James Bond (film)/YMMV

Adaptation Displacement: And how. Pretty ironic considering that the novels are some of the best selling books in history.
Ensemble Darkhorse:
- Jaws.
- The Judi Dench take on M is easily the most memorable version of the character and has received gradually more screen time as her time in the role has continued. Notably her version of M survived the full continuity reboot into Casino Royale.
- Wai Lin has her own fanbase. They were even considering a sequel where she returned.
Franchise Original Sin: Everything that went wrong with the series pre-reboot was in evidence in mild form as early as Goldfinger. This is "original sin" in more than one sense, as all those things were inherent to the series' character pre-reboot -- enough so that the films with Daniel Craig simply don't feel like James Bond films to some viewers. It runs the other way as well, though not as drastically -- Dr. No feels closer to Quantum of Solace than Goldfinger in some respects.
Memetic Outfit: The tuxedo. Also, to a far lesser extent, the duck hat.
Memetic Sex God: He's James freakin' Bond. Come on.
Values Dissonance: Instead of spending all day here, let's just say "Early Bond" + "Women" (note that the books have other value issues as well, but the women are most prominent). Roger Moore even looks uncomfortable attempting to imitate such works in The Man with the Golden Gun.
Villain Decay: Blofeld.
Wangst: Dalton's Bond.
