Matt and Matt and James Bonding Podcasts.
Myra Gorely, Gorely.
Welcome to James Bonding, free episode season finale, fantasy shadow draft.
My name's Matt Goreley.
My name is Matt.
My name is Matt.
Myra.
Matt, I guess it was such a hit the last time we drafted.
This is our third draft.
Yeah.
Is it?
Yeah, because we did that first smaller draft with James.
Oh, that I don't count.
That I count as like spring training.
Okay.
You know, that was like a pre-season draft.
Then I count the real draft, which was that season of this season.
Danny, of course, it's time to congratulate her.
I know.
Yeah.
Not only did Danny.
Price win the last one.
She won by as much as the rest of the people combined in percentage points.
Yeah, yeah.
50%.
That's a landslide with six people.
Danny,
welcome back to the show.
Thank you.
Get up on that mic if you don't mind there.
Thank you.
Thank you.
It's good to be back.
Yeah.
Really, just good drafting.
And I think what put it over the top was your synopsis.
And just really.
Yeah.
And skyrocketed.
you.
Kind of prescient, too, because of this buddy cop thing with Bond and Felix Leiter.
And then they released the synopsis of Bond 25, only to find that they must have been listening and quickly have rewritten their script.
Off your idea.
Some people were tweeting at me.
They were like, what happened?
I think they owe you royalties.
And I was like, eh.
That's exactly how Hollywood works.
It makes sense to me because I think Jeffrey Wright is very popular, but I think his popularity has really increased since Westworld.
So I can see why they would be like, look, we got this guy.
Let's utilize him.
Interesting.
See, I thought his popularity reached peak when the last shaft movie came out.
He played Peoples Hernandez.
You know why they call him Peoples?
Why is that?
Because he always takes care of his peoples.
Do you know who that voice is talking right now?
Speaking of Peoples, the Peoples with the Meeples, I wanted to say host with the most.
No, but thank you for acknowledging my meples.
He has a scorching case of Meeples.
His name is Ter and Kill him, and he's back.
for draft shadow draft two hi terran hi guys
guys guys
season three three feet
right i think that's right i've really
forced myself upon you guys i love it he's fresh off the heels of the die another
day commentary which made that movie enjoyable for
the first time for many people well also the fact that we couldn't hear the dialogue i
thought helped because because the visuals are so strong
yes that's right taren yeah yeah uh happy to be back had a blast
last time looking forward to a few new wrinkles and wrenches.
Yes.
Let's draft.
Okay.
Also, we have a new person joining us today.
This is very exciting.
Mark and Draco comes by the way of Taryn Killem.
And we have some, how are you feeling about your prospects today, Mark?
Welcome, first of all.
I have no idea what I'm doing.
I know this is about James Bond and I made a list.
Yeah.
Well, none of us do because this is also, we'll explain it in a bit, a new type of draft.
We're calling it a shadow draft.
And Taryn and Matt and I came up with it in.
about 20 seconds through the day.
So you know it's going to work. Is that clear to
everyone who tried to fill out a draft sheet?
Yeah. And then Mark,
we left to Mark our wonderful
and valuable moderator
to kind of sort it out,
which he has done so graciously. Mark,
how are you? I'm great. I can't wait for this.
This is going to be good.
Should we get our tiny table?
Do you need a tiny table?
Wouldn't hurt. I don't have a tiny table.
Why do you not have a tiny table? You might have
a second chair. You may
You should build a table.
A tiny table?
You want to sit here and you have this?
No, no, no.
Yeah, we'll grab a second chair.
Matt, I'm looking at four handmade, beautiful wooden light fixtures.
You see four?
I thought there was.
There's a chain.
Okay, there's three.
Okay.
Right?
They're beautiful.
Crafted by hand.
You're telling me you couldn't come up with a tiny table.
Well, I guess I could.
I just, I'll work on it.
All right.
And last but not least, she's back.
She's Shannon.
And Shannon, how are you feeling you like?
The golden voice, I would now like...
The golden voice, yes.
We're going to talk about this in a second.
We're actually going to do a quick little interlude here.
Cool, great.
Shannon, do you want to set any of this up?
Now, Shannon, of course, we're in a band together.
Yes.
Called Townland.
And it's not a secret anymore.
It's not a secret anymore.
This is a long dormant band of mine that has been emerged from the ashes with Shannon as the amazing singer.
And for this season finale, we've done something very special and we've had Matt Myra along
with us on this.
perform a bond medley that we've worked out as a band.
And it is easy listening.
Yeah, I think so.
And I believe that the listeners are going to get to hear it at the end of the episode.
No, right now.
Right now?
Oh, my God, I love this.
Just to get everybody in the mood.
Oh, you people are in for a treat.
Oh, and Matt was nice enough to come and join us.
He's hopping in on the electric guitar, which is adding some sweet textures.
And we're playing our first show on July.
9th, and guess who's joining us?
Mark McConville's not only opening, but
playing pedal steel. Yes, it's so
beautiful, you guys don't even know.
It's at the lyric hyperian
Don't miss it. July 9th at
8 p.m. You can get tickets on Eventbrite if you just search
Townland. Yes, and the link is in like our
Instagram bio, which is at Townland Band.
Yeah. So to get us into the spirit
of this episode, you're going to hear some,
like I said, they're not even easy
listening. They're effortless.
songs.
We took some of the most
what would you, I mean,
well, for one thing, it's just...
They're probably not the choices if people thought,
oh, a Bond medley, I feel like the songs we picked.
Fans of our show.
Okay, fans of this will definitely be like, yeah,
all good choices.
Well, first of all, here's just to put you in the mood,
it's a medley, but we play one full song up front
and it's all-time high from Octopus.
So that's the one that gets the most sunlight
is telling you something.
Yeah.
I mean, it's got eight tentacles to...
It's a son, so we might as well let it breathe.
So it's eight guitars being played.
Four.
So take a listen to this.
It was all recorded the other night, just in my garage as a band played it.
And that's us.
So sit back, kick back, and then we'll be back to get into this thing, a hard style.
Lord was a sweet distraction for an hour.
Funny how it always goes with love when you don't look.
Oh, none of us heard it in the room later.
I'm proud of it.
I think it sounds good.
Shannon, you have a beautiful voice.
Matt, thank you for joining us.
You're welcome.
Glad to have been a part of it.
It was a good, it was fun.
And I wish that my guitar was working properly at that time.
Well, we got around it.
We did.
We tuned to you.
Yeah, it sure came together very nicely.
Mark, how do you want to do this?
Well, we should probably go over what happened.
Everybody.
sent me their choices for the casting the bond list.
The rules, I believe, I think, we can all agree.
It's people who have never been in a bond film before.
Yeah, so we know we're in for something different.
And the concept here is that production starts tomorrow.
We're casting these people right now.
And so we're not pulling from history.
We might do that in the future.
Yeah.
Oh, that's a good idea.
But this is current day cast that would, you know,
let's say this bond film that's currently being really made just blows up.
It's like we have to replace everybody.
Yikes.
Let's do it with these people.
This is the shadow draft.
In the future, we'll do the Times app draft.
Timesap draft.
Time Zap draft.
Let's do the Times app again.
All six people in the room gave me a James Bond, for instance.
Someone who would play James Bond, and we don't know who, nobody knows who anybody else picked.
Right.
And in the Bond category, there are no repeats.
So we have six unique James Bond.
But in some of the other categories, we have repeats, like the Ally Mentor category,
has a repeat.
Now, I have taken the liberty of replacing one of those repeats with my own choice.
That's the rule.
If there is a duplicate, Mark, it's to take one out and put anyone in, good or bad.
And I've done that in this, anywhere where there's a repeat in the same category.
Yes.
Now, there's also some, like, M. Ally Mentor duplicates.
I have not replaced them yet, but I will in real time.
Once one of the two has been picked, I'll swap out.
Okay.
The remaining category will get a new person.
So we can't pick somebody twice.
Right.
Okay.
Right.
Yes.
Does this make sense?
It makes good sense.
Now, should we go through the categories to know what we're picking?
Your categories are Bond.
Bond girl.
I'm not familiar.
There you go.
I just want to say it.
So the idea, of course, is that if the beauty of this, I think, is that any of us who
have a pick, we will see it on there.
We won't know that the duplicate was honest.
Good point.
So we're going to look at that and we're going to see.
a name we chose, for instance, if I wanted.
When I thought this was space and time, I could
pick for many time, I wanted Red Fox
in the movie. I didn't know where I was going to put
him, but I wanted them in there.
So if I looked down and, you know,
Taryn also happened to pick Red Fox. I would just
see Red Fox. I wouldn't tell him that
I picked Red Fox. Did you pick?
And we'd see the right number of names,
but we wouldn't know whose
duplicate was replaced. So now
that, I did mark
which ones I have picked
with a little mark.
Oh, that's still okay, though.
Yeah.
So are we not the most to say what our picks are?
That's a secret.
I think we know which ones you can.
I think it's up to you probably.
The asterisked.
So one's that he added.
Okay.
We're literally still figuring.
Let's do the legend.
Yeah.
Of this map.
Love it.
Love it.
One asterisk means that the person has appeared in more than one category.
I like that.
Okay.
Two asterisks means, uh, oh, that they are duplicates.
That they were a duplicate in the same category.
Oh, that all that.
Asterisk also means that.
It just means the person was picked three times.
Oh.
In the same category.
The little, you know, the little...
Red Fox.
Those are all my replacements and picks.
Okay.
All right.
Okay.
Everybody got it.
McConnor Hill, you've got it again.
Is it weird?
I'm getting really tense.
No, it's not weird at all.
And I'm excited.
This has added a real sort of like espionage wrinkle to this.
You don't know who to trust.
You don't know who's out for the same information.
It's more like mafia or werewolf.
This is the greatest thing that's ever had.
And we,
We don't know the picks yet.
We haven't even seen them.
Right.
So everyone in the room has submitted a bond, a bond girl, a villain, a henchman, an M, a Q, a money penny, an American intelligence agent, an ally mentor, a car, a gadget, a musical artist to do the song.
Yeah.
Or the theme song for it.
And then I have provided all of the secondary bond girls.
I love it.
As requested by.
So like the femme fatale.
Nice.
The femme fatale.
So everybody's submissions are the pool that everyone.
everybody's picking from. So just if you picked Red Fox on your list, but suddenly you see the
list and you're like, oh, man, oh, I got to have this other person. You leave Red Fox in the dust
for somebody else to pick. Bill Cosby in his prime. I'll take it. He has a type. He's not in
his prime right now. He is America's dead. He's in Genpop right now. So with that, I think we're good.
Does it make sense to everybody? Yeah, I think that's, let me just look at. Release.
All right.
It should unfurl like a giant American flag on opening day.
All right.
I think.
Should you hand them to us face down and we all flip at the same time?
Oh, this is so much.
I know.
It's important.
Okay.
What if one of us dies?
Just one.
I might die.
It's just a single sheet.
It's a way to go.
It'd be a way to go.
Average computer weight and yet feels heavier somehow.
It does.
Symbolically heavy.
By the way, we should mention this is not our last episode of the season.
There will be one more commentary paywall.
but this is the last free episode,
so we wanted it to be a big one.
We're going out with a bank.
Could be when I finally get Matt to watch The Rock.
No.
It's never going to be.
It's never going to be.
All right.
All right.
All right.
Turn on 17.
Oh, okay.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my.
All right.
Okay.
Oh, my.
Okay.
So we have everybody a chance to go over.
Oh, there are some delightful fucking picks in here.
Every single one of these bonds is so hot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. Every one of these, uh, Bond girls.
Okay.
I have to Google some of these people.
You might have to look up some people.
There are some, uh, what I would be happy to do.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow. Okay.
Okay.
A lot of money penny tripling up.
Yep.
A lot of triple up money pennies.
Yeah.
Whoa.
That's, that is what happened.
Yeah.
Great.
Great.
Oh my God.
There's some good ally mentors too.
Oh my God.
You can tell what everybody's been watching on TV.
You sure can't.
That's.
That Phoebe Waller Bridge pick.
Oh, my God.
I just, I just enjoy her very much, and I'm looking forward to her script.
Okay.
Wowy.
Whoa, there's some crazy choices that I really respect here.
Thank you.
Single asterisk.
And they're all mine.
So single asterisk are your danger zone picks.
Yeah.
Because if you pick, like, we have Olivia Coleman as M, but then she's also somewhere else here.
As villain.
A villain.
Yes.
Yes.
So if you choose her as a villain, I'm going to put a different M in.
Yes.
But if you choose her as the M, then I'm going to put a different villain.
Wow.
Wow.
This is so exciting.
I don't even know how to do the math right now.
I know.
That's going to be fun.
And also, I will say this.
Every.
Well, maybe I won't say else.
This is crazy.
Idris Elba got put in his ally mentor, but not bond.
Yeah.
Because I don't think any of us wanted to be a basic bitch.
I didn't put him as bond.
I wanted to choose him as bond, but I didn't because I assumed somebody else would.
Yeah, the Gen Pupp.
Some of these carrots, some of these up arrows, I really love.
Thank you.
And I'm really like, I'm tempted.
I'm tempted.
How do we determine order?
Well, draft order, I think.
This is important.
Winner goes first.
Well, I think if we're doing a snake draft again, which is that same order, then I believe that the appropriate thing to do would be to give the winner.
We can do the winner goes first.
I like that.
Do you want I mean?
Then what though?
How do you go from there?
Clockwise?
Counterclockwise?
Counterclockwise is fine.
Counterclockwise sounds.
I'm up for whatever.
Yeah.
Danny this way.
Danny Shish.
Yeah.
Matt and I pick last.
It's good.
By the way, Matt and I, the host of this podcast, came in last.
Dead last.
On that draft last time.
By the way, appropriate.
Yeah.
Ooh.
Ooh.
There's so much.
Wait, so what's, can I ask a question on secondary bond girl in your category, Mark?
Yes.
Yes.
A very talented and sexy.
women we don't know about yet.
Yeah.
So that is one of my choices and I just think that that is a very common thing that happens
in a Bond film that someone would be cast in the film where it's like, who's that?
Where did they come from?
I don't know who that is.
Like a relatively unknown actress or model shows up, but I don't want to name them because
I don't know who they are.
I thought you meant like if you choose this, you find out after you pick who it is you got.
No.
I think it's more just some amazing casting.
person
goes out and
find someone
put Solange
as a secondary
bond girl
and Casino
Royale
the secondary
bond girl's name
in the movie
is Solange.
I'm talking
Solange Knowles.
