That was BRILLIANT! I swear a lot if people who still to this day consider this an unofficial Bond due to the fact it was made by another studio would have accepted this great and vastly underrated film with open arms had the makers been able to use the theme song and bun barrel opening. It's one of the few Bond films that I personally never tire of due to Connery's brilliant performance as a realistically aging Bond, Klaus as a super slimy lead villain and Ms. Carrere's fabulous femme fatale Fatima Blush. Great one liners, great little action stunt set pieces (something SADLY missing from the modern Bond films), and a story that I've always loved. In my opinion the only thing missing was the theme song and other John Barry underlying music throughout. It had great babes, great locales, great escape situations, a very nice motorcycle chase, cool underwater sequences, and very charismatic leads. I loved it when it first came out and still love it to this day!
Never Say Never again, For Your eyes only, and The Spy Who Loved Me are some of my favorite songs from all the Bond themes. If your going to have naked women silhouettes on screen, I like female singers that have a fun sound to go with it. If your going for a masculine soundtrack then Bond should be the focus.
I really like this. I thinks it’s much better than the opening of the original… leaves you thinking has 007 being killed before the opening title pops up. Well done. 👍🏻
The guy looked like he could hardly do the moves. This is a remake of Thunderball which was actually Connery's best performance and his favorite as well.
@@johnnyskinwalker4095Wasn’t that From Russia With Love? Though I would agree with Thunderball being his best performance, it’s the last time he really gave it his all, until this film perhaps.
I know the producers of this film were under strict guidelines for what they can and cannot use....But just imagine if they had gone ahead and opened the film exactly like this. Lawsuits up the ass lmao!
That's true for sure. Our point here was not to suggest that NSNA have used music from the EON-produced films, but to show how much better the movie could have been if they had better original music more in the style of the Bond films instead of what they chose to use
Original! ... I like this opening scene and Never Say Never Again must be like this good job My friend 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 the only one minor is you forget put Rowan Atkinson in a cast title, if you do it will more kick ass 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Great edit! Love the John Barry music, although I think the sound effects are just a tad too loud. Generally, they're almost barely audible (sometimes, not even so) especially under the music and such. Everything's perfectly synced, but it's clear the sounds were all added in post. Wish the film could have opened like this! Although, as big of a Connery and Never Say Never Again fan that I am, I'm fond of the original. Great what if fan edit! :D
Haha. Revenge since Ian Fleming and EON never gave credit to Kevin Mcglory his cowriting credit. They tried for years to shut him out. The singer is Herb Alpert's wife. She was in Brasil 66.
In the version for the ending credits, Herb Alpert does a trumpet solo in the end of the song. Herb, with the Tijuana Brass, also did the theme to the non-EON version of "Casino Royale" and is rumored to be playing the trumpet for Louis Armstrong in the song, "We Have All The Time In The World" for "On Her Majesty's Secret Service".
Before seeing this, I liked the original opening as I though it was different and cool, but now I see that having a pop song over the action means the scene is just doing too much and you have to make a conscious effort to ignore one or the other. This, though, is incredible! There's so much tension, which the original never had. But I'm dying to know: how did you get the sound effects on there? Is this an original print without the music?
Thanks, glad this gave you a new perspective on opening you already liked. If you read caption you'll see I can't and don't take credit for most of this, including sound effects, which I agree are done amazingly well by RUclipsr PSPegasus. All I did was replace the Lani Hall song over titles and insert her credits.
Ya never really know but looks like the brainwashed gal in this scene probably is physically strong 💪 enough/physically tough 😤 enough of a fighter 2 survive/withstand being hit in the back torso/chest torso/on the sides torso by more than 8 pistol rounds (bullets) from Bond's Walther P5 regardless of it's Pistol Caliber/Cartridge (9×21mm IMI), more than 8 7.65mm pistol rounds (bullets), more than 8 8mm Nambu pistol rounds (bullets), more than 6 .44 Magnum pistol rounds (bullets), more than 10 9x19mm pistol rounds (bullets), more than 30 .45 ACP pistol rounds (bullets), more than 20 7.62×39mm rifle rounds (bullets), more than 10 .303 rifle rounds (bullets), more than 15 .44 Rimfire (RF) rifle rounds (bullets) & more than 5 7.92x57mm Mauser rifle rounds (bullets) without bulletproof/bullet resistant armor vest right to the point in this scene as Bond's going 2 shoot her (The Brainwash/Turned Gal) in the chest with the 9x19mm Submachine Gun she without a bulletproof/bullet resistant armor vest cackles at him like a hyena where she's in a way like saying you'll never have enough bullets 2 kill me Mister Bond/I'm far 2 strong💪/tough 😤 4 your Submachine Gun's 9x19mm bullets no matter how many/much of them ya empty in2 my chest Mister Bond he shoots her in the chest multiple/several times with that same 9x19mm Submachine Gun & she continues cackling after/when getting hit by every round/more than every round hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Lani, you won my heart with this song, not only “Brasil ‘66”, you did it there too.

As a huge James Bond fan, I've seen all of the movies countless times. That's the way the movie should have opened. Brilliant!
Damn, this is how the movie SHOULD have opened. Nice work!
this is the way it should have been 💯% either this or Phyllis Hyman opening and of course this as the closing song too.
Never Say Never again, For Your eyes only, and The Spy Who Loved Me are some of my favorite songs from all the Bond themes. If your going to have naked women silhouettes on screen, I like female singers that have a fun sound to go with it. If your going for a masculine soundtrack then Bond should be the focus.
Great re-edit - this is what we needed to say back then!
Thanks!
I really like this. I thinks it’s much better than the opening of the original… leaves you thinking has 007 being killed before the opening title pops up. Well done. 👍🏻
I love this version. I really like Lani Halls rendition of this theme!
100 times better! I wanted to do this myself. Would LOVE a copy of the movie without the music so I could edit in some John Barry magic. Well done!
Absolutely neat! Way better edition than the original one
NSNA remains my favorite Bond film. This was Sean Connery's best Bond performance.
Connery looked dynamite
The guy looked like he could hardly do the moves. This is a remake of Thunderball which was actually Connery's best performance and his favorite as well.

Especially with the reused credits for thunderball :D
It could be done in "official" Bond style now as EON Productions has ownership of NSNA.
