News 01 - Amazon Creative Takeover Reaction
Hello and welcome to Pay Attention, 007, the podcast where hosts Tessa Swehla, Ryan Silberstein, and Elyse Debra watch all 25 of the Eon Productions James Bond films in chronological order beginning with 1962’s Doctor No and ending with 2021’s No Time to Die…unless another film comes out before they are finished!
The hosts are joined for this special episode by Fangoria editor-in-chief and Bond aficionado Phil Nobile Jr. to discuss the news that Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson are stepping back from the Bond franchise and that Amazon now has full creative control of the franchise going forward. This marks a huge departure from Bond status quo as a member of the Broccoli family has overseen production of every canonical Bond film since 1962’s Dr. No. The hosts and Phil discuss their reactions to the news and the legacy of the Broccolis on James Bond films.
The hosts discuss everything Dr. No, from the production, to the quips, tropes, and the villains, so be prepared for spoilers.
