Podcast appearances and mentions of Sean Connery

This week, we talk about a comic adaptation where the fictional stories are actually biographies, which perhaps is why the plot is so contrived. We watched The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, what I imagine Sean Connery calls his drinking buddies.  How will The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen hold up? Host: Daniel Panel: Matthew, Nic, and Nur Directed by Stephen Norrington Starring: Sean Connery, Stuart Townsend, Peta Wilson, Jason Flemyng, Naseeruddin Shah, Tony Curran, Shane West, Richard Roxburgh, Max Ryan, Tom Goodman-Hill

Mark Cerulli is a writer, producer, and director who helped create the “Making Of” series giving us the behind the scenes look at GOLDFINGER and THUNDERBALL. Mark tells us how the series was made, behind the scenes stories, his interactions with Sean Connery, and much more. Mark also discusses his documentary BY DESIGN: THE JOE CAROFF STORY.   We KNOW every James Bond fan is familiar with Joe Caroff's work.  Yet, you probably have never heard of him.  Mark fills you in on Joe's major contributions to the James Bond movie franchise as well as other places you will have seen Joe's work.   The documentary is available for streaming on MAX. Finally, Mark discusses his upcoming movie, AREA 5150.  This is the first full-length movie that Mark Cerulli has written and produced. So, have a listen and you'll “Be in the Know”. We had a lot of fun with this interview.   You can check out all of our podcast episodes on your favorite podcast app or on our website. Our channel name is CRACKING THE CODE OF SPY MOVIES.

Sean Connery puts on some Studio 54 costume, Ator rides around and Linnet gets captured but she's a bird so its ok. "The Sword of the Valiant" is a 1984 movie that attempted to adapt the timeless Arthurian legend into a cinematic experience. Unfortunately, this adaptation falls far short of capturing the magic and wonder of the source material. Here's why this film left me thoroughly disappointed: Lackluster Storytelling: The film's plot is a disjointed mess that fails to engage the audience. It veers away from the rich and intricate narrative of the Arthurian legend, opting for a dull and simplified version. The story lacks depth, character development, and emotional resonance, making it difficult to invest in the fates of the characters. Mediocre Acting: The cast, led by Miles O'Keeffe as Sir Gawain and Sean Connery as the Green Knight, delivers performances that are uninspired at best. O'Keeffe's Gawain comes across as wooden and unconvincing, while Connery's talents are utterly wasted on a character that feels one-dimensional. The chemistry between the actors is virtually non-existent, making it difficult to connect with their plights. Poor Production Values: The Sword of the Valiant's production values leave much to be desired. The special effects are laughably outdated, even by 1984 standards, making the fantastical elements of the story seem cheesy and unconvincing. The costume and set design are equally lackluster, failing to transport viewers to the enchanting world of King Arthur's court. Straying from the Source Material: While creative adaptations can breathe new life into classic tales, "The Sword of the Valiant" takes too many liberties with the original legend. It abandons key elements of the Arthurian mythos in favor of a disjointed and uninspired narrative that feels more like a generic fantasy film than a faithful retelling. Missed Opportunity: The Arthurian legend is a treasure trove of rich characters, moral dilemmas, and epic battles. "The Sword of the Valiant" squanders this potential by delivering a forgettable and lackluster film that fails to capture the essence of the legend's enduring appeal. "The Sword of the Valiant" is a lackluster and forgettable adaptation of the Arthurian legend. Its uninspired storytelling, mediocre acting, and poor production values make it a disappointing experience for fans of this timeless tale. There are far better adaptations of the Arthurian legend out there, and I would recommend seeking them out instead of wasting your time on this lackluster film.

You've dealt with us commentating over some pretty bad non-official Bond films so why not another one? Because we're back for our commentary of the grand daddy of all the non-official Bond films, the 1983 movie that saw Sean Connery return to the role and create a battle we didn't know we needed, Never Say Never Again. Are we going to pay attention to this film this time? Are we going to be more complimentary than our last commentary? Did we realise that last line actually rhymed? Why are we so happy to wish Noah a happy birthday two months late? Do we remember the death by piss? Is this movie the movie that aged Sean Connery? Why is Colin so ready to commit assault in this movie? What promise has Ben broken to Noah? And what other movies do we want to watch instead of this?

