What about DivX/XviD?
VCDs had broad hardware support, and were more mainstream.
I used to travel around Southeast Asia a bit, and whenever I was in Hong Kong, I'd load up on VCD movies at mainstream stores like HMV.
I still have VCD copies of The Incredibles and On Her Majesty's Secret Service I bought at HMV.
I may be misremembering, but the only thing in the bond franchise I can think of that is at all related to the royals is the title of one of the films (On Her Majesty's Secret Service). I guess he's a government employee, but other than that I can't think of anything else in the films that is connected to the royal family.
That's how you can tell none of them are the real Count de Bleuchamp.
(This is a plotline from the Bond movie On Her Majesty's Secret Service.)
Here's a fun Fake TED Talk on why On Her Majesty's Secret Service is both often overlooked, and also quite possibly the best Bond movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ac8JWzyNI6c
Agree; Lazenby is vastly underrated and in fact he played Bond in what I consider the best film in the series, On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
On Her Majesty's Secret Service is a movie. OHMS (On Her Majesty's Service) meaning government business is a thing. And indeed a formality of language based on tradition. The former was a joke on the latter. It is most certainly not a real thing beyond the movie.
