Coby + Connery -- Round 1 ;) Round 2 here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ptyii89ltrWVm5c.html

Sean Connery will always be bond .. James Bond 👍🔥🔥🔥

The apperance of Ursula Andrews who plays Honey was an iconic moment in film because she was the first Bond girl ever.

This movie changed my life . As a 16 year old in dark , gloomy, poverty stricken Manchester in 1962 I saw this. This was the man we all wanted to be . We didnt know such a world existed. Sean WAS James Bond. All the others have just been playing a part.

Just watch them all in release order, Coby. 🍸

Connery was THE man! Effortlessly cool and charismatic. A true movie star. RIP.

You're right about movies, cars and music from the 60's and 70's. Those were glorious times. I was born in 55 😁

Not my favorite Bond movie, but DEFINITELY my favorite Bond! Connery4Ever!!

Coby, with the Bond films you can basically see how not only fashion, cars, and technology change, but the world as well, in terms of villains.

Sean Connery as james bond is the definition of what Bond movies should be..... always.

"Bond. James, Bond" is in the 100 top AFI film quotes

This is where it all began

Coby, Felix is played by Jack Lord who is famous for playing the lead in the 60s police drama Hawaii-5-O. Bond was driving a Sunbeam Alpine 2 convertible in the movie. Honey was played by Swiss actress and model Ursula Andress. Glad you enjoyed the first Bond film.👍🏻 I think Sean made 6 Bond films and one unofficial Bond movie. Next is From Russia with Love.

The sunglasses guy is actually Jack Lord (stage name)he played Steve McGarrett on the original series Hawaii five 0 which ran from 1968-1980. And was the best cop series ever.

During the 1960s, it was all about the three “B’s”: TV: Batman Music: The Beatles Movies: Bond

The heyday for Bond in the '60s with Sean Connery

Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan are two of my favorite James Bond.

Sean Connery is James Bond .. there is no other 💛

Ursula walking up on the beach .. THE iconic poster for 20 years, until Farrah!

Coby is a breath of fresh air...her laugh, her reacts, the "Joie de vivre", joy of life she has...wow great react channel...but her laugh is so so amazing...best way to start or end a day, IMO

Old vintage cameras used what was called flash bulb. That is what she broke and used to cut Qual on his cheek.

As a lifelong Bond fan, great to have Coby reacting to the classic films - it's earnt a subscribe! Dr. No is one of the more difficult films for modern viewers to get through because of its old-fashioned feel and slow pace, in part a reflection on how low-budget it was even for the time, costing in the region of $1.1m (about $11.5m today). Ken Adam, the production designer, had a budget of under $15k (about $150k today) and achieved miracles with it, including creating the striking room in which Dent is reprimanded by Dr. No for just $745, for instance. That lack of money also explains some of the slightly choppy editing, as there just wasn't enough money to do proper reshooting. Editor Peter Hunt actually did a fantastic job pulling the whole thing together and even though the pace of the storytelling is slow, he developed an editing style called 'crash cutting', removing all the extraneous shots common at the time of the hero walking between locations and so on, to keep the film as lean as possible. That style of editing was instrumental in setting the standard for how films are edited today, especially action films. Although Connery was the face of the films, the early Bond films were arguably even more impactful in the talent behind the camera. A nod is also due to Johanna Harwood, the only credited female writer on a Bond film (as well as the next one, and uncredited on the one after) until No Time To Die, and Nikki van der Zyl, who dubbed over almost every female character in the film. Because of the budget, the film is arguably a rare example of the book, to which it is otherwise relatively faithful, having more action that the film: in the book, Bond's easy escape from his prison cell is a deliberate part of Doctor No's design, who wants to use Bond as a guinea pig in an experiment to test the limits of human pain, including burning heat and electric shocks (hinted at, ineffectually, in the film) and culminating, superbly, in a fight with a giant squid. A change for the better in the film is No boiling to death in the reactor pool, as opposed to being buried under a mountain of guano (bat dung!) in the book. Another is that in the book, a venomous centipede is placed in Bond's bed rather than a tarantula: the latter is rather more cinematic, I think. Even though the film doesn't top many Bond fans' rankings, it often sits around the middle as a mark of respect for how much it gets right, particularly nailing Bond's anti-hero character out of the gate, thanks to Connery's darkly charismatic performance and a willingness to embrace a level of sex and violence that was extremely controversial and never before seen in protagonists at the time - try and think of another film of the era in which the hero beds three women, including one just to pass the time before having her arrested, and murders a man in cold blood. Scenes such as Bond's iconic introduction, the aforementioned killing of Dent, Honey and Dr. No's respective entrances into the film, and No's death, are not only favourites of Bond fans but have also, to varying degrees, become widely recognisable moments in cinematic culture. All the Connery films have very different tones, so it'll be fascinating to find out what Coby makes of them. The next one is still relatively old-fashioned, though Coby might appreciate a certain Hitchcock inflection, but a big step up in pace, stakes, complexity and that all-important Bondiness. Looking forward to it!

