Line 21:
* The 1967 version was an unholy mess of a spoof, with no less than 8 Bonds (9 including [[Sean Connery]], who does not appear but receives a [[Shout-Out]]) and almost as many directors. Logic is paid little heed in the pursuit of comedy. Notably, it includes David Niven as the one-and-only original Sir James Bond -- Niven was Fleming's first choice for the part before Connery made it his own -- as well as Ursula Andress's second appearance in a Bond movie, this time as both the Bond girl and James Bond. It also starred [[Woody Allen]] as young Jimmy Bond (his "disappointing" nephew), [[Peter Sellers]] as Evelyn Tremble a.k.a. James Bond, and [[Orson Welles]] as Le Chiffre. This version of the movie is now [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=upMtEJSj9NA officially hosted on YouTube], for your viewing curiousity.

* [[All Girls Want Bad Boys]]: Brutally [[Deconstructed]] with Solange. She married Demitrios and regrets it, then briefly hooks up with Bond, remarking on how they're both "bad men" and how she loves this kind of guy because they're "so much more interesting" than "nice guys". Later in the film, her association with the man who helped orchestrate the bomb plot (Demitrios) and the man who foiled it (Bond) are what gets her tortured to death.
Line 158:
* [[Theme Music Withholding]]: Done so very well.
* [[These Hands Have Killed]]: Vesper goes through this during her [[Shower of Angst]], after she's involved with Bond's confrontation with the African warlords.
* [[Throw-Away Guns]]: A bad guy throws his empty gun at Bond, who promptly [[Catch and Return|catches it and throws it back]]. [[Crowning Moment of Funny|Into his face]]. The clip is #7 of ''[[Cracked.com]]'''s "[http://www.cracked.com/photoplasty_1180_the-17-most-unintentionally-hilarious-movie-fight-scenes_p2/?view=article The 17 Most Unintentionally Hilarious Movie Fight Scenes]".
* [[Too Kinky to Torture]]: Not really, but [[Invoked Trope|invoked]] by Bond as part of being [[Defiant to the End]]. He asks Le Chiffre to scratch an itch for him.
