THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH | Bond puts an end to Renard’s plans

"She’s waiting for you…” Bond puts an end to Renard’s plans in THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH (1999) by skewering him with a plutonium rod. To give the appearance of the submarine sinking, it was flooded by lowering the whole set slowly into the water tank at Pinewood.

@@Agent1W Yeah but I think either way he was just done with being alive.

[@Thicc_Cheese_Dip]

The novel actually states that this is Renard's final moments, as the bullet in his head is almost at his central cortex; hence why he says "I'm already dead".

[@GranTruismo4head]

Well you do have to remember he did get a bullet in his head by 009 a few days after Elektra escaped from Renard and the other kidnappers, and the bullet was in his head and still was when he died, either way he was gonna die somehow. He sort of does finally resign to the fact she’s dead and is waiting for him wherever she is. At least his true last one liner “Welcome To My Nuclear Family” felt almost like a pun but also true since he was going to irradiate all of the Bosporus as well as destroy Istanbul as one final Renard “The Anarchist” sort of ordeal.

I like that for a few seconds you see that Renard knows its all over and there's a slight smile. He doesn't care by that point. I would have liked to have seen them do the alternate ending where Elektra survived and Bond visits her in the institiution.

[@UltimaKeyMaster]

I dunno, not sure I like the idea of that ending. The movie itself seems to say it was never Stockholm Syndrome, that Elektra took control of her situation and seduced Renard, something that's clearly present here. It'd be weird to put her in a place like that as if she still suffers from that like she didn't 100% choose to be a villain. It would have come purely out of left field with how much she controls through the entire movie.

That's why I said "Bond Actors." Goldeneye and Casino Royale are great films. But you have to agree that the Brosnan and Craig are a bit rough around the edges. Craig acts meaner and has a dark stare (which he got rid of in subsequent films). Broz seems a little stiff in some scenes. Compare the scene when M is talking to Bond in her office from Golden eye and the deleted scenes of M's office in The World is Not Enough. You can tell the Broz knows what he is doing now.

[@actioncom2748]

@@scottknode898 You're right as well. While we each have different tastes (I like Skyfall more than Casino Royale), the movies that end up in the public Consciousness usually happen to be the third film.

[@HoustonSoto]

It frustrates me when conversations about great Bond villains arise, there’s a snobbiness about how Renard is a lesser villain because it turns out he’s carrying out Elektra’s plans. First of all - Red Grant, Emilio Largo, Dr. No were all followers of Blofeld. I think they all still have their values and are some of the more iconic baddies. A lot of the time, villains working towards a ruthless goal for a grander purpose makes for a more compelling villain. And secondly, he’s one of the only villains, if not THE only villain whose motivation was actually love, no matter how twisted that is, it adds a layer to him.

It has to be carefully inserted into the reactor because the radioactive compounds activate once inside it, I always assumed if Renard inserted it too quickly it would cause a nuclear explosion which wasn't his plan, only to contaminate the bosphorus with radiation.
