Description:

Before Star Wars, there was Bond. James Bond. It is a film franchise that has inspired everyone in in the industry from Steven Spielberg to Christopher Nolan to Rian Johnson. Eight actors have (unofficially) played the character over its almost sixty years in existence. And there is another one coming out this April. So what better time for the Binge Movie Aftertaste to gear up and cover a franchise that has been requested for years. Myself, Adam, and Matt are going to fire through a gun barrel the entire 26 film franchise, cultivating in a review of Cary Fukunaga’s No Time To Die, which is being heralded as Daniel Craig’s final bow as the character.

Sean Connery was adamant that despite the major success of You Only Live Twice, he was done playing the James Bond character forever. Therefore, producers found their new Bond, this time in a chocolate commercial. George Lazenby was next to don the tux for 1969’s On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. A movie that is either loved or hated, depending on which Bond fans you ask. But what about us? Listen in as we dissect the much debated film, and wonder why Lazenby was a one and done taker of the role.

Then, listen to us as we talk about how Connery pulled the biggest ‘fooled you’ moment of the series so far and once again played Bond in 1971’s Diamonds Are Forever, the first Bond entry of the 70s. Does he act like he did before?
