A complete fail by TVNZ. We're in the middle of TV One's Saturday night Bond season. This week's film is Sean Connery in 1965's Thunderball. If it seems very familiar, that's because last week's film - 1983's Bond film, Never Say Never Again - was an 'unofficial' remake of Thunderball, almost identical in everything but name, and again starring Sean Connery.
Hmm, or is this a joke played by a knowing TV One scheduler? Following Thunderball is the Jim Carrey film Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind - a film about the surgical removal of unwanted memories. It's either very clever programming or a complete fluke...
Am I missing something? Don't all James Bond films follow the same plot?
