No Time To Die is inching ever closer, which means we’re nearing the end of Mad Unreal’s countdown to the 25th James Bond film. What better way to keep things interesting than to take a look at what could be the most unique Bond film of them all: 1969’s On Her Majesty’s Secret Service? In George Lazenby’s one and only outing as 007, we’re introduced to a similar yet drastically different Bond—one who loves just as hard as he lives. Join us as we explore a movie that stands proudly apart from the rest of the cannon and ignites yet another fascinating Mad Unreal discussion.

In 1987, a new James Bond film was poised to introduce an actor who appeared to be the archetype of the Bond character; a man who fit the description millions of fans already had in mind. But before The Living Daylights could shoot its first scene, fate intervened—and Pierce Brosnan was out. Enter Timothy Dalton. Would Dalton’s interpretation of the legendary spy erase the public’s appetite for Brosnan? Could the film keep pace with the success rate of the previous Roger Moore movies? Join Mad Unreal as we continue our countdown to No Time To Die by debating the finer points of one of the greatest Bond films ever.

No Time To Die has a brand new trailer—which means the 25th James Bond film is still on track to drop in October—which of course means our ‘007 And Counting’ countdown has a brand new ep! The Bond franchise’s fourth film, Thunderball, followed the mega-success of the seminal Goldfinger and featured the return of Spectre. Join Arthur and Isaac as they discuss the state of the franchise when Thunderball was conceived, Bond’s performance in this underwater thriller, and the virtues of the Bond Women versus the boldness of the Bond Villains.
With the often rescheduled No Time to Die now set to open in just over a month, Mad Unreal is bringing back our special “007 And Counting” James Bond series. Last year, we discussed Daniel Craig’s epic tenure as the world’s most famous spy, while also examining the complications of being a Black Bond fan. This year, we’re diving into six random films and breaking them down as only we can. First up? Roger Moore’s Live and Let Die, a movie that brings Black culture into the Bond series like never before. But did they get it right? Join us for a brand new episode of our countdown to the 25th James Bond film.
