James Bond Playlist: kzfaq.info/sun/PLQHhQlj8i5dp_oymDpZRwVEgCMP9fUpks LIKE THE VIDEO if you want me to continue the Bond series!

Ah Goldfinger, the Bond movie where they finally cracked the formula for decades afterward. Cold open mission, big musical intro, briefing with M, flirting with Moneypenny, gadget briefing with "Q", taunting the villains through multiple encounters, villain henchman. Pretty much all the pieces are here now. You can't quit Bond now, gotta watch them all!

The first two films were successful, but this was the one that made the Bond films into a legendary series.

This is one of my favorite Bond movies, and it has the best quote in the whole series "Do you expect me to talk?!" "No, Mr. Bond... I expect you to die."

Honor Blackman was such a badass, not only did she know Judo for real, she actually wrote a self defense book for women and during the press tour for the movie she took every opportunity to say the name Pussy Galore just to make the reporters uncomfortable.

One of the great movie lines. "You expect me to talk?" "Noooo Mr. Bond, I expect you to die"

This movie started the Aston Martin DB5's popularity. The car used in this film was just found after missing for 25 years.

YES JEN!!! This Bond is the one that really made the 007 franchise take off. Thank you again for returning to these films, and reacting to them in release order. Goldfinger was truly the first real supervillain in this series of movies (until you get to the Bolfeld character) This is one of my personal favorites. Always here for your reactions! I sure you'll have some funny quips thrown in as well! Holding my breath until it starts!

"The Great Escape" is an outstanding WW2 movie based on an even more amazing true story that is also kind of like a "caper" movie because it involves an intricate plan that has to be carried out surreptitiously under the noses of the authority figure antagonists.

The reason the gold bar seemed cheap to you is that the price of gold in 1964 was roughly $35.00 per oz. Today it is $1700.00 per oz. Thanks for a wonderfully animated reaction.

“He is afraid of his own hat”. Don’t hear that in every film. Thanks for this one, Jen.

"Bondy just does whatever he wants: 'It's okay; I'm handsome' " 🤣

Jen Murray's Bond reactions is my new favorite thing.

It was only the 3rd film. But it was a phenomenon within the phenomenon. Good story, theme song, dialogue, villains, girls, action, sexiness, etc. 007 was a much bigger number than before. This was when it truly became a franchise. Blockbuster-wise, theaters stayed open 24 hrs just to keep the crowds pleased. Product-wise; clothes, cars, cologne or anything that was connected to Bond was being sold like crazy. For the James Bond establishment on film, it set the bar even higher.

"You expect me to talk?" "No, Mr. Bond. I expect you to die." "Great line." - One of the most famous lines from the movie... :)

I like my reactions shaken....not stirred! This movie is generally rated as the most "favorite" Bond movie on polls over the years.

We're gonna keep going with the Bonds! Goldfinger is top 5 of all time in my opinion, be great to see you rank them when we get through them all, great reaction!

Two of my all time favourite movies are Goldfinger and Bullitt with Steve McQueen. I just love the style and fashions of the period, and I don't think any other lead actors ever looked cooler on screen. Both have killer soundtracks too.

Great reaction, Jen! I love that you named the music low key MVP. This is the Bond movie that first incorporates the music and imagery in the title sequence that continue for every Bond movie since. An epic title song featured with silhouetted women and themed imagery become just as iconic as anything the character says or does. Seven Bond theme songs would go on to become top ten hits on the Billboard Hot 100 (including Shirley Bassey’s Goldfinger).

Love that you’re viewing all the classic “Bondy” films! I think you’ll have fun. But when you are done, you have to - have to - watch the Austin Powers movies. They hilariously parody all the scenes you’ll recognize even in the films so far.

I think I like Thunderball the best of Connery Bond films. It has a cool opening sequence and, if memory serves, a lot of interesting underwater sequences.

Definitely keep watching them in order! I'll admit they're not all good, but going through the series in order really lets you appreciate how it and moviemaking in general evolved over the decades.

So let's resume, Maps, timers, explosions, Jen will need gadgets for her escape, and also, she really really cares about people...example : " If she's killed by this hat i am gonna be really pissed " and let's not forget" Bondi, you gotta save your junk".... Epic Jen........I have seen this film...100 times but never enjoyed it so much......thank you so much...

It's interesting to note that No. 1, the head of SPECTRE, is never played by the same actor twice until the Daniel Craig films. I always thought that Max Von Sydow was the most iconic of the villainous, cat loving, leaders. My favorite henchman has always been Jaws. You'll see him later in the Roger Moore era, Jen. He was in two Bond films since he was very popular at the time. It's too bad that they stopped having such memorable and unique henchpeople in the later Bonds. They were always a staple of the classic films.