Yeah.
I love it.
Yeah.
So the villain
has to be Jay Z
and she hits him
in an elevator
right?
I don't know
it's your script.
Cool.
Cool.
Very cool.
I've completely
decoded this list
by the way.
Yeah.
I'm sure you have.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. So, are there any other question?
We should also post this master list on your Instagram, Twitter.
I like the car.
Oh, I like the car.
Play along at home.
The cars are funny.
Cars are great.
The gadgets are really funny, too.
Gadgets are awesome.
But I will say it again, I have a newfound respect for casting because I'm looking for people.
And it's like, all I can do is go like, well, I watched this movie and I like this person.
So I guess I'll put them in this thing.
Good thing I wasn't watching Golden Girls when I made up this.
Or?
Or?
You just have Betty White, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, because no dead people allowed.
Oh, yeah.
We definitely have to do a time warp one.
There's so many good ones.
So, okay.
The draft order is Danny, Shannon, Mark, Taron, Matt Gourley, Matt Myra.
And you guys have had some time.
We've got another question.
Go ahead.
Should we conduct this draft as a preview?
respectfully? No. Respectfully, no. That's not a question, Taryn. The answer is no on that. But should we allow whoever's picket is to choose from whichever category they'd like so we're bouncing around or would you like to fill out each category as we go down? Oh, I think you can jump on. Gotcha. Thank you.
If you want to pick your car first, not your self-out. That seems like a waste of the running to win.
All right. Ladies gentlemen,
The 2019
Shadow
Nobody took these gadgets
seriously.
Nobody did take the gadgets
except for me.
You say except for you.
Yeah.
There was a potential
Which one is the serious one
in that list?
Gadget is hard.
There's a potential repeat.
But I don't,
it's so specific
that I was like,
no.
There's some funny as hell ones.
A laser pointer
that's an actual laser.
What is he
undercover as a professor?
Or a moviegoer from
2002.
These will come out as we draft.
All right.
Okay.
So, I'll try to officially kick this off.
Ready?
Yeah.
2019.
Shadow draft of the James Bond franchise has begun.
Commissioner Mark McCauvel, I turn it over to you.
Danny, you're on the clock.
Wow.
This is really difficult because there's just a page of amazing actors.
I think I'm just going to pick my bond first.
because I really like it.
Can I talk about the other picks?
Sure.
Like, what else is on this?
Well,
just because somebody submitted one that I almost did.
Okay.
I almost put Carl Urban as well,
so that would have been a duplicate.
You did it, I did it.
I'm going to go,
his name is pronounced Mickey L. Hausman.
I almost put him.
No one I looked up.
I almost put him.
Yeah, he's really good.
Is he Outlander?
No, he's Dario from Game of Thrones.
He's second Dario.
Second Dario.
Second hot Dario from Game of Thrones.
That's a good one.
That's a real good one.
He's a really good actor.
He's got the swagger.
Matt's got a good Google images on a lot of.
He was also in the house on Hunted Hill.
Do you guys care that he was also?
He's tall.
Hunting of Hill Hounding of Hill.
He looks really good in a suit.
He's really good at action.
I think the only downside for him as Bond is that he is Danish.
Yes, he's Danish.
Which I can see some.
I am not getting behind because he's not British.
Yeah, but he was on Nashville.
It's true.
Back on board.
So I think he can handle.
As a Danish country singer.
I think he could do a British show.
I'm like, he couldn't have been in the Altman film.
He was an embryo.
That's going to distract me.
Those eyes are just gorgeous.
So we have a bond off the board?
That's my bond.
B-O-T-B.
Shan.
Okay.
I guess I'm going to bond it too.
And I do pick Carl Urban.
And I know he is also not
British and he is Australian, but I think
that's fine. There's precedent. Lazyz
Be was Australia. Okay, and I just,
I like how it's very mainly
I feel like James Vaughan should be lumberjacky.
Like, I don't know, I like it.
He looks good in the boys too.
He looks really good in the boys.
He would be phenomenal. Tim Burr.
Great.
Mark, the clock is running for you.
Speaking of timber and getting wood, I chose
Henry Cavill.
Which if anyone knows me, that was the obvious choice
for me. I think he'd be a great James Bond, actually. In instance, he's been so misused as Superman,
I would like to see him do something that isn't constricted.
You probably know that he was the runner up to Daniel Craig for Bond. Yes, yes. And
this could be a silent movie. As long as his shirt comes off once, I'm good.
Mark, you know, when I lost my whole time travelability in casting this movie, I said to,
I had to go pick a new Bond. And I said to Mark, I'm going to say one right now. I'm sure
they're on the list. And Henry Cavill was the one I said.
you're a good man so
for anybody who wants a bond
way up his own ass
yeah yeah well there's a couple
on this list there's a couple actors
on this list that could qualify for that not a cabal fan
okay my turn
shade throne
when I
I had the conundrum of
UK or not UK citizen or not
and I was gonna
at first I was going to do hot Jafar
for my bond
which I think could
I think he could be great
Who's hot Jafar?
Yeah, who's that?
Yeah, I don't remember his name.
Oh, from Atlanta.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's a real real streambook.
Yeah.
Oh, I thought you were going to the stage.
Hot Jafar.
Animated Bond.
Cool world.
And you were just going to throw Jafar as James Bond.
The animated one into the people.
I don't hate that.
Zemeca's directing.
Watch it.
Yes.
Oh, my God.
I'm not going to pick my Bond.
I'm going to pick my villain.
Yes.
And I'm going to choose Tilda
Swinton. Wow.
That is a fucking great.
I almost gave up my villain for that one.
I think she could work.
I'm glad I went for it.
That's our first cross category.
Yes.
Replacement.
So everybody, I got to find it too.
She's on M.
Oh.
So she's off the board as a villain and also now off the board as
as M.
So what goes in that M space?
We're going to hear it right now, everybody.
Your new M is Clive Owen.
Oh, I don't hate that.
Don't either.
I feel like Clive Owen belongs in a James Bond movie.
Agreed.
He would have been a good bond.
He would have been.
He played a very good James Bond in Johnny English.
Mm.
I just think he's phenomenal and he would really help out the old Bond franchise in any way that he can.
And if that's...
In weird symmetry, Tilda Swinton was my M and my second choice was actually Clive Owen.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
Oh.
Well, there we go.
Nobody is going to be upset.
No.
Unless Matt Goreley makes a pick right now that makes somebody mad.
Matt, it's your turn.
I feel like I feel pressure to lock down my bond, even though I don't know that the remaining people would pick him.
Now, I'm seeing Colin Farrell here.
I almost put Colin Farrell.
I love that guy.
I'm assuming that to you.
I don't know what you mean.
Yeah, I don't know either.
Well, if we have figured out how Mark has written this all down, we think we know.
I'm going to go with my pick, and that is I think he's still got some time left in him.
Michael Fastbender, he's got enough of the swab and enough of the grit for a happy medium.
I think, like, you got a little, just a dash of Roger Moore, some Daniel Craig,
and then kind of just the lean look of a Lazyze & B, too.
So I'm pretty happy with that.
Huh?
Very big gun.
Yes.
Sorry.
What are you laughing at my pick?
Fans of shame.
No, the reference.
Oh, got you.
Yeah.
Okay.
All right.
Matt, Myra, we come to you.
You have two picks here on this.
Yeah, it's the beauty of the snake.
It's the beauty of the snake.
And because of that, I'm just going to take a look down this list here,
and I'm looking for what I'm doing here is a little strategy.
I'm looking for stars, guys.
I'm looking for asterisk.
Star power.
Because, quite frankly, I've seen what you've all been doing,
and it's very boring to me.
So, wow.
What I'm going to do
is steal someone else's choice.
Exactly.
You are all great at picking.
I know.
It's how I have to play the game
in order to lose every time.
Here's what I'm doing,
ladies and gentlemen.
I'm going to go ahead.
I'm seeing on here that
there's an ally mentor category.
First of all,
the double asterisk
followed by this Mr.
T choice is just.
Wow.
Now, I can explain it
When somebody has to pick them, I'll give you my logic.
I understand.
And the only, hang on, where's the three star?
Oh, it's a Phoebe Waller Bridge and I think she's just a fabulous writer who should write.
Okay.
All right.
Here's what I'm doing.
I would like to make my M.
I'm picking an M, everybody.
Okay.
Tick talk
Olivia Coleman is my M
Oh god damn it
I upset a lot of people on that
Motherfucker
I upset a lot of people didn't even know
She was my villain choice
Hey hey hey hey look
Secrets
Oh boy
That's your M pick
That's my M pick
So immediately
Olivia Coleman's off the board
As a villain
I gotta go to my villain list
Pick somebody here
Okay
Look
Yeah
It's top flight talent.
You're getting Denzel Washington.
Oh, wow.
Whoa.
Whoa.
That's a villain category.
Matt has.
Can you imagine Deadzel as a bond villain?
Yes, actually.
I love it.
Yeah.
That's inspired.
I mean, if you can get anybody, I doubt he would do it at this point.
I bet he would actually.
He did Equalizer, too.
He'll do a bond.
He did equalizer one.
Wow.
Wow.
All right.
So now it's Matt's upset.
I didn't know it.
Didn't pick his own M.
No.
Eliminated a choice for villain
in one foul swoop.
That was a dick pick.
The beauty.
That's the beauty.
That's the beauty of
playing this game
because I wanted to use
all of space and time.
Lord of mercy.
I was not able to
because I didn't send a fucking email.
All right, Thanos.
We'll do it next time.
Snap.
Ladies and gentlemen.
Of the draft.
Yep.
It is now time for me to select my money penny.
Was he going to do it again?
He could do it again because he knows for a fact that according to the deciphering I've done of this list.
Taryn wanted her.
Looks like Shannon wanted her.
Looks like you're Matt shaking his head.
He doesn't like the way I'm playing right now.
No, I, ladies a gentleman, I'm picking Karen Gillen.
I changed it completely.
For what?
For what category?
Karen Gillen is my money, penny.
Is your money?
Okay, so that takes you out of Q?
We need a Q replacement now.
It does.
It does.
It's got it.
Absolutely.
Hold on.
So that's money.
Matt Meyer is doing this draft
sipping from a Specter coffee.
That is 100% true.
That's 100% true.
Stroking a white-your-cat.
White.
That's money, penny.
That's correct, sir.
Okay, so that makes her,
who do I need?
Q.
Okay.
This is highly controversial.
Oh, exciting.
The new Q, I'm going to allow a veto on this if you think.
No.
No, my.
Okay.
That's our veto.
You have unilateral power.
No matter what we say, we can't veto it.
Are you sure?
Yeah.
Gonzo from the Muppet.
Okay.
Okay.
Love it.
Let me ask, do I get, does he come with chicken puppets?
I don't know.
Is it a raise-out one of his assistants?
I mean, of all the Muppets, he would be the cue.
It's true.
This is so fun.
Yeah, that's great.
Matt, you want Gonzo?
No.
I was holding out for Scooter.
All right.
I'm going to, I feel like the key to a good Bond movie is the villain.
And Mark, with an inspired choice, I'm taking Denzel Washington.
Nice.
Yeah, it is not.
a bad choice at all.
He's one of America's greatest actors.
I love it.
And I would love to see what he did with a bond villain.
That actually makes me really, really want him to be a bond villain.
Yeah.
I think of it.
Yeah, absolutely.
God, he was so good.
What's the Ryan Reynolds safe house?
Do you know that movie?
He's like a big espionage guy and he's, Ryan Reynolds is a safe house in the middle of nowhere.
And he's like the biggest criminal of all time.
And it's just like the schlockiest action movie, but he's so good in it.
He's still so good, yeah.
Yeah, it's just a total airplane movie that Denzel shines.
Love it.
An American Treasure.
Put him on, put him in your Bond movie, Matt.
Got him.
Taryn, we go to you.
I'm gonna, oh man, there's already so much more strategy to this draft.
Yeah.
There's already so much more pressure.
Well, you know.
But last time, what I've had the most guilt about was how long I took with my synopsis
and how much stress it caused me.
So I did a lot of work ahead.
a time.
You did a lot of work on yourself.
I did a lot of work with me.
Hours and hours of analysis.
And sort of like my story hinges on this choice.
So I got to choose my henchman next, actually.
And I'm choosing Millie Bobby Brown.
That is inspired.
I thought about choosing a kid too.
Yeah.
I love that pick.
Thank you very much.
I almost chose that kid from killing of a sacred deer, Barry Keogh.
Oh, he creeps me out so much.
If we had all of time and space, I would have taken 1968's Clint Howard.
Yeah.
From the Star Trek?
Yes.
Try some delicious.
Interesting.
If we're going to go to little kids, I would have chosen Malachi from children.
Oh, yeah.
You'll get your chance when we do the time zap.
Time Zap draft.
Mark, we come to you.
I'm going to go to the villains.
And much like the Denzel Washington, I chose Tom Hanks, because Tom Hanks has never played a full-out villain.
and we've seen him like
It depends on your point of view
Like a charismatic Donald Trump
Up front everyone loves him
But he's a motherfucker behind the scene
Trump
Yeah
No I'm saying
A charismatic
A charismatic version of Trump
And I think
Same amount of evil
We've never seen Tom Hanks play a villain
And he could get away with so much
Because we love him
Well he was in Road to Perdition
But he was a dad
No
There was something else
Yeah there was something
Something really early on in his career
Oh yeah
The Money Pit
He knows you're alone
Bousam Buzum Bodies
The Dungeons and Dragons movie
Mases and monsters
That was a TV film
No, there was something else
He knows you're alone
He was the killer
Oh you're thinking
Now you're thinking of family ties
He was the drunk uncle
Mark when you submitted your list
I gotta say Tom Hicks
Just was a shining star
Yeah
I really was like
Oh yeah
Come on
If I had a studio
I would offer him
$30 million to be the villain
In any movie
Because the curiosity factors
And you know
Oh I want to see that
Yeah
Did you see him on Kimmel
recently?
He was such a villain
He was nobody like
Kimmel said like
Hey man
You're so bull
love it and nice and you can get away with anything.
Do you think you could go next door into the souvenir shop and steal a cardboard cut out of you?
And he's like, oh yeah.
And just went in and was like, hey, I'm Tom Hanks.
I'm taking all this stuff.
Like nobody stopped him.
Amazing.
He's totally set up.
I'm sure.
But he like started taking little statuettes and like a lady to make him a hot dog outside.
He was just on the Graham Norton show and he was talking about acting and dialogue and he did
this exercise, this Meisner exercise with Tom Holland.
