High Points: the sword fight between Graves and Bond, the giant space weapon, the fight on the airplane, the verbal sparring in Cuba.What I Would Have Changed: 1. There is no real explanation of why Graves cannot sleep anymore. The dream machine is a cool idea, since if you don't dream you go nuts, but it also strikes me that it would make a far more effective torture/interrogation device. Under-used.2. The plot point with the scorpions early on. Later in the movie, Graves should have tried to use a scorpion to kill Bond in some way; Bond is of course now immune because of his horrible experience in Korea, and survives. 3. I really thought they'd use this: it just shows how old I am <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> When they mentioned that they had a space device, and that there were diamonds coming from no-where, I thought that either Graves had managed to take control of the diamond sattilite from Diamonds Are Forever or managed to retrieve it and recover all those diamonds. That, I think, would have been a pretty cool idea.</blockquote>
