Recently, @DrJamba discovered that I've only seen a couple of the newer Bond films and was so distressed by this news that we decided to watch all of them. In order. From Connery to Craig.
We rented the first 3 digitally, then sat down and worked out the cheapest way to rent the rest from the various subscriptions we have (a spreadsheet was made, it was glorious), only to discover that it's actually cheaper to just buy the bluray collection 😮
and so, to amuse mainly myself but also possibly you(??!) during lockdown, I present a series of one-tweet reviews of the James Bond films:
🐚 Dr. No
@DrJamba's decided not to tell me when those certain super-famous lines/scenes are coming up, so seeing Ursula Andress appear in THAT bikini was pretty fun 😀 Honey's whole backstory was surprisingly dark and immediately glossed over and Quarrel deserved better 😭
💌 From Russia with Love
Kerim Bay was BY FAR my favourite character in this one, what a dude. Also surprised that a film this old had a cold open and wondered how common that was back then 🤔
🐱 Goldfinger
There's a lot going on in this one! JB blows stuff up, kicks some butt, gets 2 sisters horribly killed... and just when I'd stopped laughing about the towelling romper Bond wears on the ship, the film throws the name Pussy Galore at me 😂
