Line 87:
** Alec Trevelyan of ''[[Goldeneye]]'' sought revenge against the British government for betraying his family, who were Lienz Cossacks sent back to Stalin, by detonating the titular [[Kill Sat]] over London. Furthermore, he planned to steal billions of pounds from the Bank of England -- as well as all sorts of data like credit ratings, land registers and criminal records -- and the records of the transactions will be zapped, leaving him very rich and leaving the British -- and indeed, the world -- economy in shambles.
** Elliot Carver of ''[[Tomorrow Never Dies]]'' wanted to start a war between the West and China to increase the ratings of his media empire, and then to murder the Chinese government so his ally in the military could take over, who would give him exclusive media access (China being the only country in the world that refused him broadcast rights after he gained the ability to reach the entire world with his new satellite system).
** ''[[The World Is Not Enough (Film)|The World Is Not Enough]]'' has Elektra King and Renard scheming to raise petroleum prices by triggering a nuclear meltdown in the waters of Istanbul, destroying every oil pipeline except for hers and giving her a monopoly on Europe's oil.
** ''[[Die Another Day]]'''s [[Big Bad]], Gustav Graves, takes a page from Blofeld's book from ''[[Diamonds Are Forever]]'' and uses a diamond-powered [[Kill Sat]] that runs on solar energy. He sought to use it to help North Korea take over the South, as well as Japan and presumably elsewhere (he is actually a corrupt North Korean colonel [[Faking the Dead]] and in disguise as a wealthy [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]).
** ''[[Casino Royale]]'' involves one bad guy, criminal banker Le Chiffre, who short-sells successful companies and engineers terrorist attacks in order to sink their stock values and turn a profit. The other bad guys are his superiors and clients who are pissed because he is doing this with their funds and behind their back. Bond screws up Le Chiffre's plan by foiling a terrorist attack and Le Chiffre has to hold and win a multi-million dollar poker tournament to pay his clients back. Bond is there to win it to force Le Chiffre to sell out his clients and superiors to [[MI 6]] in return for sanctuary before the other villains track him down and kill him.
