Octopussy
"We do have one lead, Minister. Property of a Lady." ~ Bond After last week's slightly disappointing Bond movie, I wasn't exactly looking forward to Friday movie night. Either Bond movie number 12 was better, or I've lowered my standards. Octopussy was better than I expected. This movie was made in 1983. Neither the British…Read more Octopussy
For Your Eyes Only
"Goodbye, Mr. Bond. I trust you had a pleasant trip." As major movie releases are starting to be postponed into 2021, we debated about taking a mini respite in our Bond movie marathon. Burt, our tuxedo and most 007 kitty, thought that would be offensive to tuxedo kitties world wide so we're continuing on with…Read more For Your Eyes Only
Moonraker
He's on his last leg, sir. ~ Money Penny Now that we're firmly into autumn, we debated this weekend if we should forgo the Bond movie for Monster Mayhem. This week, we decided to start with a Bond film and finish with Monster Mayhem provided there was time for a double feature. Movie 11 is…Read more Moonraker
The Man with the Golden Gun
I sure am, boy! Ever hear of Evel Knievel? ~ Bond This Friday night between smoky conditions making it unhealthy to be outside and COVID, the only thing left was watching movies inside. It was perfect for Bond movie number nine The Man with a Golden Gun. This movie aired in 1974. You can still…Read more The Man with the Golden Gun
Boyz N the Woods and Live and Let Die
Don't worry darling, it's just a hat, belonging to a small-headed man of limited means, who lost a fight with a chicken. ~ Live and Let Die Friday night of a three day weekend is the best feeling. The entire weekend is before you full of hope and possibility. We took the opportunity to have…Read more Boyz N the Woods and Live and Let Die
Diamonds are Forever
Thank you very much. I was out walking my rat and lost my way. ~ Diamonds are Forever This Friday was movie number 7 in our 007 adventure. Sean Connery is back in Diamonds are Forever. Time is marching on. You can feel the 70's vibe in the theme song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwbEuzJCnqI It was a little…Read more Diamonds are Forever
On Her Majesties Secret Service
"There's a saying in England: Where there's smoke, there's fire." Friday night movies we try to make a fun event. Watching the Bond films has been interesting. On Her Majesties Secret Service is the next film in our 007 journey. This is the first time we have different actors play Bond and Blofeld. The British…Read more On Her Majesties Secret Service
You Only Live Twice
Happiness is a mysterious thing, to be found somewhere between too little and too much. ~ Ruskin Bond The past few days have been extremely hot in the PNW. I'm blaming the heat on my slow post about this movie. The next Bond movie featured is You Only Live Twice. To me that implies Bond…Read more You Only Live Twice
The Vast of Night and Goldfinger
Fay Crocker: So the train travels between two thousand and five thousand miles per hour in these tubes, all across the country. That’s how it’s all going to be. It’s called vacuum tube transportation. And all these tubes, they crisscross all of the world, so we’re going to sit in cars that run through the tubes,…Read more The Vast of Night and Goldfinger
