Giant Bombcast 08/18/2015

We've got thoughts on movies new and old, and by golly, you're gonna hear 'em. Also: video game tattoos, way too much Metal Gear, doping in electronic sports, and Dan's unexpected spiritual awakening. Don't forget to tip your server!

The Giant Bombcast is the world's most beloved video game podcast, and now it's available in video form.

Weird, I just re-watched Moonraker not two days ago, I hope they actually talk about it at length.

That movie is so bonkers. Space Shuttles! Hover-gondolas! Unexpected western sequences! Jaws romantic subplots! Literal Amazonian women! Pigeons doing double takes! It's incredible.

Metal Gear Scanlon was nothing but a smokescreen.

I was promised all the Metal Gear, I was promised Peacewalker and Revengeance.

They played me like a damn fiddle!

Peace Walker is nowhere near as bad gameplay-wise as people say it is... The HD version anyway.

@blackout62: I have no strong opinions on the Bond franchise, but Moore might be my favourite Bond.

Wouldn't surprise me, the Roger Moore bond is exactly the kind of goofy stuff he has praised before.

Have not yet listened, but I would bet the farm that Sean Connery is his favorite

Why is he "rape-y"? I'm not familiar with him.

Yeah, as soon as he described the Connery movies as boring I knew his favorite would be Moore.

Roger Moore is the worst Bond. Like I'm not even a fan of the Connery films but they are on another level when compared to Moore.
