Movie Plotline

The World Is Not Enough is a James Bond film, about 007 going on the hunt of an adversary which of whom is a very worthy opponent. Renard the Fox, is the name; and he is a very troublesome terrorist.

The first confrontation of Bond and one of Renard's leading soldiers is in a Swiss Bank house, in Spain while looking for information on the death of 0015. He meets Guilleta, the cigar girl who is actually working for Renard. The rendezvouis ends when a sniper (Renard) begins shooting in the windows..and Bond escapes alive.

What makes Renard so much of an adversary, is that he has lost all feeling; when Agent 009 put a bullet into his brain executionary style. He tried to kill Renard with some luck; the bullet stopped inside Renard's medulla oblingata, the part of the brain that controlls feeling and control. When he lost the feeling of touch, Renard became stronger; while it killed him as it still continued to burrow deeper into his skull...

Elektra King, daughter of the famous man who brought King Enterprises as an oil empire inherits the company, after a bomb attack on MI6, where her father is killed. She now is supposedly sought after by Renard, and the only man that can protect her, according to M; is James Bond, 007.

A boat chase on the Thames by Bond in Q's fishing boat, going after the bomber at MI6 reveals that Guiletta was working for Renard; and Bond, when trying to go after her was hung up and thrown off an exploding balloon, and then supposedly put out of combat; that was, until Dr. Warmflash cleared him and gave him a clean bill of health and added that he had alot of stammina.

Q meanwhile, had retired in favor of a new man; R. Bond and him exchanged goodbye's, and Q gave him a last piece of advice before he left. "I've always tried to teach you two things; first, never let them see you bleed." "And the second?" "Always have an escape plan."

Bond, after traveling to Baku, meets the infamous Elektra and observes her company. After a few chases, such as the parasailers from hell, Bond and Elektra become close, as lovers. And, they fall in love. That's when Elektra's quote comes into play: "There is no point in living, if you can't feel alive."

Bond meets an old friend, Valentien Zukovsky at his casino in Baku, and finds that Elektra is there. King quietly "hands" Zukovsky one million dollars without even flinching at a point, and Bond has to figure out why....

Bond decides to investigate, while leaving Elektra alone in bed one night. He disguises as a nuclear physisist, and stowes away to a russian nuclear research silo, where he meets the ever beautiful, Dr. Christmas Jones - but also meets the ever resorceful, and downright evil Renard in the bunker area. "One tires of being executed." smirks Renard quietly to Bond after Bond is about to execute him. That's when he hears those words "There is no point in living, if you can't feel alive."

Bond's identity is discovered, and after a firefight in the bunker area, Bond and Christmas are trapped, as an explosion begins to rock the area. The two escape after a few moments, and that's when Bond notices there is a bomb missing...

M comes to Baku, in order to look after Elektra herself, believing that 007 did not have the situation in hand at all. She could be far from the truth, and did not realize she had stepped into Elektra's deadly trap.

Elektra's oil company is rigged for destruction when a bomb goes shooting through a pipeline..and it is up to 007, and Dr. Jones to stop it. They race down the pipeline at speeds well over 90 m.p.h; and hoping to catch up to the bomb..try to defuse it as well. "Do you know how to disarm a bomb?" "Yeah, but never going at 80 m.p.h." "Life's full of small challanges." Were the words they exchanged through the whole ordeal.

M and Elektra silently watched, as Bond and Elektra let the bomb go off...and Elektra, thinking they were dead, quietly began taking M as a hostage.

Knowing that Elektra was with Renard, Bond revisits a friend at his caviar factory. Valentien Zukovsky, seeing that Bond had entered only said "Can't you say hello, like a normal person?" Bond merely quipped and Christmas, hearing helicopter engines, walked out to see a helicopter, with motorized blades attatched. Bond, seeing this, ordered Zukovsky and Jones to run while he combatted it. They did, and after minuites of fighting, the caviar factory was destroyed, along with the BMW Z8, and the helicopter. While the only words that Zukovsky said were "The insurance company will never believe this!!"

After the brief rendezvois with Zukovsky, along with meeting his near-death experience, Bond finds Renard and Elektra's hideout...and storms it.

He frees M...and goes after Elektra, before being imprisoned in an indian torture chair...where the wheel of pain quietly cracked his neck slowly. In disappointment she quietly told him "I could've given you the world." He merely responded, "The World, is not enough."

Zukovsky came storming in - and Elektra, in shooting him took him to the ground. There, Zukovsky produced a gun in his cane, and with his final moments, shot of the lock on the chair, freeing Bond.

Elektra was chased by Bond, up the winding stairs, to the tops, where she exclaimed to him "You can't shoot me! You'd miss me!"

Bond cornered her, and shot her, in the heart while exclaiming "I never miss." But - he failed to see M, looking in the room when he shot her, therefore not being able to know why M acted so remorceful for the death of an enemy.

James Bond and Christmas had one chance to get Renard; in the submarine. They dove down, as Renard prepared to destroy Istanbul...and they began to fight inside of the sub...as it sank to the bottom of the Black Sea.

Bond impaled Renard with a pole, and escaped with Christmas, where they spent a romantic night in Turkey, with only themselves, and an MI6 satalite watching as they made love in the moon light... "I've always wanted to have Christmas in Turkey."