Very glad that you've easily caught up with tropes and archetypes in Bond movies that quick! Goldfinger is the only Connery Bond movie that takes a breather from SPECTRE. I dunno if you've seen them already, but the Austin Powers movies have huge influence in satirizing the Sean Connery era of Bond films.

This is the movie that set the formula !!!!!! The car , the story of the car is almost as fun as the Movies. Years later a collector with not the best background bought it. They stored it in a airport hanger . One night someone got past security and stole one of the most famous movie cars ever. It has never been seen again. All kinds of rumors on where it is but the car that is probably worth 10 Million Dollars today, has been lost and may never be found.

Your reaction to Ms. Galore’s name was absolutely PRICELESS! So glad you’re going through the Bond movies! Keep up the great content!!

Great reaction! Fun Fact: Moneypenny is played by Lois Maxwell a Canadian born in Kitchener Ontario. She has appeared in 14 of the James Bond movies. She was also in a popular show I watched as a kid, taking place in Ontario, Adventures in Rainbow Country. Margot Kidder, Lois Lane in Superman, was also in the show. Small world.

The thing about "Goldfinger", unlike "Dr. No" or "From Russia with Love" that you have to understand is the is where the foundation was set establishing the standard for every Bond film that was to follow. It was the formula that made the franchise successful. All movies start with the completion of his former mission, or the fallout of the same. Then there's the plot established by the villain, the assignment by M, the banter between Bond and Moneypenny, the gadgets offered via Q Branch, the location where the story takes place, the first meeting between Bond and the arch villain, (who is always a rich megalomaniac), the sacrificial lamb, who dies, the situation where Bond meets the Fin Fatal who is caught up in the plot, the chief hitch man who traps Bond, followed by the tense moments where Bond defeats the evil plan. Has his way with the girl and moves on.

You'd make a fantastic Moneypenny. Your cute glasses and mischievous smile are perfect for the part. 🤭🥰

"It's ok...I'm handsome." Another great quip, Jen!

There was an Aston Martin DB Mark III car in Ian Fleming's Goldfinger novel, but the Aston Martin company was by no means particularly enthusiastic about the Bond film. John Stears, a two-time Academy Award-winning special effects expert, went to Aston Martin to try and make a deal with them. Among the cars he saw a beautiful prototype DB5 and fell in love with it. It was not easy but John Stears eventually charmed Aston Martin's general manager and they got the car. With the success of the Goldfinger, the sales of Aston Martin went up by 60 percent and after that they never had any more problems getting cars from manufacturers for Bond films. The first so called Bond car (DB5) in Goldfinger made such an impression that it has since appeared in six more Bond films.

I am thoroughly enjoying this journey of the Bond movie reactions with you Jen and I can't wait to see 'Moore' - haha see what I did there?

One of my favorites. Honestly, there's just such a good nostalgia for the older Bond movies that aren't so damn serious or trying to push bizarre agendas and narratives these days. These were just fun, at times outlandish, cool, sexy, action-y movies that never took themselves too seriously and certainly didn't patronize the audience.

Goldfinger was played by German actor Gert Fröbe. However, he spoke little English and it was felt that he was too difficult to be understood as he had to speak his lines phonetically, so, actually, his voice was dubbed for virtually the entire movie by English actor Michael Collins

5:52 is one of the most iconic images in movie history.

This Bond film had everything: the music, the villains, the locations, the plot - and the girl. I always rank this one as the best, along with "On Her Majesty's Secret Service". Fun fact: Honor Blackman (Pussy Galore) was one of the original co-stars of the tv series "The Avengers", long before Diana Rigg made the series popular. Definitely keep watching them, Jen!

Don't skip any of them! Please watch them all in release order. Some are better than others, but they're all worth watching at least once.

17:05 "oh Bondy" (after he crashes). He wasn't just a clutz. He had to turn to avoid a head-on crash (but it really was his own headlights reflected in a mirror)

This movie had some of the greatest lines ever

Great review Jen, thoroughly enjoying watching these reviews with you, please continue with the Bond movies and keep to the release order

Seeing you face light up with the explosions is pure GOLD. The Bond girl counter is hilarious. If you like heist movies watch HEAT or THE SCORE

"I feel like this is very classic Bond" Indeed it is. Even up until the last decade or so, Goldfinger was considered THE Bond film; the one to beat. This is where all the series' main tropes were truly born. Loving your reactions to my favorite film franchise, Jen! PLEASE keep going!

9:00 - Auric Goldfinger was played by Gert Fröbe. Fröbe, who spoke little English, said his lines phonetically, but was too slow. To redub him, he had to double the speed of his performance to get the right tempo. The only time his real voice is heard is during his meeting with members of the Mafia. Bond is hidden below the model of Fort Knox whilst Fröbe's natural voice can be heard above. However, he was redubbed for the rest of the film by TV actor Michael Collins. The match is widely praised as one of the most successful dubs in cinema history.