And Tom Holland was like, oh.
But he was just like,
he was like Ben Kenobi's like, let's do it now.
Repeat after me.
It was amazing.
Let's get Tom Hanks and Denzel together.
Yes, same movie.
Can you guys just make one movie together?
The Jefferson's movie.
Jesus.
Tom Hanks as Tom Willis and Denzel Washington is George Jefferson.
I think we have a new podcast.
Shian.
Hi.
Hi.
Okay, I think I'm going to steal someone else's villain because I like, also like Taryn was so very
stressed out by the synopsis part of last time and I feel like it's where I failed and I appreciate
people like appreciating my shadow dong line but like I didn't deserve like I didn't deserve the
votes that I got like it's fine. You had a jet pack. I know but it's awesome. You still
madden me. Oh that's true but I think that's just because people didn't want to vote for you guys
because it's even unfair. Okay. Anyway, point is I like this villain a little better for the
story I had in my mind. So I'm going to take Emma Thompson, please.
Nicely done. I was considering that.
Nicely done. Oh, and she's a duplicate, right?
Yes. She was a duplicate.
In Moneypenny category.
Oh, wow. So we're really going to need to dig deep here
because my list is almost up.
It's what Muppets going in here?
No, there won't be a Muppet.
Skexies from Dark Crystal.
There won't be a Muppet.
Chuckie from Charlesville.
There's so many I could pick.
Shan, I'm sorry.
You took Emma for...
For villain.
Good move.
Good move.
Oh, she's...
I've already put her on there.
Okay.
Sorry.
I've got someone in mind.
Samara Weaving.
Who?
Oh, the ring girl.
No.
Isn't that the name of the...
She was in the babysitter.
She's in picnic at Hanging Rock.
She's Hugo Weaving's daughter.
She's Hugo Weaving's niece.
Oh, I thought it was his daughter.
Yeah, but they look very...
The bloodline is real thick.
That's unfortunate
She is a beautiful Australian
She is the girlfriend
Of she's on Smilf
Great
She was the girlfriend of Smilf's ex
So great
So she's looking for what
She's a giant
Yeah she's like really really pretty
And but she's also a really good actress
All right
That's great
I like that
Mark
Danny
Oh wait we're going this way
We're going to Danny
She gets two
Choices.
Oh, yeah, I forgot.
I like the system.
Okay.
I'm going to do my henchmen first just because I kind of, the plot that I have in mind really
kind of revolves around it.
I'm going to take, I think it's pronounced Iwan Rion.
He's, you're making up so many names.
What?
I think it's, I think it's Ewan.
I don't know, but I'm going to say Ewan.
It's Welsh, right?
It thinks so, yeah.
Who knows how it's pronounced?
He's a child.
He is from Game of Thrones.
Ramsey Bolton.
I considered that.
He's also in the British show, Misfits.
Yeah, that's all.
And he's signed in.
He plays Mick Mars in the Mali crew movie.
He sure does.
And he was probably the best part of that movie.
But yeah, I think he would be a great henchman because he's like kind of hot, but he's
like creepy looking and he's got these like piercing blue eyes.
And he's kind of like shorter.
I think he could be like a really weird henchman.
Yeah, he's going to win again.
Real strong.
Like a wind and kid situation.
Right.
Kind of, yeah, where he's like, kind of creepy.
Got Matt Googling some people over here.
Yeah, I'm just looking up, Mani, Jacinto.
Oh.
Yeah.
I mean, I pick.
It's my pick.
No, it's needed to see.
Danny's.
Oh, I go again.
Okay.
Oh, you're saying you put him on your list, but you did know who he was.
Got it.
Danny, you're up again.
Okay, I'm going to go ahead and do my villain, which is Jason.
Isaacs.
Nice.
Piercing blue eyes.
You're going to all eyes.
Yeah.
I don't know what it is.
Uh, yeah.
All eyes is a good title.
In so many movies.
Harry Potter.
Yeah.
The O.A.
If anyone watches that.
The Patriot.
Heard a couple times.
Star Trek Discovery.
On set.
Peter Pan.
Interesting.
Yeah.
But he would be a good villain.
Well.
People you don't want to do.
Mel Gibson.
I don't want to throw it.
Interesting.
Interesting.
Christian Bale, Mel Gibson, Marla Brando.
Matt Myra.
Yes, sir.
You have Olivia Coleman is your villain, yes.
That's true.
Okay, I just want to make sure.
That is true.
So.
Wait.
Wait, we don't go back?
It bounces.
Yes, we go to Shannon.
Back to me.
And sorry, Taryn.
No.
Tilda Swinton is your villain?
My villain.
Yeah.
Got it.
Okay, I just had her in the wrong thing.
Oh, I see what's happened.
Okay.
Let's continue.
Okay.
Shannon.
I'm going to do my henchman, and I am going to pick Manny Jacinto.
Jacinto, okay.
I don't know how you say it, actually.
But he's on the good place.
He plays Jason on the good place.
And he's very, very handsome.
And I feel like, hey, Bund, just so you know, my boss said I should stop you from whatever you're going to do.
Yeah, just like that.
But I don't know.
I felt like in the henchman category, like you can't pick someone too, too famous because they're not.
It's not like a big role, but like it would.
be a breakout star moment for him.
So that's my pick.
Wouldn't it be cool if a laser pointer was also a laser?
Go porthals.
Hey guys, it's Pikachu.
That's his best thing.
Mark, we're coming to you.
You have a bond.
You have a villain.
That's a pretty nice couple of tent poles there.
I'm going to stay with henchmen.
And I picked someone who's moderately famous,
but a good henchman makes you want to hate them.
And they don't talk a lot.
And I chose Miles Teller for both of those reasons.
Because I think he's got an eminently
punchable face.
Yeah, a lot of people don't,
I feel like audiences don't like him.
I'm sure he likes himself.
People in the industry love him.
Okay.
Anyway, I want to see Tom Hanks be mean to him
and I want to see Henry Cable kick his ass.
So, Miles Taylor.
There you go.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That is a punchable face.
You're right.
T.K., coming around to you.
All right, M.M.
I, I am selecting from outside of my picks.
Oh, boy.
It's never been done except what I do it every time.
It's true, and I'm now kind of putting out fires.
I'm going to select a queue.
Okay.
And I'm going to select Peter Dinklage.
Get mine, you some bitch.
That's right.
You can have I'm sorry.
I like that in my pick.
And then I erased it and changed it, but I almost picked it.
I like that very much.
That's very, very good.
I kind of wanted to put him as henchman, but I thought that's just, it's not right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
No, that's, it's so, it's a really good.
But I'm willing to give you dinklage because that leaves my next pick open.
Oh.
I'm excited about that.
Oh, great.
Yeah, sure.
I also like, I believe it's Shannon's pick too.
I almost did that, but that's it going.
Or not.
Or not.
Gourley, word to you.
I'm going Moneypenny.
And I'm taking Phoebe Waller Bridge and here's why.
She's going to sexually harass Bond.
Okay.
Every time he comes in the office.
She's going to slap his ass.
If he wants it.
Well, he doesn't.
He will.
And she doesn't care.
I love that.
She's going to fleabag his ass left and right.
And I feel like if any woman could do that, I think she would get away with it.
Oh, she's so great.
If she's the harassing Money Penny, the bond title for that movie needs to be advised and consent.
All right.
And I don't need to replace her.
You don't?
No.
No, because you already did.
I already replaced her twice.
No, you do.
You do now because, oh, no, yes.
What do you mean you already replaced her twice?
The two carrots are my replacements for the two other times.
You picked Phoebe Waller Bridge?
Yes.
Who's the other person?
No, no, no.
No, no.
In the Money Penny category.
Who else picked her?
I picked her.
I selected her as well.
Corley, we got a lot of overlap, you and I.
You took my, you got your dinklage in my, Phoebe.
In your bridge.
My deed are pinklech.
Oh, no.
Matt Myro, you're going to get you picked from a bridge.
Get your dinklage off my bridge.
Phoebe Dick.
I don't care.
That's not right.
Yeah.
I didn't kill my wife.
I didn't take her dinglitch from the bridge.
I don't care.
You should.
I don't.
Matt Byro, we're over to you.
Yes, sir.
Oh, my God.
This is so fun.
You got the wrap around here.
Two picks.
Great, great, great.
Great.
Poot ticks.
Now, it's the first time it's been done.
But I'm going to go ahead.
and just go back to back on my own personal choices here.
Nice.
I'm taking my ally mentor and my American intelligence agent.
I'm going with a John Goodman as the ally slash mentor and Chris Pratt as your Felix Lider type.
Dang.
Oh, wait, so that's two bang bang bang, bang, a couple bang bang.
He did a kiss kiss, kiss, bang, bang.
It's a very American movie.
Well, it does take place.
Don't worry about it.
I'm buying a ticket.
Yeah.
In space.
Let's pick three.
Space Force.
Oh, look it in a Groupon.
Matt Gourley.
All right.
I'm going American intelligency person.
I'm going intelligentsia.
My own pick.
Felicia lighter.
Laura Dern.
Ooh.
I like it.
I like it.
I almost put her as villain after watching Big Little Lies.
She's so good in that.
I like current day Lord Durn better than like Jurassic Park Lord Dern.
How big are the little lies?
Pretty big.
Okay.
Well, they're not pretty big because they're big.
It's not pretty big little lies.
You're right.
Yeah.
How little.
Never mind.
That's terrible.
My money penny was selected.
Taken from you?
Taken.
I took it from me on the battlefield.
Yeah.
I did that. I did that.
Yeah.
So I'm going to use a commissioner suggestion for my money penny that I, that I'm very excited about.
I am a huge fan of this actor's work.
And I love sort of the gender subversion of this.
So I'm going to choose Andrew Rannells as my money penny.
Who's that?
Book of Mormon.
Girls.
So many wonderful things.
Yeah.
My logic is putting him on the list is just.
I like the idea of a money penny that's over, like what Matt is saying about Phoebe.
Yes.
And just being like, well, why can't that be a guy?
He's just obsessed with Bond and flirts with him.
And maybe Bond flirts back with him.
I would like that.
Great.
Yeah, I just love it.
I think it's hot fun.
That's very 2015.
That's hot.
2015.
Well, Gourley's super progressive.
He's always about four years ahead of this.
Sure.
Yeah.
Mark, we come to you.
I'm at the point where they're just boning in the office.
I'm going to choose song.
Oh.
This is a category where we're choosing the artist for the theme song.
Yes.
Now, when I reveal this, you're going to say, no, wait a minute, but I can explain.
I'm going with RuPaul.
Because who sang the best bond themes?
Shirley Bassi.
Shirley Bassi is a gay icon.
RuPaul, when she sings, has a Shirley Bassi theatricality to her.
And I'm not doing camp RuPaul here.
I'm doing, she's doing a Bond ballad.
She was almost going to be my villain.
That's cool.
And I think that much like Andrew Reynolds in there,
this would be a great thing.
This would get a young audience to come see at all the people that watch RuPaul's Drag Race.
I actually think I should have put her in as an actor,
but I'm using her for the song.
She'll do a cameo, a Madonna cameo.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I just noticed there's a typo in the song category.
Oh, boy. Oh, boy.
Oh, not that.
I specifically asked for sporty spies.
You did ask for sporty.
That's very different.
She is the talented scene.
Yes, that's why I think her.
She has a good bond voice.
Yes.
I know.
My fault.
It should be sport.
It's okay.
I just want people to know that in case, you know, anyone wants to take that.
So we're changing it, right?
It's scary to sporty.
That is my mistake.
Is that cool?
Is that the one that was married to Eddie Murphy?
No, scary is the one I was married to Eddie Murphy.
Why are you interested in that pick?
Are you making a different picture?
Oh, it's not.
Is it my turn?
It is your turn.
Oh, dang.
Okay.
You don't have to choose.
is your song. Oh, dang.
I wasn't facing it.
Oh, dang on the list.
O'Dameron?
I'm going to take
my American intelligence agent
and I picked Matthew McConaughey.
All right, all right, all right.
Because he's
so very American and
I like the, I think
it would be funny because Dave Holmes
said something in his Serenity review
that it's like ever since Matthew
McConaughey won his Oscar, he's just been
talking nonstop for years and every movie he's in is just them catching whatever he's saying.
So I like that vibe and I wanted it in my movie.
I'm into it.
Danny, you're going to get two picks.
Okay.
Poo ticks.
There's so much.
I got the poo ticks so bad sometimes I can't see them.
Okay.
I'm going to pick my M and I'm going to do the one I submit.
which is Idris Elba for M.
That's good.
It's a good choice.
Because I think you should have an M
that kind of scares the shit out of you.
Yeah.
And I think
he could really, really hold his own
in a scene against anyone
in a Bond film and just be like,
you better listen to what I'm saying.
So now...
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
If you have him there at M,
we need to replace him in...
Ally Mentor.
At the Ally Mentor category.
Mm-hmm.
And for that...
I'm putting in Buzz Lightyear.
No.
I'm putting in Hal Holbrook.
Whoa.
Is he still alive?
Yes, he is.
Oh my God.
I wanted to find one of the oldest living actors.
He goes and visits him in an old folks home.
He's anxious.
Can it be Hal Holbrook as Mark Twain?
He's undercover.
The only thing better than being liked is having people talk behind you.
your back.
He's got some Peter Capaldi eyebrows.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But come on.
Peter Capaldi would have been a good thing.
The gravitas he brings, you wouldn't even have to have him talk.
He could just sit in front.
You're like, oh, my God, yes.
Great.
So, Danny, it's your pick once again.
Oh, yes.
Okay, I'm going to pick.
This is so hard.
I'm going to, okay.
Are I going to pick my American intelligence agent?
which I submitted Tessa Thompson.
Interesting.
She's British, isn't she?
I believe so.
You know what's funny?
Danny,
I was so focused on going boom boom last time
that I really didn't even look down the list.
That's a fucking great choice.
Thank you.
I really like that choice.
I think maybe she could be Felix's niece or something,
but also she could just also be.
Why can't she be Felix?
Her own agent.
I'm just saying.
I don't know.
She certainly,
she can internationally fight aliens.
We've discovered recently.
Some of America.
No one discovered that.
I heard about it.
We're aware.
All right.
That's the top of round five.
We're coming back around, Shannon.
Okay.
I know that this was put it in as a silly choice, but I like it, and I think I can make it work in my movie.
So for my ally mentor, I want Mr. T.
All right.
Now, let me just say what I, my thought behind Mr. T.
Yes.
Love it.
