In this episode of The Other Half podcast, the boys and HoneyBees watched the final Roger Moore movie, A View to a Kill! Roger Moore would have gone out with a bang, but he's completely overshadowed by Mayday, played by Grace Jones. Even the actual Bond girl in this movie is but a BLIP in the marketing artwork. Grace Jones is just that good. Pair her with Christopher Walken and you've got yourself one of the best pairs of villains you can find in a Bond film. Well, at least since Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd!But how is it actually as a movie? Is the plot good? Are the action scenes compelling? We get into all of this in more detail in one of our longest episodes for the podcast EVER!Don't forget to join our Discord for movie nights and additional podcast discussions!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-other-half/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this episode of The Other Half podcast, the boys watched an unofficial Bond movie starring Sean Connery! He's back and showing that he can still keep up with the latest James Bond, Roger Moore. This movie is a remake of Thunderball and is going for a much different tone than what the EON films were trying to go for. Gone are a lot of Bond's signature trademarks, including an opening of a dude walking into a gun barrel. But what we're left with instead is a movie directed by Irvin Kershner, who made The Empire Strikes Back. Is this set up to be one of the best James Bond films?Don't forget to join our Discord for movie nights and additional podcast discussions!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-other-half/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this episode of The Other Half podcast, the boys watched two different halves of (sigh) Octopussy. It's time for the worst-named James Bond film we've ever seen. But it does have the circus in it and feels like an Indiana Jones movie at times!Bond is sent to figure out what's up with these fake Faberge Eggs and how they are connected to Russia wanting to take a land grab in Europe. Ethan also struggles with his memory and his notes about how a particular 00 agent dies. This feels like the second to last Roger Moore film in more ways than one, mostly the lack of budget. The 80s were crazy.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-other-half/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this episode of The Other Half podcast, the boys watched two different halves of For Your Eyes Only! The movie where the Bond folks realized you gotta reduce the scope of your movie after going to space.Ethan and Mike dive into the 12th Bond movie, which is all about diving underwater, Greek artifacts and Topal! An evil plot to collect the Automatic Targeting Attack Communicator (ATAC) from getting into the hands of the KGB. Lots of great little details in this movie with an amazingly cool set piece for the final battle.

In this episode of The Other Half podcast, the boys watched two different halves of Moonraker! The movie where the producers saw how successful Star Wars was, and wanted one of those.Ethan and Mike are joined by Chris, AKA lvl_hed or figure_head, depending on the day, who is a massive James Bond fan with a planet-sized amount of knowledge about each movie. Chris suggested this movie because it's peak James Bond. It certainly is the highest altitude James Bond. Bond is tasked with tracking down missing space shuttles made by billionaire Elon Musk Hugo Drax, which leads to an epic space adventure! It even has a favorite henchman, Jaws, returning once again.Chris was right, this movie has it all.Stop Getting Bond WrongDon't forget to join our Discord for movie nights and additional podcast discussions!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-other-half/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this episode of The Other Half podcast, the boys watched two different halves of The Spy Who Loved Me, a movie about a villain trying to monopolize the underwater city industry!Roger Moore accidently teams up with *sigh* Agent XXX from Russia to stop these nuclear subs from being stolen.

Or will Bond be suave as heck and smooth it all over?This movie also features one of the coolest Bond gadgets ever: the car submarine.Don't forget to join our Discord for movie nights and additional podcast discussions!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-other-half/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this episode of The Other Half podcast, the boys watched two different halves of Live and Let Die, which finally stars a new Bond, Roger Moore.Live and Let Die is about voodoo and New Orleans and all the things you wonder why British Bond is over here helping. But it does have one of the craziest villain deaths of all time, plus Crocodiles and Alligators! Roger Moore is an interesting Bond and is playing it completely differently than how Sean Connery played him. It's an interesting twist and it seems like we have a lot more movies ahead with him!
