This week Brendan and I continued our journey through the James Bond flicks and watched "Eight Vagina" and "Sean Connery is Fake Bond". My question to you guys is, should we have wasted our time watching Fake Bond or should we have skipped it?
It's not like we can go back in time and unwatchable it, but I'm curious for when we get to Casino Royale. Their are two other fake Bond flicks that go with that one (well, they share a title and a few characters, but are from like 50 years earlier). Should we watch those?
Let us know.

At this point you may as well go full retard.
Honestly though the reason I don't consider Never Say Never again is because they people that brought James Bond to life both in print and on film were in no way involved with the movie.
There's a great documentary on Netflix about all the James Bond movies you guys should watch at the end of this called Everything or Nothing: The Untold Story of 007. It explains why that movie perhaps shouldn't count and a whole lot of other shit. For example more reasons you should hate George Lazenby.
Honestly I get why you guys don't like these movies. They're kind of campy and cheesy and not thoroughly thought out at times. But for myself, and at least my fiancée too, we grew up watching these movies. I saw Moonraker before I was in middle school and have loved them since. Do you guys not think it strange that so many people love these movies and you guys in occasion find one you can put up with? Do you think the fact that you didn't grow up watching them could have something to do with that?

That documentary sounds like it would be worth watching when we finish the 007 journey, but I don't know if we could Moviecide it. The last time we did documentaries the episode ended up being a bit of a snore.
I agree that nostalgia plays a big factor in these movies. Honestly, I think nostalgia plays a big factor in most peoples taste in movies. Its the reason that Brendan and I both enjoy Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat is far from a great movie, but it takes us back to a time and a place in our lives. I imagine James Bond does the same for you and your wife to be.
