James Bond's latest case is to track down looter guy.

From the photo, he appears to be in a canal somewhere in Amsterdam.

007 could at least have asked for a Pilsner Urquell.

He ain’t got no class.

why did they go from the recipe given in the book to the now iconic, "Vodka Martini , shaken not stirred"? Was it a desire to avoid becoming an advertisement, or was it simply simpler for Connery to say?
These days, they'd probably have Bond order from the dollar menu at McDonald's if they thought they could get paid for product placement.
