REVIEW TO A KILL Episode 10 - The Spy Who Loved Me

James and Tom (sporting an interesting new look) activate the BondBoard and discuss The Spy Who Loved Me. Submarines, metal teeth, brightly coloured ski-clothing are among the topics scrutinised in this jam-packed episode.

re: Stromberg, per the movie novelization by Christopher Wood, he has a physical deformity where he has webbed hands (continuing the aquatic theme)

What a legend, Tom 'Roger' Scriven.👏 I would like to make a request that Tom adopts his favourite Bond look from all future actors, (Dalton, Brosnan and Craig). Now, that would be special. BTW, Mrs Wallis was highly impressed with the beige suit and brown loafers, it's an age thing 😂😂

We’ll see what we can do. The Roger suit and shoes were a miraculous find by my mates in a charity shop in Portishead. Glad to hear Mrs Wallis was impressed. It makes it all worthwhile.

Thanks lads, great review, I’m going to say it, I think it’s your best, or should I say “it’s the biggest, it’s the best, it’s bond,and beyond” love those bond marketing boys. Love threads watch, a smorgasbord in the Moore era, safari jackets are due a come back, it’s gonna happen you know. I saw The Spy Who Loved Me at the Classic Cinema in Blackburn, smuggled in my cassette recorder and recorded it with all the audience reaction on C120 tape (had to flip the tape half way) Rogers best Bond, although i started to think he was looking old, well he did to a 14 year old. That pre title sequence, and the audience reaction was truly amazing when the parachute opened, I still remember it, as it was a time when such things were a genuine surprise pre social media leaks. Music was super cool. I love this movie, it was Roger’s favourite of his bond movies too.

Cheers Robert! Safari jacket comeback, you say? We can make this happen! Once again, I’m envious of your cinema experience. Would have loved to witness that. Unfortunately I wasn’t born until 3 years later.

Fantastic video as always gents. Little recommendation for you if you haven’t done them. Watch the Dr Phibes films starring Vincent Price and various Bond alumni (many in here including Naomi and Stuart Bingham). It’s tonally in line with the 60’s Batman but some very elaborate deaths.

[@oxfordjames]

P.s. Can’t wait to see what Tom makes of the next film. Think it’s going to be off the scale.

[@LuxuryTedium]

Cheers James. 60’s Batman vibe + Bond alumni + elaborate deaths = Right up my street. Will have to check these out.

Also saw James sly yawn when Tom was doing his story summary

[@LuxuryTedium]

That was extremely unprofessional of him. I’ll be having words, don’t you worry.

[@fidgejufter]

That wig is utterly undetectable. I've met you and I still don't know that's a wig.

[@LuxuryTedium]

Only the most eagle-eyed viewer will notice some of my actual hair escaping at the back.

🎶 Glang, glangalangalangalangalangalang, glangalang. Nobody does it better, opening score, disco-esque. Nobody does it, quite the way they do. John and Marvin are the best. A nuclear submarine, stolen by Stromberg, whose henchman has metal tee-ee-ee-eeth. But 007, and Agent Triple X, beat him with the galloping sauseeege. Glangalang. Nobody does it better, makes me feel sad for podcasts. James's Bond knowledge, and Tom's music treats. Innuendos and the gags. 🎶

[@LuxuryTedium]

Hahaha. Thanks ONP!
