The best thing about this franchise is how each film is a time capsule of it’s era. Fashion, music, politics, etc.
Totally agree
Yep! I agree. I grew up with Roger Moore and wow was he of his time. I love the others as well though.
Great observation and totally on point!
MoonRaker is total 70's. Absolutely my least liked in the series.
The best thing about "its" is there's no apostrophe when possessive
Watching the entire Bond franchise is a class in how movie making has changed over the decades.
I liked how PRACTICAL EFFECTS were used & gave MANY PEOPLE in the MOVIE BUSINESS Long Term Employment to support their FAMILIES until Digital FX Upgraded the business. It reminded me of how all the Traveling Carnivals disappeared once Digital Home Game Devices became cheap enough for everyone to own. You don't have to EVER come out of your House anymore. It's so sad really. Oh well, that's progress.

@@user-mg5mv2tn8q I suspect a lot of women in a few certain States in America would be right in thinking that their part of the World wasn't getting better!
She'll never make it through the entire franchise...I'd be surprised if she watches more than 2 more of the older ones before quitting on them.
Best stunts ever in movies history! Even the best stuntmen would agree.
Just letting you know, Ashleigh, that the James Bond movie series doesn't really kick into high gear until Goldfinger. Dr. No was a rough first attempt during a time when the studio didn't even know if the books would translate well to film. From Russia with Love is considered far superior, but plays more like a classic spy thriller than a James Bond movie. Goldfinger is actually where the James Bond franchise really established itself.
From Russia with love is actually one of my favorite Bond movies specifically because it does feel more like what an actual Spy might do (at least compared to most Bond movies). Granted I might just feel that way because it stands apart from the rest and doesn't have much competition for that niche.
"From Russia with Love" & "Goldfinger" were more faithful to Ian Fleming but it was all downhill from there
@@Jasta85 That's why I said that From Russia with Love is an excellent spy thriller, but it doesn't have the typical tropes of a James Bond movie, which started with Goldfinger. That's also why those two movies are generally considered the two best Sean Connery Bond movies.
@@stephenclarke2206 Perhaps, but I still love The Spy Who Loved Me and For Your Eyes Only, the two best Roger Moore Bond films.
@@44excalibur If you had to pick only two films that fully encapsulated all that is a real Bond movie (not those Daniel Craig wannabes), those are the two I would pick. Stunts of all sorts, awesome gadgets, adventure, fun quips and one liners, cool henchmen, dastardly villains, beautiful women, and exotic locales.
The next film, "From Russia With Love", is my personal favourite of Connery's Bond films, but it's the one after it, "Goldfinger", where they pinned down the "Bond-Formula" that becomes the template for the franchise moving forward.
From Russia with love and Goldfinger are my favourites of the Connery era
Robert Shaw is excellent as always
True, the pacing was difficult in the first few because they were trying to match the novels strictly instead of adapting for film.
@@daviddavid2890yes, those are his personal favorite Bond movies as well that I read. Also, the Goldfinger theme is the most iconic theme song of all the James Bond movie theme songs
From Russia With Love is the best Connery Bond
19:31 Notice when he used the Geiger counter he first waved it over his wrist, that's because many watches made around that time used radium to make the watch hands/numbers glow in the dark. So he used his watch to test the Geiger before using it on the package. Neat little detail.
These days you'd have to use one of those negative ion "health" bracelets that Amazon sells for the purpose of giving their customers skin cancer. I'm being facetious, of course, the purpose in selling it is to make money off chumps, giving them cancer is just an inevitable side effect of telling people to strap radioactive material to their skin. While the radium in watch faces was/is detectable with a Geiger counter, it wasn't very much and was probably too weak to penetrate the back of the watch. If the radiation from radium watch faces was the light from a glowing ember of a mostly dead campfire, the radiation from those bracelets would be like a 200W flood-light. In short, don't use negative ion bracelets (I just looked it up and the bracelets causes you to absorb about 2 µSv/hr, while wearing a wristwatch with radium causes you to absorb about 0.1 µSv/hr, wearing a pocketwatch in a breast pocket dramatically increases that to 0.71 µSv/hr, not a lot, but I'd still avoid carrying one of those around every day).
Radium watches caused a lot of their wearers to develop cancer, and the paint was deadly to those who painted the numerals and hands, especially those who would lick the brush to make it taper to a fine point.
Radium caused a lot of cancer back in the day.
The painting is of The Duke of Wellington ( Sir Arthur Wellesley ), who defeated Napoleon at Waterloo, with some help.
The painting had been stolen shortly before the film was made, so it's a sort of topical joke.
The painting was recovered some years later, but not from Doctor No's destroyed lair in the Bahamas.
That does make it more interesting.
Yes. Richard Sharpe helped Sir Arthur defeat Napoleon (Boo!) both at Waterloo and throughout the rest of the Napoleonic War . . . Didn't he also join British Intelligence and become a 'double-O' agent as well . . . ? (Although in his case, the double-O was less of a 'Licence to Kill' and more of a Licence to be Killed . . . in practically every film and TV project he's in! Why hasn't he bean Knighted yet?)
“What’s a Geiger reading?” Boy, that makes me feel old! Any Boomer or GenXer can tell you exactly what a Geiger counter is-it measures radioactivity. It was something anyone who lived through the Cold War knows instinctively.
Right! I remember drills practicing climbing under my desk in elementary school in case of earthquake or missile strike.
Or anyone that attended school and actually paid attention.
Never mind "What is a Geiger counter", how about "What is a radio"!
One of the best jokes in the Simpsons:
(A government inspection team arrives and inspects the nuclear power plant.)
Government Inspector: Okay, men. Geiger counters on.
(The inspection team turns on their Geiger counters, and they immediately start buzzing.)
Inspection Team: (In unison) Huh?
