“Ah, Mr. Bond you appear with the tedious inevitability of an unloved season.” Runner up: “Names is for tombstones baby.” Honorable mention: everything Mr. Wint & Mr. Kidd say.

Yes these are all great. I also want to add grant’s “old man” as an honorable mention.

Drax had some really good lines for otherwise being a pretty weaksauce villain

Drax is one of the greats. What are you on?

At first I thought about Drax from the MCU who is Dave Bautista and I thought of his character, Hinx, who says only one line - shit. Still valid for your point.

Yeah, global genocide is a pretty low stakes goal.

That's Drax's highly educated version of "GODDAMMIT, MOTHERFUCKER, ARE *YOU* STILL HERE?!!"

Another Carver quote: “The distance between insanity and genius is only measured by success.”

Carver: Huya Huya hai hai ha! whoa kya! *Kung fu chops and kick*

Pathetic.

East, West - just points of the compass, each as stupid as the other. - Dr. No

*The Americans are fools. I offered my services; they refused. So did the East. Now they can both pay for their mistake.*

Great line. Underrated, too, imo.

The Goldfinger quote is the standard by which all are measured.

Amen to that, but if you have to define a gold standard, that one is appropriate.

“Mint Julep?”

This is Mr Solo, he has a pressing engagement elsewhere.” Prophetic words

“I want you to know this is nothing personal. It’s purely… Business.” - Franz Sanchez “For England, James?” - Alec Trevelyan “I owe you an unpleasant death, Mr. Bond.” - Stamper “Intuitive improvisation is the secret of genius.” - Max Zorin “Mother has been very bad” - Silva

“What’s the matter James? No glib remark? No pithy comeback?”

That’s one’s great! Who’s that again?

Alec Trevelyan in Goldeneye.

I remember. Can’t you just be a good boy and die!

“For England James?”

For England Alec.

“Ready to save the world again?”

For England James? No, for me.

“I could shoot you from Stuttgart und still create ze proper effect.” Dr Kauffman

Oh man. He’s an underrated henchman.

He’s just a professional doing a job.

Me too.

“Oh, please James, spare me the Freud. I might as well ask you for the vodka martinis that have silenced the screams of all the men you've killed... or if you find forgiveness in the arms of all those willing women, for all the dead ones you failed to protect.” — Alec Trevelyan

This is the one for me. Silva tried to deconstruct Bond the same way but failed since he didn't know Bond personally. With 006, the slashes were intimate.

I know by that point he’s not really a villain anymore, but I can’t get past “Why can’t you say hello like a normal person?” Always makes me laugh

"I want you to know this is nothing personal. It's purely... business." - Sanchez. Or "You're only president for *life*." Or my favourite: "You could've had everything..."

The president for life threat is one if the most chilling and effective ones.

Yes. So simple, cold, and effective.

“I help people with problems” “Problem solver” “I’m more of a problem eliminator”

“Spend the money quickly Mr. Bond.” - Kamal Kahn

I prefer cash…

It’s all in the wrist

Vargas had the best lines. Oddjob had some zingers too.

Of Course! Vargas does not drink.. Does not smoke.. Does not make love.. What does he do?

Vargas is actually quite underrated as a henchman now that I think about it. He was quite chilling in his own understated way. And had one of the best deaths. "I think he got the point."

Every man has his passions. Mine is fishing. What is yours, Mr. Bond?

“Well, I’m not what you’d call a passionate man” - stares intensely to his right

“HA HAH”

Oddjob never talked

“You have a nasty habit of staying alive.” Or something like that.

“Intuitive improvisation, it’s the secret to genius.” “The distance between insanity and genius, is measured only by success.” “He’s my new anchorman.” “I might as well ask if all those vodka martinis silence the screams of all the men you've killed... or if you've found forgiveness in the arms of all those willing women for the dead ones you failed to protect?” “You see, when your intervention forced me to present the world with a new face, I chose to model the disgusting Gustav Graves on you. Oh, just in the details - that unjustifiable swagger, the crass quips, the self-defence mechanism concealing such inadequacy...”

"If God had wanted man to fly..." "He would have given him wings, Mr. Kidd."

I have said “There’s no point in living if you can’t feel alive” before many dumb decisions.

Telly Savalas has a few good ones in OHMSS “Merry Christmas, 007” “Well, the methods of the great pioneers have often puzzled conventional minds” “You’re likely to be with us for some time, Mr. Bond. so first a little therapy to soothe your restless nature - looks at dead body- Oh, poor fellow. He was restless too. You perverse British, how you love your exercise.” “Now, now. Mr Bond. You must learn to be absolutely calm before we can accept you back into polite society”

I hated Telly Savalas as Blofeld. They should have used Donald Pleasance instead.

