Blofeld

Blofeld
Direct attempted methods of killing Bond:
  • Poisoning. (YOLT)
  • Sending countless numbers of people out to kill him. (All movies except Goldfinger)
  • Shooting. (YOLT, OHMSS)
  • Grenades. (OHMSS)
  • Fisticuffs, aboard a speeding bob-sled. (OHMSS)
  • Stabbing. (DAF)
  • Avalanche. (OHMSS)

How he is dispatched:
  • Possibly killed at the end of Diamonds Are Forever, when Bond crashes the crane that is launching Blofeld's escape submersible.
  • Also possibly killed by Bond at the beginning of For Your Eyes Only when a mysterious figure in a wheelchair stroking a white cat attempts to murder Bond personally. Blofeld could possibly have met his end when he fell into a smokestack there.

Evil scheme:
  • Generally, world domination and the death of James Bond.
  • Dr. No:
    • Uses Agent Dr. No to shoot down American missiles as a threat for ransom.
  • Thunderball:
    • Employs Emilio Largo to hijack and crash-land a British Vulcan Bomber into the ocean in order to steal it's two nuclear warheads with the intent of extorting diamonds out of the U.S. and British governments.
  • You Only Live Twice:
    • Cause World War Three by interfering with the American-Russian Space Race through the hijacking of 2 of their experimental manned spacecraft.
  • On Her Majesty's Secret Service:
    • Uses an extortion plot to earn himself a complete pardon and the title of Count de Bleauchamp. If his terms are not met, he plans to release 10 women carrying a highly contagious infertility virus, "Virus Omega", into the world.


How plans were foiled:
  • Dr. No:
    • Bond sabotages the radiation device, destroying the Crab Key facility and killing Dr. No in the process.
  • From Russia With Love:
    • Bond acquires the LEKTOR, killing Grant, Klebb, and all agents trying to stop him.
  • Thunderball:
    • Bond discovers the atomic bombs, stops Largo and destroys the Disco Volante before it reaches it's target.
  • You Only Live Twice:
    • Bond alerts the Japanese Secret Service and (less directly) the CIA and KGB of Blofeld's plan.
  • On Her Majesty's Secret Service:
    • Bond blows up the Piz Gloria, Blofeld's headquarters and cover with the assistance of Draco's forces.
  • Diamonds Are Forever:
    • Bond signals Willard Whyte, Felix Leiter, and marines to attack the rig via helicopters, blowing it up, then uses Blofeld'd bathosub, with Blofeld in it to destroy the satellite command room, saving Washington D.C. from destruction.
    Z
  • Bond finds the wire allowing Blofeld to control the haywire helicopter Bond's in which mucks up Blofeld's controls. Bond then picks up Blofeld in his wheelchair with the helicopter and drops him down a chimney stack.

    Defining dialogue:
    • "Siamese fighting fish, fascinating creatures. Brave but, on the whole, stupid. Yes, they're stupid. Except for the occasional one, such as we have here, who lets the other two fight. While he waits. Waits until the survivor is so exhausted that he cannot defend himself, and then like SPECTRE... he strikes!" (From Russia With Love).
