Podcast appearances and mentions of kevin mcclory

Sean Connery had vowed he was never going to return as James Bond after 1971's Diamonds Are Forever. Meanwhile, a man called Kevin McClory had agreed not to exercise his screen rights to the story of Thunderball until 1975. Yet the highest profile 'unofficial' Bond project would bring them both together, as Never Say Never Again did battle with the official 007 film Octopussy at the 1983 box office. A different battle played out in 1999, as Robert De Niro took the plunge into comedy with Analyze This. It'd be an early hit in a year that was awash with them - yet the idea of a mob boss seeing a shrink, that seemed original when the film was conceived - was about to slam head-first into a brand new TV show...

Sean Connery is James Bond. After years of legal battles, Kevin McClory finally released his own James Bond film with a remake of Thunderball, Never Say Never Again. When Spectre steals two nuclear warheads, Bond is travels all over the world to the Bahamas, France and North Africa to track them down. The film starred Sean Connery, returning to the role after 12 years with The Empire Strikes Back director Irvin Kershner taking the helm. As it starred the original James Bond and came out the same year as Octopussy, it resulted in the Battle of the Bonds. Never Say Never Again ultimately lost but was still a success, grossing $160 million at the box office. With it not being part of the main series, it's become a bit of an oddity but does it deserve to be remembered, or were Tom & Joe right to skip this one in the initial rewatch? Hosted on Acast.

A September 1964 letter by Harry Saltzman to Kevin McClory provides a peek concerning the negotiations related to 1965's Thunderball film.

Wir feiern das 25-jährige Jubiläum von „Der Morgen stirbt nie“. Im ersten Teil der Retrospektive von Pierce Brosnans zweitem Auftritt als 007 blicken wir auf die turbulente Entstehungsgeschichte des Films. Denn nicht nur der ewige Widersacher der Broccolis, Kevin McClory, machte wieder Ärger. Auch der Verkauf von MGM erhöhte den Druck auf die Filmcrew. Zudem beschäftigen wir uns mit der Frage, ob Paris Carver ein unterschätzter Charakter ist und welchen Einfluss das Phänomen „Girl Power“ auf den Film hatte. Zuletzt beleuchten unsere Kolleginnen und Kollegen vom Klatsch- und Tratsch-Podcast „Hot Pink“ den damaligen – und für den Film äußerst wichtigen – Status Quo der britischen Presse. Zusätzlich zum vollen Programm legt Sebastian auch noch einen Gastauftritt bei Kais zweitem Podcast „Männer, die auf Videos starren“ hin. Zusammen werfen sie einen Blick auf das sehenswerte Werk von Michelle Yeoh, die in „Tomorrow never dies“ an der Seite von James Bond die Welt rettet.

How crazy were Sean Connery and Kevin McClory's script ideas back in 1978? Based on 'James Bond of the Secret Service' written in the 1950s, which would eventually become the novel 'Thunderball,' then a film of the same name, and years later even more script variations, 'Warhead' 1978 is the topic of this episode of our 'Unmade' season of episodes about James Bond films that never got filmed as intended. How much would survive in to the production that ultimately became 'Never Say Never Again'? Hold on to your hats for invisible cliffs, nuclear powered undersea cities, robotic sharks, underwater jetpacks, a fetish for building scale models, twin sisters, alien and time travel theories on the Bermuda Triangle, and many, many more bonkers plot ideas in a film where Blofeld was front and centre.

We discuss Thunderb…er…Never Say Never Again (1983): Kevin McClory's answer to Octopussy. While neither film is very good, this one at least has Sean Connery, that glorious early 80s aesthetic, and yes, a whole lot of ass shots.

On this episode of The James Bond A-Z Podcast hosts Tom Butler, Brendan Duffy, and Tom Wheatley take a closer look at 'Never Say Never Again', the 1983 James Bond film starring Sean Connery as 007. The story of the second Bond movie not produced by Eon is a tangled web that begins in 1961 with the release of Ian Fleming's 'Thunderball'.  This episode covers the story of Kevin McClory's long-running legal battle with Eon from being awarded the movie rights to 'Thunderball', to the struggle to make 'Never Say Never Again', right up to his death in 2006 and the subsequent release of Spectre in 2015. It's the biggest behind-the-scenes in 007 movie history, one that casts a shadow over the entire franchise. We also bid a fond farewell to founding co-host Tom Wheatley who leaves the podcast on an all-time high, but promises to return in the future. James Bond will return... in next week's James Bond's A-Z Podcast.

