    They use marginal, outdated, unreliable technologies and over-elaborate, egotistical plans and tactics.

    Christopher Walken is using some sort of silly airship as his operations base and planning to flood the San Andras fault and Silicon Valley, or something like that.

    What's up with them? Could they not use dirty bombs,well defended lairs and just shoot Bond?

    then there would only have been 1 40 minute film in the 60's.
    would be hard to make a series if bond was outsmarted & died in little over half an hour

    Because it more fun when they strap him to a table underneath a high power lazer cutter, and come out with a line like,

    'Nooo Mr Bond. I expect you to Diiieeee!'

    Get away, really? :pac:

    Or the writers could have upped their game, made the villains better and made him better still.

    Before killing Bond you must tell him your plans in every detail.

    You must then leave the room and give him a chance to escape

    A .45 in the head would have solved all this

    Presumably, based on feelings of low self esteem and failing to value themselves, Bond villains didn't want to succeed, hence the obviously flawed plans, destined to come asunder.
