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!
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...
You ask all the right questions. A treat to hear from John Glenn. Love the films he made Roger and Timothy. Got a good feel for what it was like at that event. Thank you!
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…
And the motorcycle jump, not from a Glen film but the parachute scene from TSWLM. MI is doing a lot of copycat Bonds stunts. But 007 always does it better!
Unvelievable...when I lived in London in 2000, none of those east end skyscrapers were built yet...so weird to see such an ancient city with a modern skyline, so close to the Tower Bridge. Love this Phil guy...what a class act! Hope everyone cherished this amazing experience! Phenomenally conducted interview, David! Glen directed my favorite Bond film, For Your Eyes Only
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.
Great interview David. It's awesome to see John Glenn is still full of stories about the Bond movies. I think my favorite movie was the spy who Loved me. Of which John Glenn was directing the second unit.
Brilliant video. I was there the next day for your Comic Con panel. I thought at the time you did a brilliant job hosting that, asking the right questions, making sure each lady got their moment to answer etc. As I now learn you did that in 2-3 hours sleep it’s all the more impressive.
John Glen is now 91 years old amazing , you were able to talk to him. As he is now closer to death , I will never get a chance to meet him , but at least he has left his mark on the James Bond films
@@TheBondExperience I agree I would also like to meet you in person just to talk but I am in the UK and cant afford to travel to America :( you have the best James Bond channel on youtube
Amazing thank you ! John Glen is Legend! I was lucky enough to attend An evening with Sir Roger Moore not long before he passed away , what an amazing night and what a recontour and a Gentleman. I can well understand the love out their for Sir Roger .
Wow must’ve been superb to speak with John there. He’s heavily involved including directed some too in 6 of my top 10 Bond films! TSWLM (3rd), Octopussy (4), OHMSS (7), FYEO (8), Moonraker (9), LTK (10). Phenomenal. Thank you John for bringing so much enjoyment in all your films. Roger is my number 1 Bond. And thank you David for the interview and sharing your experience aboard the HMS Belfast.
An absolute joy to watch and hear! Thanks for sharing. I loved hearing John speak as a coworker and friend of the actors, not their boss. He knew them and would make sure the scripts and scenes stayed true to their person. Very insightful.
Very well hosted, I am impressed. Thanks for giving John Glenn his stage. That was enjoyable. Surprised you didn't wear the Spectre watch with that white Tux!
Really impressive interview man! One thing that i wished you did is asking one certain question. Since John Glen was the editor behind OHMSS i would really like to hear him talk about that infamous deleted London chase scene and if there is still any possibility to see that in a re-release as a special feature?
I have a new appreciation for his contributions now after hearing about how it was to work on and create some of these films. Fantastic interview David! I liked your questioning because it was definitely more interesting like you said than his biography. Hope you get more interviews in the future and congrats to the Bond Club for all of their work being so successful and entertaining.
Thanks for this. I'd like to have asked him about Pierce Brosnan's casting and the parting of ways with him and License to kills writers strike and hectic production. keep up the great work
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.
Amazing interview, congrats Mr Zaritsky. John Glen is such a trooper and gentleman to do this. My Top 5 Glen Directed Bond films: 1 For Your Eyes Only 2 The Living Daylights 3 Octopussy 4 Licence to Kill 5 A View to a Kill
Will you be covering the upcoming auction of Rogers personal collection? I have been looking through the lots and there's some fantastic bond memorabilia coming up!
I really enjoyed that one. John Glem is an extremely talented individual and very humble about it. David, if you happen to read this, I'd be interested in your general view of the UK and related to Bond. I would imagine you're quite fond of the place as a Bond fan. Maybe you could make a video of the locations used here, including Scotland? Skyfall had some great location work. I don't think they'll let you into the nuclear submarine base used in TSWLM!
Just come across this particular addition to your burgeoning body of work. David in the Goldfinger garb you really do look the bees knees or the badgers naggers as they say over here. When this is coupled with your sangfroid and debonair charm the outcome is that you become the quintessential link-man / interviewer for this Event. All the questions were obviously brilliantly constructed and as always they were the ones the rest of its would have put to John Glen. You do us proud David!
John Glen’s done pretty well as a Bond director in my eyes. Octopussy and View to a Kill are some of my all time favourite Bond films and License to Kill is a pretty good one too.
He wasn't necessarily an auteur, but Glenn made two of my favorite entries (FYEO and LTK) in the series, one very good one (TLD), and one guilty pleasure (AVTAK).
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.
He is a true gentleman of class!
The best James Bond director ever!!! What a charming man! He's 91 by now? A true living legend!
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.

Perfect interview questions. Thanks for taking us along!
With pleasure!
John Glenn is to Bond ( certainly the 80's era ) what Spielberg is to Indiana Jones. Many amazing conversations to be had with him I'm certain. 👍
Brilliant interview David with the legend that is John Glen! He directed 3 of my favorite Bond films and I loved some of your questions for him.
It was such an honor for me!
Great interview David. It's awesome to see John Glenn is still full of stories about the Bond movies. I think my favorite movie was the spy who Loved me. Of which John Glenn was directing the second unit.
I think we could have spoken for hours!