Mr. Burns: Ah, I suppose that's normal background radiation, the kind you'd find in any well-maintained nuclear facility or, for that matter, playgrounds and hospitals.
Innocence of a Millenial.
When Dr. No said "1 million dollars", I couldn't help but think of Dr. Evil. 🤣
...eerrr, where do you think it comes from?! 🤦🏾♂️
shower scene was also in austin powers too.
To be fair, one million dollars was an incredible amount of money in 1962. Adjusted for inflation, it would be over $10 million dollars in today's money.
@@lewsmith9708yes, this came out in 62 originally. It wasn’t released in America in 63
Ooooh yeaaaah BAA BEEE SWING!
Sean Connery had large tattoos on both forearms. One said "Scotland Forever", and the other said "Mum & Dad". They were usually covered with sleeves or makeup when he filmed.
Haha 🤣 I love the big "Don't @ me!" energy Ashleigh had when trying to explain the choice/order of Bond movies in her intro. That was the expression of someone who has stared into the face of internet fandoms and seen the terrors lurking within.
In the days of flashbulbs, photographers would often lick the end of the flashbulb to moisten it, in order to make a better electrical connection, increasing the chance of it working.
Exactly right, since MILLIONS of The Bulbs were Manufactured until L.E.D. lights & cameras were Upgraded.
Good to know.
it also had to be right before shooting too. if it dried out it could actually hurt the connection. Also those bulbs were single flash, later bulbs any salt or oil would ruin it and needed handled with a cloth or gloves. Only used the cube sets on the single flash bulbs as a kid but later worked 10 years in photography, have a degree in history and an electrical engineer for a father. Imagine using a flash pan with explosive powder instead of an electrical flash and needing to stand still for a minute.
@@strangebipednot led arc labs on high voltage. I stil use the bulbs
And it was a broken off flashbulb that she hit Quarrel in the face with.
The sunglasses guy is Jack Lord. Best known for his long run in the TV show "Hawaii Five-0".
"Book him, Dano!"
He was also considered for the role of Capt Kirk on Star Trek.
A show that, like the Bond series, has killer theme music.
Some of Hawaii Five-O" tried to be a Bond clone, with international espionage, a supervising, and all.
And since Magnum, PI was originally linked to Hawaii Five-O, that means Magnum PI is part of the Bond universe. Loosely speaking.
@@rcrawford42 Actually, the two shows were NOT originally linked. There were some passing references to Five-O in a few episodes of Magnum, but that's about it.
Felix Leiter is played by a different actor in every movie. And Bond meets him for the first time in every movie
20:37 "Who just walks around in heels and a robe?" The way I immediately shouted the name Blanche Devereaux at the screen had my cat jumpy as all hell! 😹
My wife walks around in heels and a robe - but only in the summer months :)
Gen x and older women did this all the time.
"You've had your six"
Bond then shoots the man in cold blood. That's the "License to Kill" part.
It was pretty hard core for 1964 to have the hero so casually execute a man.
The original version had the double O agents charged with doing the jobs no one wanted to admit to. The original story line had it set up so that there was only one double O agent at a time and James is the seventh one. Interesting tidbit- Barbara Broccoli is related to the scientist who crossed cauliflower and brussel sprouts to create broccoli.
Sean Connery and Roger Moore were the sexiest people to play Bond but the guy who sold the concept the best was Daniel Craig. He really did look like someone who would kill you and make a sandwich in the kitchen on the way out of your house.
The bad guy's gun in that scene is an eight-shot (7 in magazine + 1 in chamber)1911 Colt semi-automatic .45 ACP pistol, not a six-shot Smith and Wesson revolver. Pretty much sums up Bond movies and guns.
Thought this was 1962, not 64
@@gnosticnight Early Bond movies were low budget so they used what prop guns they could scrounge for a lot of the time, clearly someone chose that as a prop gun and didn't notify the script writers.
Bond inexplicably also uses a 1911 for some shots of the beach gunfight against the "Dragon" while reverting to his PP in the next shot.
The reason the radio operator hands his report to the secretary, who brings it to the boss, who then comes to the operator is because the operator is never supposed to leave his post. Everything is live, it's not all being recorded to a computer. If an important bit of information comes across his radio while he's running across the office, then it's lost forever.
It was also meant to establish the bureaucratic nature of the British Intelligence Agency - which you may note is called MI-7 (not the real name of MI-6). That's because the producers wanted to establish a layer of fantasy between the real world and the world of James Bond.
Same happened in Bletchley Park in WWII, most of the radio operators were women in the WAAF and WRNS, over 7,000, 6 out of 10 in the armed forces. Mathmaticians, crossword experts, linguists, some were clerical and some were cryptoanalysts.
"All I wanted was banjos, and I should've stopped it there " - Ashleigh
LMFAO 😂
I mean connerys bond does rape people.
“Clean up on aisle, my panties” 🤣🤣🤣 could be the funniest thing I’ve ever heard, and that’s saying a lot with all the sayings and one liners you have been so kind to give to us. LOVE your videos ❤
In another life, she'd have made a hell of a comedian, lol
This one definitely got me!
When I first heard the iconic “Bond, James Bond” come out of his mouth, I knew right then and there that Sean Connery would forever be THE James Bond. After watching your reaction, Ashleigh, I’m still sticking to it! R.I.P. sir
He is the 2nd best Bond... right behind Roger Moore
@@fredcasdensworld I agree but you really hit a beehive with that comment. Brave. Very brave.
Couldn’t be happier for you undertaking this Goliath of a project, Ashleigh!
And yeah, everyone knows the Bond formula but the wildly different movie-to-movie execution is one of the most fascinating things about this franchise.
THANK YOU for starting from the beginning. The franchise has its ups and downs, but it really irks me when movie channels decide to just skip movies in franchises! It's a roller-coaster, and you're supposed to enjoy the ride for what it is.
