"No, ma'am, I'm with the economy tour."


His reply as the tour group pulls Bond in from the swamp. Funniest line in the series, hands down.

Hahaha yeah

Totally agree. It still cracks me up. Moore's delivery is great.

reply

Ha! Yeah, great quip! Moore's delivery was priceless!

If only Danny Craig's Bond had 1/1000th of the Roger Moore charisma or witty lines, the franchise would still endure to this day.
Instead we're stuck with absolutely zero humor in the new Bond movies, along with medicore villains (Quantam of Solace villain wanted jack up the price of drinking water...Skyfall villain wanted to kill an old lady. Zzzzzzz)

reply

Yes also we see bond in the newer movies lacking in seduction skills.

reply

You are correct. The older movies had Bond with roguish charm and some pretty bad puns but at least Bond wasn't a fricking robot with no sense of humor.

"Skyfall villain wanted to kill an old lady. Zzzzzz"

Yeah, maybe this plot is quite lame.. but Javier Bardem's performance was quite impressive.

I was sure that Christoph Waltz would have done his wonders as a villain in Spectre... but it was highly disapointing. Seems like Waltz impresses only when he acts in Tarantino's movies.
