Odd Job is supposedly taking the FBI agent to the airport. Instead, he shoots him and then has the car with his body crushed into a small cube. How is it that some of him didn’t squeeze out like toothpaste? This is important in case there’s a remake and the future director is among us.
If any of the dead guy did leak out, it would mix with the gasoline, coolant, oil, and hydraulic fluid that would also be released when crushing a car. I’m not sure the bits of dead guy would be distinguishable amidst the general ooze.
What I never got is why bother doing all that why didn’t Goldfinger just gas him along with the rest of the mobsters
There’s a lot of things wrong with that scene. or Goldfinger in general.
You can’t crush an engine block that small. And yet, he expects to get the gold out. I guess and bits 'o guy will burn off during the melting.
I think that was just a disposable car. The Rolls Royce was made of gold.
Solo was paid with gold. A bar? IIRC. Goldfinger wanted that back.
Though why Odd Job didn’t just take it and save the trouble, I guess that’s the Rule Of Cool.
Nitpick: He wasn’t in the FBI. He was a gangster who thought it was crazy to try robbing Fort Knox and tried to wiggle out of Goldfinger’s scheme.
If the story were set in Russia, he’d have been pushed out a window on the 20th floor of a skyscraper.
Yeah, it’s definitely a fool that goes looking for logic in a Bond movie. Admittedly, the movie is actually less crazy than the Goldfinger novel, for no other reason than that, in the novel, Auric Goldfinger really is planning to steal all the gold out of Fort Knox. The producers thought this so far-fetched that they not only dropped the idea from the film, but wrote in the scene where Bond points out the sheer infeasibility of trying to do this.
What would’ve happened if he’d said ‘no’ to Max Zorin?
He’d have been shown the door and told to kindly wait outside.
Well, that is a shame. I was going to say that the guy didn’t ooze out because the FBI have procedures to stop any leaks but you have ruined that.
