James Bond is a popular series of spy movies with over 20 installments released over nearly 50 years. It has been referenced several times in the Homestar Runner body of work.
References
- Email stunt double — Baron Darin Diamonocle resembles Ernst Stavro Blofeld, an antagonist from several James Bond films.
- Peasant's Quest — When the player drops the baby through the hole in the cabin, the game says "Deploying Q-Baby", a reference to the Q-Spider, a James Bond gadget used in the same way.
- Baddest of the Bands — Strong Bad says that the Gremlin has a smoke screen and missiles, a reference to how James Bond's cars are equipped with several devices.
- Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective — There are several James Bond references:
- Telltale Games' official description of the game starts with "Move over, James Bond!".
- Dangeresque says he has a licence to kill, which is not only a phrase uttered by several James Bond characters, but also the title of the sixteenth film in the series.
- Uzi Bazooka brushes The Cheat with his face hidden, similar to how Ernst Stavro Blofeld strokes his cat with his face hidden.
- As stated in the previous episode, the Gremlin was equipped with several James Bond-esque devices, but this time, the player actually uses those devices (in a scene that resembles a car chase) to defeat Killingyouguy.
