@xpd - does it include "Never Say Never Again" as that one wasn't owned by MGM

 

 

Nope, not included.

Amazon just bougt MGM so this will be part of the reason why.  I also hear they are making a James Bond inspired reality show in the style of The Amazing Race

I read somewhere a while ago about No Time To Die being released on Prime this month, had hoped that the rest of the bonds would drop too. I was close to buying the Daniel Craig pack on apple for about $50 which I thought was good value, but as its now on prime, no need.

 

I'm assuming they aren't 4k or Atmos?

4k on Prime seems to be a hit or miss affair....  they don't actually "advertise" anything as being 4k unless you go searching for it. Annoying.....

Correct. I have bought all James Craig's Bond in 4K. When you search they show the HD versions first and instead of having the WATCH NOW button they have BUY/RENT options. You then have to go looking for either your library or search again for the versions with the 4K labels. Should post this in the annoying thread.

Out of sheer curiosity, can someone tell me whether the picture shrinks during the opening credits of The Spy Who Loved Me? It does on the Blu-ray and I'm wondering whether they're still using the old master or whether they did a new one.

Can confirm there's no 4K/HDR/Atmos - at least on this year's film, which would surely be the one to have these. I was happy enough with the picture and sound of Casino Royale when watching it last night, especially as I'm not paying extra for it, but would expect more if I was buying/renting the same titles.

Yep, still does; photos below (screenshots aren't possible). Not being a fan of Moore as Bond, this may well be the one and only time I view one of them!

Thanks. Right, same old master then. I'm not missing anything with my Blu-ray box set :)

As James Bond would say "They'll print anything these days"
