A VIEW TO A KILL - Smersh Pod Review

Join Smersh Pod agents John Rain and Dan Thomas as they share a quiche de cabinet and forensically examine the sheer and utter lunacy that is "A View To A Kill".

[@pyrotechnick420]

I searched online and the line, "A view to a kill," makes sense now. It uses foxhunting lingo because Ian Fleming wrote a short story called From a View to a Kill which was based on a song lyric about fox hunting. "From a find to a check, from a check to a view, from a view to a kill in the morning." A Find is discovering the fox's trail, a Check is when you lose the trail with your bloodhounds, a View is visually spotting the fox, and a Kill is self-explanatory. SO, when Mayday and Walken are in the airship looking at the bay area, and Mayday says, "What a view," Walken is being clever by adding, "To a kill." Walken has spotted the fox which is Silicon Valley and he intends to Kill it, or in this case destroy it by flooding the area. So it's super fucking convoluted but it does actually make sense lol

[@uthertheking]

That's quite clever. Meanwhile, the Swedish subtitles think he says "Tokyo" when spotting San Francisco.

That walken impression is killing me...funniest stuff I’ve heard in a while 😂😂

[@amilombanugo8321]

@@BanyaBat subscribed 😊..still watching the video lol

[@starcrafter13terran]

I imagine walken talks with constant interuptions in how he writes as well: "That walken impression... is killing me...funniest stuff...I've heard in...a while."

[@gregorypowell9020]

I’ve seriously listened to his impression on here of walken like 35 times in a day for two days lol….”I wanna read for it!…..I got the chops.” Kills me every time

[@DanceySteveYNWA]

@@gregorypowell9020 yet we never did get the Zippy and George rendition we were promised. I wonder if they are equally as accomplished impressions.

[@jman7826]

The most exasperated sounding walken of all time

[@TheDeppertLasseVogt]

"Did you sleep well?" "Yes... after I JIZZED!" I died. That was priceless.

[@idiomatika]

That Walken impression makes me cry with laughter. "They're lookin' at the eye, the hair, and the Nazi fuckin' name, and they're thinking...Nazi!"

[@AchtungEnglander]

This video made me cry with laughter. Those Chris Walken impressions are gold

I randomly found this video. I'm pissing myself laughing.

Same. "Goddamnit, JEFF, why...are you....so DETERMINED....to not be in...COGNITO....I TOLD you...g'aaaaaaaw". The Walken impressions are on point, the jabbing at the film film are great, I loved all of it. Did you come courtesy of RLM too?

God! How I wish you guy's had done the script for this film. "How shit do you have to be to get kidnaped by a Zeppelin?"

Possibly one of the greatest things ever created. The house nazi section nearly caused me to shit myself. Bravo.

[@Revelian1982]

I was cleaning the kitchen and emptying the dishwasher whilst watching this and found it thoroughly entertaining. Well done and thank you. You deserve more views than you've got. Subbed.

[@lastrega2968]

Ok the romantic scene with Bond and his driver back to back with Zorin discussing fake names destroyed me 😂

[@Outerwebs]

"When I grow up, I'll know what that means..." I felt the same way about the 'logic' Batman and Robin used to make deductions about clues in the 60s TV show.

[@Kallick]

I felt that about the trading swindle ending of Trading Places. Still don't get it and I even googled it!

[@carlsagan2371]

"You haven't got the CHOPS!" It was at this point, that I realised I wasn't going to make it through the rest without wetting myself.

[@spaceodds1985]

Long time Smershpod listener. Love these videos… John Rain and his fetishistic revulsion of Q’s hands.

[@sgt.tackleberry8752]

I swear I am not lying here, I literally had to take a painkiller because I was in so much pain from laughing while watching this.

[@TheDeppertLasseVogt]

That Chris Walken bit with Dr Karl Mortner was a why I’ve watched this six times in the same day and spat my drink out laughing. Hilarious 😂🤣😆

[@lastrega2968]

Oh my god this is so funny. The idea of Roger Moore being tormented by Grace and Dolph’s noisy dressing room antics after shooting hours of cringe fumbles is hilarious.

[@RaulieGonzo97]

[@yohei72]

Please tell me they did other videos with that Walken impression. Literally screaming and crying laughing; my neighbors are probably worried. It isn't just the great impression, that's good improv dialogue too.

[@geoffelder2236]

Goddammit, if I could do a Walken impression half as good as that, I would ALWAYS do it in day to day life. My wife in particular, wouldn't be annoyed one bit, as I attempt, and usually fail, in my impression, which lighty irritates (but amuses) her. (Her slight exasperation is what makes it funnier for me!) 😜

[@kieranwhite6647]

'I'm gonna find out who you are, let me just boot up Ceefax' fucking killed me...

[@zetetick395]

The George, Zippy and Christopher Walken part had me in genuine fuckin pieces, 🤣🤣 (I guess the only problem with that joke is that you have to be both British AND over 40 to know what the fuck you fellas are all talkin about - kinda narrows the demographic on that one) .......Next week: Allusions about Keith Chegwin and Bagpuss...........................Fuck it, I'll be tuning in .🤣

4:25 Aubergine looks like an older version of Tim Higgins from Half in the Bag, LOL

[@barbershoppodcast]

A popular trope in the 80's was the saying "REAL MEN DON'T EAT QUISHE" as it was deemed poncy and effeminate - the joke is that 007 is ALL MAN therefore would eat one - but call it an omelet - you guys are just too young to get it.

I was 13 when it came out so I kinda grew up with Roger Moore and I have to admit that I still have a soft spot for this one even though I know it's objectively one of the worst Moore Bond films and indeed one of the worst of all Bond films.