"That intro is fun"
Welcome to the fandom. 90% of the love is to the intro. You're in for a real treat with the rest of the series :D
DA da dun
Fun thing: For the longest time I had my favourite Bond theme stuck in my head. I couldn't place which film it was from, but it was definitely a Bond theme.
Then it hit me the other day, the tune I had been humming for the past few years was from one of the Austin Powers films, it's Dr Evil's theme :D
Your rage over the camera moving away from showering Connery was glorious!
Ashleigh, you naughty woman. We do love ya', you cheeky thing!
Oh, yeah! Do it Ashleigh! Watch all of them! In order. Don't get confused about Sean leaving for a movie and returning either. Follow the release order.
Yes, and watch the Austin Powers films after watching all the Bond films.
I skipped the thunderball remake and the original Casino Royal and I enjoyed it immensely
There is the Casino Royal with Orison Wells. Peter Sellers and that creep diddler woody allen...
@@naimmahboubi89you enjoyed… skipping it? Lol
Well, the first Austin Powers movie came out right as the Pierce Brosnan Bond era was getting underway.
So if you start to get a little Bond burnout, (should be no shame there, even from diehard Bond fans. There are a lot of these movies) I think it might be ok to switch gears a tad.
One option would be to delve into the Austin Powers movies somewhere around "Goldeneye". You will have background for all the Bond references by then and can then pick up the remaining half dozen or so Bond movies as you see fit after that.
I think watching the entire franchise in release order is the best way. You get to see how it developed and changed over the years and it will add context and history for the later films. You also can't watch Austin Powers until seeing a lot of James Bond because Bond is the pop culture Austin Powers is spoofing, so you need to know Bond to understand the jokes.
At the very least, you gotta get to _You Only Live Twice_ since that Blofeld is the one Dr. Evil is a parody of.
i agree from a big fan of all the movies.
@@Wired4Life2 You also need 'Goldfinger' for PG/AF and 'From Russia with Love' for Klebb.
I would say "Moonraker" is the last of the Bond series to have any obvious influence on the Austin Powers series.
Ashleigh was straight up dehydrated this whole film. 🤣🤣🤣
"Soften him up means 'beat him'?"
Ever see a hammer for tenderizing meat?
in the book, honey's backstory is more tragic.
it's implied that her family was killed by dr. no, when her father refused to work with him [how their home burned down]. she's raised by the former family's nanny, in a hovel till she was 15. it's here she began reading the encyclopedias, because the nanny couldn't afford to send her to school. when the nanny died, that's when she's assaulted by the nanny's landlord- violently breaking her nose [her one "flaw"] in the process. after that, she lived on the streets, where she became known for always carrying a knife and knowing how to use it. she's diving for shells, to sell them to american tourists, so she can save up and travel to nyc to have her nose fixed. once that's done, she wants become a high end call girl / escort so she can live "the good life."
at the book's end, she's the one that save's bond, by navigating the boat away from no's island during its contained meltdown- because she knows the area's waters. this is all while bond's passed out, due to injuries fighting the "3blind mice." at beginning of the next book, it's reveled bond used his connections to set her up nicely in jamaica and get her a job at the jamacian natural history museum- where her father used to worked.
Thank God! Someone else has read these GREAT BOOKS! Excellent summer reading. The author, Ian Fleming, was in espionage during WWII and ended up living the rest of his life on Jamaica, I'm pretty sure.
It's interesting because the film is pretty low-key compared to some of the later films, but the novel was the biggest, most explosive book of the series at that point, including a scene where Bond fights a giant squid. Also, instead of the tarantula, the threat sent to his room was a centipede trying to crawl up his urethra. Not so fun fact: you can generally judge how much these take from the Fleming books on how much genital torture or threat of genital torture there is. XD
@@ericjohnson9623 Makes you wonder what part genital torture had in Ian's real life spying.
@@missmartylynn Ian and Christopher Lee were cousins and Christopher ALSO did black ops stuff in WWII. It is not known whether they worked together.
Ashleigh, don't make a final decision until you get past "Goldfinger". That's when a lot of the tropes and stereotypes that people think of when they think of Bond started. "From Russia with Love" is a good movie but they still were trying to be a little more realistic and practical with the gear and gadgets.
I'll add Thunderball because that is my other favorite.
@@mikejankowski6321 Thunderball was one of the first true blockbusters with tons of marketing tie ins and merchandise -- but that was due in part to the hype leftover from Goldfinger. Thunderball is one of the quintessential Bond films... but has still some pacing issues.
My vote is still that Goldfinger is the other best choice for trying to win someone over to the Connery era Bond films, and/or Bond in general.
@@willarms5510 Oh yeah. I had a Corgi model of the DB5 complete with ejecting blue suit baddie and pop up rear plate. Great plot, great lines, etc. But you have to admit, Largo was a notch up on the personal badassery scale, and the Bahamas make for a more pleasant backdrop than Kentucky.
Ah, yes. My brother and I had a slot car racing track back in those days, and my brother got an Aston-Martin DB5 slot car for his birthday, with the 007 logo on the box. I got a Jaguar Type E slot car for my next birthday, which is a much, much cooler car, so I was happy.
@@mikejankowski6321 Yes, Thunderball is more visually interesting for it's locals in a lot of ways - but they are ways that are similar to Dr. No. Goldfinger has one of if not the best pre-gun barrel opening gambits and perfectly captures everything you want from a Bond movie in a quickly told vignette. It's one of the best sequences to 'hook' a potential fan and let them see what a fun Bond adventure can be like. Also, the finally of Thunderball, while technically impressive if you know how difficult it was to film - is still going to come across as 'slow' to a lot of moderns. Although it would add context to anyone who sees it parodied in a certain fight scene from Top Secret, haha
I could get into the attention spans of the younger genrations or that you don't know a lot of the details of history, science, or spycraft; but you are so delightful. This was the first movie of the franchise and an introduction to the characters and flavor of the stories, so it's amazing what was done on such a small budget. This created a new genre diverging away from serious, dark, plotting movies of espionage to a fun action-adventure romp with world-wide heavy consequences. The sequels with larger budgets didn't have to introduce everything and could take you on a whirlwind adventure to exoitic places.
