That's pretty much how I felt about the plot of the James Bond movies that used to be shown on network TV when I was a kid (the Sean Connery and Roger Moore era). There was always some evil genius trying to do something nefarious, but as far as I could tell the reason to watch was to see Bond repeatedly use crazy technology to escape from some bad situation.
