Comedian Rory Cargill joins me to defend Die Another Day. The final Pierce Brosnan James Bond film that pushed the 007 franchise to its most absurd limits.We discuss why Die Another Day acts as a fascinating time capsule right before the gritty Daniel Craig era, the bizarre creative choices from director Lee Tamahori, and whether its 55% Rotten Tomatoes score is truly justified. We dive deep into the movie's infamous moments, including the invisible car, Madonna's wildly divisive theme song, Toby Stephens' incredibly posh performance as Gustav Graves, and the shockingly bad CGI kite-surfing sequence. Along the way, we debate the best and worst James Bond films, the lost art of elaborate henchmen, and why the film's campy tone might actually be its greatest strength.Away from the movie, Rory talks about taking his new comedy show to the Edinburgh Fringe, his fascination with the bizarre psyches of UK TV legends like Noel Edmonds and Richard Madeley, and we wrap up with a tense, action-movie edition of our Rotten Tomatoes game, Movie 501.⭐ Support the show on Patreon for:Episodes 24 hours earlyAd FreeBonus ContentExclusive Polls and Updatespatreon.com/everyonesacriticpod
