New James Bond on Netflix, One Month Only!

If my count it right, it appears twelve James Bond titles were added to Netflix last Monday the 1st and appear to be expiring on May 1st.

Dr. No (1962)

Dr. No is the first official James Bond film and introduced so many iconic Bond things, notably the gun barrel sequence.  The film itself should be watched by any Bond fan, as it is the original.  Critically, the movie didn't do that well, but general audiences loved it.  Definitely worth watching.  Expires on May 1st.

Goldfinger (1964)

Goldfinger is the third James Bond film, making it Sean Connery's third film as well.  This film introduced signature gadgets.  Oddjob also in this movie, the famous hat throwing henchman parodied in Austin Powers as Randomtask.  Also stars Pussy Galore!  Critically acclaimed, won an Academy Award, and was a massive financial success!  Expires on May 1st.

You Only Live Twice (1967)

You Only Live Twice is the fifth Bond film, so also the fifth Sean Connery film.  Loosely based on the novel of the same name, and it was the first Bond film to be released over the summer.  Austin Power's main nemesis, Dr. Evil, gets his inspiration from this film.  Expires on May 1st.
