This scene is definitely one of the reasons this movie is held in such high regard among the Bond films. Starts with a motorcycle with a torpedo sidecar. Then Jaws comes off a side street in a car. Once Bond has dispatched them, then suddenly there’s Caroline Munro in the chopper (that scene where the chopper comes up alongside Bond is just goosebumps every time). And apparently Munro is one hell of a pilot to pull off some of those turns (and get in front of Bond!) Then juuuust when you think Bond’s gonna pull some tricky car move or pull into a tunnel, it’s “Can you swim?” Car turns into a freakin’ submarine and takes out the chopper only to THEN get attacked by frogmen AND a small submersible of their own. I love the way Anya hits the depth charge button at the end too. The scene definitely earned the fish gag at the end of an 8 minute rollercoaster.

It’s a tour de force, in my favorite Bond film. but Stromberg must be the least efficient Bond villain. 😂 he wastes a Kawasaki, a sidecar missile drone, an Alfa Romeo, a Jet Ranger, 5 henchmen, 2 frogmen, a submersible, and a ridiculously hot fEmme fatale in his pursuit. 😅 then again, Jaws is worth every penny as a henchman. 😁

Having watched a few old Bond films recently I fully agree. Some scenes looks pretty silly, especially with Roger Moore because he wasn't a good actor in fight scenes, but they all look alot more real and authentic compared to modern ones (because they are). They relied on real footage and clever usage of editing to obtain these amazing scenes. Modern ones with CGI somehow looks way less real and convincing. Something about the old, worse camera quality actually makes it look better in a way. It's hard to describe but the old movies has a different feel to them.

Well said and absolutely agree. He was the best. His versatility was second to none. Today its all blood, guts and doom to pull the ticket sales in. The latest bond movies were hideous to say the least. Far to much time spent on anger with no realistic plots or characters, The music as well compared to the old ones was not as good. Latest bond had potential but lost the plot with exasperated scenes of blood and gore, Which for me totally detracted from all that 007 films are capable of. Moore was a classic example of a secret agent using his skill and cunning instead of just bullets and bullshit.

I think people tend to look back on past Bond eras with rose-tinted glasses (myself included). Yes this clip is great and stands the test of time very well, but even Roger's era was all-often criticised by many at the time for going too far into parody. This sort of approach wouldn't work as well with modern audiences. It's too dated and "of its time". They tried it to a degree with Spectre and it felt hoakey. Craig's films have a lot of good in them though. I grew up with the Brosnan films but its fair to say that they haven't aged particularly well and Craig's films are something of an improvement in terms of acting and production.

Also, some people don't give him credit as a ruthless Bond too. Each Bond kills villains, but in this, he just frankly shoots Strohmberg assassin style after he dodges the harpoon. There was the guy in the car he kicked off the ledge in For Your Eyes Only, and in Moonraker, he sent Drax out into space to die a horrible death.

Saw this as a small kid with my cousin and our Grandad. We both went crazy for that car and begged him for a model of it. We both got the Corgi one with the little missiles and fins. Spent many happy hours in the bath recreating this scene :) the movie is still one of my faves.Sean Connery and Roger Moore still have it and they're not even here anymore :( Daniel Who?

The Lotus Esprit from The Spy Who Loved Me has gone down in history as one of the best Bond cars ever put to film. It is just as iconic as the Aston Martin DB5 from Goldfinger. And it’s ability to submerge underwater and turn itself into a freaking submarine has got to be the coolest feature in a Bond car ever. Also, gotta love that engine sound. Such a shame that the Lotus Esprit doesn’t get enough of the love that it so desperately deserves.

For those who were not there at its release, its hard to describe just how big this film was! This underwater car scene was mind-blowing and I like millions of other kids couldn't wait to get my hands on the toy car!! Nowadays you get CGI effects films a dime a dozen, but when this came out there were VERY few films that had the money or the talent to pull off practical spectaculars like this. The creativity behind this was epic, long below we knew what BASE was, you had one of the first filmed ski BASE jumps, which believe me at the time when nobody knew it was even possible to parachute from a cliff was again totally mind blowing! This era of Bond was without doubt the most creative and spectacular, few Bond-type films if any have matched it!

The best James Bond car of the installment! Still, i could never really figure out how it was possible to convert the Lotus Esprit into a mini-submarine, especially the wheels turning inside, panels closing and metallic fins popping out of the car body until it was revealed that several modified Lotus Esprit car chassis were used to create this impression. That is: there was one car designed for the road chase and various driving stunts and another submarine version for navigating under water with all the aquatic chases including the uninvited helicopter attacks. Several film angle shoots on various parts of the vehicle during the transformation from the sports car to the mini-submarine like the inverted wheels and metallic fin movements were taken from 'transition' chassis. Truly ingenuous and one of the boiler plates of Roger Moore's best performance as agent 007. Truly memorable and a pleasure to watch some 47 years later, even if the YT version is shortened somewhat from the original film. One acting flaw that is noted. The Russian female agent acted very surprised when Bond decided to escape the helicopter attacks by driving the amphibious car into the sea. She knew the car had these features as she revealed to have stolen the blueprint some while ago. Hence, she shouldn't have been surprised by Bond's decision of diving under water.
