Ep. 62 Bond In The 80s: Part I

From crossbow bolt-ruined dives to detective-dispatching
poison-tipped butterflies, the final run of Roger Moore as
Commander James Bond was infused with the thrilling drive of 1980's
action cinema. We welcome back John Arminio to tackle this
transitional era of the 007 franchise: Moore's last three movies
(For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy and A View to a Kill) as well as the
rival Bond film Never Say Never Again, starring Sean Connery and
released by Warner Brothers to go head-to-head with Eon's
long-running franchise. In this episode of our film-by-film
examination of the entire Bond series, you'll learn the identity of
Arminio's favorite henchman, the nickname of Patick Macnee's jockey
father, why Kevin McClory's cash-grab of a competing Bond
movie was a blessing in disguise and much more! This is Part One of
"James Bond in the 80's." Part Two will deal with the Timothy
Dalton-starring films that wrapped up the decade. The Pink Smoke
