Episode 18: Goldeneye
Added 2021-10-12 23:03:00 +0000 UTC
It's time for a new guy
Would you believe it, they actually adapted Goldeneye for the N64 into a full-length movie! We got the extremely funny Mattie Lubchansky to discuss this attempt to bring Bond into the post-soviet world, largely by making a movie about soviet guys and just begrudgingly calling them 'russian' thoughout. Also everyone but Devon gets dip shit horny for Xenia Onatopp.

I just released the loudest, most crow-like "HA!" at "you can't make an omelette without shooting a few children." 😂

One thing I didn’t like was how one of Dench’s first lines to Bond is “you don’t like me.” It makes her look weak, insecure, and petty.
Ma’am, you’re the head of an organization that routinely tortures and murders people, I think the popularity contests are off the table at this point, don’t you?

I love that while they're discussing Bond using an AK they completely refuse to acknowledge that the second half of Living Daylights is real.

Like for Tomorrow Never Dies, I bet 5 quid Alice nominates the blonde girl in Hamburg who helps Carver facilitate the party and gets fired at the end.

I think Abi and Alice are relying a little too much on the underappreciated aspect. Like Kronsteen Rosette started out after From Russia with Love cause Kronsteen was a villain cooler than Bond who got little to no screen time. Now look back to View to a Kill's winner, hard hat guy, or Goldeneye's winner, Ourumov's driver. I totally understand their frustration, but it's all in good fun and for laughs. Plus, Devon getting mad over trivial things is always funny.

Poor Devon, outing themselves out as the least horny member of the pod, a Terry Pratchett fan, someone who clearly cares deeply about the metrics of how the prizes are given out and who can name the pokemon Probopass.

He gets bonus points when he has the villain kills his own henchman or when Bond gets a particularly brutal kill

Everyone was so distracted by Xenia, no one talked about Bond's safari fit for the end of the movie! I don't think we see another one in the series, how we hardly knew ye.

ok ive gotta say that abi's comment about bond getting points on his license to kill is the funniest fucking thing ive ever heard, im imagining bond having to go on a killing test with a murder instructor, getting minor faults for not getting the little spinning 007, major fault for not exploiting disability, eventually his license to kill has a little diagram on the bottom showing all the methods of execution hes legally allowed to use

I welcome Devon's new interest in making model tanks, and I would encourage them to go further by doing a model-making stream on TF perhaps

Also, fucking hilarious how last episode Tom (the guest) went OHHHH when the hosts explained how the snake didn't eat the Giggle kids cause they smell like shit.
In this episode, the hosts all go OHHHH when Mattie (the guest) explains how Xenia dies.
Sunrise, sunset.

In honour of the release of Dr. No Time to Die Another Day On Her Majesty's Secret Service and Devon's brilliant Q-card joke, here are two more knee-slappers you can share with loved one/mortal enemies/parasocial friends.
What is John Cleese's favorite part about going on a roller coaster? The queue.
What does Ben Whishaw use to clean his ears? Q-tips.

The Xenia boss fight is quite a bit different in the movie than in the game.

See I always found not letting this bond have an Irish accent was more than just because he could do an English accent. Always struck me that it would have been a BOLD statement in the mid 90's to have the iconic agent of the British state be Irish what with everything going on in the north of Ireland

The KJB of Theseus bits (Is it the same podcast if Mattie is all three hosts?) made me giggle.

Where can I find the first two bonus episodes? The one on the Goldeneye game and whichever the other one was

Robbie Coltrane is the KGB agent. Also Scottish. And also Hagrid. Love this episode. I remember this movie when it first came out.

Knowing that this is an adaptation of a first person shooter really helps explain the kill count

I unironically like this movie. It has the best villain AND best hench(wo)man. I don't know how knockoff 006's and Xenias didn't become the new standard after this. Instead we're still getting knockoff Blofelds and Red Grants.
I don't even mind the hypocrisy much, because I figure it's less on this movie for setting up that Bond is outdated and bad than it is on later Brosnan/Craig movies for never doing anything about it.

That was a lot of gushing about Xenia...but was it *enough* gushing about Xenia?

you should slap a few extra points on to Insensitivity for not having James and Alec crank each other off. absolute cowardice

I fucking love the contempt Devon has during the awarding of the rosette and cross for the past few episodes. "We're just giving it out to any motherfucker!" "They aren't even named in the script!"
Also, Devon, your comparison of the train to Probopass is so fucking apt. Holy shit, truly a remarkable comment.

Even Xenia's name is masculine-coded, since Russian surnames are gendered and hers is in the masculine.

getting perilously close to that beautiful moment where the mainline episodes get longer than the movies