I just think that in the history of kind of modern cinema, you have the John Travolta.
Pulp Fiction comeback.
Yeah.
You have the Boogie Knights,
Bert Reynolds come back.
I was looking for an icon of the past
that like you can use him
however you want,
but my idea was like,
he doesn't have a Mohawk,
he doesn't have a mohawk,
you're watching the movie and you're like,
who is that that Bond is?
They did that with Dabney Coleman
in the Boardwalk Empire.
Yeah.
You're like, who, yeah, you're like,
wait.
And it's like, I don't know
that Mr. T really has
the chops to be doing this.
I like what he goes.
But I just like that was the spirit
of the pick and I had trouble
kind of everyone who's in line
for something like that has kind of done it
in a way. You know who hasn't, who I would love
Richard Simmons? You slick his
hair back. He's missing.
And he just, he's just like super
calm and relaxed. Yeah.
Yeah. Good luck with that.
He's missing. I know I've got him here.
He's not missing. Come on out.
He's been meditating. You're the assistant
holding him hostage. Okay. All right.
That's LAM mentor off the board. I love it.
Okay. I'm going to go back to Ally Mentor
as well.
And Idris Alba was my choice for Ally Mentor,
but I'm going to take the replacement Hal Holbrook
because that actually works with my movie
and ended up giving me a title.
So I'm going, Hal Holbrook.
Never the Twain shall meet.
Terran?
Close, close, actually.
In consonants.
I'm going to do Ally Mentor as well.
Oh, God, damn.
You know what's coming.
Oh, God.
Do you know it?
You see that double asterisk.
Oh, my motherfrey.
And I have guilt.
I have guilt about it because I'm in your home.
Yeah.
You already took my dangerous.
I've taken so much from you.
Yeah.
But I'm going to pick my pick as well.
And I'm going to use Ian McShane as my ally mentor.
That was my next pick.
It's,
that one's tough for me,
just having just watched the Deadwood movie recently and just thinking,
like when he was on,
did that Game of Thrones thing.
It was such a waste of him.
Yeah.
It's been a couple times that he had.
Him and sexy beast, like that is, he's so scary and still.
Terrific. He's like five minutes.
Yeah. And he, ever since I've been a bit of a bit of McShainitick.
Why not?
Matt Gourley, you want to eat in McShane too bad. He's off the board.
God damn it. All right. I'm going to go.
You want to go break the gadget category?
Not yet. Open?
No.
I think.
I may do secondary Bond Girl because there's one here I like so much.
Oh, that also hasn't been.
That's nice.
Yeah, nobody's picked from that yet.
I'm doing Tatiana Maslani.
I think she's amazing.
She, you know, Orphan Black.
We saw her a network on Broadway.
She's incredible.
She always likes our townland videos, so I like her for that.
She's also very nice.
Yes, she is.
I like that pick a lot, Matt.
Yeah.
And you know, like, she's going to be some kind of badass secondary bonk or like an agent of some kind.
Yeah.
She has six of them, right?
Yeah, that's right.
I get six picks for one.
Matt Meyer, we're at the end of the fifth going into the sixth.
Yeah.
Look, I'm just going to, I'm going to try to fill this out here with a.
I'm going to have to go with Q.
and I'm just, you know, I like my bumbling Hugh Grant,
so I'm taking my bumbling Hugh Grant, ladies and gentlemen.
Hugh Grant off the board.
Got it?
No one wanted him.
I'll take him.
The pick is yours here at the top of the sixth.
But also some seniority.
Like, I feel you get a bumbling, but a silver-templed Hugh Grant as Q is, is,
could be a good reprimander, too.
His glasses will always be done here.
And he kind of did it in a man from uncle.
He was really good as the guy that ran that.
Still haven't seen it.
Did you guys watch him in Paddington?
too.
Oh, yeah.
One of the best movies ever.
So good.
That was Hugh Grant's return to glory, I believe.
It is fun, too, to think of, like, he's been transferred within the intelligence community.
Now he's sort of like, I guess I'm in charge of gadgets now.
He really, like, he really had a shot at being James Bond, but, I mean, in this world, in the Bond world.
He was like, I'm going to be a double O.
It's going to be great.
He just got kicked thing to thing to thing.
Now he's an R&D, and now he's cute.
Yeah, I like that a lot.
He's not happy about it.
A little jealous of Bond.
But he's got a great 401K.
Yeah.
He's been buying stock in MI6 since he started.
So now it is your pick again.
Thank God.
Okay.
We're getting down to the categories none of us seem to care about.
So I'm just going to go ahead and take, I'm going to take you and McGregor as my James Bond.
That was my own selection.
It was a last minute selection after I found space and time was not.
Not manipulable.
So Red Fox was your first choice, right?
Actually, I wanted 1996 Kenneth Brana.
Oh, good.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Good for the Times app.
Post-Det Again Brana.
What if everybody in the Times app for one chose the same actor from a different era?
Like, I chose 1991 Kenneth Brana.
Yeah, yeah.
I think within nine years, no.
But beyond, sure.
Yeah.
So if it was like decade apart.
88, you're in.
Yeah, Henry V.
That's great.
That's it.
Two picks.
All right, Matt Goreley.
Oh, boy.
Okay, okay.
Do we want to do a little,
nobody's picked a bond girl yet,
which is blows me away.
I just think we're also delighted
by the choices up there
that we don't mind any of them.
I think everyone's going
for their bond girl.
I feel like.
They're going to get their own,
is what you're saying.
Yeah.
All right.
Now you said that.
Oh, yeah.
Just to make sure that nobody tells me
what bond girl I'm getting.
That might have been reverse psychology.
Oh, no.
Maybe I don't do that.
I dare you to pick my bonker.
Great.
Now Terran's going to rebel.
Great job.
Matt, let's have your sixth pick.
Is he on this? Can I take him?
Christ.
Christ is bond.
But only from the book of Matthew.
Oh, God. Oh, God. What do? What do I do?
Listen to your feelings, Matthew.
Okay.
I'm going to go M. And this was my second pick because I, I am.
So on the board left for M, you have.
Wait, is this my M pick?
I have, this is not right.
I have Phoebe Waller Bridge as your M, which is not.
No, no.
That's his, my M was Olivia Coleman.
Yes, that's your, I, that's your, I, that's who I submit.
I'm just making sure that the category is available.
And it is.
Yes, so, but this was my runner up for selection and someone else picked it.
I'm glad for that.
And that is Jora Mormont himself, Ian Glenn.
That's a great.
By the way, you know he talks in Game of Thrones like Calisi.
Have you heard him in interviews?
His voice is up here.
It's so strange.
Kind of a Benedict Cumberbatch.
Yeah.
That way.
Sometimes you get a little glimps of his real voice and it's weird.
Yeah.
That's a great pick though.
Thank you.
Who put that person on?
You didn't.
Wait, what?
Yeah.
Oh, I did.
I was confused.
As a villain.
Oh, so I got my M.
Yeah.
Good job.
Well done.
Also, like, talked it up a lot before you did it.
Hey, man.
This is such a good choice.
It's obvious that whoever put this person in here is not only a genius, but very handsome.
Sitting in my chair.
All right, great.
Probably doesn't have any tiny tables, this person who picks this.
Soon to have a time.
Okay.
Myra.
Do you have Olivia Coleman as your M?
That's correct, sir.
Okay.
I have it.
I had it wrong.
That's okay.
But now I see.
No.
I've seen the light.
Taryn.
I'm going to choose secondary bond girl.
Sure.
And I'm choosing Laverne Cox.
Nice.
That's good.
That's great.
It's a good one.
I love it and I'm in love with it.
Okay, I'm torn between choosing the American Intelligence Agent or my secondary Bond Girl,
but I think I'm going to do American Intelligence Agent because the game is choosing my cash for me.
I'm going to go Chris Evans.
It doesn't get much more American than Captain America.
What if he's a captain in the American intelligence?
And then he dresses like Captain America.
Flame on.
Flame off!
She added.
Okay.
No category closed out yet.
I'm going to do my cue.
And I think I'm going to take the cue I originally intended, which is Kirby Howell-Baptiste.
I think a girl cue would be really fun.
And she's having a moment.
And she's going to blow up.
I know it.
So she's cool.
I'm in my movie.
She's in every successful show out there right now.
Did that factor in for anybody?
Just the like, this person doesn't need a lot more help.
Yeah.
When I was finding, people, I was like, it's very curious to do this with like just right now in mind.
Yeah.
In five years, this might be completely weird.
and dated. You might be like, oh, man.
Yeah, like, who was that person?
Yeah, there might be some of them. I did definitely, like,
scan Game of Thrones and Deadwood and just thinking, like, what, what are great actors in there?
What?
Looking down at your list is like 95 Game of Thrones actors in the list.
Gadget, just a dragon.
Car, just a carriage?
The bear, the bear and the maiden fair?
Why does it say?
Rains of Castamere.
Why do you say Mighty Steak?
Half of cold pain.
Is that Italian?
It must be a Ferrari, yeah.
Mad and, Matt and, Mad, Mad,
Cheapy podcast.
Sandy.
Okay.
You're getting two picks here.
I think that an ally mentor, sorry,
ally mentor should be somebody with a face and a voice.
You feel like you can trust, right,
when you meet them.
So I'm picking my pick, Ken Watanabe.
Okay.
That means I'm stuck with Larry Fishburn.
I mean, I have some trust issues.
Stuck!
Stuck!
And then I'm going to go ahead and pick my money penny.
You must strike a fear in the heart of a good.
My monny penny is going to be Rose Leslie.
Oh, that's a good one.
Because she's cute as hell.
You know nothing.
And I think we could really use like a redhead money penny.
I want to see it.
Samantha Vaughn was a red head.
That's true.
Come on, guys.
That's true.
But her hair color changed.
Annie played Money Penny for one movie.
Remember?
What?
It's a hard knock life.
You can see M tomorrow.
Mommy, he's all booked up today, so come back tomorrow.
You'll see M.
Your passport is here along with your tickets.
Shand.
Oh, we're back to me already.
Yeah, I was looking up because I don't know who one of the people left in the
Mahany penny slots is.
Who's that?
Casual.
Sharon Horgan.
From casual.
Yeah.
Castrophic shows I've never seen.
She'd be good.
Divorce?
Oh, that's right.
She was good in it.
Great.
Is she the lead in?
Oh, she's the meaning.
She's also like, she's really good in game night.
Yeah.
That's what, yeah.
Oh, does that what you're saying?
She's funny.
Yeah.
So funny.
Yeah.
For the reasons Matt likes, and I think everybody would like Phoebe Waller Bridge.
I think Sharon Horace.
Morgan is very capable of the same sort of just taking the piss out of him.
Okay.
I think you talked her up enough.
I want her then.
I shall have her.
So if the category is all taken except for one and you know that's yours, do we just take it?
Does that count as a turn?
It counts as a turn, so leave it to the end.
I would say, actually, you should get it quick.
You should leave it until the very, very end.
All right, well, I'm going to go Bond Girl.
I like it.
And I'm going with an actress who I did just see on television
who's going to win all the awards this year,
who was a national treasure and maybe her generation's Merrill Street,
but maybe even better, Michelle Williams.
Wow.
Are you talking Fossi Verdon?
If you watch Fossi Verdon,
you don't have to be a theater geek like me.
Fossi Verdin is a monumental achievement.
She is so good that I've watched episodes.
I watched them twice in a row because she's spectacular.
And everyone's good on it,
but she's going to get every award.
I feel bad for Christina Applegate this year
for Dead to Me.
because she deserves one,
but Michelle Williams,
just give her everything.
Yeah.
I almost had Sam Rockwell
as my American intelligence.
That's fun.
That's good.
That's cool.
I almost had Ram Sokwell as my Jamesville.
Now you're talking.
And Tao,
you're knocking.
That guy's crazy.
Karen Tillam, we come to you.
Are you related to Karen Gillen?
I'm going to select my M.
My M was...
My Ambialic is your M?
Yep.
That's fucking great.
Thank you so much.
fucking hot off Big Bang
Yep
This is 100% the best
And I'm
Kind of stealing
Because I have to
I originally wanted
Olivia Coleman as my M
But I'm gonna go ahead
And take Christopher Plummer
That's good
I'm sorry
Don't be sorry
I'm sorry
He was on my list
Because originally
When we were going through
All of Space and Time
I was gonna pick
Like Sound of Music era
Christopher Plummer
Because he's so beautiful
But like he works
As the old man
It's M2
So
Don't think Christopher
Plummer Plummer looks like an older Michael Fassbender.
Yeah.
Yeah. They could be father.
The drama of Spacey was originally cast.
And now they're just digitally putting Plummer's face over Spacey's body.
They're taking Michelle Williams money and paying plumbers.
Yes, exactly.
To pay.
Oh, it's to me.
Rob Williams to pay Plummer.
Oh, Christ.
Oh, Jesus.
Oh, Christ.
I'm going to go with my hench man.
Yeah, that's the move.
Tormond from Game of Thrones, the red-headed giant Christopher heaved you.
Good one.
He'd be a great henchman.
Yeah.
Scary.
Yeah.
But a little funny.
Horny.
Yeah.
Horney.
Drinking from a big giant teat.
And I don't mean like a large breast, but a giant's teat.
Like the milk in the Lashira?
Yes.
Exactly.
I had some of that at Galaxy's Edge.
It was $900.
You had to milk it out of the whatever the sea cow.
Yeah.
That would be amazing if that was true.
Great water dragon.
The sea cow store.
she is.
You see pretty okay with all this.
What?
All this Star Wars stuff.
Yeah.
You all right with it?
I'm okay.
Okay.
Matt Byra?
Well, look, again.
Gosh.
We're so, I'm so down to, I don't have a ton to do here.
Yeah, you're locked in and too.
Pretty much locked in.
So, I'm just going to take my Bond girl, Uma Thurman.
Nice.
She's capable.
She really doesn't need bond, but she takes pity on him.
And they have some sort of relationship.
Ooh.
And they watch Gattaca together.
Don't make their stunt drive.
I won't.
Absolutely not.
Yeah, but they watch Gattaca.
And in that universe, the leads of Gannica are still the same.
It's weird.
Nice.
You get another pick here on the wraparound.
Oh, thank God.
I'm taking my gadget guys, a drone that is controlled with,
A smartphone, but also has a gun on it.
So I'm going to read that's exactly verbatim.
A drone that is controlled with his smartphone, comma, but also has a gun on it, period.
Does the drone have a gun or the smartphone have a gun?
The drone has the gun.
It's duct taped to it.