From crossbow bolt-ruined dives to detective-dispatching poison-tipped butterflies, the final run of Roger Moore as Commander James Bond was infused with the thrilling drive of 1980's action cinema. We welcome back John Arminio to tackle this transitional era of the 007 franchise: Moore's last three movies (For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy and A View to a Kill) as well as the rival Bond film Never Say Never Again, starring Sean Connery and released by Warner Brothers to go head-to-head with Eon's long-running franchise. In this episode of our film-by-film examination of the entire Bond series, you'll learn the identity of Arminio's favorite henchman, the nickname of Patick Macnee's jockey father, why Kevin McClory's cash-grab of a competing Bond movie was a blessing in disguise and much more! This is Part One of "James Bond in the 80's." Part Two will deal with the Timothy Dalton-starring films that wrapped up the decade. The Pink Smoke site:

Sean Connery returned to the role of Bond in 1983's NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN. Directed by Irvin Kershner, director of THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, this film was produced by Kevin McClory, outside the Cubby Broccoli/EON Productions franchise. We talk about the return of Sir Sean, Bond girl Kim Basinger, the villian Largo, and the femme fatale Fatima Blush. From Largo's video game "Domination" to the fountain pen gun, we talk about it all!

Spite is never lonely; envy always tags along. So said Mignon McLaughlin who passed away the same year as Kevin McClory's second attempt at a Bond film was released. It's hard to say how this film is rated within the Bond community. Some say it's an admirable effort and a return to Connery's wonder years. Others deride it as a project driven by the two green monsters; envy and money. One thing, however, is certain: Très Bond are gonna let you know what they think!

After years of false-starts, Kevin McClory's remake of "Thunderball" finally got green-lit in 1982. Sean Connery's involvement in the project stretched far beyond his reprisal of 007 and ensured that Cubby Broccoli and EON were kept guessing as production on their own feature evolved simultaneously. Despite its origins in bad blood, "NSNA" nevertheless has its devotees and defenders and holds a firm place within the Bond universe. From foie gras to smoking heels, BBN is delighted to offer its own take on this unofficial installment!

Sean Connery is back! And he should've stayed gone. Returning champ Melissa joins us again. This is a terrible movie. Why is this movie? and Kevin McClory's ability to remake Thunderball as many times as he wants. Melissa had to watch it twice. We remember this movie from our childhood (and other childhood theater-going experiences). Bad 80's technology. War Games. Mark wouldn't make it into the CIA because he can't play Domination. The terrible theme song. The Bond template. The most Male Gaze-y of any Bond movie. Sean Connery's nipples. Embracing your age and getting better looking. Rowan Atkinson! Max Von Sydow double feature with Strange Brew. Either/Either? Fatima's overly complex murders. She's the best part of the movie. They took her motorcycle away and gave it to Bond! Bond's pee. Why would Connery want to come back? Why do we even like the Bond movies if there are so many terrible ones. Brooke and Mark try to beat Andy up again about Invisible Man. Sharks! But isn't this just another mediocre white man skating along on reputation rather than actually being good? Men who secretly like rape scenes in movies. Bond writes the Harvey Weinstein/Matt Lauer book of sexual assault. Thunderball vs. Never Say Never Again: Who did it better?

Whilst it is the highest grossing film (adjusted for inflation, of course) in the James Bond franchise, Thunderball often sits in the shadow of its immediate, golden predecessor... but should it instead loom over the franchise as a towering triumph? It is seen by some as being waterlogged by prolonged underwater sequences; by others it's a rip-roaring, exhilarating thrill ride. Très Bond always acts while others talk, so we strike... and give you our unfiltered opinion on the fourth Bond film.

