Hey, wait a minute. Yesterday the movie said that James Bond would return in For Your Eyes Only! This is most certainly not For Your Eyes Only! Well, I guess that isn’t a bad thing, because (spoiler alert), I actually like this movie more than For Your Eyes Only. Which I think it kind […]
When I was first planning this James Bond project, and I knew that I was going to get around to doing a Film Library on one of them. Because I really enjoy the novels of Ian Fleming. They’re often extremely problematic from a 2017 perspective, but if you […]
Roger Moore’s tenure as James Bond started off with a hell of a bang. I don’t really need to harp on more about Live and Let Die, since I’ve now written two full articles about it, but needless to say, it set a pretty high bar for Moore. Especially after […]
So this is kind of odd. I’ve only discussed two James Bond movies on the site before this project, Spectre when it came out, and Live and Let Die. I kind of considered not writing up Live and Let Die and just rerunning that article, but since that one didn’t […]

After yesterday’s slight disdain for Thunderball, I was looking forward to getting back into the swing of things with today’s entry, You Only Live Twice. Far from one of my favorites of the series, You Only Live Twice is at least a more tightly paced and fun Bond adventure than […]
I would say that it’s quite clear by now that I really love James Bond. It’s a franchise that I’ve been obsessed with for quite some time, and one that I love, warts and all. However, that doesn’t mean that I like all the films equally. There’s certainly […]
When a series has been around for as long as James Bond has, there’s almost certainly going to be quite a bit of influence on popular culture. There are certain big franchises that I have actually barely experienced myself, but know quite a bit about because of what’s […]
When it comes to a franchise like James Bond, it can be pretty hard to pick a favorite. It’s a series that has spanned 24 films, so there’s certainly a lot of choose from. You can figure out who you favorite Bond is, your favorite theme song, your […]