Its just fun to hear your british dialect during these 007 movies 😊

Hey Jen, "Goldfinger" is the "Bondiest" of the Bond films and has everything you'd want in a spy movie, just the way you said it. It's definitely my favorite of the Sean Connery Bond films. This also has one of the film's treasured henchmen, Oddjob, the literal "silent but deadly" flunkie with his deadly Bowler. Ya gotta love it! 🎩 Definitely continue with "Thunderball". Also, in the future at some time, you have to add the "Kingsman" and "Austin Powers" film series to your reactions. You'll love them if you want to see excellent spy films. Thanks again for another enjoyable reaction! 💰🪙

I love this one. Even the golfing stuff because 007's caddie is a hilarious weirdo.

These novels by Fleming were favorites of President John Kennedy. When we lost him the U.S. was hurting Bad.The U.K. came to the rescue. The Beatles and Goldfinger. 😊Think you for adding to my memory of our great culture together ❤.

Lol love that Jen keeps saying gggggoooolldddd like gold member....🤣🤣🤣

If you liked the gadgets in this movie, you’ll love the gadgets he uses in Thunderball!

I grew up in New York city. I was 10 when Goldfinger came out and I remember the line at the movie theater was 2 blocks long. After the move came there were action figures. There was an Odd Job figure that could throw his hat and an Aston Martin DB5 model with an ejector seat, machine guns and the bullet proof shield. The car cost $4 dollars and My allowance was 50 cents a week. I didn’t get candy, soda or comic books and just saved my money for the toy car. I went to a catholic school and the boys were required to wear ties, which we hated. After Goldfinger, we got rid our clip on ties for real ones and wore blazers to school so we could look like 007.

On July 17, 1970, New Orleans International in Louisiana became the first airport to use magnetometers to detect weapons-or anything made of metal-together with behavioral profiling of passengers.

Hands down my favorite Bond film....awesome!!

When I saw this in the movies in 1965 it was so far ahead of it’s time. Enjoyed watching your reaction, especially your facial expression when Pussy Galores character was introduced. She was played by Honor Blackman a well respected English actor who I believe was older than Sean Connery

This is where Bond movies hit their stride and established what people expect from Bond movies. This and the next one are two of the all-time greats.

Moneypenny was Canadian Actress Lois Maxwell. Many “American” parts and voiceovers were done by Canadians at the time, as it was easier for them to get work visas for U.K.

The height of Bond. Keep on going in release order Jen. 😊

Yes! Definitely continue with Thunderball please 😌

Goldfinger is the film that established the Bond movie ‘formula’ that exists to this day: gun barrel walk, pre-credits sequence, sultry movie theme song with the racy credits, meeting with M, Q, Moneypenny and the villain, gadgets, amazing set designs for the villain’s lair, etc.

Your reaction to P. Galore revealing her name was priceless.

This movie made the franchise big- Dr. No and from Russia with Love were then re-shown in cinemas because of the popularity of Goldfinger.

Connery in that grey suit... The peak of male coolness!

I absolutely love this movie. It’s might even be my favorite of the Bond films. It defined the franchise. The theme is amazing. The plot is amazing. The characters are amazing. The villain is amazing. Everything about this movie is amazing. I was waiting for you to get to this one in particular and it did not disappoint. Looking forward to more of your reactions to the Bond movies.

GOLDFINGER in my opinion is the Best Bond Film ever!!!The opening is the best opening to any movie I've seen!!!The musical soundtrack to this one in particular was Astounding!!And Shirley Bassey doing the theme song!!!The best gadgets too!!!Aston Martin DB5 with modifications!!!The Best Villian!!!!

Thunderball YES! The Goldfinger theme, sung br Shirley Bassey, is the best Bond theme song IMO. Followed closely by “Golden Eye” sung by Tina Turner. The Thunderball theme song is sung by Tom Jones, and is another banger.

Definitely keep going! There’s no such thing as a bad Bond film (just some “less good” ones…). Always fun and good entertainment value in the suave spy-guns-cars-girls-villains-explosions ratio.

I was 5 years old when we saw this at our local drive-in-theatre. I remember being especially horrified when Goldfinger's driver/killer died from electrocution!

This one set the formula. There's a reason this one is high on the top Bond movie list :) Cool you are continuing with the series!!

Bring on: "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" !!! ....Such a good movie in it's own right.

This is THE bond movie. Its the 1st movie that has everything - The gadgets, the bondgirls with the most outragous names the Aston Martin, the original theme and the best Bond theme of them all (although Live & Let Die comes a close 2nd). Some fun facts - Pussy Galore was played by Honnor Blackman, who played Kathy Gayle, the 1st woman partner of John Steed in the UK TV series The Avengers (not the marvel stuff) from the 1960s, When she left Diana Rigg replaced her as Mrs Peel. This is very much a cult series, that was ressurected in the 1970s as The New Avengers and appeared in the late 1990s as a movie with Uma Thurman as Mrs Peel. The Theme song Goldfinger was sung by Dame Shirley Bassey who did 2 further Bond Themes (Diamonds are Forever and Moonraker) and is the only singer to do more than 1 Bond Theme.

