Nostalgia-fest time for those lucky enough to remember " The Man from Uncle " movies ( or cut together TV shows, a-hem ).
This is the title sequence from " The Spy in the Green Hat "
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCDiVv8W9Co
It's so groovy!
* The super-cool version of the theme song from Jerry Goldsmith.
* The stop and start visuals were pure UNCLE.
* No messing about - straight into the fistfighting!
* The thugs wear hats - how cool is that?
* Robert Vaughn was ill that day - it's obviously a stuntman for all the action!
* It's hard to think that Duckie from NCIS was ever this mobile! Watch him give that bald guy a pasting at 0.34
* Watch the soft suspension on the villains car at 1.04
* Coolest run ever at 1.07. They mastered long before Steve Austin. Thats not Vaughn he he!
* Back Projection rules at 1.20
* Pre CGI effects at 1.57
Yeah, Baby! |

Did you see that NCIS episode where Abbey wonders what Ducky must have looked like when he was young and Gibbs answers "Illya Kuryakin"! HA!
Yes!  I also like the way they include Michael Wetherleys Sean Connery impersonations.

He must be - my sisters always used to go a bit giggly when he was on. |