These are the bizarre, inspiring, and sad stories of the scandals that rocked the James Bond franchise. George Lazenby was the second man to play James Bond after Sean Connery left. However, he had never acted before and tricked producers into casting him. Kevin McClory was a producer who managed to somehow win the rights to make his own bootleg James Bond movies in court. Both men left lasting marks on the franchise, but both men also spent the rest of their lives trying to recover from the catastrophic effects 007 had on their careers. 01001111 01101000 00101100 00100000 01110011 01101000 01101001 01110100 00100001 00100000 01001101 01100001 01110100 01110100 00100000 01000110 01110010 01100001 01100011 01110100 01101001 01101111 01101110 00100001 00111111  Learn more about your ad choices.

Ask any fan for their top five James Bond films and most will include The Spy Who Loved Me among them.After the dismal failure of The Man With The Golden Gun. the James Bond franchise was having an existential crisis. Harry Salzman had left, Kevin McClory was hovering around, threatening to make a rival film which prevented Cubby Broccolli from reintroducing Blofeld and Spectre back into the Bond fold.007 needed a big statement film to stay relevant and re-engage the public and in The Spy Who Loved Me it succeeded. This lavish production produced one of the best stunts of all time, spawned sound stage in the world and gave us one of the most entertaining James Bond movies ever.The film was the first of two Bond films penned by Christopher Wood. Much of the movie's humour comes from Wood, who under a pseudonym wrote a long series of naughty sex comedy farce novels during the 70s and 80s.  The second film he wrote was Moonraker, which succeded The Spy Who Loved Me.Graham, Terry and Gary analyse and celebrate this film. Its importance to the franchise and to ourselves. We also, hopefully, successfully, argue that the movie has relevance today in 2020.Download the MP3 or listen to this episode or on the player below.The Oddjob Pod is on Apple Podcasts (if you like the show please give it a 5-star rating and a nice review)Or you can add our feed to your podcatcher of choice.Like our Facebook page.Follow @oddjobpod Tweet to @oddjobpod

Before Star Wars, there was Bond. James Bond. It is a film franchise that has inspired everyone in in the industry from Steven Spielberg to Christopher Nolan to Rian Johnson. Eight actors have (unofficially) played the character over its almost sixty years in existence. And there is another one coming out this April. So what better time for the Binge Movie Aftertaste to gear up and cover a franchise that has been requested for years. Myself, Adam, and Matt are going to fire through a gun barrel the entire 26 film franchise, cultivating in a review of Cary Fukunaga's No Time To Die, which is being heralded as Daniel Craig's final bow as the character. With For Your Eyes Only, Agent 007 proved once again that he was here to stay. But there was a new problem on the horizon. After winning a long awaited lawsuit giving him certain rights to the original story behind Thunderball, Kevin McClory was now free to make his version of the story starring Sean Connery entitled Never Say Never Again. But instead of replacing their aging star Roger Moore, Eon decided to have him front their 1983 movie Octopussy. Even if Eon won the box office war that ensued, do we think it was a warranted victory? We then move on to a movie which had all the makings of a huge success. With recent Oscar winner Christopher Walken and eccentric Grace Jones cast as villains, Eon returned to the screen with 1985's A View to a Kill. But an ill advised decision to have this be 57 year old Moore's swan song may have proven that Bond was ripe to be picked. Even if critics ravaged the film upon first release, do the three of us feel it to be misunderstood? Listen below to perhaps our most scatter brained review of the series yet.

After ruling the 60s and thriving in popularity through the 70s, James Bond hit the 80s running with For Your Eyes Only. Armed with a returning Roger Moore, a new director and an earworm opening theme performed by Sheena Easton, the movie came and proved that Agent 007 was hotter than ever. But will the three of us already be suffering from Bond fatigue and turn against it? Then we have the second and (for now) final non Eon entry in the franchise. With the lawsuit settled, producer Kevin McClory finally got his wish and produced his supposed true vision of what Thunderball was, in his eyes, supposed to be. He shelled out a lot of money to bring in not only the man who declared he was done with the franchise Sean Connery, he also reigned in then hot director of The Empire Strikes Back Irvin Kershner, Never Say Never Again was released in 1983 to much fanfare, How do we feel about it? After those reviews continue listening, as we address what we are going to be doing about the news that the release of the movie we are leading up to, No Time To Die, has been delayed until November.