Una Intrigante Adaptación Literaria en la Pantalla Grande La adaptación cinematográfica de obras literarias ha sido una tradición en la industria del cine durante décadas. Sin embargo, no todas las adaptaciones logran capturar la esencia y la profundidad de la obra original. "El Nombre de la Rosa," dirigida por Jean-Jacques Annaud y basada en la novela homónima de Umberto Eco, es una de esas excepciones notables en las que la película no solo respeta la esencia del libro, sino que también le agrega una dimensión visual y auditiva que eleva la experiencia del espectador. Un Vistazo a la Trama La película, lanzada en 1986, está ambientada en el siglo XIV en un monasterio benedictino en Italia. El protagonista, Guillermo de Baskerville, interpretado por Sean Connery, es un monje franciscano que llega al monasterio para resolver una serie de misteriosas muertes. Su joven aprendiz, Adso de Melk, interpretado por Christian Slater, lo acompaña en esta intriga llena de giros y misterios. La historia se desarrolla en medio de un ambiente opresivo y claustrofóbico, donde la influencia de la Iglesia y el poder monástico son palpables. El conflicto entre la razón y la fe se convierte en un tema central a medida que Guillermo, un hombre de mente abierta y empírico, investiga los asesinatos mientras se enfrenta a la resistencia de la ortodoxia religiosa. Elenco y Actuación La elección del elenco es uno de los puntos más fuertes de la película. Sean Connery ofrece una actuación memorable como Guillermo de Baskerville, mostrando su destreza como un pensador lógico y también como un hombre comprensivo. Christian Slater, en uno de sus primeros papeles importantes, aporta frescura y vulnerabilidad a su personaje, Adso de Melk. Además, el elenco de apoyo, que incluye a figuras notables como F. Murray Abraham y Ron Perlman, aporta profundidad y autenticidad a la representación de los diversos personajes del monasterio. Ambiente y Escenografía La película utiliza el entorno del monasterio con gran habilidad para crear una atmósfera asfixiante y sombría. Los pasillos oscuros, las celdas austeras y las imágenes religiosas ominosas contribuyen a un sentimiento de misterio y tensión. La cinematografía de Tonino Delli Colli es excepcional, capturando los detalles y la belleza de la arquitectura medieval de forma impresionante. La Adaptación Fiel al Libro Una de las razones por las que "El Nombre de la Rosa" se destaca entre las adaptaciones literarias es su fidelidad al material original. La película respeta la complejidad de la novela de Umberto Eco, manteniendo su intrincada trama y diálogos filosóficos. Aunque algunas subtramas se simplifican para ajustarse al formato cinematográfico, la esencia del libro se mantiene intacta. El Diálogo entre Fe y Razón "El Nombre de la Rosa" es mucho más que una simple historia de misterio. A través de los personajes de Guillermo y Adso, la película plantea cuestiones profundas sobre el conflicto entre la razón y la fe, la intolerancia religiosa y el conocimiento. La película invita a los espectadores a reflexionar sobre estas cuestiones sin imponer respuestas definitivas. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Álvaro García de El Fancine- https://elfan-cine.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Antena Historia te regala 30 días PREMIUM, para que lo disfrutes https://www.ivoox.com/premium?affiliate-code=b4688a50868967db9ca413741a54cea5 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Produce Antonio Cruz Edita ANTENA HISTORIA Antena Historia (podcast) forma parte del sello iVoox Originals ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- web……….https://antenahistoria.com/ correo.....info@antenahistoria.com Facebook…..Antena Historia Podcast | Facebook Twitter…...https://twitter.com/AntenaHistoria Telegram…...https://t.me/foroantenahistoria DONACIONES PAYPAL...... https://paypal.me/ancrume ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ¿QUIERES ANUNCIARTE en ANTENA HISTORIA?, menciones, cuñas publicitarias, programas personalizados, etc. Dirígete a Antena Historia - AdVoices Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

Jmenuji se Bond. James Bond. Tak se představoval Sean Connery ve své nejslavnější roli agenta 007. Původně však tuto roli vůbec hrát neměl, protože producenti chtěli někoho slavnějšího. Ti však byli drazí a tak padl návrh na nepříliš známého herce Seana Conneryho. Spisovateli Ianu Flemingovi se nelíbil, protože si Bonda představoval jako snobského aristokrata. Žena jednoho z producentů však řekla, že Connery je báječný a to rozhodlo.

This week's Required Viewing selection is Sidney Lumet's intense, dialogue-driven police thriller, The Offence, in which Sean Connery portrays a dangerous, broken version of the usual hero detective. Then the guys take a look at the long, diverse career of the late, great William Friedkin before running down a smattering of recent things they've seen, including Apple TV+'s The Beanie Bubble. 

Michael, Rob, and Karen Flieger close out the Sean Connery era of the Bond films with Diamonds Are Forever. They talk about the return of Connery, whether it's a worthy follow-up to On Her Majesty's Secret Service, and the wisdom of hiring a jazz musician and Crispin Glover's dad to play assassins. The movie's directed by Goldfinger's Guy Hamilton and also stars Jill St John, Charles Gray, Lana Wood, and Jimmy Dean.

