Next time there’s a Bond convention, I’m definitely going to cosplay as an Angry Crab-Fisherman Protestor, placard and all.

[@dafyddem]

Gotta love Roger. Even after dropping an F-Bomb and making everyone laugh, he's still a gentleman and letting the woman go in the lift first :)

[@actioncom2748]

5:52 - "Well, life is short. I mean *BEEP* him." That should be a meme.

[@BenCol]

It’s a shame they cut Roger’s line. I feel “Well, life is short. I mean f**k him, y’know, who needs him?” could’ve gone down as an enduring Bond catchphrase, up there with “Bond, James Bond” and “Shaken, not Stirred.” Fun Fact: Timothy Dalton drops an F-Bomb in ‘The Living Daylights’ when Kara’s trying to drive the car onto the plane. You can’t hear him over the plane engines, but you can read his lips.

[@charlesmarsh316]

Oh, that's right! I forgot about Dalton's silent "F Bomb"! Mrs. Bell would have approved.

[@davidjames579]

That's right, anyone who is deaf and under 15 wasn't allowed in to see The Living Daylights.

[@desotowright]

Dalton’s Bond though. Rolling his eyes and saying “Fucking hell.” 🤣

[@justisolated5621]

I thought Moore said, "Well life is short, then you f*** it, you know, who needs it?"

[@johnsplayworld2402]

The crew should've just instead make roger moore dub in his lines to " forget him" in the recording stage

[@seankunau1289]

Though on the whole it has less gags than other entries, AVTAK is definitely the most unintentionally funny. Stacy managing to get snuck up on by a Zeppelin gets me every time 😂

[@jamesatkinsonja]

I find it odd how people say 'view is more serious' when for me there is way too much daft humor in it [the 'fly in his soup', the 'keystone cop's chase scene' the henchmen in packing crates bit etc.].

[@allenhilburn8686]

I also found your comments on the "Save the Crabs" signs amusing. One of the things I remember most about my first trip to San Francisco was all the crab shops along the waterfront and hordes of Japanese tourist eating them on the sidewalk where there was a railing with a counter top so you had a place to put the paper plates the crab was served on. Those signs fit right in. 🍸

[@calvindyson]

I guess it makes sense that they would protest so passionately about the crabs... It’s just such a strange addition to a Bond film but I do love that someone in the production design team had to construct those signs and someone OK’d those things 😂

[@awesomepig99w]

Calvin Dyson omg it’s really you

[@michaelstocklin9080]

@@calvindyson Crab is the local, um fish, and they actually do protest in real life, which i'm sure was fun for the British film crew :). Location of that scene is approximately here, goo.gl/maps/6r6fssZUe6TVnNni8 the refinery is hard to miss in real life

[@runlarryrun77]

Love how Tanya doesn't even blink when Roger says "f*ck him, who needs him", bless her x

[@jasonackerman3303]

I always loved how John Glen gave the dates of when these scenes were shot.

[@hannah6034]

that cracked me up too. it's like "august 10th? erm.. ok." but that kind of organised thinking suits a directors brain

[@allenhilburn8686]

That first one was funny, but I agree, more Pink Panther than James Bond. 😊

[@davidjames579]

He does look like Peter Sellers as well, although not bothering to do a French accent. As soon as i saw those fake eyebrows, I felt something was going to happen to them.

[@KlausSgroi]

But then again, most Moore films were indeed akin to Pink Panther. No wonder he actually got to play Inspector Clouseau.

[@hannah6034]

@@KlausSgroior to play *with* britt ekland...(sorry.)

[@ricardocantoral7672]

This is what I noticed about Glen, he is fascinated by the technical side of filmmaking. Whenever he recalls a shoot, he never talks about how he works with actors or filmmaking as an art.

[@davidjames579]

He started as a clapper boy and worked up through the technical ranks, and then spent years doing 2nd unit on stunt scenes, so that's probably why.

[@ricardocantoral7672]

@@davidjames579 One must work up the ranks. You couldn't become a director any other way back in his day.

[@runlarryrun77]

@@ricardocantoral7672 That's not true. There were plenty who started by making independant shorts after studying film at university, or those who switched from in front of the camera to behind after successful acting careers.

[@CobyMcGhie]

As a kid, I always hated A View To A Kill for some reason. But now I find it underrated mostly because of the dark moments we normally only see in the Craig movies

[@jamesatkinsonja]

There are dark moments, but also a really OTT Nazi straight out of Allo Allo...

[@BenCol]

Deleted Scene #2 with Stacey and her boss felt like a stage play. The shouty acting, the fumbles, the framing, the set; all that’s left is an unenthusiastic round of applause when the scene ends.

[@calvindyson]

I know, right? It’s such a weird scene. Love that Glen knew he wasn’t even going to use it. Maybe it was a “just in case” kinda thing that they needed to get it in the can?

[@jamesatkinsonja]

I got the impression John Glen was not a big Tanya Roberts fan [Like Lynn Holly Johnston she was Cubby's idea] which shows his lack of interest in the scene [the boss' acting is pretty bad here too]. In fairness the phone would be a Foley add on later.

[@jonathancampbell5231]

As Glen says, he didn't do any close up shots, and that's where the "stage play" feel comes in since it's all from one angle. The main problem is that is a bunch of exposition about Zorins' evil business that the audience already kind of knows about anyway.

[@BenCol]

Jonathan Campbell I suppose it helps show the city officials are in the pocket of Zorin (showing the extent of his power) but you get that impression even without this scene.

[@davidjames579]

@@jamesatkinsonja The phone wouldn't actually need a foley as Howe was picking it up to ask his assistant to put him through to Personnel (to formally sack Stacy).

