There's more to hate about OHMSS than just Lazenby. Bond in a kilt and frills? No. Telly Savalas? No. Bond's cover story as a geneologist? No. The credit sequence, which goes out of its way to remind the audience that Lazenby isn't Connery? No. The evil plot? That was passe` when Fu Manchu tried the same scheme in the 1930s.
Mind you, I love Diana Rigg. I love the ending of the movie (though I think it was a mistake for Bond to get married in order to facilitate it), and it's John Barry's best score. But it's a maddening film.
