Episode 25: Dr. No

Corinne and Tim face their toughest mission yet as they come up against Dr. No, the original James Bond film from 1962. We'll discuss the film's blatant sexism and racism, its role in establishing the formula for the rest of the Bond film series, and how the exploits of Bond reflect England's role in international affairs in the 1960s. Warning: Contains spoilers, explicit language, and bad Sean Connery impersonations. Also please be advised that in discussing the movie we do reference a sexual assault brought up as a plot point in the film.

Here in our downtime we expound on the perception of Ewoks, discuss how Mr. Dark might operate in the Star Wars universe, and perform bad covers of Live songs. Enjoy... if possible.