Sean Connery's last outing as James Bond, Never Say Never Again. Connery joined forces with producer Kevin McClory to make an 'unofficial' James Bond film which is a rehash of Thunderball. The Flick Lab goes through all the subjectively best and worst Bond films from each actor who played Bond until the release of No Time to Die (2020). The Lab unanimously voted Never Say Never Again as the worst Bond film from Sean Connery. Do you agree with the verdict? / Directed by Irvin Kershner. Starring Sean Connery, Kim Basinger, Klaus Maria Brandauer, Barbara Carrera.

Never Say Never Again. Since the early 60s and the dispute over who was responsible for what story-wise in what became the novel Thunderball, Kevin McClory had been trying to make his "Bond", it would take decades, but he would finally get his wish in 1983. In this episode of The 602 Club hosts Matthew Rushing and Christy Morris welcome John Champion to talk about Never Say Never Again. We discuss Kevin McClory getting his Bond, Sean being back, a Thunderball Redo, villains, friends, Kim Basinger, action, ratings and out recommendations.

Spybrary Spy Podcast with Matthew Kresal After a rejuvenating few months at Shrublands our Brush Pass Reviews makes a welcome return to the Spybrary Spy Podcast. Matthew Kresal’s brush pass has been decoded. Tune in and hear his transmission where he gives us his rapid briefing on the Battle for Bond, a book written by Robert Sellars. ‘In 1963, Ian Fleming, the creator of the 20th century’s greatest fictional character was in court, accused of plagiarism. The screen version of James Bond was not Fleming’s creation. It was the creation of Jack Whittingham, who was employed by maverick producer Kevin McClory to adapt the character to the big screen. Had this screen character never been developed, James Bond might have been just another minor fictional spy character. Battle for Bond – Robert Sellars The Battle for Bond is a tale of bitter recriminations, betrayal, multi-million dollar lawsuits and even death. It is the fabled story of Kevin McClory’s 40 year legal battle over the rights to the screen version of James Bond, which he and Whittingham had created. The first edition of this book was banned by the Ian Fleming Will Trust. But the truth never dies! This second edition features a new foreword by Len Deighton.

Alex and James take a look at the unofficial Bond film and Sean Connery's final silver screen outing as 007. Borne out of a legal dispute between Thunderball director Kevin McClory and everyone who actually made Bond film, Never Say Never Again is a beat-for-beat repeat of Connery's fourth adventure - in some way better, in other much worse. Listen in as we discuss Bond's challenging mission of... er... going on a diet, two of the nuttiest villains he's ever faced, the wonderful Pat Roach, a Blofeld who enjoys his job too much, a forgettable soundtrack, and the completely unjustified appearance of Mr Bean.

Octopussy. In 1983 the James Bond would face something that he never had before, himself. This fateful year would see Kevin McClory finally make his version of Thunderball in Never Say Never Again with none other than pervious Bond, Sean Connery. In this episode of The 602 Club host Matthew Rushing is once again joined by 00 agents Christy Morris and John Champion to talk about Octopussy.

St. John Smythe and Francis discuss Thunderball. Topics include dipshit Kevin McClory, underwater music, and all things Disco Volante.

Join us for an unusually negative Bond & Beyond Review as we embark upon the fourth round of this classic series. This time Alex and James are joined by friend of the show and GameBurst co-host Gary 'Xantiriad' Blower to discuss Thunderball. Touching briefly upon the well-documented legal dispute that this film triggered between Ian Fleming, EON Productions and director Kevin McClory, we ponder why a film that involves a nuclear threat, the first major Spectre gambit for world domination and some genuinely great villains just seems to lack... something. As always, our episodes can be found at bondbeyodpod.tumblr.com. You can chat to us on Twitter, @BondBeyondPod, or share you views at our new Facebook page - just search "Bond and Beyond". 

This may be our hilariously worst episode but fittingly it's about the worst Bond film that isn't technically a Bond film. Sean Connery's final outing as 007 sees him team up with producer Kevin McClory to remake Thunderball. You know what this means. Patricia Fearing is back. Jonathan concludes our segment "Is It Rape Or Not?" needs a broader definition to cover all sexual assault. Meanwhile Richard gets tired of 80s Bond movies but learns new things about the female vagina.

