      They also clearly dont understand perspective... which is really weird. They were simulating his legs moving right in front of the camera, therefore taking up a much larger angle. Sure they didnt do it that great, probably as you said, to replicate his funny walk. but its still pretty obvious logic to me.

      Also, it appears to be tossed away from where he's looking because the camera is near the target, looking up. The arc of the grenade as it falls means it moves away from the guy's (and the camera's) line of sight, but would presumably end up pretty close at the end.

    Fun fact about the Bond set. After they were done with the submarine hanger, the set went to Riddley Scott for the filming of Legend (1986). The set was furnished with a foam forest with some real trees for filler, birds, and lots of bird feather shavings for snow.
    Over the course of filming fumes from gas-controlled bonfires gathered in the rafters. Then one day this powder keg of a set caught fire and it ALL burned to the ground. Ridley Scott shelved his work and went golfing after seeing the set completely engulfed.

    Moonraker had janky 1970's special effects.... but it's the only movie I know which had the space shuttle taking off inverted like the real shuttle did, every other movie gets it wrong, or just uses stock footage. The best sequence in that movie is right at the start where there's a fight for a parachute while falling from a plane.
    Really, you should do a Stuntmen react to some of the classic bond stunts - like the base jumping in Spy Who Loved Me & View To A Kill. The fights on top of a Train and a Plane(!!!!) in Octopussy. Using live aligators as stepping stones in Live & Let Die. And of course the corkscrew car jump in Man With The Golden Gun

    Timothy Dalton is the most underrated Bond and his two movies are excellent and he deserved more. I slept on him for too long because of what I heard about it, but having a Shakespearean actor in the role adds gravitas and levity unlike any other Bond performance.

    Interesting connection between Spy Who Loved Me and Casino Royale: I believe the construction site in the latter (2006) was actually the location of an abandoned hotel project that producer Michael Wilson noticed when they were shooting the former (1977). He made a mental note that they should find a way to use it someday. Almost 30 years later, they did, and spectacularly.

    The submarine pen interior of the supertanker is still an amazing set to this day.

    The tanker interior sound stage in The Spy Who Loved Me is impressive, but the space station set in Moonraker was actually the biggest set ever built.

    Now everytime there's a very quick-paced action scene with a lot of cuts, I will hear "blrblrblrp". Thanks Sam. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    in "Romancing the Stone" (1984) there is a shot where 2 stunpeople and a car fall of a waterfall. It is amazing. Also, on "The Librarian: Quest for the Spear" (2004) the movie is FULL of weird low budget special effects, even if it is a fun movie
