Gadgets in GOLDENEYE and TOMORROW NEVER DIES

How many of the gadgets do you remember from Pierce Brosnan’s first two James Bond movies, GOLDENEYE and TOMORROW NEVER DIES? In this episode, Dan and Tom decode about 30 of them.  We also let you know if we think a gadget is believable! 

So, how many different pitons do we talk about in these two movies?  Do we think they are believable? Do you? 

Tom calls out a favorite weapons/gadgets in any movie and how TOMORROW NEVER DIES enhances that! 

How realistic is an exploding pen?  How about digital scopes with the ability to transmit data?  Would either of those things have worked in 1995 when GOLDENEYE was released or in 1997 with the release of TOMORROW NEVER DIES? 

And, what was that thing in Wai Lin’s lab that took the one thug out? 

How many different uses did we point out for the remote controlled BMW and it’s remote control? 

So have a listen, getting a better understanding of these gadgets will enhance your viewing experience next time you watch GOLDENEYE or TOMORROW NEVER DIES.