Thunderball. In 1958 author Ian Fleming becomes enamored with the idea of a Bond film and though the connection of his friend Ivar Bryce, meets Kevin McClory who along with script writer Jack Whittingham work on a story. Fleming becomes bored with the process and writes Thunderball, based in part on the script leading to a legal suit that keeps Thunderball from becoming the first Bond movie and instead becomes the fourth when the issue is finally resolved out of court in 1963. In this episode of The 602 Club host Matthew Rushing is joined by 00 agent John Champion to talk about the James Bond adventure Thunderball. We discuss Bond history, bigger, better and tired, Bond needs a holiday, a devious plot, worthy villains, women of substance and more.

in which we unofficially discuss Kevin McClory's James Bond 007 in NEVER SAY NEVER| featuring the return of our review format including, of course, our three unique review sections; Double-O 30, D istinguished Debauchery, & Running Rankings | hosted by Arturo V. Leon II & Scott W. Obermiller | follow us: twitter.com/BondingOverBond | like us: facebook.com/BondingOverBond | online at lionizepodcast.com/bondingoverbond | Presented by the Lionize Podcast |

Welcome to SPECTRE etc. This is the James Bond podcast where we discuss the ins and the outs of each film. In this episode, we risk the wrath of the Broccoli Mafia by straying from Eon Productions. Find out if Kevin McClory’s offer was one we should have refused in “Never Say Never Again”. * The pre-titles and the titles are efficiently merged. Sean’s face fills the screen before his cinematically-shot training mission goes awry. This results in an absolutely awful M sending 007 to detox. * The SPECTRE meeting shows they are no longer the Industry Leader. It seems their sole focus now is to repeatedly spell out the acronym - which seems to excite McClory far more than it should. SPECTRE sends #12 to assassinate Captain Jack in the most contrived way possible. * In a clear cry for help, Bond fills his rehab suitcase with contraband. Once at detox, Bond undergoes more colonics than one would think necessary. Then he is attacked by a henchman who is also a Count. Luckily Bond is able to give the noble thug a piss of his mind. * On Largo’s boat, the office doubles as a peep-show booth. He watches Domino dance for a bit, then zips up and heads out to give her a “Tears of Allah” pendant before threatening to slit her throat. Nice guy. * Before heading to the Bahamas, Bond visits Q’s lab. Unfortunately he only finds Algie - some degenerate cockney who tries to live vicariously through 007 anecdotes. In the Bahamas, Bond is greeted by his new offsider: Mr. Bean. * Bond and #12 go deep, and then head underwater. They swim with the sharks, but Bond is able to find safety in an unflattering pair of overalls. Luckily, when Bond’s hotel room explodes, he is still wearing protection. * Bond chases Largo to France, where he meets up with the best Felix yet. Bond sneaks into a spa to assault The Sister of the Guy Who Did the Thing. Domino tells 007 that Largo will be at the casino that night, helping out some local orphan kids. * At the casino, Bond is coerced into competing against Largo at his own game. Domination is annoying to watch, and looks awful to play. But it is a whole lot easier to watch than Bond telling Domino about her brother’s death during a ballroom dance. * Bond jumps on his motorcycle and chases #12 around town. She eventually traps him, and becomes a plot device enabling Bond to use his pen gun. Thankfully, this contrivance allows Bond to kill her before he and Felix strip down to their underwear. * Bond pops up on Largo’s boat a little early for their lunch date. Largo captures Bond, but lets his prisoner wander free on the boat. This lax approach has many negative consequences for Largo. He responds by locking Bond in a tower, and giving Domino a spit-bridge kiss before putting her on the auction block. * Bond escapes, rescues Domino, and kills a horse. Back on the boat, M uses the intercom to sexily serenade Bond and Domino. Bond realises Domino’s pendant is a clue - so it is time to bust out the jetpacks! * A too-long gunfight scene leads to an underwater sequence in a saltwater drinking well. Before all that swimming killed Connery’s hairpiece, Domino (she is an agent now?) shows up to kill Largo. * While the epilogue usually shows the viewer that Bond is never completely safe, this time the final scene puts the viewer in danger. And of course, keep checking back for a link to our petition to have Kevin McClory locked in a room for an interrogation by Col!

