This cut sequence from Diamonds Are Forever (1971) showing the power of Blofeld’s space laser is absolutely hilarious. Adding to the camp of the movie, this seemingly quickly put together, crude sequence looks to be more of an inspiration for an Austin Powers movie rather than a flex of a Bond villain’s power.

Hehehe one of the funnier James Bond GIFs from Diamonds Are Forever (1971).
This BAM! moment from Diamonds Are Forever (1971) always reminded me of the old onomatopoeia words from fights in the live-action Batman television show from the 1960s.
It doesn’t involve a fight with Sean Connery’s Bond, but only serves to convey Bond’s quick departure from his phone call with Q when Bond realizes he has to cover his tracks with a newly escaped Peter Franks. While Bond congratulates Q on his successful fingerprint scam gadget, it’s kind of neat to check out what’s going on in the background at Q Branch. It looks like one of the few instances where we see a Q Branch Bond car – in this case some sort of an Aston Martin – getting serviced (they’re installing its stinger missiles).
And it’s funny because in the next scene, Bond *does* fistfight Peter Franks ithat could get away with using some BAMs! POWs! or THWACKs! Oh well…
