    This is from my visit to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago back in 2024. They had a display of props and vehicles from the James Bond film series. 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.

    Let's take a moment to appreciate that, in the Bond film 'The World is Not Enough' (1999), MI6 apparently keeps a low profile in *checks notes* Eilean Donan castle, one of the most visited and photographed places in Scotland. The dozen or so satellite dishes on the roof are also very inconspicuous 📡

    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

    The World Is Not Enough is a sad James Bond movie for me because it’s the last time we see Q played by Desmond Llewelyn. 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

    22. The World Is Not Enough (1999) Denise Richards is a common complaint for this film. I agree it was a casting whiff, but I’m not sure a different casting choice would have upped it a ton of notches. Brosnan portrayed Bond well in a film that is just forgettable.
