Look who came crawling back. Uh...by that I mean the producers handing Sean Connery a record-breaking check to return to the role of James Bond in 1971's Diamonds Are Forever. Has Sean aged gracefully? Has Bond? Has the film? Join us this week to hear our answers to these questions and more. Talking points include: questionable representation, drag Blofeld, butt diamonds, and the very concept of brothers.

After making it all the way through the Connery Bonds (not really), we stop and make time to think about what we've seen.
Is Bond...likeable? Who's the best villain? Which movie should you start somebody on? We talk about our impressions of Connery's Bond, then run a lightning round of our bests and worsts of the era. Tweet at @bondwesharecast to tell us how smart and insightful we are (or yell at us).

Welcome to Japan! Sean Connery makes one final* appearance as James Bond to track down the head of S.P.E.C.T.R.E. and stop him from eating any more spaceships. No really, that's the plan. Join us this week to hear our thoughts on the proper temperature of sake, ninja school, and the end of the original batch of Bonds.

Nazi gold. Lasers. Heroin flavored bananas. Colonel Sanders. Goldfinger has it all. This week, we're covering possibly the most iconic Bond movie ever. It's the *gold* standard, if you will. Join us for the good, the bad, and the boring (spoiler alert: Adam writes these descriptions) of the third James Bond movie.

It's the second Bond movie and we're gonna immediately toss the formula out the window. Well, Adam and Allison aren't, but this is a very different kind of Bond movie than Dr. No. SPECTRE kicks off some good old fashioned espionage, and James Bond has to show up and not get murdered for 2 hours. Sit back and enjoy listening to us rave about watching a movie that's actually fun!

On the week of its release, Adam and Allison watched the 25th Bond film, No Time to Die, and discussed their gut reactions and impressions of the film. This is a spoiler-free discussion, so don't be afraid to take a peek (listen). There's a brief section at the end with more details, but nothing major and it's heavily warned ahead of time.
We'll fully review and recap this movie when we get to it on our watch-through, but until then reach out to us at @bondwesharecast on twitter to let us know your thoughts and takes!

Hey, it's the first James Bond movie! Adam and Allison crack open the series debut and ask the tough questions:
Is Honey Ryder a queen? (yes)
Is Strangways a good character name? (not really)
Is Dr. No a good movie? (well...spoilers)
(Don't worry, Allison has messed with some microphone settings and won't always sound like this.)