Also, you didn't make movies with non-stop action then or it gets boring and even more unbelieveable - there are already a lot of over-the-top fantastical elements to the stories. The lulls drive up the suspense and cause the action to have so much more impact. They also give the audience time to put themselves in Bond's environment.
Ian Flemming wrote all the James Bond novels the movies are based on, and he led a very interesting life including as an international playboy(he came from old money); where he had a few run-ins with Nazi spies including at a fancy casino in Lisbon Portugal. Ahead of World War II, he volunteered to use his international talents (languages and playboy reputation) ; and during the war he was the director of a special division of British Inteligence(using a lot of creative thinking) where he directed operations including some extremely out-of-the-box ones. One of those was having a fake courier body wash up on a Spanish shoreline like it came from a British ship that was just sunk by a U-boat, and he was carrying papers and plans that indicated where the Allies were going to invade next - fake papers that referenced nazi operatives in England that were already found out and that British intelligence was using to feed disinformation.
After the war, Ian Flemming didn't know what to do with his life until he starting writing stories; and he incorporated a lot of his experience into them. There was a great difference from his real experience of the cold, dark, unpleasant, slow-moving operations to his fictional stories that he wanted to be engaging, fun, and alluring that the flamboyant "Playboy" spy of James Bond was created. He wanted and created a fantasy character that every guy wanted to be, and every girl wanted to have. That is one of the magic things of the Bond stories and movies.
FYI Ashleigh, the portrait at 37:18 is the Duke of Wellington by Francisco de Goya. The painting had been stolen from the National Gallery in London by the time the movie was released in what the newspapers called the "Heist of the Century". By then, international art thieves were suspected, and it was until much later that the real thief was called, a pensioner that worked at the museum. There is a wonderful movie about this called The Duke.
Felix Leiter, the CIA agent, pops up in a bunch of these movies as well. He is the American counter-part to 007. Usually by different actors until more recently.
I can't wait!
its , strange however Felix , changes races from time to time (movies), may be just a NICKNAME .
just like James Bond . as there have been many James Bond in Different Western Anglo Races , over the years .
and given the TIMELINE in the Movies , not ONE James Bond could work in Multiple ERAs .
@@markplott4820'different Anglo races'? You know the current Anglo-Saxons are a mix of several 'races' not just the 2 in the name. And that was before the celts and the vikings and the French and so on dropped by the island and interbreed for centuries.
Dog whistles harder asshole.
@@awkwardashleigh Bond movies were made out off order from books, Dr No was 6th book , Casino Royale was first and they made spoof of that 1967 starring David Niven that was planned to be first James Bond , it has Woody Allen , Peter Sellers , Orson Welles and Ursula Andress that is in this movie Honey Rider .
1935 novel in 1938 was made to a movie The Saint , and had lime "My name is Templar , Simon Templar" Ian Fleming claimed he had never seen any The Saint movies , they made 8 of those from 1938 to 1941 , most of those was starred by British George Sander, not s huge star,
It's a fun take but I've never applied to 'different agents under the same code name' thing. I think the main thing I like about Bond is the way it keeps changing up, swapping actors, making fun experiments in the style. It's more a fun sandbox than a proper cannonical world. @@markplott4820
Bond notices a painting in Dr No’s lair and stares closely at it. This painting is the ‘Portrait of the Duke of Wellington’ by Francisco Goya. It had been stolen in 1961. The filmmakers included it as a little in-joke, suggesting that Dr No had stolen it.
The movie where the "James Bond Theme" was called "The Doctor No Theme"
"007" is his code number. the "Double 0's" are 9 agents in MI6 who are the best they have, and have a literal "License to kill"
Inspired by the historical 'double cross' system or 'XX' on a file.
These were people captured / saved from the Nazi regime during WWII and after due to their scientific knowledge of usefulness in finding other Nazis.
In the USA this was 'project paperclip', because their files were marked with only a paperclip ( reputedly ).
The Military Intelligence ( M.I.5 or -6 ) or Special Intelligence Service had agents, but in the time of WWII, agents could kill foreign agents, something that was rationalised to 'Moscow Rules', where agents were not to be killed on both sides.
The enemies in James Bond films tended to be hang-overs from WWII; organisations like the people protecting Nazi criminals, Smersh ( 'death to spies in Russian ), a certain Italian underwater demolition expert, and units like the KGB, GRU, and Bulgarian Intelligence.
James Bond slowly mutates with the times.
The radio listening service shown in this film was called the 'Y' service and expanded enormously during WWII, to slowly mutate into intelligence gathering by many routes.
Double-O designation also indicates 2 kills.
@@stevetheduck1425 No, the "double cross" system was a counter-espionage programme run by the Twenty Committee within MI5, which had no similarity with Operation Paperclip. The purpose was to capture (or, in some cases, simply *invent*) spies working for the Nazi regime and either... dispose of them or turn them into channels for disinformation. One of the most notable cases was Juan Pujol Garcia ("Garbo" to MI5 and "Alaric" to the Abwehr), who was awarded an Iron Cross by the Germans (which required Hitler's personal authorisation) and an MBE (from King George VI), a few months apart in 1944 for his efforts.
Yes, and the "oh-1" agents have a license to thrill.
The "oh-2" agents have a license to chill.
And the "oh-3" agents have a license to ill.
