They Remade It: The Movie Comparison Podcast

In this episode, Stuart and Jacob embark on a wild ride through the world of espionage as they look at the 1967 comedic spoof "Casino Royale" and the much more serious Daniel Craig iteration of 2006. They delve into the absurdity of the original film, which features a star-studded cast and multiple James Bonds, and discuss how its chaotic narrative pokes fun at the spy genre. Is it any good, spoofing a franchise that barely had existed by that point? Is the 2006 version the best of all the Bond films? Does Woody Allen suffer nearly enough?Also featured in this episode are diatribes about Edgar Wright's "The Running Man", an analysis of British comedy, praise for Mads Mikkelsen, and Stuart and Jacob even build their own spoofs.