John Glen 😁 Back when James Bond was fun and not an exhausting pain in the Arsenal it is now. Great work man 💪
So much fun!
Great interview! I met John Glen at a memorabilia show in Birmingham 2002. Good to see he's still going strong 😉
Wow must’ve been superb to speak with John there. He’s heavily involved including directed some too in 6 of my top 10 Bond films!
TSWLM (3rd), Octopussy (4), OHMSS (7), FYEO (8), Moonraker (9), LTK (10). Phenomenal.
Thank you John for bringing so much enjoyment in all your films. Roger is my number 1 Bond.
And thank you David for the interview and sharing your experience aboard the HMS Belfast.
The tanker chase in Licence To Kill, a sequence that Glen worked on closely, it the best chase in a Bond movie.
It's pretty spectacular, even 30+ years later.
Agreed. Such an amazing sequence that still holds up today.
An absolute joy to watch and hear! Thanks for sharing. I loved hearing John speak as a coworker and friend of the actors, not their boss. He knew them and would make sure the scripts and scenes stayed true to their person. Very insightful.
Very well hosted, I am impressed. Thanks for giving John Glenn his stage. That was enjoyable. Surprised you didn't wear the Spectre watch with that white Tux!
Such a wonderful video, Glen's 007 films mean so much to me and what a gracious man he is. Fabulous interviewing skills from Mr Zaritsky! 👏👏
Grew up with Mr. Glen's Bond movies. He's the reason I became a Bond fan, congrats on a successful career..
Simply amazing thanks for posting! So happy to be part of this 007GB club!!🍸

Didn't know he was an editor on 'Shout at the Devil'. That had a lot of Bond connections - Moore, Hunt, Binder & Glen.
Love the John Glen era. Truly a master of his craft. And I don't care what people say, I love AVTAK!!!
This was incredible! So great to hear from John Glen and his thoughts on his films in that particular place in time! Well done!
j glen understood the essence of bond... that's why his movies are so unforgettable for us. good old days...
Wonderfully entertaining video, David!
Thanks...twas a fun night!
Thanks for this. I'd like to have asked him about Pierce Brosnan's casting and the parting of ways with him and License to kills writers strike and hectic production. keep up the great work
Great interview David, John seems like such a gentleman.
Very nice interview. Thanks for sharing David and thank you mister Glen !
wot a brilliant jent John Glen is.
You rock Zaritsky! It's awesome that you got to meet John Glen!
Thank you...it was awesome for me as well!
Glen deserves more credit as a director. He kept the franchise going in the 80s.
Fantastic video and presentation, a true rare glimpse into the scene. Thank you for asking abut The Living Daylights.

Great work David and what a great event missed another party!
Looks great and still very smart.
I've been looking forward to this! Great content as always, David 👍👍
Thanks so much!
Wonderful😍 interview
This is a brilliant video and excellent Interview, David !!
Thanks so much !
Great job. David! Is Mr. Glen a class British act. or what? Now, bring on the Bond Girls!
LOL...bring on the Bond girls indeed!
He came to Dublin for the Living Daylights premiere, signed an autograph and posed for a photo with me. Very pleasant and down to earth.
That's class! Was that at The Savoy? Any other members of the cast and crew there?
@@Jukebox_Jim yea, Necros actor and two of what used to be known as the Bond girls
@@peterfranks6243 His name is Andreas Wisniewski he is a German actor
He makes everyone feel like you are the only one around...great gent.
@@michaelhawkins7389 that's him, the first guy to be killed in Die Hard
Such a beautiful interview!
I'd say it's time we said Sir John Glen...
Keeping the British End Up Sir!
Great stream...
🍻🍻🍻🇬🇧
Thanks!
I wasn't aware that HMS Belfast is used as a venue for events. That event looked like it was a lot of fun.
Its a HUGE ship!
@@TheBondExperience I know. My daughter & I visited the Belfast a few years ago. Very cool tour in a very cool city.
SUPER EVENT!!!
A lot of fun!
Amazing interview, congrats Mr Zaritsky. John Glen is such a trooper and gentleman to do this.

John Glen's 5 Bond movies will live in infamy. Rest in peace Roger Moore. 007.
Infamy? Ouch.
Darlington is right. Octopussy is one of the best James Bond films.
Its grown a ,ot on me!
John Glenn,
PLEASE 🙏 direct the next Bond!
Great interview.
Thanks!
Love the photo bomb from Danielle!😆
She is hilarious!
John Glen’s done pretty well as a Bond director in my eyes. Octopussy and View to a Kill are some of my all time favourite Bond films and License to Kill is a pretty good one too.
Solid gold legend
A true legend did have any pigeon’s with him
LOL....no but lots of double-taking fans!
He is in good shape for his age.
GREAT shape!
He wasn't necessarily an auteur, but Glenn made two of my favorite entries (FYEO and LTK) in the series, one very good one (TLD), and one guilty pleasure (AVTAK).
I might join. M.
stuart lee's looking good
I would have asked John who`s idea was it to have Bond swinging on a vine yelling like Tarzan in Octopussy.
Great video, David. Keep up the good work! Loved seeing John Glen again!!