It's made clear in the novels that there aren't nine double-oh agents. The service only has two or three of these top-line operatives at any given time. They do get killed in the field pretty often, though, so there's a high turnover. Bond has the greatest longevity of any double-oh.
The Mt. Rushmore of James Bond films for newbies: Goldfinger, The Spy Who Loved Me, Goldeneye, and Casino Royale!
Can't argue with those choices, pretty much the peak movie for each actor.
Well, yes, but one does have to argue for "Dr. No" in Washington's spot, or the rest of the films don't happen. So, "Dr. No," either "Goldfinger" or "The Spy Who Loved Me," "Golden Eye," and "Casino Royale" would be my picks.
I particularly liked Live and Let Die. Great song, Jane Seymore escapes a Bond movie WITHOUT a stupid name (Solitaire is a cool name),Yaphet Koto, the running over the gators, the boat hoping over areas of ground, and there is the Uncola guy . Lot to love about it
This actually my first ever viewing of Dr. No. I've see most JB except the most recent.
You deserve a ton of subscribers just for the "Cleanup in aisle Ashleigh" line!
Hi Ashley - there's two main ways you can get injured by radioactivity. One is if high-energy radiation passes THROUGH your body, damaging your cells. That is very hard to treat and is horribly damaging. The second way is if you are contaminated by environmental debris - for example, radioactive dust or water on your skin and clothing. These then irradiate you like the first way, only much slower. The team are just washing/scrubbing the contaminants off, which would stop any further damage.
Fun fact:
Sean Connery was already balding when he was cast as Bond. He is wearing a toupee in each of his films as 007. 😂
I giggled a bit when Ashleigh complimented his hair.
@arthurfields1639 I read, that they were able to manage w/out a hairpiece in "Dr No", but Sean Connery rapidly lost his hair, so in subsequent Bond movies, they had to use one. Didn't he star in the early '60's ina movie called "The Hill" or something like that, where he had a crew cut, so you could see, that he was on the verge of balding, but might not yet be described as such?
Getting bald didn't seem to bother Connery much, as he could walk around in public without a hairpiece keeping his anonymity, & not be mobbed by fans, at least until later in his career.
@@sparky6086 I don't think Connery cared at all.
A very bald Sean Connery was frequently called the worlds most sexy man.
I’m sure he didn’t care a bit.
@@arthurfields1639 Me too. And when she said: "Your hair is gone." 😁
Ashleigh as Ursula emerges from the sea: I always wanted one of those!
Me: Me too, Ashleigh. Me too.
You can usually find a conch shell on the beach just after a hurricane in Florida. The locals used to call them hurricane hams, because before refrigeration it was the only meat fit to eat when the bridges were out and the roads were damaged.
"His voice is so deep and sexy"
My grandma (1907 - 2004) used to say Connery' voice would roll down your pantyhose.
My (naughty) aunt (1926 - 2014) would then add: "Along with the slip and the panties"
Because of her strong accent, Ursula Andress was dubbed throughout the film by another actress, Nikki van der Zyl, for the spoken lines, and by Diana Coupland for the part where she sings.
It’s funny that you mention how slow the film was for you, but back in 1962 Dr. No was probably the first action type film that was cut (edited) in a much quicker fashion than other films of that era. This was down to British film editor Peter Hunt (who would go on to direct one of the best non Connery Bond films) who wanted the film to be fast paced, and thankfully Dr. No’s British director Terence Young was on the same wavelength as him.
The 2nd film in the series, From Russia with Love, is a step up from Dr. No in terms of script, budget, gadgets etc. Bond’s adversary in this one, Donald Grant is played by Robert Shaw, who 12 years later would play the shark catcher Quint in Steven Spielberg’s “Jaws.” This 2nd film starts to show a little of the ‘Bond formula,’ that movie goers would come to love, but the true formula doesn’t cement itself till the 3rd film, Goldfinger, the following year. Get to that one and I think you’ll be interested enough to watch the entire series.
I find the Millennial obsession with films being cut down to the pacing of a doritos commercial to be so utterly exasperating. Just let the story breathe! Relax! You'll enjoy it! I promise!
@@stillhuntre55 so true. We can but hope that with Ashleigh’s obsession with wanting to see Connery’s ‘pee pee’ again means that she might stick around to watch his five other EON produced Bond films! 🤣
@@andrewroberts299 Yeah she can skip Never Say Never Again as it was a total redo rip off of Thunderball and only Sean made it worth watching.
1) He was wiping her lipstick off of his lips with her towel, 2) When he paused to look at that painting it is because in real life, that very famous painting had been stolen from a museum, so they put a copy on the set and wrote it into the script to show Dr. No’s criminal activities, 3) the next two Bond movies are way better. Watch “Goldfinger” next and you will be hooked.
At least after Goldfinger, she’ll be ready for Austin Powers. Lots of great oneliners in that one.
Skipping from Russia with Love is practically a crime. Top 3 for me and it goes so well with Goldfinger too. Between them they cover the full range of Bond plots. One is grounded and could (almost) be a true story from the 1st cold war or WW2. Where as Goldfinger goes right to the other end of things. Both great of course. But if it's only 1 then it has to be Goldfinger. Like already said best prep for Austin Powers and I want to see Ashleigh's face when Honour Blackman introduces herself 😂.
Skip FRWL? Definitely not! Gotta watch em all if you’re going on this journey…even the ‘lesser’ ones
@@davidb1565 i always thought from russia with love was the most realistic of them all.
@@mattbond1285 Personally, I like FRWL more than Goldfinger.
Dr. No was actually 1962. The Second James Bond film, "From Russia with Love" was 1963.
It cracks me up how in just a few minutes, Ashleigh goes from sounding like a teenager, “…life before cell phones. Craazy!” to a 90-year-old lady, “…them blue britches.”