Is that the sponsor?
It's slapped together in the field.
It's slapped together in the field, yeah.
But it's a gadget.
And, you know, when I was trying to figure out what the gadget would be in my dream bond,
movie. I was like
people like drones.
It appears on here twice. There's a drone
on your drones. Yeah, but my drone is
very different because it has a gun on
it. Are we doing
titles and synopsies again? We are right?
I think we probably should. Yeah, okay.
Matt Goreley, we come to you in the eighth
round. In that case, I'll take my gadget
I guess because it feels like it could be a plot
point and it's the only
gadget that's grounded in any sort of
reality.
It's a pen that dispenses drops of sodium pentothal
What's the purpose of that?
To get people to tell a truth mark
Truth serum?
It's truth serum.
Clarification, not everybody's a goddamn chemistry student.
Make sure you cover your drink when you leave the bar with him around.
It's a reverse roofie.
Oh, yeah.
I don't know if that logic.
Taryn, hi Mark.
Coming on down to Taryn Town.
Thanks for knowing my name.
I'm going to pick my Bond Girl,
my submission
and I'm taking Lupita Njongo
That was my second choice
So good.
That's a good one is my
Bond gal
Oh, so me
I got fun on it
Yeah I watched Salas mate
So my secondary Bond Girl
Got bumped
Oh
So the one that's replacing mine
I'm not
I don't know who I know who that is
But I don't know
Wait a minute
You didn't pick a secondary
In my column
The Secondary Bond Girl
Is it?
Yes, yes, yes, exactly.
They're all my own-
their own-n-gill submissions.
Well, I'm choosing the best one
for a Bond girl
because this is the truth.
I'm choosing a very talented
and sexy woman we don't know yet
because the month this movie opens,
she will be on the cover of Vanity Fair
as the next big thing.
And then after the movie's on video,
we'll never hear from her again.
So this is what I'm looking for,
a very talented and sexy woman.
I really wanted that one.
I like that so much.
Okay, I'm going to have to take
my gadget because it also
is important to my movie and that's a
rocket bird scooter adapter.
Just the adapter?
Yeah, because they're everywhere.
So Bonn just needs to slap this
thing on any bird scooter and it turns
into a rocket.
I thought you meant it was like the adapter that you
plug it into the wall to charge it.
No, it makes it a rocket.
Yeah. In my mind, it adapts it into a rocket scooter.
That's really cool. In my mind,
what had happened in the movie was he
had no cash.
So he decided to start charging bird scooters
to earn enough to get his ticket
to Malaysia.
But it's a rocket charger
so it takes 10 minutes.
See, I saw it as a way to track the bad guy.
The henchman is using a bird scooter.
You could have been to the adapter.
The adapter tags the scooter.
I was stupid.
I just thought you were plugging it into a wall.
It could have been any of these things.
It still can.
Maybe it is.
Yeah.
Danny, we come to you.
I'm just blown away by that.
still. Okay, I'm
gonna do Q
I suggested Ellen Tutic. I'm taking him.
Oh, that means I'm stuck with, I'm good with that.
I'm stuck with, that was ever stuck with Steve.
Are you? No.
Shh, don't tell them.
Yeah, he's stuck on Q.
My ding goes is stolen. So I got
Stephen Fry, I like that. It's pretty good.
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
The Gonzo is still a favorite.
Oh, oh, shit, you're right.
You blew it, Matt. Again, stuck on Q.
You blew it.
Oh, my God. I really blew it.
The first.
Oh, my God.
Psychology, everyone.
And he really wants God.
Do you want to take that back?
All right.
Well, you can't.
Oh, shit.
Shit.
I did.
So Alan Tudik is off the board.
And now it's the round nine.
Danny is up.
Okay.
So you didn't choose anything yet.
No, no, no, no.
There's two left, yeah.
I feel like I know where Mark's going with that.
You know what?
No, you don't.
Ooh.
Okay, I'm taking my bond girl, Rachel Weiss.
Rachel Weiss.
Do you guys think it would have been
cool if Rachel Weiss was in a Daniel Craig Bond movie?
Yes.
I thought up my entire movie with Rachel Weiss as the Bond Girl
with Daniel Craig in mind.
So it's going to be a weird to pitch it now.
This isn't like a little middle finger to people who can't be in this.
Like, oh, you got replaced by Henry Cavill, but
I get to be in a Bond movie now.
Eat it.
Is it going to be weird at home?
Yeah.
You stay home with the key or home anyway.
Maybe.
I imagine their home's pretty weird.
All right, that's round.
We're starting round nine.
Shannon, we come to you.
Okay, I need to.
Leave.
Wait, I have a question.
I'm so sorry.
I really have to go.
I have a question, though.
I've got a Harry Potter draft.
Are there two choices available in the M category?
Yes, there are.
Okay.
Then I would like Clive Owen for my M, please.
That's sweet.
God love you.
I think he's cool.
There's a bunch of stuff that's already chosen for me.
That's awesome.
Okay, I'm going to go gadget.
Mm-hmm.
And I'm going to, I made the joke that I heard off earlier that I wish I had picked Inspector Gadget as the gadget.
But I'm going to switch up and not pick the gadget I chose.
I'm going to take the holographic facial projector bow tie.
That sounds very cool.
Oh, for some reason I read that as a projector that gives you a bow tie.
Like he's not addressed well.
That's why I thought some of these were jokes.
I hate to do that, but that works for the cast.
Can I just pause?
The first time I ran it up at the same thing.
This is a clever way to do what Mission Impossible's been doing for a long time.
Well, yeah.
And it also is like the Civil War, Captain America Civil War, they have, they reveal that technology.
Oh, that's right.
Yeah.
And it's cheaper than full-head latex masks.
I'm in.
Slightly.
And you can just turn it off.
Yeah.
So I guess more than one person took their gadgets.
Seriously. I guess you're right. I apologize.
It's taking.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, what are you doing?
My drone has a gun on it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Taryn, you're up.
Okay.
It's getting serious now, guys.
Oh, yeah.
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kind of hectic.
It's getting kind of a heck.
Okay.
It's getting kind of a heck.
I am going to pick, I'm going to pick my song,
my musician to do the opening song,
and I'm using my pick, and I'm taking the Rolling Stones.
I can't believe they've never done one yet.
What's that going to be like?
Kind of painted blackish in my head.
Now I'm on board.
Thank you.
Previously not on board.
And then, yeah.
You're always hoping how to shuffle.
Sorry.
Again, I thought I could use dead people.
I wanted Tom Petting the Heartbreakers to do one.
Heartbreaking.
Keith Richards is basically dead.
Matt, you have your pick.
I feel like I know where you're going.
I'm locking down Stephen Fry for Q.
No Muppets in my bond, thank you.
In my bond.
It could be just with the franchise needs, though.
That's true.
The boost that both franchises made.
If you saw that trailer, even if you weren't going to see the movie,
you could go see that movie.
Or Yoda as M.
He's just in it so briefly.
Yeah.
Like, I feel like that's what you can get away with it.
That would be hilarious.
And he's just behind it.
You can also say here's the kit from Q.
We had to let him go.
What was the complaint?
Too many chickens.
And you're just out of the window.
You can just see Gonzo being,
ay,
Cynthia, don't put her down.
Is he a weird that Gonzo had pet chickens
and he was a chick,
he was a bird himself?
He's a weirdo.
He's an alien.
He's a weirdo.
I thought he's a bird.
No, he's an alien.
Really?
It was weird for you.
He's not a bird?
I'll take him for Q.
I want to.
a birdless movie.
I hate birds, but I love
Muppets. Matt Myra. He's still blue
and cross-eyed? No, I'm good with Fry.
I bet you're talking about Frye.
Nobody wanted my henchman.
Luckily, he's been sitting there the whole time.
I'm taking him. It's Tom Hardy.
Tom Hardy. Another guy that I think
belongs in these movies. He's
on my replacement list. I just didn't get to him.
You know, he was originally cast
as Elton John Rocket Man.
That took too long to make.
That's for the best probably.
It sounds weird.
It's too big.
He's too big.
Did anyone know that that was a musical before they saw it?
Yes.
Yes.
Did you not?
No.
Did you see any trailers?
Yeah, yeah.
It's a musical.
It's a musical biopic trailer.
Of course the music's going to be thrown in the trailer.
It is a fantasy musical.
I didn't know that.
Okay.
First movie my son saw, ladies and gentlemen.
He went to a mommy and me, Rocket Man.
Yay.
Did he make it to the whole thing?
According to my wife, it was not pretty.
Could I go to a mommy and me with my mom?
Yeah.
Why not?
You should.
That'd be okay.
And I can just cry the whole time.
Commissioner?
And breastfeeding's okay.
Oh, I'll allow it.
Thank you.
Then yes.
Matt Byro, we're back to you.
Round 10.
Round 10, everyone's favorite round, of course.
I'm going to go.
Here's the thing.
I feel like.
With Alec Baldwin.
There's been a cake walk here.
No.
podcast.
Just like running down the list, getting all of their choices that they wanted.
And since I, you know, I had to do a fill in.
But then when I saw this name on this list, I was like, that is actually fucking brilliant.
Like a lot of these choices.
I'm taking the song, Janelle Monette.
I'm sorry, Danny.
I'm sorry.
It had to happen because the idea of her with a horn section behind her.
Up until this point, Danny had gotten all of her.
That's exactly right.
Someone had to rock the boat.
We can't let her walk away with this one too.
We should have been more aggressive towards Stanley, I think, if we want.
So we're at round 10 for Matt Goreley.
I'm going to choose a car and I'm going to steal somebody's.
Oh, that's, that is so mean.
I'm taking the Bentley Continental GT because isn't that his original?
You.
Dirty Rascal.
I don't mind saying
I don't mind saying
You untoward brigand
In that it was not specified
What year this continental would be
Well then I'll specify
Frankly I don't know that I see him driving
Yeah as a stupid
No I'm assuming this is because like in the Fleming books
He drives an old Bentley that he has spruced up
It's a really old one
It looks like a roadster
So that's what this is going for the 19
The 2019
This movie starts at Bob's big boy
In Toluca Lake
I love that too
What did you put?
No.
All right.
Okay.
Taryn.
That's fine.
That's fine.
All right.
I've been pushed around for too long, Mark.
I've had my gadget taken from me.
I've had my car taken from me in the last go-around alone.
So I am taking a car that is not mine.
I am taking a Tesla that turns into a submarine and a helicopter.
How is that not the top?
car that anyone would take.
It's too silly.
You love mask.
What are you talking about?
You love the show mask.
Yeah, but I don't want my mask in my barn.
No one knows what lies behind a masquerade.
Mass.
Always right.
We got to cover that.
Guys, what does M-A-S-K stand for?
Mobile Armored Strike Command.
Thank you.
With a K.
With a K.
Yeah.
Mobile Armored Strike K-K command.
They never get into it, but masks are really.
Their mask is actually a hood.
They're good guys.
A lot of good people on both sides of masks.
They don't have a racist bone.
They're just worried about their jobs with their cars.
What does Venom stand for?
Very early nutrient ogres menacing.
Very evil.
Very early neutral ogres menacing.
Nutrient.
Nutrient.
Very.
early nutrient ogres medicine.
You're being a real nutrient ogre right now.
Okay.
Well, since my car got stolen,
I'm going to go with a car that actually is a little bit better for the story I'm having.
I'm going to go with the 1963 split window corvette.
That's a great car.
But it was split by a bullet.
Yeah, nobody did say how the windows were stripped.
What is a split window?
I don't know.
In 1963, the hardtop corvettes, they had a rear window that was split down the middle.
Where are you mad at us?
the middle.
And it became a very,
they only did it with the one year.
It became a very rare
saun after car.
Ooh,
I like it.
Clearly.
And I love it when you can see it.
Bob's big boy in Toluca later.
Absolutely.
You can actually see 13 of them.
Shannon.
That's a great looking car.
It's weird.
Let me see.
It's got like a weird.
It looks like a hot wheel.
Oh yeah.
I like it.
Purdy.
That's pretty.
That's a hot wheels if I've ever seen.
Yeah, it looks like a hot wheels.
I'd like to drive that.
Billy Bob Thorndyke
I'm available
I got my finger in this dike so don't
splash y'all
Wow
Hey Billy could you come over here just for a second
I don't know what's it but okay
I got some fresh fried potatoes
I want some of them french fried potatoes
Oh come on over come
I'm Denmark's greatest villain
What happened
The down broke?
You'll have to listen back.
Shannon, can I option that right now?
Certainly.
Shannon, is it still your pick?
Slingdike?
If I had a dime for every time someone did that whole routine.
That's a party at the dinosaur.
Billy Bob Thorndike putting his hole in a dyke and a guy who hates Denmark,
gets him to come over so he can flood Denmark.
It's still less confusing than Quantum of Solace.
But still water-related.
Yeah.
God damn.
Is this done?
Shannon.
No, not quite.
I'm going to do secondary bond girl, and I'm going to take Alexandra to Dadario.
Nice.
Cool.
She was very good in San Andreas.
That's never been said before.
Uh-oh.
All right, Danny, you got two picks.
Okay.
I'm taking my car.
cars. I'm taking
the 1965 Shelby Cobra.
Not very
spacious. I don't
think it needs to be.
It's just him driving it probably.
Maybe another person. Probably just getting from A to B.
Looking good doing it.
Got some errands to run.
Okay, and then since my
song got stolen,
I'm going to take Regina Spector.
Look at that. We traded.
Oh, okay, okay. Kind of
worked out. Still mad, though.
Well, I want to
I'm not petting originally, but Regina, I feel like.
Shannon, we're back to you.
Whoops.
I'm in.
Just for the record, my iPad, apparently I can touch through the screen,
and I almost purchased a 63 Corvette for $52,000.
I think it's going to.
No, they didn't want me to check out.
I almost spent so much money.
Oh, and also it opened up a lot of porn pages.
By accident.
that we're already open.
It literally, it almost made me back.
Why is the FBI here?
I haven't picked my Bond Girl yet.
You sure have.
I...
Oh, that was horrible.
I'll take the Bond Girl that I originally wanted,
and that's Amy Adams just because she's my favorite and everything.
What can't she do?
Right?
Why can't she be a bond girl, too?
This is a little...
For me, this one was a little like...
I'm not sure.
He's a little too wholesome American.
Holesome.
Yeah, so I would be curious how she would fit into
I think she can do it.
She's no Denise Richards.
Who is?
Denise Richards isn't even
Denise Richards.
