And my James Bond journey has begun! If you missed it in the opening, I HAVE seen the Daniel Craig films and love most of them but I have not seen any of the other Bonds. I really enjoyed this film and seeing James Bond saying all his iconic lines for the first time was super cool!
Thanks for watching! Have a great day! :)
You'll find the first 3 films (Dr. No, From Russia with Love, and Goldfinger) take steps to figuring out "the formula." You'll see From Russia with Love add a theme song that goes with the film, Goldfinger has the iconic villain and the Aston Martin - things that have become part of the formula afterwards. These films were so popular at the time, they made the first 4 films in 4 years. Dr. No cost 1 million dollars at the time and made nearly 60 million globally. That's 530 million USD in today's dollars. Goldfinger and Thunderball, the 3rd and 4th Connery films both broke the 1 billion USD after inflation. Imagine if someone made 4 films in 4 years today, costing less than 100 million to make and earning over 3 billion.
It was a flash bulb from her camera that she hurt Quarrel’s face with 📸💡😳
The car was a Sunbeam Alpine; the DB5 doesn't appear until 'Goldfinger'.
In the book, Bond has to give up his Beretta because it got caught in his holster in the book From Russia With Love. But they filmed the books out of order and that scene is in the next movie.
Nice. So great to see younger people go back to these. Lots of really good films, and this is a good one.
Felix Leiter is played by Jack Lord, who was the star of the original Hawaii 5-0, but also starred in Stoney Burke, where he played a rodeo star. Lord was a noted egotist. He demanded co star credit to appear as Felix Leiter again in Goldfinger, so they recast him. He was the original choice to star in Star Trek, but he wanted 50% ownership so they went with William Shatner.
Ursula Andress's Swedish accent was so thick, they had to dub her lines with another actress.
I remember my parents talking about "That's Smith & Wesson - you've had your six" ( I wasn't old enough to see the movie). This was when they talked even more about: Have you heard the Beatles? They sing "yeah, yeah, yeah". That use of slang was a big thing apparently.
I'm looking forward to your James Bond journey! 😎 👍
Fun Fact: Sir Sean Connery is morbidly afraid of spiders. The shot of the spider in his bed was done with a sheet of glass between him and the spider, which can be seen in one shot in the movie. When this didn't look realistic enough, additional close-up scenes were re-shot with stuntman Bob Simmons. Simmons reported that the tarantula crawling over Bond was the scariest stunt he had ever performed. According to Steven Jay Rubin's book, Rosie was the tarantula's name.
Sean Connery is my favorite Bond. And the 60s movies are by far my favorites from the series, tho i really like the 70s and 80s too.
Sylvia Trench is practicing her putting in Bond's room to kill time while waiting to surprise him. Remember, she previously told Bond (edited out) that her hobby was playing golf. And here's a shout-out to Jack Lord (Felix Leiter), future star of the original and best Hawaii Five-0 TV series. Book 'em, Danno!
Young Sean Connery is the best James Bond EVER!!!
What about David Niven? :D
Let's be honest, most of us, if we became millionaire celebrities, the first thing we would do is get fat and lost hair due to stress!
Timothy Dalton too!!!!!
OK this is dope! I would love you to react to the entire franchise! The Terence Young films were really good. The Timothy Dalton ones are criminally underrated. And my personal favorite film is _For Your Eyes Only_ -- but only because I'm a weirdo.
I love For Your Eyes Only! It's one of the Best!
FYEO is perfect. Nothing weird about it. Or any of them.😎
For Your Eyes Only is Roger Moore's best Bond movie in my opinion. There's nothing weird about it
FYEO was the first Bond film I saw and I still love it.
nope! you're not weird... FYEO was best Moore Bond film...and your synopsis of the Terrence Young films is dead on.... Terrence Young basically designed and developed the motion picture Bond character and persona.
It's always funny to watch reactions from the audience today. Some get pretty upset yet I watched those movies as a kid in the nineties with my parents. Good memories.
Dr. No get's some criticism by newer Bond fans for it's slower pacing and also for some societal stuff that was more accepted in the 60s, like Bond telling Quarrel to get his shoes. It's obvious racism, but it was a different time period and from the original novels by Ian Fleming Bond has always been a more conservative character. The books were written in the 50s and early 60s btw. And Fleming himself was working for British Intelligence during WW2.
It has everything. Action. Adventure. Jack Lord's sunglasses.
In the very first movie, the Bond girls hierarchy is already established: Sylvia, the tertiary Bond girl you see 007 fools around with at the beginning before the actions begins. Miss Taro, the secondary Bond girl who is usually the villainess and in later films, the sacrificial lamb, and Honey, the lead Bond girl that James ends up in the finale.
Good reaction. I think Dr. No has several scenes that defined 007: The casino scene with Sylvia, the mission briefing with M, the killing of professor Dent, and the dialog between Bond and Dr. No over dinner. By the way, the lady photographer was Marguerite Le Wars who was Miss Jamaica. And her weapon used against Quarrel was a flash bulb. Something with which younger people may not be familiar.