Bond,,,,,James Bond. 😎 Connery is the BEST Bond.

Producer Cubby Broccoli was having trouble casting the role of James Bond .His wife went to the movies to see Darby O ,Gill with Sean Connery . When she came home she said I found your James Bond .

Women of every generation since 1962 have reacted in the same way to the "Bond, James Bond" scene. Coby is no different. It is such a delight to see the effect Sean has on women, so it is easy to understand Bond's success with them in the films (however, there is always a comeback, so watch for this!). So glad you enjoyed this, Coby. Stick with it. The budgets get bigger, the stories more complex and more locations - with Sean at the helm, at all times! The best Bond ever.

Awesome. You're watching all of the Bonds from the beginning. So rare this happens with movie reactions.

You seemed surprised to see the female photographer take the "flashbulb" out of her camera, break the glass bulb against the table, & then use it to cut Quarrel's face. And yes, you had to remove & replace the flashbulb every time you wanted to take a photo in low light. The sportscar that Bond rented was a British Sunbeam Alpine. It had a 4 cyl. engine & 4-speed trans. After Carrol Shelby installed a 260 cu. in. Ford V-8 in an British A.C. chassis & named it the Shelby Cobra, Sunbeam took the Alpine & installed the same Ford V-8 in it & named the model the Sunbeam Tiger.

Connery as Bond in Dr. No ('62); From Russia with Love ('63); Goldfinger ('64); Thunderball ('65); You Only Live Twice ('67); then he took a break for one film (where George Lazenby starred as Bond); then Diamonds are Forever ('71); then Roger Moore took over the role but Connery returned in Never Say Never Again in '83 (which was an unofficial Bond film, NOT produced by Albert Broccoli & Eon Productions). Although, NSNA is a pretty good Bond film.

Sean Connery as 007. Perfection.

