Editor-in-Chief Jack Luke Sharp as we begin our hot Bond summer series with a review of Thunderball.
Yes, this summer we will be spending time with the 007 franchise And today we are definitely starting with an interesting point in the franchise, really transitioning between the classic and sexy Bond of the original few films, and transitioning into more of a campy tone.
This is a great conversation not just about Thunderball, but about the evolution of the Bond franchise in general.
About once a month, we're going to have one of these episodes as we jump through the history of James Bond and the different actors who play him, with today being focused on the legendary Sean Connery.
It's definitely a long episode, definitely maybe a little bit rambly here at the end, but I still think it's very fun.
