James Bond films

[bridgenut]

Wonder if anyone can help my next door neighbour out . She thinks that the film " Never say never again " is not an official Bond movie as it is not in the boxed set , but sold separately . Can anyone confirm whether it is or if not why it isn't . I have said that I didn't know , but I might know someone who does . She thinks that maybe a different company produced that film . Many thanks .

It's a remake of Thunderball.
The film is considered 'unofficial' because it is not part of the Bond film franchise from EON Productions and United Artists, despite its currently being handled by the official film series distributor, MGM, who acquired the distribution rights in 1997 after their acquisition of Orion Pictures.
My son has all the boxed sets and this not amongst them.