Glad you enjoyed it, Coby. When Dr. No was released, it had only been 17 years since the Second World War had ended, and people around the world (but especially in the UK), were ready to see foreign locales that they couldn’t ever dream (or afford) to visit at that time, so the travel aspect in the Bond films gave audiences a flavour of what life could be like abroad. The budget for the film, in 1962 was $1M (equivalent to about $10.3M today), which wasn’t a lot for a film company like United Artists (who were funding the film), but it was a slight risk on their part that they might not see any profit from that expenditure. Fleming wasn’t initially happy with the choice of Connery as Bond (he favoured someone more debonair like David Niven), but upon seeing the finished film, and the next one in the series, From Russia with Love, he came around to the idea that Connery was the right actor after all. So sad Fleming didn’t get to see the finished 3rd Bond film, Goldfinger, released in September 1964, having succumbed to a fatal heart attack, one month before on August 12th. Dr. No was the 6th Bond novel, published in 1958, but wasn’t the original 1st choice to be the 1st James Bond film. That was meant to be the 9th novel, Thunderball, published in 1961, but that story got tied up in a court battle as to who truly owned the rights to the screenplay, so Dr. No was chosen instead. Interesting that you like the music. You’re probably referring to the Jamaican Calypso music, as the original score by Monty Norman is not a fan favourite. Norman did give us The James Bond Theme, which was reworked by John Barry into a powerhouse guitar and horns piece that truly captured the essence of who James Bond was, and how dangerous his missions could be. John Barry would score the next film, From Russia with Love, and a further 10 more Bond films over the next 24 years and he is regarded as the best ever Bond composer. Dr. No doesn’t, as the 1st film, completely nail down the ‘Bond formula’ (which would add to the series as a whole and which would allow the series to go on as a worldwide cinematic phenomenon), but there are elements in it that would carry on into the 2nd film and beyond: Bond bedding three, sometimes four girls in each film, the globetrotting, the gadgets, the touches of sadism, the humour (most of which was missing from the books), the wonderful main Bond girls, dripping with beauty and sexuality, the Bond villains with their bonkers plots of controlling or destroying the world (or for their own personal gain), and not forgetting the amazing set designs, courtesy in the 1960’s and 1970’s by production designer Ken Adam. All of these elements were usually wrapped up in wonderful witty and suspenseful screenplays, many of which were written by the American screenwriter, Richard Mailabum, who wrote (or co-wrote) 13 Bond screenplays (starting with Dr. No.) In fact, the success of the early Bond films were down to a core number of people behind the camera. Dr. No’s British Director, Terence Young (who acted like Bond off set and gave pointers to Connery in how to be suave and sophisticated), John Barry and Richard Maibaum (both of whom I’ve already mentioned) and last, but not least, British film editor Peter Hunt, who’s fast cut editing (especially in the fight and action scenes) was new and original in 1962, and helped make British made films like the Bond series more palatable to American and other foreign audiences who had been used to long, master shots of scenes in films that held on for too long and slowed the pace of the film down enormously. All of these people, and their talents would only get better as the Bond series progressed and much of the action, humour and foreign locale adventure that is common place now with series like the Mission Impossible films, owe their debt and thanks to the 1st film that started it all: Dr. No.

This time Coby's got Dr. No It's the OG in her whole James Bond flow I'm watching it too and to me, it's all new I just listen to her blow-by-blow

You have no idea how many hours I spent when I was a kid practicing saying... Bond, James Bond.

Nobody does it better than Connery! Sylvia French was the most stunning woman to grace ANY Bond movie! IMO. No entrance/introduction of Bond is better than Connery's first at that casino table.

Goldfinger is the movie where it all came together, and introduced us to the Aston Martin, you will love this one.

There is something special about this old Bond movies. They get better and better by time. Excited for number 2 :)

@Coby Three years before he was the first James Bond, Sean Connery was a main character in the 1959 Disney movie, "Darby O'Gill and the Little People", which is an annual St. Patrick's Day tradition in my home.

Good job Coby start at the first and do them in order!

Ursulla Andress emerging from the sea was an iconic moment in Bond movies..we had to wait until Die Another Day when it was repeated by Hallie Berry emerging from the sea, with Pearce Brosnan now playing Bond.

This is what James Bond is all about. Just perfection, timeless classic👌

What’s up Coby when I was younger James Bond was like the coolest guy in the world thanks for reacting to this movie you’re awesome 🔥

"World domination. The same old dream. Our asylums are full of people who think they're Napoleon. Or God." That's such a great quote. Taken directly out of Fleming's novel. Sadly, still relevant today.

Mad respect for you viewing these, even if you just 'sample' some of them. A lot can be taken for granted so just a bit of context here for the early Bond flicks... you gotta understand when the author, Ian Fleming, came out with these novels, and then the films, to the world, and mostly the Brits, it was literally fantastical. I mean, remember it was still war-torn England, people were on food stamps and rations, the landscape was still a lot of burnt down buildings, and international flights to 'faraway' lands, well, out of reach for most people. So to see someone on a flight, let alone the interior of an airport... then there's the food(!). In one movie, Bond walks by a massive fruit bowl in his apartment, stops to pick ONE grape, and eats it while walking away. Imagine being in that audience salivating at a bowl of fruit you've probably never seen in real life... fantastical. So yeah, these early films play out like some lush fantasy escape, no wonder the books and films were big hits. - instantly subscribes 😂

I was 12 when this came out in 1962 and i remember it well. It was something we had never seen before and we were hooked. I loved being a teen in the 60's and in my 20's in the 70's, exciting times indeed.