I feel like Amy Adams got to play
the hot girl a lot in her early career
and then she started getting like
different roles where she became more serious
but like her early work is very much
like hot girls.
I see her like a gorgeous.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Annabelle.
Was she Annabelle?
No.
I don't think you're thinking.
That's a dull.
I think you're thinking of a doll.
Oh, okay.
A doll?
I will tell you when I was looking for that
comeback, that Hollywood comeback person,
there's some lists out there that I perused
and a name that came up a lot is Denise Richards.
But she's very bad.
She's on the housewives now.
She's great though,
and undercover brother as the white she devil.
She's very funny.
She's good and wild things.
She's good and dropped and gorgeous.
Her one giant love actually
just came up again for the second time.
All right, Mark.
I feel like Allison Janie would do good in a bond.
I think all my picks that are left over, I'm forced to take.
Yeah, so you're, it's just, we're living from here on out.
Should I just run down my whole rundown?
No, we'll go in order.
I want to know how, which order you want these three picks in.
Makes sense?
Oh, okay.
What's most important to you, an M, a Q or a MNipinny.
Of the choices that are left, one is obvious.
One is really weird.
And one is someone I didn't pick, but I think is great.
So I'm going to go with Moneypenny and I'm going to take Samarrow weaving.
I like it.
Since that category is done, some more alternates that didn't make it.
I have Lily James.
Who's Lily James?
She's.
Mama Mia.
She's in baby driver.
She's Deborah.
She's Cinderella.
She's Cinderella in our house.
I got Cynthia Arrivo.
Who?
Oh, yeah.
She's in, she's a Broadway actress.
She was in color purple.
She's in color purple, bad times at El Royale.
Oh, yes, yes, yes, the singer, yes.
She's amazing.
She's fantastic.
Yes.
And I think that'd be fun.
And then I have Aquafina.
Oh, yeah.
I love that.
Like a sassy.
I love that.
Fun.
Don't.
It's like Kevin Gonzo.
Yeah.
All right, Taryn.
Huh.
I am going to pick a gadget.
Yeah.
and this is a real tantrum pick.
So, Danny, forgive me.
But I'm just going to take a ground drone
and I'm going to decide what that is.
What is a drone drone?
It's just to him.
I mean, I can whisper my explanation
of what it is to you.
I got it.
What was a ground drone?
Wait a minute.
Okay, well, okay.
It was going to be a little ball
that can roll around.
You can move it with your smart watch.
Like a BBA without a tank.
It is a BBA.
without a head, thank you.
And it also has a little camera in the top
and it can record.
So it is a BBA.
Yeah.
I thought it was like ground beef.
It was going to be cute as hell.
Not anymore.
Ground beef.
It's not that anymore.
I'll strike it from my pitch.
Well, let me say the ground drum does have a predecessor
and a view to a kill.
That's right.
The sharper image.
And tremors.
Yeah.
And tremors.
I just realized why you guys do everybody's picks that they're all in collars.
Yeah, they're in a call.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've had donuts.
I did not shuffle them up.
I thought about it, but I didn't do it.
It's okay.
It was still fun.
You've done such a great job.
Thank you for doing that.
Matt Gourley.
Let's round this sucker out.
Well, it's the only one left that isn't chosen for me.
So it's my choice.
I'm very happy with it.
Song.
I'm going Nico case.
I feel like she's got that kind of reverby spy style.
Give me an example of a Nico case on the.
you think fits into a bond film?
Well, I think...
Like, man?
Yeah, no, I think more of her, like,
torch songs.
Torch, yeah, yeah.
But, like, assuming it would be kind of, you know,
produced with the score,
the person who does the score,
which, you know, I always want those two things integrated.
Yeah.
Her voice, oh, man.
I think her with, like, a very reverby, tenor guitar.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
I'm into it.
Yeah.
Love it.
Matt, Myra, believe these...
Oh, they're not your final chip picture.
three pictures. That's right. Thank you
for reminding me.
Just saying.
I would like to
choose a car
and quite frankly
that 250 G.T. Luso
is
just wonderful. Thank you.
So I'm taking it. That was a Steve McQueen
car. That's how I found it. I don't know shit about
cars. You know what?
When I saw that that was your column after I deciphered it immediately, I was like, that's a lot
of detail for a car for Matt.
He must have had help.
No, no, it was just like, but it must be a car that you loved.
I'd never seen it before.
Okay.
And let's see, what else is left for me?
You have a secondary bond girl and a villain.
You're locked into the villain.
I am.
Who's my villain?
Danzel?
No.
No.
Michael Shannon.
Oh, sure.
That's a good one.
Then I'll take Shannon for some reason.
Who's picked?
What's that?
Oh, yeah.
That's shocking.
Who did you take?
Because you don't care about your secondary bond girl, I guess.
You'll take either.
I don't mind either.
You'll take either one.
All right.
I mean, maybe like a...
Yeah, I don't care.
All right.
After a very talented and sexy woman that we don't know yet was taken,
I felt like what's the point?
Yeah, I got you.
Matt Corley.
I'm going to do my bond girl in Dira Varma,
who plays...
What's her name, Martel in Game of...
What's her name, Martel?
She's Elia Martel.
She's on Luther.
I love her.
She's really getting Luther.
Yeah, she's the snake, mama, mama snake.
She's good.
Oh, I love her.
She's a, uh, torchwood as well.
Yeah.
She's good.
Yeah.
Mama Cass, who, who.
Imagine her paired up with Michael Fastbender.
You're having some good looking children.
Some good looking pups.
That's the sound of them slither out.
Oh, boy.
Yeah.
Turns.
Save us.
No, no, no, no.
I'm...
Put it right?
Yeah.
More, Matt, Goerley, more.
I submit my time to Mr. Goerley.
Somebody puts down a candle skin rug
and opens up a bottle of catchdown
and pours it all over in a rub fest that you haven't seen some Cincinnati Mike
scraped off a brick dick and waited our tables.
And worked at a restaurant as the wait for D.
Excuse me.
Coming through points.
And that's my Bond movie synopsis.
How does catchdown get everyone?
I am going to select my American Intelligent Agent.
He's one of my favorite working actors, I think, like top five in the world right now.
Conce?
Michael Pena.
He's great.
Strongly considered him a Furrowick as well.
How strongly, though, you didn't get him.
I didn't write him down.
And if you need to get that little NIA on your computer.
computer, you just hold down the end.
You hold way down the end.
You select the middle one.
Is Enya up for grabs?
Enye.
The little Nya.
I'm taking Enya for my song.
Oh,
oh.
Say, away.
Your movie will have more Orinoco flow than anyone else's.
That's the title.
Mark.
Ask your doctor about Orinoco flow.
Okay.
And if we can't switch out any of the forced ones that we're taking?
No.
No.
Okay.
Then I'm going with Anthony.
Hopkins for him.
I found so sad about it.
I mean, that's, it was
1998 Anthony Hopkins.
He's great, but it's just,
I'm with you.
You know,
we're not doing trades, are we?
I don't think we are.
We cannot open us up to trade.
Shannon, it'd be nine hours.
What about coerced?
What about theft?
Muscled threats.
Shannon, you have a car and a song to choose.
Yeah, and I don't get to choose.
I mean, they're my,
they're my picks, which is fine.
I'm going to explain my car pick.
First of all, because I don't know anything about cars.
And also everybody's like, everybody's emails were leading me to believe that people were maybe going to make silly choices to sabotage other people.
I did not know.
You guys clearly didn't do that.
I don't see what is silly about this practicality right here.
I just need to know color because it was yellow.
I specified that it was yellow in the email.
It's a 2003 Nissan Exeterra because when I was 15, that is the car that I asked for.
for my birthday.
Just because it was the brightest one that you saw.
Because it was like bright and it had like a rack on the top and it looked sporty and cool.
Remember the commercials with Lisa Katera?
The least them, what's his name?
The guy that did Boston Public.
David E. Kelly in the Chicago Hope, his show,
he put a character in named Lisa Katera because there were the commercials for you.
You should Lisa Katera.
Oh.
I didn't realize.
Shannon, I'm looking down the car list.
Oh.
And these movies, except for yours, had better happen in a goddamn city.
Yeah.
Because if it's out in the rough stuff.
Right.
I mean, unless you have a Tesla that turns into a helicopter, you are screwed.
Totally.
I think I'll go where I want to go, thank you.
Oh, got some studio notes on our film, Dickman.
Good luck, old Corvette.
Look, I don't know what you're saying, but they may escape on a drone.
that has a gun.
Okay.
Danny, let's close it out.
Okay.
The second he goes underground, the duct tape rips.
The gun is just left in the dirt.
Where's the gun? I need it.
But it also had a gun.
Why did you tape the gun to the drone?
This tape is really strong.
Chris Pratt's character.
That's the real gadget.
That's the real gadget.
It's the tape.
Okay, I'm taking secondary bond.
To secondary bond, girl.
I'm going to do, I don't know how to pronounce it.
Sonoya Misuno.
Who's that?
Like Google.
And she was in Ex Machina.
Ex Machina.
She's great.
She's great. She's beautiful.
That dance scene in Ex Machina is the best.
Like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
She's in something else, too, that I really was like.
She looks like someone who it casts as a bun girl.
Yes, she does.
What else did I have?
I had a bunch for this.
Zoe Saldana.
That's one where I went like, you were in the Marvel universe.
Like, I like, I like her a lot.
Star Trek universe and the Avatar universe.
And West?
No, no, no, no.
No.
Oh, here's my other choices that I had for this that didn't make it.
Michelle Pfeiffer.
Oh.
As who?
As a secondary girl.
That's cool.
I had Charlize Theron.
Yeah.
Another one that's like, yeah, I don't think you'd do it.
My original pitch to Mark was I wanted Emma Thompson as my M and my villain.
They were twins.
Oh.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
And then Leslie Jones.
Oh, fun.
That's cool.
That's loud.
I like it.
I like it.
All right.
So we're back to Shannon.
No, we're not.
Danny has two.
Danny's got a gadget.
I think it's my last pick.
Danny's got a gadget.
The only gadget left.
I can't believe it.
It's a laser pointer.
That's actually a laser.
But a laser pointer is a laser.
A laser gun.
Like it can burn you like thing.
Okay.
Okay.
So it's like what of those grain run, the great ones that you can't.
There might be a scene where Bond has to distract a cat.
Yeah.
Or helicopter pilot.
What if he has to distract Blofeldt cat?
Yeah.
And then cut it in half.
She's going to win again.
I love it.
Shannon, you're going to get a...
I get my choice.
I get my choice.
Which was sporty Spice slash Mel C.
To be my songstress because she was the most talented member of the Spice Girls.
And she has that, she has that graduation.
Jam. Is that right? That's vitamin C.
Wait.
She's the, she's saying the verse, she's saying the verse,
uh, if you want my future, forget my past. Uh-huh. Yeah, that's her right.
Yeah, she, and she also contributed heavily to the bend at like Beckham soundtrack.
She's, she had like a bit of a club career after that anyway. She's British and a power
ballad. Is vitamin C available? Probably.
She made me a mocha at Starbucks this week.
Go on.
We remember
I don't know it
All the times we
Spent together
Real song
Yeah
And as our lives change
Come whatever
No one knows what lies
Behind the masquerade
Whatever
What happens I'm
Come up for the rest of our lives
How we gotta make we be 25
I wanted to see
I'm a little surprised
I guess it wouldn't work that well
But if anyone could take on a Bond song with a new twist,
it would be Pulitzer Prize winner Kendrick Lamar.
Oh, wow.
Kendrick on there.
My honorable mentioned song people were Nina Simone, but she's dead.
Oasis.
Portugal, the man.
Billy Bragg.
Portugal, the woman.
I had prints on the list, but.
Yeah, I wanted Amy Winehouse without, but no dead.
Yeah, Amy Winehouse was, yeah.
All right, Mark, it's time to make the music.
It's time to do that.
And luckily I can make this work.
But Gonzo.
Godso is Q.
I'm going to do it.
I'm falling more in love with that as a choice.
It's such a brief moment in the mood.
And your movie, maybe.
Oh, you're.
Nobody picked Lifehouse for,
I just assumed everybody would.
The other Q choice I had was Keenan Thompson.
Oh, fun.
Putting Keenan in there.
That's cool.
This is a little goofballery.
Come on.
All right, Taryn, it's your choice now.
It's not really a choice.
It's not a choice.
I am forced or honored to pick my submission for Bond,
Mr. Colin Farrell.
You saved that so long.
I made one.
Yeah, I know, yeah.
Well, we had four bonds taken to the first round.
It's a little older.
It's easy to wait that long.
But it doesn't look at, he doesn't look at.
He's been playing like a sad, hot dad lately,
and it's really working for me
like in saving Mr. Banks
I didn't see Dumbo
but like
he's amazing
so good
I love him
really talented
he's genuinely talented
and his
him and in Bruges
is one of my favorite
performances ever
he's just cursed by being hot
so no one else
now that he's becoming a character
he's getting wrinkles in gray here
he's getting some
boy days are over
yeah
yeah
he's kind of notorious
I love them in Miami Vice
I love that movie
I love it
him in my, I love that.
We're gonna do that as a, the go fast boats.
Go, I gotta get two Go Fast Boats.
We're gonna do that backyard movie at Miami Vice.
Oh,
I like, but I don't know if I control him.
Do you want to date us?
You want to do business with us.
Go Fast Boats.
Have you guys seen Tiger Land?
His first movie?
Yeah, great.
So good.
He's so good.
Matt Goreley.
I have the best one.
Thanks, guys.
I'm stuck with Larry Fishburn.
I just feel like he's,
I'm sorry, Shannon.
I just, it's okay.
He's used as this role in the Matrix and John Wick.
I understand that.
For a reason.
That's fair.
For ally mentor.
An animal.
I just really like him.
Yeah.
I'll make work of it.
I'll do something.
You'll make work of it?
Yeah.
I'll make work.
Some of them.
My other ally mentors were, I had Denzel on that list, too.
If we couldn't get him into the villain spot, we'd get him in the ally mentor.
Interesting.
So are we done?
No.
Oh, I also had Rebel Wilson as much as.
That's cool.
All right.
I think this is it, right?
We're done.
Matt's got to pick Solange.
Matt's got to pick his secondary bond girl, which is Solange.
Done.
I like the idea of the musician actor crossover.
I don't know that she's done any movies, though.
I think she's real out there pop music.
All right, so now we take a break and we come up with a title in a brief synopsis.
Let's see.
Oh, I have some other picks.
For James Bond, this is dumb.
The Rock.
That is dumb.
