If he’s not hated he’s not a Scrappy


* TheScrappy:
** Bibi Dahl is usually regarded as rather off-putting, being a teenage girl who comes on to much older men. She is also unnecessary in the plot, and it doesn't help that Melina Havelock and the Countess Lisl are much more interesting and complex Bond Girls.
** The BigBad Kristatos is not hated by the fandom, but is generally considered a forgettable villain. The reveal of him as the villain is no longer as shocking as it once was, and he isn't particularly eccentric or memorable otherwise.

* OnceOriginalNowOverdone: Up to this film, the Bond series had entirely straightforward stories where he's given a villain to defeat -- the nearest exception being in ''Film/DiamondsAreForever'', and even that didn't make much of an effort to disguise the fact that Blofeld was the actual BigBad -- and keeps fighting until he does it. The reveal that this time he's been going after the wrong guy while his supposed ally is the true BigBad was mind-blowing at the time, while nowadays this kind of plot twist is entirely expected in an espionage thriller.

** The situation of the guy wearing the JIM diving suit is rather unpleasant to think about, what with [[WhyAmITicking a bomb being attached to the back of his head as he's completely unable to remove it thanks to his limited body movement]], but when he finds that it's too late to get it off, his expression and CurseCutShort make it look less like he knows he's going to die painfully and more like he just realized he accidentally left his phone at work.
