I needed one more live tweet to complete my full set of 23 James Bond live tweet digests. This one slipped through the cracks the first time around. Not so this time. Fitting perhaps because #Thunderball was the first live tweet on the initial #Bond_age_ run for which people actually showed up. It was my self-proclaimed kill episode. If nobody tweeted with me, I was going to stop the live-tweets altogether and just focus on my essays. 20+ episodes later, we’re still going. Thanks, everybody!
SHARKS! AND LARGOS! AND DISCO VOLANTES! AND CLAUDINE AUGER!!!! INITIATE MISSION!!

…and time to do battle! (Yes, underwater. No you don’t get to come out. What’s the fun if you come out of the water. It’ll be slow-ish, but we’ll speed it up, like the shark. No, you fight just like above the water, except more slowly. Yes, you can shoot. Not guns. Harpoons. Yes, harpoons. We’ll speed this up too. I don’t know… just do it. We’re paying you, that’s why.)…
@ThatAndyRoss This would’ve been much better with G.I. Joe color coded laser beams. You know, just because. #TBall — Tim Romines (@TimRomines76) July 18, 2013
@30hertzrumble Yes. Yes he did. The most boringly delivered pick up line in the history of mankind. #VanNutterSucks #TBall — Tim Romines (@TimRomines76) July 18, 2013
…yeah, I don’t know why this guy was leaving a trail of yellow behind him…

The “007” theme is one Barry’s best pieces, IMO. #TBall — Andy Ross (@ThatAndyRoss) July 18, 2013
@30hertzrumble That’s Connery’s favorite pick up line. #TBall — Andy Ross (@ThatAndyRoss) July 18, 2013
@TimRomines76 Well done with the obligatory #SHARKNADO reference. #TBall

Only Bond film to win Oscar for special effects. 1966 Academy Awards honored John Stearns for “Best Effects, Special Visual Effects” #TBall

…maybe next time, let’s not use “experimental” explosives…
Overseen by John Stears, the explosion (using experimental rocket fuel!) of Disco Volante blew out windows 20-30 miles away in Nassau #TBall

Love the background sea projection as Largo maneuvers a boat at Mach 2. #TBall — James David Patrick (@30hertzrumble) July 18, 2013
…and Claudine Auger and some random dude save the day by shooting Emilio Largo in the back! Hooray!… so wait, who’s this schmo?…
“I don’t know but he helped me.” is my absolute favorite line in #TBall. So f’ing random. #TBall — James David Patrick (@30hertzrumble) July 18, 2013
@ThatAndyRoss That raft needs an enema. #TBall

@krissy_myers Was the first Bond soundtrack I picked up on #vinyl. A fantastic score. And the first where Barry really becomes Barry. #TBall

@TimRomines76 @krissy_myers I actually prefer Milquetoast Leiter in #Goldfinger to VAN NUTTER BUTTER LEITER. #TBall — James David Patrick (@30hertzrumble) July 18, 2013
@krissy_myers Best part is when Bond sucker punches VAN NUTTER in the stomach. #TBall I laugh and laugh and laugh… — James David Patrick (@30hertzrumble) July 18, 2013