In the 30s-60s the establishing shots of everything were just the way films were made. Someone drives up, it shows them exit the car, walk up the steps, and then to the door. Modern movies edit some of that out, which is why older films can seem long to some people.
Strange how the most pedestrian thing, pandering to audience, became the norm.
Thank you for pointing this out.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver I'm not sure how a tighter edit is "pandering to the audience". Filmmakers simply realized that audiences could put 2 and 2 together and didn't need to have every detail shown to them. If we go back even further, the edit of 60s movies was already tighter than that of movies from the 1910s for example. It's just the art of filmmaking slowly being refined and evolving.
@@misterwhyte "Filmmakers simply realized that audiences could put 2 and 2 together"
How did you reach that conclusion to declare? Also, if you'll note, there are details that happen during those scenes you declare "didn't need to have every detail shown to them."
"It's just the art of filmmaking slowly being refined and evolving."
The way you talk, it's the art being removed and devolved. Thank goodness for Kubrick and Scorsese.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver I know because I studied this. You don't need to show a character parking his car, getting out, walking up the stairs, opening up the door, etc.
If you just show him pulling out in front of the building then cut to him being inside, people know what happened in between. It basically removes the unnecessary fat and keep the story focused on what matters. It's called an ellipsis and it's one of the basics of editing and storytelling. Or it is now because directors had to figure this one out. If you go back to the early days of cinema, ellipsis were almost non-existent.
Which brings me to, yes, filmmaking is an extremely young art and still very much being refined to this day. You probably grew up with older movies so maybe you're used to their way of doing things, I don't know, but that doesn't mean they were better.
Modern movies may abuse effects and quick cuts, I'll agree with you on that one, but older movies on the other hand would tend to be slow paced and to show way too much, as if they were afraid the audience wouldn't understand. Their pacing is often quite off as a result and that can be a drag sometimes. And this comes from someone who loves movies from all eras.
At the end of the day, even though there are masterpieces in every decade, I would still argue modern movies are better overall - and that makes sense since they benefit from a little over a century of experimentation from many great directors.
Desmond Llewellyn portrayed the gadget supplier, Q, through the entire franchise with the different Bonds, until The World is Not Enough in 1999.
True, but Desmond Llewellyn doesn't play Q in this film. He starts in From Russia with Love.
Q actually stands for Quartermaster, the department responsible for supplying all of the Double 0 agents with whatever equipment they need, not just gadgets.
I doubt that she'll make it past FRWL. The attention span necessary for these classic films is sorely lacking here.
"The World is Not Enough" is top three Bond title songs.

The Smirnoff brand started in 1864. It's now part of a British company.
It's so cute that she thinks the entire world is what she experiences. Whenever she watches a movie from even slightly before her time, she can't get over the clothes, the cars, the hair, the lingo, etc.
"Aggghhh ... Siamese vodka?!"
Funny thing about Smirnoff is that the creator of the brand was having difficulty selling it since at the time the popular way to make martinis were with gin. The creator contacted someone in production and got them to make Bond's drink a vodka martini using Smirnoff thus giving us the iconic vodka martini shaken not stirred cementing Smirnoff vodka in the minds of drinkers everywhere.
According to Bar Rescue, Bond was having a weaker Vodka Martini as it should have been stirred not shaken. Shaking with the ice weakens the drink.

The casino game Bond was playing when you see him is Baccarat. I play it myself. It's a one-on-one game where players use 2 or 3 cards to get a higher hand than the opponent. It's much more common in European casinos than American ones.
It's also known as Chemin de Fer in Europe and more commonly known in Asia by its variant called Lucky Nine. The object of the game is similar to Blackjack, except, instead of playing to reach 21 or below, you play to reach 9 or below it.
@@johnlloyddy7016 And the 10, Jack, Queen, & King are played as NOTHING but "0"'s. ACES's are counted as the NUMBER "ONE". Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.
I didn't really pay attention to the game in the film...I'll go back and look. Over the years I have been to Jamacia many, many times and baccarat was not a casino option, nor was chemin de fer. Instead they played Caribbean stud poker, which is just like regular stud poker but you play against the house. I only gambled occasionally and only at resorts.
You are indeed correct...and it is very accurately done.
@@johnlloyddy7016 chemin de fer and baccarat are actually quite different. Chemin de fer is played against the house, like black jack. Baccarat is played against other players. Also chemin de fer has quite a few more options for the gambler.
That electronic device near the start was a shortwave radio transmitter. Radios were enormous before modern microelectronics.
YES, as they only had TUBE receivers & Transmitters , they were power hogs.
but , could Easily be Repaired.
Heck, one of the future Bond movies, I swear to god features a PHOTOCOPIER as a super high-tech piece of technology
Trouble is when they attempt to show this old style equipment in a new movie, they dont have to wait for it to "warm up" a few minutes before it becomes functional.
You could tell a couple of the people using those radios were actual morse code senders, they were using the correct form.
One more thing, Ashleigh, that old shortwave radio transmitter/receiver could talk to Britain from Jamaica, or really almost anyplace else in the world - all without satellites or undersea telephone cables. All you needed was the transceiver set and an antenna (probably between two palm trees). This was high tech stuff!
This movie made history with the "You had your six," scene.
It was the first time the hero killed an unarmed enemy. At the time, it was an obvious "This story is way darker than you are used to."
It is up there with Neo dodging bullets, the first interracial kiss in Star Trek, "I don't give a damn" in Gone with the Wind... It changed cinema forever.
Its even more significant when you consider that this was made a decade before the 1970s when anti-heroes like Paul Kersey and Dirty Harry Callahan were a big thing in Hollywood films. Back then the good Cowboys and cops wore the white hats and never shot first, so Bond shooting an unarmed man was pretty wild for the hero.
