Reveal the answer
The Spy Who Loved Me (1977)
Why this is the answer (spoilers)
The Spy Who Loved Me is the 1977 James Bond film starring Roger Moore, with Barbara Bach as Agent XXX and Richard Kiel's debut as Jaws. Its opening ski-jump stunt and the Lotus Esprit submarine are franchise highlights.
The clips lean on scale: Egypt exteriors, the enormous Liparus tanker set and the underwater car are all unmistakable once revealed. Early casino and travel footage could be any Bond, so wait for Jaws or the Lotus. Moore-era quips and the late-70s sheen separate it from the Connery entries in the suggestion list.
