James Bond is BACK on the podcast this week, as Cooper and Nolan take a close look at DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER!
Widely considered one of the very worst movies in the history of the franchise, Sean Connery's return to the 007 role was anything but triumphant. IN FACT... with the campiness dialed up to 11, this one feels more like a Roger Moore Bond movie (or like the old Batman TV show).
Maybe that's why the guys feel like Connery is phoning in his performance, or maybe he was just uncomfortable with the sexy bodyguards with cartoon names, villainous henchmen who might be more than friends, and drag-wearing evil "genius" he's up against.
Either way, there's plenty of questionable content to cover; this episode (featuring a beer from Muddy York Brewing Co.) is a sparkling example of a big-budget movie making mistake!
