RE: The laser was invented just in time to be used in “Goldfinger.”

If Goldfinger were smart, James Bond would have died with a bullet in his head.

Instead, he had to pussy-foot around and try to scare Bond and say "No Mr. Bond, I expect you to die".

BTW, that's true for every single villain in the Bond universe. Instead of shooting him when they had him, they put him in some sort of torture chamber, leave him alone, only to allow him to escape with some gadget invented by Q.

Get the villain to monologue, then you’re golden.

Movie villains always talk too much.
They seem to have an insatiable need to justify themselves, with delusions of grandeur and self importance. Me, Me, Me, I and I.

It reminds me of something I heard recently, can't quite put my finger on it...

About the laser technology, that sure turned out to be massively useful.

There was an SNL skit where the villians were on The Tonight Show saying those exact things. Mike Myers played the bald SPECTRE character with the white cat (best one to me was Donald Pleasence).

Myers used this as his “Dr. Evil” character in the Austin Powers movies.
