On to Roger Moore

We watched the first mission impossible and no doubt will watch others.

I’m just glad to be out of the talking-animal stage of movie viewing.

This is a real airplane, and that's really Tom Cruise on the outside.

Is that Copper first responding to a passed out pilot?

[LuFins Dad]

@jon-nyc Did you watch Never Say Never Again with Connery?

[Copper]

How could someone not hear of Flint?

I refuse to believe that is possible.

Anyway, Flint is required at some point if you are watching Bond.

Is that the one he did in 83 with the other production company ? If so, not yet. But we will.

If it’s one of the ones he did with Eon then we saw it.

You guys should watch “Our Man Flint” of the Sean Connery era. Great Bond parody and lots of fun. Your boy will like it.

There are two Flint movies, Our Man Flint and In Like Flint.

And one where the books(especially the early ones) are much better than the films, are the Matt Helm series. The movies are kinda Bond parodies, the books are more Ian Fleming meets Mickey Spillane.

Don't give up on talking animals just yet. Guardians of the Galaxy volumes 1 and 2 are a couple of my favorite movies, I suspect you and the kid would enjoy them.

@Loki wow forgot about flint.

The only thing I remember is the ring tone

No we skipped him.

Lazenby's one outing as Bond wasn't all that bad. OHMSS had Dianna Rigg as Bond's girl/wife and Telly Savalas as the arch villain, Blofeld. Lazenby for all his faults is not terrible in the role. Let's face it Connery was a hard act to follow in the lead role no matter who replaced him as Bond.

The story line is also fairly close to the book. It is a bit festive - the story take place around Christmastime - so you might want to cue it up over the holidays.

[jon-nyc]

We might just do that.
