This is the Q Boat used by Pierce Brosnan in the opening scene of The World Is Not Enough in 1999 for a chase scene on the Thames River.

The dozen or so satellite dishes on the roof are also very inconspicuous 📡

neutral · AI labelView post →The World Is Not Enough is a top-tier Bond film AND a top-tier Bond song. Film: Brosnan's best performance, Dench gets a lot to do, Bond has more moral quandries than usual, Carlyle is a cool and grounded villain, opening sequence is banger. Song: Perfect blend of old-school vibes and modern band.

Also, Dr. Rabbit could easily say "Dr. NO!" and "The World Is Not Enough", so I imagined putting them both in a "Name That 007 Movie" contest. Maybe I'll get to it someday, or maybe someone else will see this post and steal the idea

positive · AI labelView post →The World Is Not Enough is a brilliant film that was ahead of its time. An ego maniacal Billionaire attempting to influence current events in order to directly enrich himself? Also has a big weird experimental vehicle. Literally ticks every box.

He will forever be my favorite character in all the films. He was killed by a drunk driver. “Never let them see you bleed. Always have an escape plan” my two rules
neutral · AI labelView post →The World is Not Enough is a Christmas movie. Furthermore, Christmas Jones is a fun character and Denise Richard’s gives the exact performance the character required - campy, which as an actor she excels at. You all are just haters.

I think the last time I went to a film with the whole family, uncles and cousins included, was THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH, on Christmas.

positive · AI labelView post →James Bond: The World is Not Enough: Every person in this film except Denise Richards went for fancy acting training. All treating this like Shakespeare. Richards is "Dr. Christmas Jones", a ludicrous role, and it's unforgiving. She's hot, funny, and an escapee from a 1970s Bond
