  • Join me as we go aboard the HMS Belfast for a Bond Experience like no other. The British James Bond Fan Club had a mission for us! The mission? To honor Bond director John Glen while raising money for UNICEF and bringing together hundreds of Bond fans for a night of celebration. A part of the evening was a moment when I had the distinct honor of interviewing John Glen about his work on Bond, and his answers will blow you away. So sit back, adjust your life vest, and come with me on this exciting operation from The British Bond Fan Club!

    When David is not running an advertising and marketing company, his hobby is The Bond Experience which is primarily a video blog where he discusses Bond experiences and the people and brands that help to create those experiences...
    The mantra of living like Bond, one moment at a time emanates from a concept of experiencing the joy of collecting small moments in life that add up to amazing journeys and stories....whether it's through style, locations, literature, fitness, and the movies themselves the world of Bond is explored through its people and their stories.
    Ultimately though, The Bond Experience channel is a celebration of the James Bond franchise and the many people that form a true community. Our core mission is to create a strong connection in the Bond community amongst all the fans, regardless of interest or demographic.

    What a gent John Glen is. Someone in his position could easily say no to all these events/podcasts etc. He really embraces the fanbase and comes across as a really decent man.

    I loved John Glen's directing on Bond. For Your Eyes Only, Living Daylights and Licence to Kill are always in my top 10 list of Bond movies, and I've grown to appreciate Octopussy over the years. He really doesn't get enough credit for keeping the Bond franchise alive (and fun) through the 80's. Thank you John, you legend!

      Yes, the third act of Octopussy is one of the best action set pieces in the series.

    John Glen's era is my favourite. He confirmed my theory that the secret to Roger's longevity in the series is how he treated people on set; a humourous true English gentleman. It did tug at my heartstrings a little seeing that the evening was to raise funds for Unicef. The different chapters of Roger's work intertwining to make even more of a difference. What a legacy. Excellent interviewing by David.

    Oh my word, got emotional watching that myself. You can see Mr Glen's legacy in movies to this day.. My God, Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning was a complete homage to his era of Bond, I could even write a book on how much was paid tribute to the Glen era in that film. Wonderful! I am also gutted that I had to miss 'this' comic con... I was in London but with my good lady for a few days. So with regret couldnt get over there. Looking forward to your coverage of that David and thanks again for the brilliant work...

  • @nethaendafendr
    @nethaendafendr Рік тому +10

    You could really say Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning was a homage to John Glen’s Bond, from the more serious tone to the sinking of the sea vessel at the beginning to the entity system referencing the ATAC to the small yellow car to the fight above the train…

    21:20 I totally agree, The Living Daylights is one of the best Bond films in my opinion, definitely has its darker tone but still a fun and tonewise balanced film. Hopefully, the new era will be lighter and somewhere close to Daylights.

    Fantastic video and presentation, a true rare glimpse into the scene. Thank you for asking abut The Living Daylights. The movie has had a lot of people hammering it over the years, and yes the middle part is saggy, but it is hugely under-rated. I might have asked about the Brosnan angle, as he was meant to be in that role, on the flying carpet and everything.
