MST3K 508: Operation Double 007
Jan. 20th, 2008 09:54 amAfter a fair break, it's back at last to commenting on episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000. A little while back, I mentioned how the series showed enough movies that could be called "ripoffs of 1960s James Bond movies" to think that they amounted to a "subset of the canon," and decided to rewatch the other episodes that qualified for that. (As it turns out, I managed to increase my knowledge of the actual James Bond movies over the Christmas vacation by watching Thunderball...) This particular movie takes a particularly interesting approach in ripping off James Bond.
