97. ARCHIVE EPISODE (2015): Bond Part 2 - The Blofeld Years (1967-1971)
Originally recorded and published in 2015 for our former podcast, Filmwerk. Please excuse our less-than-stellar audio quality efforts back then!
With Bond in the news again, and in the run up to our 2025 Bond update episode coming later this month, we’ve decided to reach way back into the depths of our archives and resuscitate one of our classic filmography review series’, our nine-part, complete James Bond movie retrospective, originally released back in 2015 to coincide with the release of Spectre (2015), plus a single-episode, stand-alone return in 2021 for a review of No Time to Die (2021).
On part 2, Steven and Benjamin continue dissecting the Bond film series in chronological fashion to discuss (most of) the classic Blofeld appearances in order, starting with a detour away from Eon Produced entries in the series to share their thoughts on the widely lambasted, David Niven fronted Casino Royale (1967). Other films discussed are You Only Live Twice (1967), On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969) and Diamonds Are Forever (1971).
