I've been trying to keep my inner geek in check during this thread, but can't take it anymore. Yep, into Bond too. Casino Royale was fantastic and I hope they can keep the winning streak going.

As far as spoofs and other spy films...there's a thin line. There were hundreds of spy films in the 60's. Most of them awful, but pretty enjoyable in their awfulness...and a few good ones. 007 was at the top of the list, but try the two Bulldog Drummond spy flicks "Deadlier Than The Male" and "Some Girls Do". The first one is the best. There's a goofy one called, "Operation Kid Brother" starring.........Neil Connery (Sean's Brother) with a bunch of cast members from the Bond films. Everyone knows the Flint and Matt Helm films, of course although I'd put them farther down the list.

The list goes on and on, but check out the Euro Spy Web Board for more info... I have a little Spy music site you might enjoy called Spy Bop Royale
