A Bond and Blofeld question
This may have come up before. But, Bond and Bloefeld meet in You Only Live Twice. In the next movie. On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Blofeld doesnt recognize bond right away. Obviously that could be because George Lazenby is playing bond, so it takes Blofeld longer to recognize him. (pre-emptive strike against that joke) So is it just one of those things we are supposed to let go of, or am I missing something.

But then again, should Felix Leiter recognize James since he's also being played by 6 diiferent actors in 7 films?
And why didn't James recognize Octopussy since she is the dead girlfriend of Scaramanga?
This brings me to this question : Does someone here know how Q must have felt about all the others going away and him being left behind, coming back regularly in every damn movie?
Poor Q!

Hey, Fielding Mellish. Thanks for the info. That explains it completely. I guess they just took
a "no big deal" attitude about it when they Made OHMSS, which is fine by me. Just something
that nagged me a bit. I am up to Golden Gun now with my little Marathon. Hope I can get them all in before
the 22nd.
Thanks again.

I read on a Bond site way back that there was supposed to be a scene in OHMSS that shows Bond going through plastic surgery. Also, in YOLT Bond is made up to look Japanese, while in OHMSS he clearly is not.

SMERSH was a real-life organization. The movie producers don't want to decrease their market size by offending hard-line Russian communists.
Rogue generals and terrorists of independant means are much easier to sell to international markets.

what the series needs
I think the series, in order to be setting new standards of adventure again, should do something more along the line of Clive Cussler's books (Atlantis Found is what comes to mind. Of course, it's escapism...
