Roger Moore: James Bond Revisited – Moonraker

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

James Bond in space! I know, I know – sounds crazy, right? Well, it actually happened back in 1979. In the wake of The Spy Who Loved Me's major box office success, another Bond movie was greenlit, and originally the plan was to do For Your Eyes Only. But then, a little movie called Star Wars came out and the decision was made to compete by making the next 007 flick sci-fi. The result was Moonraker, a Roger Moore James Bond film that's often much maligned by fans, but still has its silly charms as we'll discuss in this instalment of James Bond Revisited!
