Not the first true sequel
May 6 2007, 2:30 PM EDT "Diamonds are Forever" is a true sequel, it starts with Bond killing Blofeld (an double) in revenge for Blofeld killing his wife at the end of "On Her Majesty's Secret Service". 6 out of 16 found this valuable. Do you? |

May 6 2007, 3:50 PM EDT Interesting - I wonder if it feels less sequel like as the Bonds were switched (Lazenby to Connery) 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

Aug 10 2007, 1:25 AM EDT From Russia With Love was also a sequel, continuing from where Dr. No left off with the return of Sylvia Trench and SPECTRE avenging the death of Dr. No. Do you find this valuable? |

RE: Not the first true sequel
Feb 21 2008, 7:31 PM EST Puh-leeze. There's a difference between working a sequel-like element or two into a Bond film, and relentlessly intertwining an installment with the one that came before. So a little perspective is in order. "For Your Eyes Only" could be called a sequel because of the bald nameless Blofeld-like construct at the beginning. And of course because of Jaws, "Moonraker" could be considered a sequel of "The Spy Who Loved Me." A character called "Quarrel Jr." is positioned prominently in "Live and Let Die," ostensibly the son of the unfortunate who got burned to a crisp in "Dr. No" (in the books this was the same person, since LALD came first). Are all these really sequels? An answer could be provided in the affirmative on a purely technical basis. But not on an honest one. Do you find this valuable? |
