12 Things You Learn Rewatching The World Is Not Enough
1. The Final Gag Is Deliciously Corny
It's often joked about that Denise Richards' nuclear physicist was only named Christmas Jones so the writers could have Bond drop that infamous closing line, "I thought Christmas only comes once a year." And it's probably true.
While many still groan at the punny, innuendo-laden line, it's clearly shot through with a certain self-awareness and feels about one step away from having Brosnan literally turn to the camera and wink.
Much like the famed "I think he's attempting re-entry" line from Moonraker, it's surprisingly vulgar even for the standards of the Bond series. However, it brings with it a cheekiness that also makes it hard not to laugh at (even if you might be embarrassed at yourself for doing so).