Daniel Kaluua.
I thought about him.
Because he's English, right?
Yes, he is.
Also, Michael Dorman, who is in Patriot, is the lead actor in Patriot.
Great show.
He's a little sleepy, I think, but I think it would be a fun bond.
So is, what's his face?
I like Bond Girl.
I got Sleepy the Dwarf.
Oh.
Ivan Stravsky.
Dorf on Gall.
Strahawrowski from Joe
He could use the dead folk
She's she's
She's uh
Hammaid's tail
And Chuck
And Dexter
Joseph finds us
I've never watched
You never watch the handmade's tale
I think it's very clear
I've watched the foot butler's
head
It's very clear Matt
What you watch
Based on
Matt's list is
Game of Thrones
With two other people
A little bit of dead ones
Like
When I read your list man
I was like, at some point, was there a 1963 Ferrari parked next to that Starbucks cup?
Everyone was talking about.
All right. Take it easy, guys.
Game of Thrones is over.
We got to get these people some work.
I've got the title for your James Bond movie, HB.O.7.
Oh, man.
We got some henchmen here.
What about an Andy circus in a digitally composite?
Of course.
What if he's a fucking chimpanzee?
Or just some kind of, you know, like he's got some crazy.
He's been burned with acid and he's, what if he's a motion capture actor.
That's what I was thinking.
Did you see Longshot?
Did he's out on the loose with a bunch of ping pong balls?
Yeah, he plays.
He plays Rupert Murdoch basically in Longshot.
And I didn't know who it wasn't.
Who's that old character actor?
He's amazing and it's him in prosthetics.
Oh, wow.
And it's an amazing performance.
It's a best make-up.
What if you get 95 Brana, but it's Circus.
Yes.
Oh, right.
Done.
I saw him at the deli the other day.
95 Kennebron.
Andy Circus.
Oh, both have Andy Circus.
I like American Intelligence Age, John David Washington.
Who's that?
Denzel son.
Oh.
like Black Plainsman.
I thought Rob Blaney.
It's just a goofball.
Oh, my God.
Let's put Rob.
Does he essentially,
I love this.
What is he playing in Deadpool too, Rob?
Super Dad.
And he plays like Chuck or Todd or something.
Yeah, it's just like a guy who answered an app.
It's really funny.
It's great.
I haven't seen.
All right.
I think that,
those are my sort of secondary, secondary picks.
Now, do we have to choose titles from existing words again, man?
We didn't establish this.
That's a good question.
Well, maybe it's you can't use any words from a bond title.
Yes.
You can use articles and conjunctions and stuff, but it has to be like gold is probably off the table.
Okay.
Finger.
Yeah.
Cool.
Yeah.
Quantum.
You can't use quantum.
Quantum finger.
That was going to be.
Specters off the table.
Yeah.
Damn it.
I like this.
So what's the plan?
Take a bar.
Rob is usable.
You can use the word bulb.
yet. What?
Los Spookies.
Anyone watching the show?
No, Spookies.
It's fucking great.
Yeah, I want to see.
It's really great.
All right.
So we'll take a break and we'll come back with our titles and synopsies.
And then by the time you hear this, the poll will be up.
Yeah.
It'll probably be a new day when you hear this next.
Be right back.
And we're back.
It's March of 2020.
How are you guys feeling?
I can't believe there's this many presidential candidates left in contention.
March of 2020.
Well, who wants to go first?
I feel like...
Do we go in the order in which we marked?
I'll go.
I like it.
So mine completely changed with what I was given here.
Should we recap our picks before we read our descriptions?
Yeah, I'll just run down what the different actors are.
Okay.
So my James Bond is Henry Cavill.
Bond girls Michelle Williams.
The villain is Tom Hanks.
Henschman is Miles Teller.
M is Anthony Hopkins.
Q is Gonzo.
Money Penny is Samara Weaving.
The American intelligence agent is Chris Evans.
The ally mentor is Hal Holbrook.
The car is a 1963 split window corvette.
The gadget is a holographic facial projector bowtie.
It projects holographic faces, not projecting holographic bow ties.
Yeah.
Although it's good.
The theme song is by Rupal.
And the secondary Bond Girl is some very talented and sexy woman we don't know.
about yet.
Really nice, mom.
So my James Bond movie has two titles,
a domestic title and a foreign title.
Okay.
Oh.
So the domestic title is greatly exaggerated.
Uh-huh.
And the foreign title,
the global title is the ugly American.
Oh, I like it.
So my James Bond movie is in the post-Brexit,
England, MI6 is being shut down.
And the world is an upheaval.
And the president of the United States, Tom Hanks,
calls James Bond
to find the mole in the year.
U.S. government.
Hal Holbrook is
Tom Hanks' father. He was a president
as well, and it's rumored that he has
Alzheimer's, so he's in a home somewhere,
but he's actually being controlled by
Tom Hanks, who's the real villain.
Miles Teller is
Trump Jr. He's the son of Tom Hanks and the Hanchman.
And Michelle Williams is the
daughter. Oh.
So, basically,
the president is having
Bond investigate, try and go in and figure out
what the rush is taking over.
And then the big twist at the end is that Tom Hanks is the villain.
And Michelle Williams is actually on James Bondside.
She's the good member of that family.
Oh, wow.
And to explain the gonzo thing,
Taryn actually gave me something.
I think it's clear.
I'm not going to give him credit for this because this is actually great.
The gonzo is an illusion from the holographic tie.
Q is in hiding.
No one knows what Q looks like because he's so valuable now
because of the technology.
He makes me sort of like Yasser Arafat meets.
meets Steve Jobs.
He has to go to different places every night.
And then we find out later that the reason it was Gonzo
was because Miles Teller's character
kidnapped the real cue and thought Gonzo would be funny
because he's an ugly American.
Wow.
And what's the name of it again?
Greatly exaggerated for domestic release,
which is both a pun on Hal Holbrook's Mark Twain
and a pun on the president who lies about everything
and exaggerates everything.
And then the foreign audience is the ugly American.
Wow.
Boom.
Strong opening.
Salvo.
What's that Rupal song like?
It's sort of like
Supermodel of the world
Her first big hit from 1993
It's a very poppy, dancey song
But lots of power battle
Lots of screaming, lots of Shirley Bassy, deep stuff
And full orchestra, full Phil Specter,
Wall of Sound orchestra, but no murdering of women.
All right, all right.
One of these films goes into production tomorrow,
so this is exciting.
I'll go next.
I just want to get it over.
Scary.
Okay, to refresh my picks,
my bond is Carl Urban,
my bond girl is Amy Adams,
my villain is Emma Thompson,
my henchman is Mani Jacinto,
my M is Clive Owen,
my Q is Kirby Howell Baptiste,
my money penny is Sharon Hogan,
my American intelligence agent is Matthew McConaughey,
my ally slash mentor is Mr. T,
my car is a yellow 2003 Nissan Xtera.
Get it.
is a rocket bird scooter adapter that turns bird scooters into rocket scooters.
I want an illustration of it.
I just want a sketch of what it looks like.
My song is by Sporty Spice and my secondary Bond Girl is Alexandra Dadario.
Okay.
All right.
Carl Urban debuts as James Bond.
Watch as James faces off with a new foe, billionaire CEO Alma Foy.
followers.
Emma Thompson.
Nice.
And her band of murderous
kick-ass influencers
who are played by
Mani Jacinto and Alexandria
Dodario. James will obviously
seduce one of them.
She has, or both,
she has an evil plan to brainwash the youth
with subliminal messages and overpriced
musical music festivals and the
occasional poison machete.
Watch as Bond teams up with a
Cowboy CIA agent, McConaughey, a no-nonsense concert bodyguard, Mr. T, and a single mom with a secret, Amy Adams.
This film will take you to the deserts of Australia, a Japanese mascot convention, and on a thrilling scooter chase through the Coachella parking lot.
When James Vaughn returns in 007 Incognito mode.
Yeah.
That's beautiful.
Thanks.
Good job.
I want a Japanese mascot convention.
I want to go to one of the house.
So good.
There you go.
Yay.
Okay.
Thank you, Gory, for the sketch.
That's genius because they're everywhere.
Yes.
So all I got to do is slap it on something.
And then rock it.
And steer, steer, steer.
And you could have a scene like in Return of the Jedi in the woods with the...
Yeah, exactly.
Okay, so we have ugly American by Mark.
Shannon is...
Incognito.
Oh,
incognito mode.
Incognito mode.
Shocking that there's not been an incognito title for a blog phone.
Or a blog,
he's been like incognina.
Oh,
welcome to the stage, incognina.
Okay, who's next?
Not buying it over here now.
I'm not going for it.
I'll go next.
I'll go next.
This is Terran.
Did you get a text?
No, I wrote it on my phone after a three-hour writing session last night.
Okay, I'm not going to list because I mention it all in my thing.
Okay.
On mission in Madagascar, James Bond, Colin Farrell, and fellow Agent 009 have infiltrated the opium fields of the largest drug trafficker in the world, the mysterious cartel, Payon.
Things go horribly awry, and Bond barely escapes after a harrowing sea battle, bond on an assaults he do against 10 battleboats.
Things go from bad many as you'd like.
Bad to worse as 009 is taken hostage and then literally liquefied in front of Bonn as a poison hypohydrates the molecules in 009's body.
The opening title sequence is set to a throwback rock and tune called Lady Killer by classic rock gods the Rolling Stones.
Classic rock gods.
Classic rock gods.
You can just call the rock gods.
It's the Rolling Stones.
Nah, no, they're no Imagine Dragons.
Bond returns to MI6 and engages in a witty repartee with a sycophantic Moneypenny,
Andrew Rannells, but quickly falls flat as Moneypenny senses a shift in 007,
though he hides it well.
He can't hide from Moneypenny that Bond has been shaken, possibly even stirred.
Bond makes his way into M's office, Christopher Plummer.
This M is chipper, thoughtful, and more concerned with pruning and watering his exotic window
plants than with Bond's current status, but make no mistake, this M is no pushover, and uses
passive aggressive encouragement to get Bond to bend to his will. He informs Bond that he's being
sent to Barcelona to infiltrate a convention of genetic scientists, whose keynote speaker,
Athena Thelastris, what did I write here? You wrote it. I know.
Athena Thelestris, I forget how it sounded in my head. Tilda Swinton is about to debut a new drug,
said to eradicate a cancer-causing gene in all future generations.
Athena also has unconfirmed ties to Payone,
and M wants Bond to retrieve concrete evidence of Athena's involvement.
Bond reports to Q Branch and meets a new sullen and subdued quartermaster,
Peter Dinklage, who is immune to Bond's roguish charm.
He issues Bond a subterranean ground drone,
which drills into the ground and scans the blueprint of all structures above it,
but also has a bomb on it.
Nice. Nice.
Q also equips Bond with a new vehicle, a Tesla that turns into a helicopter and a submarine.
It can go by land and sea and should be indestructible even for you, Bond.
Challenge accepted.
In Barcelona, Bond attends an opening night galley.
He crosses paths with the mysterious but beguiling June night, Lupita Nyongo.
Their flirtation is interrupted by Athena's head of security, die, Laverne Cox.
It's incredible work Dr. Thelastris is doing, Miss Knight comment.
certainly her medical advancements will change the world.
But oh, certainly her, this is Bond now.
Her genetic and man will change the world.
But rumors of genetic manipulation make me nervous.
It's almost as if she's playing God, says Bond.
That'd be fitting, says June.
How so?
God's obviously a woman.
June says through a smile.
Athena takes a stage for a welcome toast introducing her daughter, Anna Zon,
Millie Bobby Brown, who Athena says has been instrumental in developing her research.
Anna is the first completely genetically engineered child incubated in a lab.
Love it. Love it.
Athena says she'll make disease, infertility, and eventually mortality, a thing of the past.
Bond slips upstairs, gets evidence of a secret research facility in the deep Amazon rainforest.
Bond is sneaking around, and then his sneaking around is blown by June Knight, who attempts to assassinate him.
Bond asks her why, and she tells him because he murdered her sister, May Day.
June Knight and Bond are pursued by...
die.
Oh my God.
And barely escape out the third story window by fireman's lighting down the drain.
Car pulls up in Javier Nelson, Michael Pena.
A CIA operative based out of South America tells them to get in.
Dye in her guards immediately intercept them and blows out the front tires of Agent Nelson's car.
I guess I'll drive, quips Bond.
They get into his Tesla, give chase through the streets of downtown Barcelona, and then transform into a helicopter.
Dai climbs the stairs of La Sagrada and shoots the helicopter's tail as it crashes into the ocean, but not before turning into a suburb.
Marine, which they used to travel to Sao Paulo.
June agrees to put off her assassination since Bond has saved her life.
Bond tells Agent Nelson and June, he has to get to Iguazu Falls.
Nelson agrees to help him get in the country and get the backup he needs.
But Bond tells him, I was actually thinking of picking up my own backup.
That backup is Henry Hank Smyth.
Ian McShane.
Smyth is a retired, MI6 agent living in Sao Paulo.
In fact, Smyth is the man from whom Bond inherited the 007 handle.
Smyth is the
Bowe. You lost me.
Bo.
Oh, dear.
Oh, wait, wait, sorry.
Sorry.
Oh, dear.
Just the 007.
Just the handle.
He's not James Bond.
He's the age.
Yay!
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Oh, good.
Thank God.
Bond recruits Smyth to help Nelson and June
and himself down the Amazon River.
There's an epic river battle.
Die piloting one of the attacking boats.
River battle.
Piloting the second boat.
Athena, the genetic engineer daughter.
Athena's the genetic engineered daughter,
Anna Zon, Bond rescues June from a piranha attack, and she pays them back with a dramatic kiss.
They reach the secret facility placed beside the powerful Iguazu Falls. Bond uses the
ground drone to get the layout of the factory. They realize the factory is actually mass-producing
genetically engineered children, but not just children, not just children, only female
children. Athena is building an Amazon race to take over the world.
Telastris has been using the pay-own drug money to fund this project. They are attacked by
Athena's goons die, all led by
hench child, Anazahn.
Athena reveals her plan.
She is going to release a genetic mutating
agent into the Amazon River, which provides
20% of Earth's oceans
freshwater and feeds the Amazon rainforest
which provides 20% of Earth's oxygen.
The genetic agent will spread globally
in 10 days, mutating the Y chromosome
to rapidly produce hydrogen atoms
turning every male on the planet
to mush.
Bond ignites the ground drone and the factory layer
begins to split and slowly crumble into the falls,
Bond is attacked by Anna Zon, who through her genetic modification has also been given exceptional strength and agility.
