When adjusted for 2011 dollars Thunderball made $587 million and nearly a billion worldwide. still holds the record.
I don't know how I feel about underwater sequences. I'm really as big on those as the snow or the car chase sequences.
How much more is that than Goldfinger?
I'd like a good car chase given the editing in the one in QoS, but my first choice over both would be a snow based sequence!
LOL likewise with my dad. He's the one that got me into Bond at a young age. I remember sitting down together and he told me how much he loved the books as well as the movies. We watched all of Connery's movies that day. In fact Thunderball is his favorite, particularly for the underwater scenes.
I have many fond childhood memories of discovering the different Bond movies through my Dad taping them off TV for me. When I was younger I watched Goldfinger non stop, just about wore the tape out.
