GOOOOOOLDFINGER…WAHWAAAAAHWAAHHH. An iconic (if not a bit cliched) movie featuring an iconic actor in maybe the most iconic of roles – absolutely ripe for remaking, right? Well, we decided to go for it, at least, and had a blast doing so. Here we tackle recasting three major and five minor roles. Along the way we reveal our martini of choice, try (very poorly) to pronounce Gert Frobe’s name, muppets, and the Bond of Connery’s era vs the Bond of today (leaving plenty of room for discussion of that in part two, don’t you worry). Enjoy!