I remember taking a date to dinner & downtown to see "Dr. No" at 1 of the 3 major theaters in Houston (1962). Sport coat & tie. My date in a dress with nylons & low heel shoes. Her Dad met me at the door & I was instructed to have her home by Midnight. I was 15 & had bought my 1st car, a 1957 Chev. Bel Air like the car that picked up Bond at the airport in Jamaica. However, mine was a 2-Dr. hardtop, silver with a white top but the same red interior. V-8 engine bored out to 4" (305 cu. in.). Those were the days of hanging out at the drive-in hamburger joint with the occasional stop light drag race challenge.

Bond Movies are the perfect thermometer for what films were like in each era. 60s 70s 80s 90s 00s they span so many decades and show off so much of what each time period was like. Not just in the setting, but in the filmmaking and story telling techniques used.

To me, Sean Connery will always be bond. I’m in my late 60’s and as a kid, going to a Bond movie was a real treat.

Dr. No! Yes!

You're experiencing the quirkiness of the original Bond films. In regards to the "dragon", both Quarrel and Honey Ryder are rather naive individuals. Honey lives mostly off the grid, other than her brief visits to Miami to sell shells. So she's unfamiliar with tanks etc.

Sean Connery, the best James Bond of all time

Funny you reacting to a movie I've seen dozens of times since I was a kid! Well done Coby! And, now you know what SPECTRE stands for!

Your smile while watching these movies is great. Thanks.

My two favorites are yet to come; "Thunderball" and "Goldfinger." Next, if you go sequentially, is "From Russia with Love" and it is also well thought of. The list for the Sean Connery Bond films is, in order: "Dr. No", "From Russia with Love", "Goldfinger", "Thunderball", "You Only Live Twice", and then "Diamonds are Forever." Then in the eighties he made "Never Say Never Again." The film "Goldfinger" will set the Bond formula which will be followed for decades.

Awesome review, thanks for the larger screen to your right. I hope you get to see this and other 60s Bonds on the bog screen..

Although the formula is a bit rough around the edges in this first outing, you can definitely see why the franchise took off. Connery's Bond is immortal.

Welcome to the 007 franchise, Coby!

Great reaction! I look forward to the rest of your Bond journey. I'm glad you've seen the Daniel Craig ones, i'm not personally a fan of those, but love almost all the older ones.

Here's the excerpt from the first Bond novel where Bond initially presents his drink of choice to Felix and the reader: 'A dry martini,' he said. 'One. In a deep champagne goblet.' 'Oui, monsieur.' 'Just a moment. Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it very well until it's ice-cold, then add a large thin slice of lemon-peel. Got it?' 'Certainly, monsieur.' The barman seemed pleased with the idea. 'Gosh, that's certainly a drink,' said Leiter. Bond laughed. 'When I'm... er... concentrating,' he explained, 'I never have more than one drink before dinner. But I do like that one to be large and very strong and very cold and very well-made. I hate small portions of anything, particularly when they taste bad. This drink's my own invention. I'm going to patent it when I can think of a good name.'

I have heard that the vodka martini “shaken but not stirred” was Ian Fleming who served in WW2’s personal comment about his drinks during the Battle of Britain German bombing. Like his drink the people were “shaken by the German bombers but not stirred”!

Back in 1962, the restrictions on on-screen violence were stricter. They couldn't show Bond plunging a knife into that guy, in any explicit way. Of course, in 1963, Alfred Hitchcock released "Psycho" and the standards started to loosen up a bit. :)

People tend to look down on the Roger Moore Bond films. But I love them because they were released when I was a teenager and I saw them all at the cinema 😀

Avid James Bond fan here I really enjoy your enthusiasm despite it being a very old film with dated aspects that for soemone new to the films can somewhat take you out and be a hard watch but Dr no basically set the foundations of what’s to come so hope you enjoy progressing for cinema history

Fantastic reaction Coby! I'm very happy you enjoyed the film! I loved watching it with you! You seem to get the Bond universe so that's awesome! Looking forward to your Goldfinger reaction. That's my personal favourite Connery film. Your knowledge of film is excellent! I completely forgot he did Dragonheart! 🐉Keep up the good work Coby! It's very fun watching movies with you! 💖

Welcome to the world of 007. Enjoy the ride. It always makes me very happy when people experience the movies for the first time. Glad you enjoyed DR. NO. I'm shure you're gonna LOVE the next one.

