Yep. I don't get why his Bond films were criticized for "lack of humor." I think people still had the image of Roger Moore's Bond in their head. I think this scene is a great example of how Bond humor should be: subtle. It's not really in your face, but just present enough to get an occasional laugh. Take a look at Daniel Craig. His films are a good example of subtle Bond humor. In Casino Royale, when the bartender asks, "Shaken or stirred," Bond says, "Do I look like I give a damn?" That's a pretty clever line that gets a good laugh from the viewer while also subverting expectations.
I know you're probably trolling, but Dalton's Bond is widely acknowledged to be the most true to the books. He was reading Fleming on set. His dark ruthless Bond was ahead of its time, and certainly set the tone for Craig's "blunt instrument" portrayal.
Dalton was a great Bond: dark, sinister and even cold brooding. He played Bond the way he was portrayed in the books as created by Ian Fleming He had read them when he was younger and re-read then again upon getting the role. Dalton was approached twice in career to play the role but he turned them down in the slte 1960s as he was too young at the time (in his 20s and he thought it was suicide take over from Sean Connery) and again in the late 1970s to early 1980s when it was uncertain if Roger Moore would come back after his initial four film contract was done as he thought he was getting old hot the role (Dalton turned them down again as he was not a fan of how the Moore Bond films had become with the light hearted, silly camp tone). He almost could not do it again when asked in 1986 when he was still filming a movie Brenda Starr after Pierce Brosnan had to bow out from taking the part. Film makers agreed to delay the next Bond film production by a few weeks until Dalton was available. Film makers agreed it was time to change the series up and go for a dark serious tone and get back to how the earlier films were in the series as Dalton himself wanted to do. Moore's long era of light hearted camp ran its course.
Knowing Q, he probably would have developed a gadget to muffle the snore 😅
Dalton was an excelent Bond
Carey Lowell ❤️
❤❤❤Bon nuiJames
Knowing Q, he has a gadget that cancels out the sound.
Exploding ear plugs maybe?

Iconic sequence with Q who left his laboratory to help 007
And Moneypenny Number 2 who orchestrated this mini-rebellion! Love him in this!
My favorite was Roger Moore
That ain't bond! Connery is!
They’re all bond
That film was really poor
The worst Bond ever
you take that back Boi 😮
I'm inclined to agree (film-wise) - though this is a nice little moment from it.
No he is a starman