When the movie was released, the critics disliked it, but the publicity and book fans loved it. This movie is quite faithful to the book.
Not just "another" Bond girl. The original Bond girl!!
If I remember correctly, I think when Bond flips the henchmen in front of the car was the first time Eastern open-hand martial arts (here, Judo) was seen in a Western movie.
Timothy Dalton did two Bond movies. He read all the books. My favorite bond! Ok Sean is great too!
I’ve been wanting to see this one again. Love the whole Caribbean vibe! No green screen! Lol!
Leeches!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
There is a scene in Dr. No's lair were Bond comments on a painting - So that's were it went. The painting had not long been stolen and strangely enough there is a new film coming out called Duke which is the story of the actual man who stole the painting and why he did it (starring Helen Mirren and Jim Broadbent).
Fun fact: In the original book, it was not a spider at all. They placed a centipede in his bed.
(I was gonna talk about the glass between Connery and the spider, but someone did it first hahaha)
After this movie your gonna love most of the soundtracks.
Yeah, wait till Goldfinger onward when John Barry was more fully in control. That man’s themes are a huge part of the Bond experience, IMO.
Loved your audition tape at the beginning, good luck :D
In the book Dr no was described as having metal pinchers for hands and being tall and slender and his eyes completely blacked out from contact lenses.
Great to see you start this journey! It will be exciting to see you react to them all and watch the changes over the years. My favorite bond was Roger Moore but I think the “best” was still Connery. And the first film shows you why. He was so cool and such a bad-ass.
Sean Connery is so Smooooth
"I've seen all the Daniel Craig movies."
*Later*
FELIX: I'm Felix Lieter of CIA.
"Do I trust this guy?"
And you didn't recognize the name of Bond's most beloved ally that he appeared in 3 of the Craig movies.
P.S. The original Astom Martin DB5 was in the second movie, "Goldfinger". That one is worth a look.
I love all the Bond actors and what they each brought to the role but Connery will always be the GOAT. The first two films are great but for me it's the third film Goldfinger where the truly recognizable pop culture iconic Bond film kicks in which was reflected in its enormous box office success.
Thumbs up just for doing this series because NOBODY (save one other guy) is doing these. Haven't even started in yet, but thumbs up.
This is 1960s James Bond ..the intro is very 60s ! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am very excited for you to go through these in order. You are going to love it.
20:49 best bond line
Seen them all. Enjoy the ride of double oh 7!
It seems like you don't remember Felix Leiter from the Craig films. He's a recurring character and ally to Bond in a lot of the films. In Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace and No Time To Die, he's played by Jeffrey Wright.
Dr. No was very faithful to the book and the character.. The goofiest interpretations were the Roger Moore films.. --- While it was faithful to the book, the studio felt that Bond needed to be a little lighter and not as dark or cold blooded as this first movie...
My childhood favorite movie series!
Gadgets and the girls! Maurice Binder's title work is unmistakable and John Barry's music is awesome. Enjoy the journey, only one other reactor is on the Bond journey.
In this original movie, the score is by Monty Norman, which is why he is always credited as the creator of the James Bond theme. John Barry didn't come in until From Russia With Love. All credit to Norman for creating the theme, but I think John Barry is superior in knowing how to use the music to best effect. I notice that Barry changed the theme around a little. Originally, it built up to a climax, but Barry *started* with the climax on top of the gun barrel sequence.
How can you not recognize the CIA-agent's name from the Daniel Craig movies? Felix Leiter was played by Jeffrey Wright
There is hope when young human beings love those "old" Art. "Old" meaning the days of human Art which has been torn to shreds ever since the turn of the Century.
Looking forward to this series, been trying to get sooo many reactors to watch these films, they always focus on the Craig films.
I love dr no it is my second favourite Sean Connery James bond film
Every bond is measured up to the original
At age 4, I announced to my parents that I was going to marry Sean Connery when I grew up.....
The budget of this movie was around one million dollars.
My top three are 1.)The Spy Who Loved Me 2.) Goldfinger 3.) From Russia With Love and I think Thunderball is really underrated. Craig doesn't impress me, or maybe its the dumb direction they took the franchise to. The first one he made was OK the rest are not Bind films IMHO.
Dr. No is a great start, though novel wise Casino Royale is the first story. Funnily enough Dr. No and From Russia with Love are canonically the other way round lol
Oh and you've seen Jaws, right? A Young Robert Shaw (Quint) is one of the if not the key villain in the next one. I went decades without noticing pmsl.
I agree Dr. No needed a little more, since his backstory is quite interesting. Chinese/German, His heart is on the RIGHT which saved his life after he was shot by the Triads (I think he lost his hands then too, I can't remember it's been ages since Ir ead the novel)
Favourite Bond Movies, 1 per era.
Thunderball from Connery
On her Majesty's Secret Service from Lazenby (Only one but one of my absolute favourite Bond Movies)
The Spy Who loved Me from Moore
Both the Dalton Films :D I can't decide, but I prefer The Living Daylights theme music.
Goldeneye from Brosnan
Casino Royale from Craig. (Not much of a fan of the last 2 Craig films :( )
Yes! Do. No was originally going to open a Chinese/German Restaurant .... You could eat there but and hour later you were hungry --- For Power!
