I read in 1983 there was the war of bonds, a battle between Roger Moore and Sean Connery: the official Octopussy VS the unofficial Never say never again. And I read the rights battle was more exciting then the two movies (personally i saw the 2 movies in DVD and I prefer Roger's Octopussy).

The Saint Club is not really in a position to endorse anything as such.
My own view is that the Kilmer movie wasn't a bad movie--quite enjoyable
in someways--but it just wasn't the Saint.

And well spotted...the Charterisian omission in the credits was deliberate.
