007 – the Pierce Brosnan years 1: Goldeneye

Posted on September 26, 2018 by healed1337

Pierce Brosnan portrayed the famous British spy around the time I discovered the series, so it’s hard for me not to think of Brosnan as Bond at times. In fact, of the three major steps in my discovery of James … Continue reading →

007 – the Roger Moore Years 4: Moonraker

Posted on September 14, 2018 by healed1337

007 – the Roger Moore years 3: The Spy Who Loved Me

Posted on September 9, 2018 by healed1337