Sean Connery is the original James Bond and after Diamonds are Forever he said he would never play Bond again. Never say never. Those are the words that became the title to the 1983 remake of Thunderball (1965), Never Say Never Again. The Invaders sneak into the files of MI-6 to see which of the Ian Fleming, Kevin McClory inspired stories can defeat the evil S.P.E.C.T.R.E. and is the best of 007.

We apologise for having to break with our film recaps to bring you this episode but given it had Sean Connery in it and had a loose connection to James Bond then here is a damn episode on the 1983 "James Bond Film" Never Say Never Again. Why does this movie suck? Why does Q suck? Why does M suck? Why dos Moneypenny suck? Why does Blofeld suck? Why does the music suck? Why does Domino suck? And why does Kevin McClory suck? So much to answer in too much time, click the button and put yourself out of your misery

A brief introductory episode to the world of Quantum of Friendship wherein Richard Drumm outlines the concept with Jonathan Victory. The format of this podcast shall see them watching one Bond film each episode, Jonathan being a newcomer and Richard being a fanboy. They shall bond over these 007 films but there shall be no James Bonding here, for copyright reasons. Just think of us as the Kevin McClory to James Bonding's Eon Productions.

With today's episode we hit the mother load. To follow up our last "Battle for Bond" podcast with author Robert Sellers, we're interviewing Sylvan Mason, the daughter of snubbed Thunderball screenwriter Jack Whittingham. Words cannot describe how excited we were to actually hear the story first hand from someone who was involved and actually there at the time. Sylvan's unique perspective really does shed some light on what really happened with Thunderball.  Not only that, we get to see Whittingham's scrapbook that follows the court battle from start to finish and see a copy of the very book, complete with hand written annotations that Kevin McClory's lawyer used in the case.  Another episode you just cannot miss!

On today's show we interview the author of 'The Battle for Bond,' Robert Sellers. We talk all about the Kevin McClory debacle, from what might have happened had Alfred Hitchcock agreed to direct, to the real choices Fleming made for who should play Bond. Discover who came up with the original idea for Thunderball (it wasn't Fleming) and find out who was the guilty party in the plagiarism case! Get ready for a 2 hour epic...though be warned, you might just come away with a different opinion of Ian Fleming after you hear today's episode.  

With Kirsty Lang. Morecambe and Wise are remembered and revived in a new stage production called Eric And Little Ern, which follows on from a TV biopic of the double-act, a one-man show about Eric Morecambe, and the award-winning The Play What I Wrote. The writers and stars of this latest homage, Ian Ashpitel and Jonty Stephens, discuss the reasons for the comedians' enduring appeal. Performance poet and rapper Kate Tempest won this year's Ted Hughes Prize for innovation in poetry for Brand New Ancients, an hour long spoken story depicting the intertwining lives of two families. As she begins a tour which will take the show all over the country, she explains who the Brand New Ancients are and reveals the play that changed her life. James Bond producers found themselves embroiled in a legal dispute with Kevin McClory - a co-writer of the 1965 film Thunderball - over who invented the cat-stroking supervillain Blofeld. As a result, the character was left on the shelf for 30 years but with news that the relevant rights have been acquired from the McClory estate, it looks like our most famous screen villain could be given a new lease of life. To reflect on the character of Blofeld and why he has become so ubiquitous in popular culture, journalist Stephen Armstrong came to the rescue. And 50 years after his death, the Chronicles of Narnia writer CS Lewis has been honoured with a memorial stone in Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey. The Dean of Westminster, the Very Reverend Dr John Hall, explains how the selection process works. Produced by Ella-mai Robey.

Join us for the second part of our conversation about 1965's 007 epic Thunderball.  We continue to discuss our theories and opinions on Domino, Largo, and James Bond himself.  Plus, background on the messy court battles surrounding the making and release of Thunderball and producer Kevin McClory, and who is Kutzy anyway?  All this and more with Jason, Jimmy & Jonathan this month on BondCast! 

We continue our trek through Bond by exploring the fruits of Kevin McClory's judicial labors and what The Boys From Brooklyn consider the Heart of Darkness of the series. Plus Derrick's choice for the worst Bond Girl ever, busted 70's pilots, and Christopher Walken impressions!