[@WhiteJarrah]

I probably would have kept the first scene up until the From Russia With Love reference. Feel sorry for the guy playing the police officer. Imagine getting cast in a Bond film only to discover your scene was cut.

[@jamesatkinsonja]

He probably told all his friends and family about it too...[to be fair I would!]

[@jonathancampbell5231]

I think M was upset that Bond was so cavalier with the gadgets in front of the French police. He's probably annoyed enough that he had to go all the way to Paris to get him out of jail in the first place. Also, I have to wonder if Mike Myers learned of this scene somehow, since Austin Powers has one so similar.

[@KnightOwl1881]

I was wondering myself if that inspired the "Personal Items" Austin Powers scene...

[@jjrbarnett]

I was thinking Bond is supposed to return his gadgets after each mission. Government property.

[@npd9758]

M had to pay hefty sum to bail him out

[@hannah6034]

I think it was his casual allusion to shagging around on the job in the way he emphasises the "with love" with that knowing look...

[@fatheadbrown8666]

A view to a kill has always been a movie I’ve enjoyed. Weirdly enough it’s in my top 5 bond movies. Yeah Moore’s age is showing and yes the stunt doubles are obvious but the doubles were always a bit obvious to me anyway. The “F*ck him” scene is the funniest deleted scene ever

[@garyreid6165]

I saw A View To A Kill in the theater when it came out. It was my second one that I had seen in the theater. The first was Never Say Never Again in the drive-in during my senior year in high school. AVTAK was probably the silliest film since Octopussy. But I have to admit that it was also a fun film to watch if you don’t expect much. It did have one of the scariest Bond aide death scenes. The scene where Mayday kills Tibbetts from the backseat of the Rolls Royce was memorable. I have read that Tanya Roberts and Roger Moore didn’t exactly get along and the love scene with Grace Jones scared Roger Moore.

[@miesvaillanykyisyytta3252]

I read some interview a LONG time ago where Moore said it felt unnatural to act alongside Roberts because of their age difference.

[@garyreid6165]

Tanya Roberts told her story on a talk show she said that Roger Moore sort of didn’t really speak to her that much during filming. Even at promotional gatherings for AVTAK. Roger Moore once told his wife about the love scenes in the Bond films. He asked his wife if he had her permission. She told him, “You can do it, but you better not enjoy it.”

[@sebastianfitzptraick7395]

John Glen is such a nice dude, always enjoys talking about working on his films. Calvin, do Licence To Kill next please!

[@Thatguy55595]

Remember when you reviewed this one like 7-8 years ago lol. Roger Moore is the best Bond and then Pierce

[@BigMack1959]

"Zorin Kills Crabs" sounds like a fine advertising slogan for a pubic lice lotion

[@jimcrowley3424]

As a San Francisco native the protest scene makes a lot of sense we have a big crab market and industry in SF never seen a protest like this one but I could see it happening haha

[@CallumCraystonGamingAndRacing]

[@LadiesWhoBond]

Been loving these deleted scene videos you’ve been doing Calvin! Loved your commentary about the crabs 🦀 I find it ironic that one of the protestors has a sign that says “oil kills crabs” and Roger is wearing a Chevron Corporation (an energy corporation engaged in oil, natural gas, geothermal energy, etc.). A bit hypocritical there. 🤣

[@alexmckinley79]

Love the Goldeneye 64 music!

[@alexmckinley79]

I think John Glen's comment about protesting being boring was not to devalue the importance of protest but to say that it doesn't really help to tell a story in a creative way. If you just have a message on a placard or in a chant, it doesn't allow the viewer to reach that conclusion organically.

[@davidjames579]

I think it's also because protest scenes in films never seem to work, they always look like a bunch of extras trying to look passionate,.

I guess cutting the protesters' scene out meant that the crabs were saved.

[@ZikovanDijk]

"I'll will wait until dark" - maybe that is a nodd to a movie directed by Bond director Terence Young?

[@servalan65]

You look so young with your hair!! Anyway, good to see these deleted scenes, especially Roger Moore's expletive! Have to ask, is Roger Moore's autobiography worth reading? Stupid question, but I've not had the chance yet.

[@calvindyson]

Thanks! I had it cut finally this week and with it I’ve added years back on my appearance haha 😂 I’d definitely say Roger’s biography is worth it for fans. He has some great anecdotes in there. He has a few books out there. My Word Is My Bond was the first I read and the most like a typical autobiography I’d say.

[@lifeschool]

I think it would have been good to include just a few seconds of these clips, as it would have helped the story. For one thing, establishing Zorin in the car and closing the car boot on a load of cans of petrol would explain why city hall seems to spontaneously combust. Although they couldnt have made the 'whack' any more hammy. "Yeah, I saw some guys with red gas cans - with Flammable on the side, and a skull and crossbones. I recognised the world famous millionaire megalomaniac Max Zorin, a black woman with hair on one side of her head, and an old guy who kept shouting Max, MAX!"

[@fabianrichardbartl]

[@edwin3928ohd]

I think the protest boats scene could have been better if it were a bit darker. (This is how I would direct a bond movie) - A guard is told by zorin to go out and scare the protestors away without drawing too much attention to himself, the guard instead came out and popped off some shots at them causing them to scatter and leave, smiling as he does it. The guard comes back up to the building thinking he did a good deed for zorin, but instead gets capped point blank range for acting out of order and shortly thereafter fed to the crabs.

Right they cut these all out of the film, although I would have liked the police scene kept just for the continuity with regards to From Russia With Love (But what is Bond doing keeping Grant's watch as a momento!?! No wonder M is a bit annoyed). As for the petrol scene, where you see them walk to City Hall with those cans. Somewhat creepy and unnerving about that shot