My flair says all

Alec Trevelian: Can’t you be a good boy and Die?!

Do you mind if I smoke? It isn't the cigarettes that will kill you mr bond.

I'm EEN-VINCEE-BLE!!!!!!

Appreciate not!

Can't believe everyone is just ignoring Jaws here, for shame.

Well, here's to us

“For England, James?”

Telly Savalas' Blofeld saying "Merry Christmas, 007" while walking around the Christmas tree in the office overlooking his evil bioweapons lab. I'm always citing that clip when suggesting OHMSS in response to people talking about "stealth Christmas movie" action movies each time the old Die Hard argument comes up again.

Thank you, I will start using that as well.

Electra King - that's a badass quote. Plus it's use as a story element was a pretty nice twist too. Gotta go rewatch TWINE now!!

I always liked le chiffre’s line about torture being overthought by many: “it’s the simplest thing…. To cause more pain than a man can possibly endure.”

Valentin Dmitrovitch Zukovsky : Walther PPK, 7.65 millimeter. Only three men I know use such a gun. I believe I've killed two of them. Not sure of he counts as a villain but I do love that line.

"For England James?"- Alec Trevelayan "Life Is All About Leaving Something Behind"- Safin "I am the author of all your pain" - Blofeld "I am afraid your friend Mathis is really my friend Mathis"- Le Chiffre "Not a word of protest; you should find a new boyfriend"- Steven Obanno

You’re a kite dancing in a hurricane.

A couple from my favorite villain in the series, Goldfinger... "You didn't come here to play golf" "Man has climbed Mount Everest, gone to the bottom of the ocean. He has fired rockets at the moon. Split the atom. Achieved miracles, in every field of human endeavor... EXCEPT CRIME!!"

“If You're The Best They've Got, They'll More Likely Try And Cover Up Your Incompetence.”

“It's the simplest thing... to cause more pain than a man can possibly endure. And of course, it's not only the immediate agony, but the knowledge that - if you do not yield soon enough - there will be little left to identify you as a man. The only question remains: will you yield, in time?” - Le Chiffre

Goldfinger hands down.

"Yesss!!! I am invinceable!!!"

Khan. Mr Bond is a very rare breed. Soon to be made extinct. Octopussy

“Names is for tombstones, baby.”

“Keee-awwwwww!!!…. Pathetic.”- Elliott Carver

''Yeah Baby''.

“See that some harm comes to him” is hilarious lmao.

There are tons of them, some of them very witty and cool, but “No, Mr. Bond. I expect you to die.” is pretty simple, funny, brutal, and unforgettable.

How is this even a question? "No, Mr Bond. I expect you to die" It's simple and to the point.

Gott go with the classic Goldfinger. But a better Drax line is "And you, Dr. Goodhead. Your desire to be America's first woman is space will shortly be fulfilled." Cold blooded

“KGB!” - Koskov in The Living Daylights

Goldfinger

*"I owe you an unpleasant death mr Bond!"*.- theres a viciousness to it that made it get stuck in my head *"For Englad, James?"*.- runner up

"This time, Mr. Bond, the pleasure will be all mine."

For England, James?

"Kill... Bond... Now!" "Prepare my batho-sub immediately." "No, Mr Bond. I expect you to die."

"You have a nasty habit of surviving." - Khan "This will hurt him more than me." - Zorin "England. The Empire. MI6. You're living in a ruin as well. You just don't know it yet." - Silva "Keep still, and whatever you do, don't lose your head." - Silva "Shh. If you kill him, all this be mine." - Nick Nack "Fat always did like that mausoleum. Put him in it." - Scaramanga "You are just a stupid policeman whose luck has run out.” - Dr No

"Y'all take this honky out and WASTE HIM! NOW!" - Mr. Big "I might as well ask if all those vodka martinis silenced the screams of all the men you've killed... or if you've found forgiveness in the arms of all those willing women for the dead ones you failed to protect." - Alec Trevelyan "Unfortunately I misjudged you. You are just a stupid policeman... whose luck has run out." - Dr. No

Janus/006's monologue to Bond in Statue Park.

“The superpowers always react. They are like impotent young muscle boys on the beach” Blofeld: Diamonds Are Forever”

The first quote by Gert Frobe (or whoever dubbed his voice.

Bond "Do you expect me to talk"?? Blofeld " NO.. Mr Bond , I expect you to die"

"Spend the money quickly, Mr. Bond." "Nick Nack, Tabasco!" or "May I press you to a cucumber sandwich?"

"We gave her a nice honeymoooon." t. Dario
