Oh hi,

This week on FilmSack, we set our “tight budget year, scaled back, secret agent man, gadget watches” to Double Zero Seven and ask for Moore…. Roger Moore as we prepare for the next decade of this previous Saint who was kind enough to take over the role of British Agent slash Sexy Lover Man (oh the sacrifice) to LIVE AND LET DIE for the voodoo that the new Bond do, in this 1973 installment of the franchise that asked “what if we gave Bond the Shaft… shut your mouth… treatment.” Oh man. I’m shaken and stirred for a 20 year old Jane Seymour. Neat.

Anywho, earlier this week I stopped by my local “Oh Cult Voodoo Shop” to pick up some playing cards for a few rounds of Spades with with my brother-in-law over the weekend, you know… the one with the speedboat. Long story short. We are now lovers. I knew I should have just went to Walgreens. Curses!  

Randy, new bond… who dis? and why yes… yes this is an exceptionally long cigar that I have in my mouth.