Bond has to defend himself against this superchild, and she and Thelastris slip into the falls, but Thelastris has to let Anazon plunge into the falls to save herself.
Bond is able to stop the chemical agent from being released.
June and Bond escape the factory as the factory fortress crumbles into the falls, taking Athena with it.
In the final scene, Bond and night wander the streets arm in arm through Rio's Carnival.
June says,
Brazilian.
Bond replies,
yes,
I noticed,
the lower half.
Not far behind them.
Sitting on the float
of St. George
is Anna Zahn
with a look of
hungry revenge.
Colin Farrell stars
as James Bond
in,
deadlier than the male.
Whoa.
Man.
Look out.
Whoa.
Wow.
Thank you for your time.
Wow.
Out.
Classic rock gods.
Okay.
I thought we had a 15-minute
time.
On reading.
I learned in the writing, not on the presentation.
That was good.
That genetic twist was nice.
All right, who's next?
I can go.
Although I have now lost all confidence in mine.
Yeah.
Because that was amazing.
Oh, she's so humble.
I've won.
Praise from Caesar.
Praise from Caesar.
You'd be stupid to vote for me.
The winner.
Go ahead, Dan.
Wow.
Everyone wrote so much more than me.
I'm very upset about it.
I'm sorry.
I like what you do.
I like how you read it.
Drop your notebook down.
Yeah.
Well, we'll see.
Okay.
Get us home at a reasonable hour.
This, I'll just read it really fast.
Okay, and I'm also going to read my picks in it because it'll go faster.
Okay.
It's for you.
I'm doing it for you.
Please, no.
You're great.
Okay.
I'm mad at Terran.
That's fair.
Totally fair.
Completely fair.
Okay.
This film opens with Mikiel Hausman as Bond, stopping a domestic terror attack on the London eye.
He fights the suspect on top of the observation carriages, throws him off into the Thames River,
and we get a heroic shot of Bond standing atop the London Eye with the houses of Parliament behind him.
It's probably the poster.
Oh, that's kind of like a gun-barrel sequence, too, with the circular eye.
You know what?
I'd like to, could we just, and I'm going to make this longer, but could we just have a shot of Parliament
and then just have James Bond rise into frame on top of the thing.
Thank you.
It's the reverse of Desmond Llewellyn.
It's a reverse of them.
I always have an entrance plan.
Okay, so that's the opening.
Enter a dark, smoky bond theme song sung by Regina Specter,
with the opening imagery having a lot of allusions to eyes and cameras and surveillance.
Where am I?
So, cut to Bond is at the MI6 headquarters, Jim.
He's jogging.
When another agent jogs past him, it's Rachel Weiss.
They're at different rates, but their competitive natures kick in, and they start to race.
They're both pretty fast.
Bond heads into M's office later for a briefing.
He's greeted by Rose Leslie as Moneypenny.
Inside M's office, we see Idris Elba as M.
And Rachel Weiss's agent is already there, because let's be real, women have to work twice as hard as they're.
male colleagues.
Mo!
M tells them to investigate the tech entrepreneur Ezra Miles,
who is 100% based on an evil version of Elon Musk.
Ezra Miles is about to launch a revolutionary new kind of drone into the market,
and it was a prototype of it that was used in the London Eye Attack.
They interrogate Ezra Miles, played by the steely-eyed Jason Isaacs,
and meet his creepy henchman, played by Iwan Rion.
Ezra Miles dismisses the idea that his product could be utilized by terrorists.
Bond and Rachel Weiss, that's her name, I guess.
They begin to investigate his tech company, which is named Vigil.
Oh, I like that.
Because MI6 is sniffing around Ezra Miles and his henchmen travel to their lab in Iceland,
where his henchmen serves poison champagne to all of the lab workers, killing them all.
They fly away in a helicopter, purposefully triggering an avalanche on the mountain above
the lab literally bearing the bodies.
Bond and Rachel investigate Vigil's Tokyo
Manufacturing Plant where Ally mentor Ken Watanabe shows them around.
They are discovered and the henchman shows up, pursues them,
and is chucking, throwing stars at them that have poison tips.
And they discover their poison when one of them hits Ken Watanabe's character and he dies.
Pretty instantly.
It's a fast acting toxin.
So they finally fly to the U.S. where they're greeted by American Intelligence Agent Tessa Thompson.
who picks them up in her 1965 Shelby Cobra,
which I realize now only suits two people.
And no luggage, no room for luggage.
Exactly.
Oh, well.
Beverly Hillbilly's style.
She takes them to the CIA's version of Q Branch,
which is headed by an Alan Tudik,
who greets them when he geeks out when he learns
that they are MI6 agents and asks all kinds of inane questions about Q Branch.
And then he outfits them with a laser pointer lasers.
sold American exceptionalism.
I never knew was going to be a thing.
They had individuals U.S. product showroom where Ezra Miles unveils the real product he wants to sell,
a stealth drone that can lock into someone's personal devices and discreetly send real-time surveillance to whoever owns the drone.
He urges his audience to bid on the bulk of these drones because if they don't, someone else will,
and you do not want to be on the wrong end of such an invasive technology.
They go to apprehend
Ezra Miles
but they have to go through his henchman
who kicks away Bond's gun and fights with a little
poisoned knife. That's this whole henchman's thing.
Poison. He's like a little
poison dart frog. It's really cute.
I love him. But he's creepy.
Bond ends up getting him with his own knife
and he dies from poison.
And then they stop
Ezra Miles and his
crazy drone plot
to
I don't know
surveil everyone
I don't have an ending for it
but that's it
yeah
wait what's it called
does sucker have a title
the ending is they stop him
and then Rachel Weiss and Bonn
have formed a friendship
and they're equals
oh friendship
what's the title
no
wow
laconic
what's the title
the title is dark vigil
oh that's good
that is good
I did
friends without benefits.
Without benefits.
Yes.
I also had a whole thing of like having a drone that had a gun on it.
Oh, sorry.
The fact, yeah.
That's my gadget that I won't even use because it's the back of a fucking DVD box.
You guys wrote the booklet that no one ships anymore with DVD.
I didn't, no, mine was short.
These are steel books.
Yours is a Walmart discount bin DVD.
Yeah, mine was the criteria.
This criteria in DVD.
Square by them.
Mine's $399.
Okay.
Mine's the movie that you look at and go,

I guess that could have been a,

That's weird.
Well, let's hear it.
I don't remember it.
Let me take a look at the back of the DVD
and find out what this is all about.
What would it read?

However, this time, the world is at stake.
Oh, keep reading.

Jesus.
John Goodman has gone missing.
Bond is dispatched to Nevada to help his friend uncover the truth.
But what they find is a plot to destabilize the world economy from casino magnate
Gorilla Glue Inventor and presidential candidate Michael Shannon.
Don't worry.
It gets less serious.
Don't worry.
Bond will have to use everything at his disposal to help Felix find his father.
including a drone, his father's own duct tape.
This is McGuiver?
And a gun.
It might be.

No, no, no.
I thought it was going to be diced another day.
The finale happens at a game of free bet blackjack,
where you don't really quite know what you're able to do.
Wait, can I, I can split and swap cards?
You'll show me what cards you're putting.
What do you do?
Okay, here's my list.
Okay.
Okay.
Michael Fastbender.
James Bond.
Indira Varma as Bond Girl, Gala Brand,
named taken from Moonraker,
and she's actually a nuclear physicist you can believe.
What are you saying about?
Denzel Washington plays the villain,
Ivar Bannon, a mysterious industrialist.
Christopher Hivu plays the henchman, Full Stop.
I love it.
Full stop is good.
Ian Glenn is M.
Stephen Frye's Q.
Phoebe Waller Bridge is the sexually harassing Moneypenny.
Laura Dern is Felicia Lighter, the American intelligence agent.
Lawrence Fishburn plays Draco, the same character from Honor Majesty's Secret Service.
Bond drives a classic Bentley Continental GT.
He has a gadget that's a pen that dispenses drops of sodium pentothal.
Nico Kay sings the torchy, moody song.
and Tatiana Maslani is Sylvia Trench.
Oh, I like it.
She's back.
Yeah.
Does Bond get trench mouth?
A couple of times.
So bad he can't sit down.
A mysterious industrialist causes a series of meltdowns
at nuclear power plants across the developing nations of the world,
and James Bond must re-examine
MI6's special relationship with its American cousins
as trusted espionage contacts are tested.
007's life and England's oldest alliance
is on the brink of radioactive catastrophe
in Ian Fleming's lost James Bond novel, Half-Life.
Oh.
That's the name.
That's it.
You've got to do the rest in your own brain.
Nice.
It's pretty cool.
Well, but that's it.
That's it.
You went six minutes over.
We're done with your...
In fairness, it looks like he did write it twice.
He was like,
he crossed a lot of cross-outs.
Well, I have a bunch of title drafts too.
I love it.
I'm really excited about this.
I cut a lot because I'm going with your,
I think you were wise to do the less is more last time.
I know, that's true.
I didn't learn much from that.
But the important thing is we did it all together.
Yeah.
We did it.
And now we're going to find out.
Who's got their movie getting made tomorrow?
Production starts tomorrow.
Yeah.
So I just hope we can get all these schedules arranged.
And a director?
And a hold of Hal Holbrook's handler.
Yeah.
He's not going anywhere.
We should probably shoot his stuff first.
We scanned him in, so we don't need him.
Oh, well, let's go around the room and say our goodbyes.
Mark, how are you?
What do you do?
Me?
Where do they find you?
Well, my name's Mark McConville, and I've been.
your draft commissioner and it's a real pleasure.
Thank you so much, Mark.
Thank you.
This one did a lot of work.
Extra fun because I got to see everybody's stuff come in.
I think if I had it over again, I might shuffle around the columns so that we were a little
more confused.
It didn't dawn on me until we started.
One of those classic things.
You can find me on the Twitter and the Instagram at Mark McCondale.
And I think that's it.
Yeah.
And by this point, I think you can, you'll be able to vote.
on which of these draft movies you want to see go into production tomorrow.
You can go to the James Bonding Twitter.
I think it'll probably be posted at Matt goarly.com as well, so you can look there.
And while you're there, why not treat yourself to a nice print?
Matt.
You know, you just head over to Matt goarly.com and you buy yourself, you know,
since we're having fantasy drafts, let's have a fantasy theme park event.
Brought to you by Matt Goorley.
I'm talking James Bond's Stunt Spectaculars.
There's a set of them.
Collect them all.
They're beautiful.
They are.
Thanks, guys.
I appreciate that.
That was sweet of you.
Taryn?
Thank you for having me.
I love doing this.
The two best days of my year have been these drafts.
Yeah, me too.
Yeah, me too.
So fun.
I respect all of you.
I'm just, just, we really left it all out on the coffee table, you know?
We should mention there's, we don't have a stitch of clothing on.
Yes.
None of us.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
It's a cult.
Yeah.
And yet I haven't felt exposed.
to just now, you know.
We're all in a teepee.
Thanks for having me so fun.
It's so great.
I look forward to the Timesap draft.
Times app's going to be good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Times app is...
Do they have to be people that are dead?
Maybe.
I think it's a Times app.
I think you can just go from anywhere you want.
Anywhere anytime.
If you're like, if you're like, oh, yeah, I guess John Wilkes Booth must have been a great actor.
I think Finn Wolfheart is really going to grow into a great henchman.
Sure.
Yeah.
All right, Mark.
Well, first, yeah, thank you for having me.
This was a blast.
This was really fun.
I want to do this all the time now.
I'd be stalking you guys.
You can find me at at Mark Andrako on Twitter and on Facebook.
I'm currently writing Supergirl for DC Comics.
A plug of a book, Taryn, and I did.
A comic book called The Illigitimates.
There was an idea of Taryn's head that he brought me on board before.
It's basically a James Bond type.
Agent Steele gets murdered, and we find out he had kids with all the femme fatals,
and they form a spy team.
That's wonderful.
That's in print now.
you can get on Comicsology, Amazon, your local comic store.
And yeah, I'm just glad to be here.
This was really fun.
Thanks for joining us.
All right.
Shannon.
Thank you so much for having me.
This has been really fun.
This one was less stressful than the last one because I didn't have to watch,
like speed through a bunch of James Bond movies to try.
Like, I just got to play imagination.
So that was really fun.
You can find me on social media at Chanekdotes 1-6 on Twitter and Instagram.
Follow at Townland Band on Twitter and Instagram.
And also I'll just plug, you should follow at,
Earwolf on stuff.
Like, it's my job and it's good.
And you run the social media for your wolves.
I run so much for Earwolf.
But we have really good podcasts that are also like, this one is great, but we have like 30
other really good ones.
Yeah, yeah, but this one's great.
This one's great.
Don't you want to see which Jiff I pick each week for the James Bonding?
Oh, you're going to call them gifts.
What is happening?
And please come see Townland, uh, July 9th, Lyric Hyperion, APM, tickets on Eventbrite and listen
to my podcast.
my podcast ask me about K-pop
wherever podcast.
My podcast asked me about
I'm surprised you're trying to answer.
I'm surprised you didn't have a K-pop.
I didn't want to be that person.
Like I thought it would,
I was like afraid of coming across
as like a weird Korea boo if I just like put my stuff on it.
So I like,
I would have my first thought.
You're a weird Korea boo.
What a weird Korea boo.
But I did.
I did want to say just because it was really nice.
I listened to the first episode
that we did on a train to Busan, like in Korea, like, staring out at the countryside,
like listening to all of our bond picks.
And it was a lovely memory.
So you should have been watching die another day, too, that takes place in Korea.
Yeah, what's I said, you watch train to Busan on train.
Too scary.
Yeah, no, that would be too scary.
Okay.
All right, Danny.
Hi, it's been great to be back.
You can find me on Twitter, Danny Price,007, Danny with an eye.
A lot of people mix that up.
I also have a podcast called the Anglophiles, Files with an F, where I watch British TV shows and try British candy.
That's how she gets all these names where we're like, let's Google this person.
Oh, yeah, they are handsome.
I have watched all the British shows.
That's lovely.
All right.
Thank you, Matt.
Look for me and my eight, nine-week-old son to be walking within a very small radius of our home until his vaccines are all good to go.
And we'll spread a little further and maybe be in a store or another public sort of space.
He's talking to you, Jessica Beale.
Yeah, Jessica Beal, my kids aren't playing with your kids.
I don't want him to die.
I don't need the missiles.
The meples.
Or the meeples, yeah.
