This week on SERIESLY, we're looking at Sean Connery's favorite Bond film (and an adaptation of JFK's 9th favorite book of all time), FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE. A clerk at the Soviet embassy tells the British government she wants to defect, and bring a complex decoding device with her. MI6 knows it's a trap, but does either side really know how far down the rabbit hole goes?

This week on SERIESLY, I'm watching THE Bond film. You know, THE movie. The one with the death laser table, the one with Fort Knox, the one with "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to DIE!" It's GOLDFINGER! The British government suspects an international gold dealer / jeweler of illegally smuggling materials overseas, so Bond is send in to investigate. But his snooping into the case reveals a much grander plan, and the ultimate crime. Can Bond put an end to Goldfinger's insane plan and save the world?

This week, it's the film infamous for being tangled in a decade-long string of script treatments, legal disputes, and inevitably the death of Ian Fleming himself. What movie could possibly cause all this mayhem and despair? It's the one, the only, THUNDERBALL. SPECTRE's Number Two, Emilio Largo, has stolen two atomic bombs, and is holding Miami for a million-pound ransom. Can Bond locate the bombs before Florida is annihilated?