I first saw 'Goldfinger' 60 yrs ago, during the summer between my sophomore and junior yrs in high school. I snuck into the theater through the rear exit with my buddy, Jackie. It was a smash hit then, and I enjoyed the Bond mystique. But now it just seems like a giddy, cheesy romp. The best part of the experience is the 007 Goldfinger theme song, sung with power and beauty by Miss Shirley Bassey. Her story about the recording is captivating - see Wikipedia for the funny details.

This is one of if not the most iconic bond movies ever! It’s also debatably the best one.

This movie maybe from the 60s but it still holds up and still one of the best Bond films.

My favorite Bond film is 3 films in the series away, but it's a good idea to watch the series development even though they don't follow the novels' chronology. But please be sure to watch ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE.

Jen, we think your accent is wonderful. You have nothing to be worried aboot.

I haven't seen all the Bond films, but I've heard that this one is one of the very best.

Whilst they become a mixed bag, it is probably worth doing them all because they are all entertaining, The Bond franchise swings between the perfect blend of action and wit, through to too jokey or too poe-faced, but I doubt any of them would feel like a waste of time and they are all worthy of reactions.

Your accent is spot on.

I also love the idea of Jen as a villain. She does love to crack a good safe , an affinity for fat stacks and diamonds, and loves a good heist / plan .

Love how you watched all the SC bond films. Unlike some others.

I was allowed to go to one of the downtown theaters in San Diego at young mature age of 11. It definitely made a lasting impression on this very young man.

Corduroy?! Then how could she be sneaky?! When I had a Corduroy jacket, et cetera, it was noisy! By the way! In your "Star Trek" reactions, I meant to let you know how impressed I was that you could identify individual musical instruments from each other as you were doing! 🖖

I thought you would really eye roll when she said her name, especially when he says "i must be dreaming" lol. I laugh every time at the look on his face.

You: “ Are we going to see some gadgets?” Me: “You’re going to see THE Bond gadget! The Aston Martin car is the most iconic Bond gadget of all time. So much so that it reappeared in the most recent Bond films, Skyfall and No Time to Die.”

Great premiere and reactions to Goldfinger, Jen!!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽I am partial to Sean Connery's "Diamonds are Forever" (1971). This marked his return to the roll of James Bond after George Lazenby took over the roll in "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" (1969). Roger Moore's first outing as 007 in "Live and Let Die" (1973) is enjoyable too. All three are good picks!

Great reaction as usual! I am waiting for the next one for sure. PS The hanchman Oddjob played by the actor Harold Sakata burned his hand while retriving the hat when he was electrocuted...and when asked why you dindn't you let go he replied "The director didn't say cut" keep up the great reactions take care!

Margaret Nolan was the golden girl in the title sequence. She also played Dink in Miami when we first see Bond.

Love the reaction and memories. Worth watching all the Connery Bond movies. 8 Years old when this played in the theaters. What a great time to be a kid in the 60s. Color TV was just coming into homes. The space race was happening, and this movie sent bond movies into the stratosphere. No pun intended. So many 007 toys aimed at kids to bug the crap out of your parents to buy. Did anyone have the 007 attaché case or die-cast Aston Martin DB5 Goldfinger car?

Woohoo Another Bond! Go Jen!

Great reaction! I like your entertaining commentary. You should watch the whole 007 series in chronological order!

Fun fact, Led Zeppelin guitarist, Jimmy Page played on the Goldfinger theme, he tells a story during the documentary, It Might Get Loud, that Shirley Bassey sang the theme in one take and collapsed at the end!

Love the line: 'can't it wait, Felix? Something big's just come up!'

These Bond reactions are great. I'd happily view your reactions to all the movies, if you're up for it.

Thunderball has Tom Jones singing the title song. That alone makes the movie worthwhile

Many fans consider this the best entry in the Bond series. Perhaps the best villain-henchman combo in Goldfinger-Odd Job ever!! Thanks, Jen!😃

“Bondy, you gotta save your junk!” 😂 Jen, you have the BEST comments! “I don’t know, in the right circumstances, I might have made a very good villain.” The RIGHT circumstances? I really think you could 😅

Thanks for the reaction! Great!! For my money, I think you should react to EVERY Bond movie, and do them in chronological (theatrical release date) order.

Thunderball is one of the best Bonds.

One of my favorite quotes Bond: Here for the hunting season? I had a case just like that one. Tilly: It's for my ice skates. Bond: Lovely sport.

13:02 on an episode of Mythbusters, they recreated this stunt and...yes it does work like that! LOL
