Moonraker Movie Review - BONUS!!
Ian and Chris take a little (too much) time to reflect on the 1978 film and Roger Moore's portrayal of Bond. Once again the movie steers well clear of any plot relating to the book, but maybe for good reason this time? Either way, Bond evades assassination attempts, gets laid, travels the globe and beyond. We also learn how to survive a sky dive without a parachute.
Be sure to listen through all of Season 3 (and why not Season 1&2 as well, you deserve it) to some provide context and look for Season 4 - Diamonds are Forever.
