In episode 10, the hosts discuss 1974’s The Man with the Golden Gun, the final film in the franchise directed by Guy Hamilton and the second appearance of Sir Roger Moore as James Bond. When MI6 receives a message in the form of a golden bullet with 007 etched on the side, they know it can only mean one thing: infamous assassin Francisco Scaramanga’s (Christopher Lee) next target is Bond. Bond is removed from his current assignment–investigating the disappearance of a missing solar scientist and his invention that might solve the ‘70s energy crisis–to hunt down Scaramanga and remove the threat. Will Bond find Scaramanga before Scaramanga finds him? Who will prove to be the better marksman: Bond with his Walther PPK or Scaramanga with his golden gun? The film features Britt Ekland as Mary Goodnight, Maud Adams (in her first Bond appearance) as Andrea Anders, Hervé Villechaize as Nick Nack, Soon-Taik Oh as Lieutenant Hip, Michael Goodliffe in the first appearance of Bill Tanner, and, for some reason, Clifton James returns as Sheriff J.W Pepper.

The hosts are joined for this special episode by Fangoria editor-in-chief and Bond aficionado Phil Nobile Jr. to discuss the news that Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson are stepping back from the Bond franchise and that Amazon now has full creative control of the franchise going forward. This marks a huge departure from Bond status quo as a member of the Broccoli family has overseen production of every canonical Bond film since 1962’s Dr. No. The hosts and Phil discuss their reactions to the news and the legacy of the Broccolis on James Bond films.
