If you were a villian would you rather kill agent that will spoil your evil plot or would you rather let him live to see your destruction yet he ends up escaping and foiling your plot. Evil mad men can't be this stupid. |
There needs to be a chance for Bond to survive, otherwise there's no film. But yes, I agree with you, it's infuriating to see all those masterminds just blabbering about their plans to Bond instead of just shooting him. Maybe he's just lucky and the other 00s get the actually competent villains, and that's the reason he's the only one who always survives. That's why I like Goldfinger so much, he actually has a good reason to let Bond live, and if he hadn't tricked Goldfinger, Bond would've been killed. Twice.