Huh. I never even gave that any though. Thanks for pointing that out.
shicksh
@@darthroden if Ashleigh hasn't reacted to the Dirty Harry movies yet, she should - that'd be a lot of fun
part of the reason for this was hollywood had a code that they needed to follow haze code? It was to prevent the YOUTH to copy what they saw on the screen. So if you were a bad guy/girl you had to pay for your crime. Good guy had to the morally right.
27:32 this part, I could watch just this part over and over. Love it😂🤣😂 the way you said it 😂🤣😂 great, that's why I like your reactions.
As a kid growing up, Bond films widened my mind with locations all over the world. I was mesmerized by the accents (although very stereotypical) and exotic scenery.
It would probably be tough to describe how remarkable it was to see all of these exotic locations in the 60's and 70's. Worldwide shoots were very unusual in films back then.
I can’t wait until she meets P.Galore
Definitely. Bond also gets the girls who prefer girls. Not P.C. for 2024.
The theme is so iconic
Not so much this first film but over time getting the job of singing the Opening song became a big deal. Many of the songs became top of the music charts. The James Bond theme is almost as famous as the theme for Star Wars, Jaws & Indiana Jones.
President John Kennedy once said how much he really enjoyed the Ian Fleming novels on which the movie series is based.

Comedy Gold....
To be honest, you’re not wrong about this one. “Dr No” is definitely not peak Bond, and probably my least favourite of the Connery films. “From Russia with Love” is my favourite, but “Goldfinger” (the third Connery film”, is widely regarded as a classic and one of the best from the entire series.
The Bond films are all very much of their era.
Fun fact for the future: this was Quarrel’s second appearance in the books. As he’s killed off in this one, the eventual first appearance adaptation (Live And Let Die, which was the second book) was rewritten as the character “Quarrel, Jr”.
As for why this one first, and not the actual first book: the rights to that one were sold separately as a prospective TV series.
37:17 that painting is a inside joke. It is a famous Goya painting that was stolen in 1961, the joke is that Dr. No stole it (it was recovered IRL a few years later). Also, don't sweat whether you like it or not. Even fans of the franchise will agree that they're not all gems. It's more about being iconic than about being good films. The nice thing is that the order you watch doesn't really matter that much. If you do get to the point where you're about to give up, watch the 2006 Casino Royale. It's more modern filmmaking and you'll get some eye candy with it too.
And Ashleigh was close when she asked if it was Neapoleon. It is actually of Arthur Wellesly, the Duke of Wellington, the General who beat Napoleon at Waterloo.
And Casino Royale was the very first James Bond book that was written. The 1967 version was a comedy, starring David Niven, Oroson Welles and Woody Allen.
@@RedwoodTheElfIt should be noted...a very BAD comedy...lol

Gotta do The Name of the Rose, too!
Hey Ashleigh! Been following you awhile and just wanted to say I appreciate that your reactions are always such a good length. Nice meaty, 35/45 minute videos.
Dr. No was the only Bond movie to now have a "Bond song" but after this one, each had a song dedicated to the movie. Shirley Bassey one of the best. You'll hear when you get to Goldfinger.
The producers really liked Shirley Bassey, so she's the only artist to sing the themes for three, count 'em, three Bond films: Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever, and Moonraker.
I never realized just how much I needed Ashleigh's commentary on the James Bond films but now I'm totally living for this the next 25 or so weeks.
(From Russia with Love is *much* better.)
“How did you know what to do?” Giant sign saying Danger level.
Fun fact prolonged exposure to cold, wet conditions supresses your immune system and does in fact make you more succeptible to getting colds among other things.
I hope you keep this up. From Russia With Love and Thunderball are two of my all-time favorite "mindless" films!
The Bond films are really good with Sean Connery and Roger Moore, but after that they get a bit dull to me. I think they peaked with Goldeneye personally.
"... running your mouth without really assessing the situation.." Yeah. That's partly how Bond is. He's supremely confident. He's also good enough to back up that kind of ego. It's also partly his way of trying to disrupt /expose the bad guys.
Narratively, Bond also kind of *has* to be overconfident so he can screw up sometimes, otherwise the film would be really boring. It has to be a tense fight between him and the bad guys that tests him to his limit, otherwise he'd become a tedious Mary Sue character. You also can't show off all your fiendish villainous slow-death-traps and their fun set design if he doesn't always fall for them!
"I know Sean Connery from Indiana Jones"

I love how the iconic first intro of a "Bond Girl" and Ashleigh notices the conch shells, then a few moments later 007 running down the beach and she calls out his dong flapping in his shorts. I can honestly say that has never been pointed out to me before, while the other is a historic moment in time with thousands of articles about it- none talking about the economics of conch. This is why I watch 🤣
The thing about movies is pacing has changed so much. This was heart pounding action in the 1960s. Even an action movie from the '90s has a lot more slow parts than a modern action movie does. As a society we have the attention span of a goldfish I don't know if that's generations of filmmakers of trying make their movies more action-packed than the movies that came before, advances in special effects making the action easier to be a bigger part of the movies, or RUclips and streaming putting instant entertainment at our fingertips. But the older the movie the slower it feels and the harder it is to get to the action.
The moment from 20:36 "Who just walks around in heels and a robe? Not me, can't be me!". Let us dream Ashleigh, lol
Ashley being constantly down bad on young Connery is hilarious 😂
Times have certainly changed a lot since this film came out . . . judging by Ashleigh's behaviour, Women haven't changed that much! Apparently! 😍
Yes Dr No is the slowest out of all of them. Especially compared to today's movies. They definitely get better, faster and more fun and exciting.
James bond movies gradually get better and better. Took them a minute to figure out the right formula. They DO get good.
