"Wow! What a view!" "To a KILL!" We watched "A View to a Kill" with special guest Garrett Mitchell and this is now officially a Grace Jones appreciation podcast. With twenty five James Bond films to choose from, we thought long and hard about which one to cover here at MTMUG. Daniel Craig emerging from the sea like Ursula Andress before him in "Casino Royale" was hard to ignore, but the siren song of a platinum blonde Christopher Walken, the gorgeous "Sheena" herself Tanya Roberts and the ICON Grace Jones made "A View to a Kill" a no brainer. Walken's tech-bro villain has aspirations of monoplizing the Silicon Valley by way of a "double earthquake" and floods, but thats not why were here. Jones as the first ever hench-Woman May Day is serving looks, spouting quips and perfoming feats of strength that had us screaming "Mother!" every time she was on screen. Okay, we can talk about Roger Moore playing Bond for the Seventh(!) and final time. For 57 years young, Moore was still turning it out as Bond. He more than made up for a lack of chemistry with his leading Bond girl with some great scenes with Grace. And we can't forget the killer theme song by Duran Duran - pure 80's new wave radness!
