James Bond rip off!!!!!!!


James Bond rip !!!!!!!!! it was hokey

It's called satire. A spoof.

Was "Spaceballs" a rip-off of "Star Wars"?

I wish they'd made more than two but the spy craze was beginning to slip in the late 60's.

The best? It wasn´t nearly as outrageous as it should have been - and in long stretches it was just plain dull with nothing much happening. Modesty Blaise of the same year is way more "out there".

Another fine example of how horribly our educational standards have fallen.

IT'S A SATIRE, YOU TROGLODYTIC JERK. Not a rip-off! Oh, my God, how freakin' stupid are people?

It's all supposed to be FUN-NY! HELLL-OOOO!!!

It's a parody.

It knows full well that it is spoofing James Bond, right down to Gila reading a novel (I think it was a Fleming book, not sure) and remarking that it was ridiculous and that there was no real man like that! The irony being that Flint was even more ridiculous!

Dude, you really need to see things for what they are. You may get more enjoyment out of life that way.
