I met Roger several times when I worked the Stage Door/internal security at the Royal Albert Hall in London, one of the kindest, politest and most gentle of gentlemen I ever met. A TRUE star in how he carried himself and spoke to others, placing spending a few minutes and a handshake with fans above all else. An incredibly gracious individual much missed.

I loved that Bond movies always had that slight 'tongue in cheek' element not taking themselves 'too' seriously, but that moment was just crass idiocy and took me out of the movie completely.

    I love this film, my mom took me to see it when I was just eleven years old. It seems to have a lot of unique departures from past Bond movies. One unique touch that I loved, was the Smith and Wesson 44 magnum revolver used in the island scene toward the end of the film. This gun was certainly popularized in the 1971 classic "Dirty Harry" just two years before. Moreover, it gave Bond a whole new depth of character as an action star, and also made for a much more dramatic effect in the later climax scenes of the film. Great video - thanks for posting !

    My favourite Bond movie of the lot. It had everything. Action, chases, bizarre characters, humour, mega villains, a gloriously 'off the wall' 'Sherrif' that almost stole the movie [Kudo's to this day to the late Clifton James, his Sherrif JW Pepper can never be forgotten!] and one of the greatest 'Bond Girls'. In recent years the Bond movies have taken themselves far too seriously and into 'Jason Bourne' and 'Mission Impossible' territories. Bond movies were fun. They are from books written by the guy that wrote Chitty Chitty Bang Bang for lords sake! Now they are trying to be John Le Carre legit thrillers with everything that really made Bond so much FUN gone bar the outlandish stunts.
    Bond movies were always FUN and never took their eyes off that. And for me Live and Let Die was the pinnacle of that ethos.

    I still cannot believe my parents took me and my younger sisters to the drive in in a 1968 Ford station wagon in Madison Wisconsin to see this movie when I was 11 yrs old. I was most intrigued by the sexy women like Jane S. and the crocodile and car chase scenes not having ever seen anything like this before. However the voodoo scenes were quite disturbing to me as was the graphic violence and bizarre use of snakes.

    I'm into watches and despite loving all the Bond watches, my favourite was his Seiko g757-4000 that he wore in Octopussy.

    Roger was the right age in this film whereas by for your eyes only he was way older than many of his love interests

      To be fair on Roger, a lot of young women found him attractive when he was waaay past the age of 50. So the age gap isn’t so unbelievable, IMO.

    My fave Bond movie and I saw it in our local ODEON cinema and they had a red speed boat in foyer similar to the one in boat chase!

    This is probably my favourite Bond film. After it's a toss up between Skyfall (despite the minimal gadgetry) & Living daylights. I didn't like Daltons next film though - licence to kill.

    The reason why Bond originally wore a hat in the first 7 gun barrel openings is because stuntman Bob Simmons, who performed the first 3, was doubling for Sean Connery. The filmmakers wanted to hide the fact that it wasn’t actually Connery.

    Re the stunt boat scene, no-one, NO-ONE “improvises a stunt scene on the spot”. These things take meticulous planning and teams of people. Yes, the boat chase wasn’t scripted, it was built around the possibilities offered by the location by the expert production team on the ground, but absolutely not ‘improvised’.

    There's a difference between Live and Let Die's drug plot and License to Kill's drug plot. In the former, it's a billion dollars in drugs in 1973 when the drug problem was in its infancy and a billion dollars was a year or two worth of drugs. The plot was relatively novel. In the latter it's in the late 80s when half a billion dollars in drugs represented a week's worth of drugs and there had been dozens of drugs movie. Live and Let Die was ahead of the curve, which is one of the trademarks of JB movies, while License to Kill using a tired plot that felt triple recycled. Nothing new or interesting the License to Kill and not even done all that well either.

    You forgot to mention that almost every single car in that car chasing on the right side of the road are all Chevy Impalas. no doubt due to a sponsorship/product placement

    Btw I was recently disappointed when I heard that gorgeous Jane Seymour is not her real name but apparently only nicked from Henry VIII's beloved 3rd wife.

    She's my favorite Bond girl followed by Jill St. John. In the car chase scenes, most of the cars in the background were the same model Chevy (I think Impala).