My very good friend Joel Szaefer is back again to talk about another Nic Cage action flick he saw as a very small child. THE ROCK (1996) stars Nic Cage, Sean Connery, Ed Harris, and David Morse. Set on Alcatraz island (the titular Rock -- or is it? We're not so sure), Nic Cage plays Stanley Goodspeed, an FBI chemical warfare expert forced out of the lab and into the action when a reluctant villain, General Hummel (Ed Harris) takes tourists hostage and threatens the city of San Francisco with chemical weapons. Sean Connery plays a former British spy and the only man to ever successfully escape Alcatraz. The feds need him to sneak back into the former prison, so he's paired with Goodspeed. Hijinx ensue.   Talking points: delicious-looking baubles; childhood movie criticism; women in '90s action movies; inexplicable mining operations; and a short digression about a previous episode's movie (THE FAMILY MAN).   Support the podcast and get early episodes and behind-the-scenes extras by visiting: https://linktr.ee/rattlingthecage

Murder by Decree is a 1979 mystery thriller directed by Bob Clark (Director of ‘Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things' and 'Dead of Night' (not the brilliant black and white British film from 1945 - featured in episode 13, but the 1974 American film ), he also directed ‘Black Christmas', ‘Porkys' and ‘Porkys 2' Murder by Decree was written by playwright John Hopkins, who scripted the Bond film Thunderball, and the Alec Guinness TV version of Smileys People. Hopkins referenced Conan Doyle's work, particularly Holmes' deduction and science skills but downplayed other aspects of the characters, such as Holmes' drug use, in favour of making them more likeable and human.Peter O'Toole was originally cast as Sherlock Holmes, and Sir Laurence Olivier was cast as Dr. Watson. But the two actors had not worked well together in the past, and were unable to overcome their differences for this movie. Rather, Holmes is played by Christopher (Captain Georg von Trapp) Plummer and Dr. Watson is played by James Mason.Plummer, described by IMDB as“ perhaps Canada's greatest thespian”, turned down the role of Gandalf in Sir Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, and admits to regretting that decision. Question for James and Jon? Christopher Plummer had two roles in common with Peter Cushing, can you name them?James Mason reportedly, he once saved the life of Max Bygraves' son at a party at Judy Garland's house. The boy fell into the pool and Max did not notice. James Mason did and, fully clothed, he jumped into the water and pulled him out. He was scheduled to play James Bond in a 1958 television adaptation of "From Russia with Love", which was ultimately never produced. Later, despite being in his 50s, Mason was a contender to play Bond in Dr. No before Sean Connery was cast. He later turned down the role of Hugo Drax in the James Bond film Moonraker, which went to Michael Lonsdale.In his autobiography, "In Spite of Myself", Plummer noted that Mason was the best Watson he had seen, and that his death halted a proposed furthering of their on-screen partnership.The film also features:David Hemmings (Blow Up, Deep Red, Brabarella, Gladiator, Magnum Pi and Airwolf) as Inspector Foxborough, Anthony Quayle (Lawrence of Arbia, The Guns of Navarone) as Sir Charles Warren, Frank Finlay (Lifeforce, The Three Musketeers) as Inspector Lestrade, Geneviève Bujold as Annie Crook, Susan Clark as Mary Kelly, John Gielgud as Prime Minister Lord Salisbury, Donald Sutherland as Robert Lees and the Mighty June Brown as Anne ChapmanThe film's premise of the plot behind the murders is influenced by the book Jack the Ripper: The Final Solution, by Stephen Knight, who presumed that the killings were part of a Masonic plot. The original script contained the names of the historical suspects, Sir William Gull and John Netley. In the actual film, they are represented by fictional analogues: Thomas Spivy (Gull) and William Slade (Netley). This theory on the perpetrators of the killings is featured in a number of other Jack the Ripper-themed fictions, including the graphic novel ‘From Hell'.The replica nineteenth century dockland set took two months and fifty men to construct at Shepperton Studio's largest soundstage. The set also included a replica muddy Thames River, Alien was shooting concurrently in the same studios.Support the show by buying from our affiliate links…https://tinyurl.com/Murder-Decree-Blu-rayhttps://tinyurl.com/Murder-Decree-DVDhttps://tinyurl.com/From-Hell-Bookhttps://tinyurl.com/From-Hell-Companion-bookhttps://tinyurl.com/The-Five-Book Get bonus content on PatreonSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/general-witchfinders.

We made it! The final movie before we can finally get to the good stuff. The Last Crusade goes deep into Indiana Jones lore with the adventure being shared with Henry Jones Senior played by Sean Connery. With the return of the Nazi's, a magical religious artifact, booby traps, an origin action sequence and tanks this one has it all. It's a great lead in to the fourth entry.