Next try "From Russia with Love" Sean Connery & Robert Shaw.

Watch all the Connery 007 films in chronological order... You'd love them!

I was born in '55 and watched all the Bond films in the theater. I got a toy spy briefcase for Christmas and pretended I was Bond. I thought I was so cool. Sean Connery was so suave and sophisticated in this role, I loved it. 😎

The gun replacement segment is one of those special little moments in the movie. Love it!

The blue convertible is a Sunbeam Alpine. Bond gets his first Aston Martin DB5 in the 3rd movie, "Goldfinger".

Great reaction Coby. Sean Connery did 5 Bond movies before stepping down, then came back for 1 more when his replacement didn't work out. Then over a decade later, he was part of a rival Bond movie, that has a whole convoluted backstory behind its production. So 7 in all, to answer your question. They made this for less than $1 million. Even in those days that was a pretty low budget. Its success meant they could spend quite a bit more on future movies. And the production values do improve. Over the next couple of movies, the formula will get perfected, and you'll see the gadgets, the Aston Martin, more convoluted plots, and really elaborate sets. One set in You Only Live Twice cost more money than Dr. No. Glad you enjoyed it, and looking forward to your journey through the Connery Bonds. I hope you eventually get through the whole series. 25 movies might seem daunting, but you're already got 6 under your belt. So peck away at it, and you'll get there.

Almost forgot! A Cayman Islander took me fishing in a little boat! You should have seen the turbots we caught with a line wrapped around a Clorox bottle. And a faux bunny picked me up in Tokyo. The closest I got was the girl I met in Hong Kong because her dad was in Special Branch and when I stayed with her in London, Mi-6 hq was just down the street.

Hey Coby, you should watch Sean walking…his incredible movement was one of the primary reasons he was cast as Bond. After a very unusual audition in which Connery had the balls to just sit and describe how he would play Bond rather than do a typical audition, he left the building…..one of the producers looked out of the window and saw Connery walking across the car park and said “look at him move….he’s like a big cat!”…. and the rest is history 😊 The car he drove to the encounter with the secretary was a Sunbeam Alpine….cool 60’s soft top from England.

My mum’s cousin took me to see this when it came out in London. I was only 8 and I think people today cannot grasp what it was like to see the first Bond film as we had no idea what was coming. It was stunning. Thank you Pamela for taking me.

Connery is my favorite, even though I loved Roger Moore when I was growing up. Watching the evolution of the character grow and change through the years is great fun, I hope Coby will continue with all the movies she hasn't seen. There is something for everyone, character evolution, midcentury furniture & decor, fashion, the women, the cars, its all good fun. It's funny that Bond's first car was a little Sunbeam convertible.

"Shaken, Not Stirred", explained in an episode of the tv show "The West Wing". Martin Sheen plays (American) President Josiah Bartlett, "Shaken, not stirred, will get you cold water with a dash of gin and dry vermouth. The reason you stir it with a special spoon is so not to chip the ice. James is ordering a weak martini and being snooty about it".

Fantastic reaction. I have been looking forward to this ever since your Craig reactions, and you did not disappoint. Since you enjoyed Dr No you will have a blast going forward. The first six Bond films are must-see, top-class action spy thrillers. As are most of the rest!

28:06 It always makes me laugh when the guards voice on the boat doesn't change in volume even when he takes the megaphone away from his mouth! 👍🤣

Ian Fleming, Bond's creator, believed that stirring a drink compromised on flavor. Fleming preferred his martinis shaken because he believed it preserved the flavor of the drink. As far as the actual Bond lore around the shakened not stirred, The vodka martini's clear color and lack of a strong odor help Bond blend into a crowd. Bond's martini order is a tactic to socially manipulate the surrounding room. And lastly, shaking aerates the drink, making it colder and slightly more diluted than stirring. As well vodka made from grain rather than potatoes makes his drink even better. Shaking is also said to dissolve the vermouth better, making it less oily tasting.

