I'm watching On Her Majesty's Secret Service on Encore west. It's the bond movie containing George Lazenby's singular performance as James Bond. He seems like a decent actor, and even good in a spy film, but he's no Bond. He's a little too goofy and not suave enough to fit into my definition of what a Bond should be. Regardless, this is very well done film and now one of my favorite Bonds.

Also, it's definitely a major influence for the Austin Powers movies. If you haven't seen it, just watch it.

One of my favorites. You can't beat a good, death-defying bobsledding sequence. Plus, you get to see Bond get married.

OHMSS is actually my favorite James Bond movie. I realize that he doesn't exactly fit into the mold of what most people think JB should be, but I think that that's what I like most about it.
