf does he care bout her needs😂
I am younger, so I was not alive when these James bond movies were released, when I was very little as a kid only the Pierce Brosnan ones came out.
I decided to look at the Roger Moore ones, the Sean Connery ones, and obviously the newer ones with Daniel Craig.

Also only the Goldeneye one with Brosnan was good, the other ones were boring, and the modern ones with Daniel Craig are incredibly boring.
So true the Bond movies back in 60s and 70s had better plot and twist. Sir Sean and Sir Moore take it to new pinnacle
The first 5 connery ones were the pinnacle, the moore era was a bit too silly
The best bond song ever nobody does it better
They're the best because i grew up watching them.

The film is already one of the better Bond films -- IMHO, the best Bond film featuring Roger Moore -- but it has that fantastic opening design sequence!

The Best James Bond ever ! Although this jump was performed by Rick Sylvester, an American climber and former stuntman, jumping using skis and a Union Jack parachute from Mount Asgard in Canada. this was, at least for me, the best James Bond movie.

Laugh out loud and "brilliant" statement at the time. I'd've started the theme music slightly later - just as the canopy fully opens. It's probably just behind Dr No as a starting sequence because Dr No brilliantly established James Bond as James Bond! (if that makes sense)
