what On Her Majestys Secret Service might have looked like with Sean Connery
Thanks Perdogg, have an idea devolve is scouting up all his great graphics on this. He has webpages full.
He did a great job as Pettigrew.
.
I may be a tad slow on getting graphics, pages, etc. tonight
I have thought and thought about it, and decided that Lazenbys best line occurs when he visit M at his estate.
M is mounting butterflies as Bond is ushered in and Bond states something like “unusualy small for a Pollycloris Bergenatis, and M says something like “I didn’t realize your knowledge extended to Lepidoptery” or some such.
That was awesome.

I made lots of retro-mod posters and graphics from different scenes in all the Bond movies
Some of the original 007 posters were a tad lame or boring - so I made some to fill in the gaps and confuse SPECTRE
The Moneypenny-Bond-M photograph never existed as I created it as a composite
I searched through several of your 007 and Bond folders and you didn’t have much on this particular movie. Your one profile page with all of them is great but has one picture missing;

.
Oh yeah
My Sean Connery profile page with links - and auto-background music
I just saved to an email to myself - bottom graphic link is dead
I should be able to find it or swap in another appropriate graphic
You have some even better Bond pages but I didn’t find them.
I always thought Gert B. Frobe as Auric Goldfinger was the best of all the Bond villains. I am not even sure why, just something about him was intriguing or interesting.
.
Yup
Cars, other 007 webpage themes
I got carried away with a never-ending 007 profile page back a while
Your big 007 one is really good though. Think it became hard for you to ‘open’, lol.
Thanks, that was good. devolve can’t view you tube and I never watched that movie. Is the pretty blond all through it the same one who is painted gold and dies?
I could do screen captures and make a slideshow of it.
This a screen test of Sam Neil for the James Bond role

It’s too bad we didn’t hear Herr Frobe’s actual speaking voice in the movie. I think they thought his German accent too thick. You can hear his real voice in some other films, it’s similar to the person who dubbed it in GF, but not 100%.
I saw that and the James Brolin (?!?) clips. Neill is a bit, I’m not sure, but he’s not quite right as JB, either. Maybe it’s a stiffness, or just a peculiarity about him, he strikes me as someone better suited to play a villain. Come to think of it, he might not be such a bad choice to play one in an upcoming JB film. I’d suggest a rogue ex-Double-Oh agent, but that’s practically been done to death.
Quite so. I’d almost forgotten about that. Draco would’ve wanted Blofeld dead just as much as JB and that all fell by the wayside with DAF, which unfortunately kicked off all the ‘70s JB silliness.
The slide on the Beretta (?) is locked back.
I wish the prop guys would pay attention once in a while.