As a San Connery fan, you might like to reavt to "The HIll", a fabulous movie
Love all the 007 films none I dislike. Been a fan since a kid 1980s.
I find them all different and enjoyable.
My favourite 5 are
1 You Only Live Twice
2 The Living Daylights
3 From Russia With Love
4 Octopussy
5 On Her Majesties Secret Service
Great reaction! You are going to be in for a ride with the 007 films.
Good reaction hope to see you react to all the other James Bond movies
Thank you for starting Bond movies. There's a couple channels where they focus on Bond movies, but few reactors overall. From Russia with Love was a snoozefest for me, but the most realistic Bond movie, from what I've heard.
AHH Yes... the credits Maurice Binder - fabulous. This movie a bit 'off', Thunderball much better. Goldfinger - 'TOP' of the list. Can't wait for your reaction to it.
🎶 Tree bline myzze 🎶
Great reaction!
Enjoy your Bond journey - it'll be a wonderful ride for you :) I'm really looking forward to them.
I also love that you're watching so many Hollywood classics :)
Apparently Connery was nervous and had a lot of problem with the Bond line. Kept saying things like 'Bond, Sean Bond'
7:50 Nothing suspicious about the woman taking a photo. Freelancers use to hang around in airports or restaurants at tourist destinations. They'd photograph anyone who came along and offer to sell them souvenir prints. No smartphones or digital cameras back then.
There was nothing "goofy" about the rocket toppling. Spectre was using radio waves to jam the ground control, nothing to do with sound waves. The radioactivity was present simply because Dr No had a nuclear reactor on the island to supply power. Very often, negative reactions to movies like this are due to younger people today having no knowledge about the past, even the recent past.
"Casino Royale", the first Craig Bond movie, is one of the best Bond movies, maybe even THE best. Unfortunately, the producers of the Craig movies only made one good film, in spite of the stratospheric budgets. "Skyfall", which is most people's favorite, is just sad. There's not one thing in that story that makes a lick of sense, the whole plot is pure stupidity. Even the popular (why?) theme song is a drab little thing, reminiscent of the "Diamonds Are Forever" theme with all the dynamism and musicality sucked out. None of this was Daniel Craig's fault, although he quickly got tired of the character, just as Connery did.
18:57 😂
If you’re going to keep watching Bond films you’ll need to get used to his partners and a good number of the women he sleeps with dying violently and often.
You can always trust Felix.
you deserve more subs
“Bond James Bond”
Have you read the original novels by Ian Fleming? Doctor No was the first movie although it was the 6th novel while Casino Royale was the first novel so the order of novel film is really staggered. This one is one of personal favorites though I've never made a worst to best lust of Bond films although I know what would lead and what would be last. Dr. No would be in the top 10 for sure though.
Fun fact Sean Connery was wearing a wig because he was actually hiding hair loss.
One other thing. The theme to James Bond was based on a musical number from a play based on the classic 20th Century novel _A House for Mr. Biswas,_ titled "Bad Sign, Good Sign."
th-cam.com/video/g6EuzGhIyRQ/w-d-xo.html
My list of Bonds, best to worst: Roger Moore, Sean Connery, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan, George Lazenby, Daniel Craig. Being a Gen X'er, Roger Moore is my Bond. Was never happy with the choice of Daniel Craig. IMO, they could've picked Clive Owen, Michael Fassbender, Ewan McGregor, Colin Firth, etc.
I second Fassbender, born to play Bond.... So far so nothing lol
And The Spy who loved Me is probably my favourite Bond Movie :)
If want to laugh you should see the first Casino Royale
How ironic! I completely lost interest in the James Bond franchise after Roger Moore retired. I'll be interested to see your take on them.
Omg, you even did the intro! I love this, haha. Get ready for me likely writing a lot and fairly lengthy comments. If you loved Daniel Craig as Bond, I think you're really gonna enjoy the movies that George Lazenby and Timothy Dalton did. They can in some ways be seen as predecessors to Craig in terms of a more emotional, gritty Bond.
I recently went on a whole monologue on Twitter about how the early James Bond movies were pretty much the first real modern day action films. This one had a budget of 1 Mil back then, which would amount to 9 Mil dollars today. So a fairly small budget that would increase a lot with subsequent films.
Sometime soon you should check out Austin Powers. 😁
Yeah Baby !!!
Took you long enough to watch this!
Connery was great in the first four films, his last 2... YOLT and DAF not so good.
It wasn't really the first installment because no one on the planet anticipated the institution it would become. I read all the books as a kid and I adored Sean Connery because he looks like the Bond that Ian Fleming described. However, Daniel Craig makes me wet.
I can't stand Sean Connerys James bond just feels dated..I've watched all adaptations personally I think Pierce Bronson I believe is how you spell the name I believe I like his more portray of 007 plus I think he's in the best first person shooter N64 GoldenEye game and I like his take
It is so sad that the only reason we didn't have Pierce Brosnan earlier was holdover contract problems from Remington Steele...
