** Necros' tactics of incapacitating people, stealing their clothes to use as a disguise, imitating their voices and assassinating targets via strangulation with a wire became the standard operating procedure of Agent 47 from the Hitman franchise. This goes further in that the developers of the Hitman games, IO Interactive, obtained the rights to develop James Bond games in 2020.

The murder of Saunders, via sabotaged door while Necros is dressed as a balloon salesman, is even a perfect example of how the game would present an "Accident Kill".

* BadassDecay: Necros is established as being a brutal and effective hitman. He defeats [[BattleButler Green Four]] in a CurbStompBattle and captures Koskov completely on his own during his attack in England. When he fights against Bond outside the plane during the climax he heavily kicks Bond at the start and that's about all he does. After that he repeatedly gets punched by Bond, misses his knife attack, has to grab his enemy's boot for stability and eventually falls to his death. To his defense, their fight was an InterestingSituationDuel on a cargo net outside a flying plane which he probably never experienced before, [[{{Film/Octopussy}} unlike Bond]].

Felix is invalid due to being an overall liked character and the latter entry suggests more apathy than the hatred required for Scrappydom

* TheScrappy:
** John Terry as Felix Leiter, who has all of four minutes of screentime and in the words of one critic has zero chemistry with Timothy Dalton's Bond. His brushed-off cameo of an appearance is especially jarring when you consider that it's the first time the character has appeared since all the way back in ''Film/LiveAndLetDie'', and his long-running chemistry with Bond would be a vital point in [[Film/LicenceToKill the next movie]]. (Maybe because of this, the actor who played Felix in ''Live and Let Die'' was brought back for said next movie.)
** While not the worst Bond villains out there and certainly by no means incompetent, General Koskov and Brad Whittaker are considered underwhelming and forgettable. Not helping matters is how they are overshadowed by the Dragon [[EnsembleDarkhorse Necros]] and are sandwiched between the wonderfully EvilIsHammy [[Film/AViewToAKill Max Zorin]] and the scarily realistic [[Film/LicenceToKill Franz Sanchez]]. Perhaps even the producers agreed to an extent, as Creator/JoeDonBaker was brought back [[Film/{{GoldenEye}} eight years later]] as a completely different character and no one noticed.

** When Khan says “women” in exasperation over Kara’s determination to rescue James it’s played for laughs. But given that the Mujahadeen would evolve into the Taliban, who are certainly massive oppressors of women, it becomes a lot less funny.