Glad you are reacting to these Ashleigh! James Bond truly is one of the greatest franchises of all time! I grew up on these films and own them all. The classic spy thriller stories with MI6 and the CIA are so interesting. Bond is definitely a badass and a ladies man. He’s that guy that fits the phrase “Every woman wants him and every man wants to be him.”
James Bond is an agent with M.I.-6 which is the British Secret Service OO7 is his designation, he has been given a license to kill enemies if necessary, and he is based on a series of books and stories by Ian Fleming
The “double-os” (agents whose code numbers begin with two zeros) are supposed to be the ones with a license to kill.

So so funny. You're so much fun to watch.
I’m a Gen Xer and the Bond I watched growing up was Roger Moore. I mean I watched the older movies too, but he had some amazing Bond movies under his belt along with some banging soundtracks.
If you're old enough (sadly, I am) and British, you probably have both a James Bond and a Doctor Who - Sir Sean Connery and the wonderful Jon Pertwee ("Reverse the polarity of the Neutron flow!" - If you know, you know!) are mine.
Ursula Andress is the first Bond girl. Haile Berry repeated coming out of the ocean in Pierce Brosnan's Bond Movie, Die Another Day. Ursula's voice was dubbed because studio didn't think the audience would understand her.
FUNNY, when she appeared on What's My Line 5 years after Dr. No (1967) I could understand everything she said and there was no dubbing then.
It’s also parodied in _Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me_ (1999) and _Casino Royale_ (2006). That’s why it’s important to watch the older films first.
DC also repeated coming out of the ocean in (I think) Casino Royale in a reverse-gender homage to Ursula Andress' entrance.
@@timamherst-clark2699 Yes, that’s what I was referring to, but without spoilers.

I'm so glad you're starting this franchise from the beginning, not a lot of people have and I think it's best to start here to really understand the character and get used to the clichés. It does get better as it goes along
I'd agree with others here:
"Dr. No" is slow-paced and rough hewn, "From Russia with love" is better paced but still hasn't the "Bond formula" down.
But if you can sit through them you reach "Goldfinger" which is... awesome.
It's weird stuff, megalomaniac plans, a hyper stylish Connery (the glen-check three piece suit alone!) and it's way faster paced - keep going till "Goldfinger"!

Ian Fleming who wrote the James Bond books, lived in Jamaica on an estate called Goldeneye, based James Bond on Christopher Lee, who during WW2 was a member of an organization that hunted Nazis
And, Christopher Lee was Ian Fleming’s cousin.
The only member of Fleming's family to appear in a film adaptation of his work.
And got the name, "James Bond" from the author of a book about Birds that was sitting on one of the shelves in his study. The surname of one of Bond's main villains was that of someone he was at school with, whose son would later become a well-known Cricket commentator on British TV and Radio.
Yes, Fleming's original name for the character was, get ready, Napoleon Solo. When he showed the manuscript of Casino Royale to a friend, the friend said, "Readers will never pay any attention to the plot, they'll only be able to notice that name. You need to give the character a name that lets them move right into the story." So Fleming looked around on his bookshelves, saw a copy of Birds of the West Indies, by Dr. James Bond, and said, "That's so boring, it's perfect." Later on, when NBC TV was inspired by the success of the Bond movies to create their own spy show, The Man from UNCLE, they actually went to Ian Fleming to come up with a name for the hero, and he was glad that he could sell them the Napoleon Solo name.
Incidentally, the real Dr. James Bond was delighted to have his name applied to a fictional superspy character. Wouldn't you be?
I remember that part in the LOTR making of where Christopher Lee instructed Peter Jackson about the souds a man who's been stabbed makes. Dude has seen (and probably done) some shit XD
Literary titbits:
In the novel Dr. No has made his fortune by mining guano. (Guano is droppings mined for their use as fertilizer. It can be either bat droppings, from caves, or bird droppings, from nesting islands.)
In the book No dies when, after a fight with Bond, he falls onto a pile of guano being loaded onto one of his ships by automatic conveyor and is buried in several tons of bird shit.
In the novel when Honey Ryder emerges from the sea she is naked except for the belt holding her diving knife. Of course, in 1962 this couldn't be filmed this way. Also, when she sees Bond she covers herself with her hands, but not with the usual gestures. Instead of one hand over her breasts and the other over her groin she has one hand over her groin and the other over the middle of her face. When she moves that hand Fleming describes her as having a particularly large nose that she didn't want Bond to see. This was another thing that wasn't about to be filmed on a romantic female lead in the early 60s.
Guano , also used in making Gunpowder as well. (potassium nitrate).

Bond movies are an adventure. Some are great and some are.......interesting. I love 'Dr. No' because it was the introduction, but I'm excited for 'From Russia With Love' and 'Goldfinger'. I definitely think doing ALL movies will be just too tough to do because there are some that would be quite a chore for you to get through (a lot are extremely campy/corny). My suggestion is do a few of each...
- From Russia With Love (Connery)
- Goldfinger (Connery)
- On His Majesty's Secret Service (Lazenby)
- The Spy Who Loved Me (Moore)
- The Living Daylights (Dalton)
- GoldenEye (Brosnan)
- Casino Royale (Craig)
- Skyfall (Craig)
I know there are a TON of movies to choose from and some will get mad that there's only 1 Moore or why no other Craig ones, but there's only a certain amount of movies she'll be able to fit in and I think many of these are the best from each actor. For instance, I thought Pierce Brosnan was a great Bond, but after GoldenEye the movies are fairly similar. They aren't terrible, but they don't feel overly unique either. Just like 'Quantum of Solace' wasn't overly good, but it did prolong the story from 'Casino Royale', but overall it isn't super important unless she's going to watch them all. That's just my 2 cents.
Well said, although I feel that Ashleigh wouldn't like From Russia With Love any more than Dr. No (as much as it pains me to say that). Goldfinger is a must-watch because it establishes the formula that all subsequent Bond films have used.
