57 Thoughts Mandi Kaye Had Whilst Watching Dr No

  1. This isn’t my first James Bond, but it IS my first Sean Connery James Bond.
  2. Was there a tv show before this? Or did it start with the movies?
  3. Can’t say I expected technicolor dancing silhouettes in the intro of a James Bond movie.
  4. Three Blind Mice is a bit on the nose here, don’t you think?
  5. Oh, well I guess not.
  6. Well damn, they just killed the woman, too! That was unexpected.
  7. I would never have recognized him as Sean Connery.
  8. He also doesn’t have the iconic Connery accent I expect.
  9. I hear it sometimes, but it’s definitely not what it is now!
  10. Are they making fun of him for having a “lady’s” gun?
  11. “If you’re a double-0, it means you’re licensed to kill, not be killed.”
  12. Ah, of course – the shot is framed around her bare legs. Though they are some really nice legs.
  13. Well, how can he get out if you just told him to put both hands on the wheel?
  14. The fight choreography is amazing. Bond basically does nothing, but the other guy is out of breath and injured and flung all over the place.
  15. LOL – “Make sure he doesn’t get away.”
  16. Oh, boo. “Mixed like you said, sir. Not stirred.” When did it become the “shaken, not stirred” phrase that we know now?
  17. “I hope he cooks better than he fights.”
  18. Photographer lady was also at the airport.
  19. 35 minutes in, and someone finally says the name “Dr. No”.
  20. He hesitated before he said, “No, of course not.” I don’t trust this Professor Dent fellow.
  21. Oh, dear. It’s the spider Matthew warned me about.
  22. I think I’m about to be very much not okay.
  23. LOL – it’s so clear that the spider wasn’t actually on him, but crawling on a screen.
  24. Thank god it didn’t jump.
  25. Did… did he just smell her towel?
  26. That’s one way to keep him there for a few hours.
  27. Women don’t just paint their nails like that in the middle of doing things.
  28. Whoa, she spit in his face. That’s harsh.
  29. It’s that mango song again.
  30. Wait, why kill him before he could answer your questions?
  31. This movie moves incredibly slow.
  32. Oh, they mussed his hair! That’s an unexpected detail.
  33. If the shells are so valuable, why did she leave two of them lying there on the beach?
  34. We’ve heard about that dragon twice now. I’m curious to find out what it really is.
  35. That red shirt was probably not the best choice…
  36. OMG that DANGER sign is amazing!
  37. Did she just tell us that she got raped? And then killed him with a black widow spider?
  38. Oh, yeah. That red shirt got Quarrel killed.
  39. “Sorry we ain’t got any flowers.”? What does that mean?
  40. Oh ho! Bond finally got clubbed in the head!
  41. Well that’s the most half-assed job of scrubbing down I’ve ever seen.
  42. Was Miss Taro supposed to be Chinese?
  43. Bond should have known better than to drink or eat anything. I thought he was smarter than that.
  44. That was a weird scene. Just looking at him sleep?
  45. What a great living space – but man, I’d need some natural light!
  46. Dr. No is the first one to say “shaken, not stirred.”
  47. “Does the toppling of American missiles really compensate for having no hands?” HA!
  48. How fortuitous that the pipe he’s escaping through has little ledges for his feet.
  49. Where did all of the water go? That vent came out in the decontamination room…
  50. Did I miss what’s happening on the island? What Dr. No’s plan is?
  51. Those fake hands can’t save you now!
  52. You should probably get out of there Mr. Bond.
  53. That’s a hell of a way to kill someone. Chain them to the floor with water rising. A bit dark!
  54. What happened to Honey’s pants?
  55. Are we supposed to assume the guards raped her?
  56. Wait, now they’re going to have sex? After she was violated?
  57. OH THANK YOU MISTER BOND FOR SAVING ME. HOWEVER CAN I REPAY YOU?