Before acting Sean Connery was a body builder and came in 3rd at the 1953 Mr Universe competition. Look up his old photos.

I’m such an old Bond-head that I swear I’ve watched at least the Connery and Moore ones at least 100 times since I was 13 (I’m 50 now). It’s refreshing to see someone watch a film so familiar to me through new eyes. Your video was a hoot! Thank you.

Dr. Evil is modeled on Ernst Stavro Blofeld, as played by Donald Pleasance, in "You Only Live Twice" (1967), the fifth Bond film.

26:00 you are thinking of hallie barry in die another day when she plays jinx... another bond classic!

Hi Coby hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤️

Coby has the prettiest smile I have ever seen.

"From Russia with Love" was the next one, and a great one - it established Bond as the coolest ever (with the introduction of secret gadgets) and set everyone up in 1964 for Goldfinger - which was the peak of Bond early popularity - all of us boys wanted to be spies and spy programs started popping up on TV everywhere. Of course in 1964 something extraordinary happened in music, you might have heard about it. Anyway and awesome time to live through.

26:15 - You would be correct in terms of how iconic this moment is. It would be mimicked by both Mike Myers and Heather Graham in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999), it would be eventually referenced by Halle Berry (appearing opposite Pierce Brosnan's James Bond) in Die Another Day (2002) and by Nathalie Emmanuel in Furious 7 (2015), and if you go back to your reaction to Casino Royale (2006), you can spot Daniel Craig coming out of the water in what has been described by fans as the male equivalent of Ursula Andress in this film

Connery...Sean Connery...the best Bond ever!

With regard to cocktails, "up" is short for "straight up" and means without ice. Classically, a martini is made with gin-a flavored alcohol. It's stirred with ice, then strained, to avoid introducing too much water from the ice and diluting the flavor. Bond is ordering a different drink. He wants vodka, ice chips, and air bubbles. Some people like cherry soda. Bond likes slushies.

Goldfinger will always be my favorite Bond film and Title Song as well.

The Names No. Doctor No🥸

Will you be reacting to the other Sean Connery bond movies? - My Auntie worked in Glasgow Airport years and years ago back when i was a kid and she met Sean and got his autograph for me and my brother. She always remembers him being polite and kind. She asked him what brings him home (or something like that) and he said “i’m here to play a little bit of golf” she spoke for a min and then went back to work. She said out of the famous people she has met at her time in that job he was up top of her list as one of the few celebrities that were actually genuinely nice. My brother took the autograph unfortunately.

I've read every novel and short story that Ian Fleming wrote about his epic character James Bond OO7. You're in for a thrilling adventure series starting with DR. NO (for limited location budget reasons). Nobody does it better than Bond.

From Russia With Love is number 2. Your reactions to the Daniel Craig Bond films were great. He, Daniel Craig, to me acts like the James Bond I have read in the books. I see a real similarity. Can't wait for the rest of your journey. As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.

He doesn't look "different" here. He looks different when he's old. He looked normal here. Honestly, you kids.

shaken not stirred - weaker drink- he still drinks a "real" drink, but stays more sober than his enemies Tarantulas are venomous, but also basically the "teddy bear" of the spider world, if there was one.

It was an error in the script because it was lifted from the Novel. Dent is using a 1911 which has 7 shots. They also switched the PPK because it wouldn't fit the silencer and used a dowel and a Browning 1910 (?). Still shows Bond is ruthless when he has to be.

The original guitar player of the theme song, taught many of the greatest rock guitar players of all time, and recently sold thst guitar on pawnstars for about 65 trillion dollars!

Of all the Bonds, Sean Connery was the best. As for Ursula, she was drop dead gorgeous.

Don't know who told you it fits in with Daniel Craig's James bond they're's no connection.Daniel Craig's James bond is the franchise reboot there's no affiliation to cubby broccoli's bond.

Another movie where Sean Connery is even younger is "Darby Ogill and the little people"

The actual inspiration for Dr. Evil is actor Donald Pleasance performing as archvillain Blofeld in You Only Live Twice 1967.
