Talk:List of James Bond parodies and spin-offs

Untitled
I suggest a more rigid classification of the parodies. Maybe something like: Imitations (those that are obvious copycats of Bond), Spoofs, Reference (something in a novel, tv, movie, etc. that are obvious reference to James Bond). A lot of the entries here have too light of a relationship with James Bond to even be considered. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ppsantos (talk • contribs) 21:09, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Nice page - but I must say, although it's impossible to deny the influence of James Bond in all of these films, not all of them are really "James Bond parodies" per se. james gibbon 18:20, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * For instance? Do be wary that the section at the bottom are "imitations", which perhaps shouldn't be listed here. K1Bond007 20:13, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)

Could the Casino Royale movie with David Niven, Peter Sellers and Woody Allen be considered a parody? John Barleycorn 05:41, July 28, 2005 (UTC)
 * I just noticed it was missing a few minutes ago :) I added it. It's definitely a parody or spoof. I think the reason why it wasn't listed is because this page is essentially a break off of James Bond where Casino Royale was listed seperately since in addition to being a parody is also considered an "Unofficial film" since it was made with the actual film rights to the Fleming novel.

Artemis Fowl
In the second Artemis Fowl book there is a chapter called "To Russia with gloves" is this a parody of the Bond film "To russia with love"?

Removed films
In reorganizing the films section chronologically, I removed several examples that are either dubious (a porn film reference, a redlinked animated film), or irrevelant (Connery playing a former agent in The Rock). There are probably others that can and should be trimmed, such as The Goonies, but I'll let others make that call. 23skidoo (talk) 18:38, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Goldfincher
A long time ago (in the 60's) I read a short parody called Goldfincher. It had been published in a birdwatching magazine and was supposedly about the real James Bond (the author of Birds of the West Indies and the source of the name) In the story he was a spy operating under cover of birdwatching. Does anyone know more about this?

Recent additions
, Do you have any sources to back up that your recent additions are actually Bond parodies? If not then they can be removed for being Eurospy films of the same date, which is a different thing altogether. - SchroCat (talk) 07:48, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

Get Smart
It seems like Mel Brooks' Get Smart is a clear James Bond parody, with the all of the gadgets and the SMERSH-like organization KAOS. Liz Read! Talk! 15:16, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Article currently says "... Get Smart (1965-70) featured Don Adams as the consummate Bond spoof...", which covers this. But I would actually argue that Man From U.N.C.L.E. is an (affectionate) Bond semi-serious take-off, then Get Smart is a Man From U.N.C.L.E. full-on spoof and the (later-mentioned) Inspector Gadget is a direct derivative of Get Smart.
 * As such, I have trouble calling any but The Man From U.N.C.L.E. an actual full-fat James Bond parody/spin-off, although there's a clear straight through-continuity of influence in many of the elements (SMERSH -> WASP/THRUSH -> KAOS -> MAD) and maybe some skip-polination of ideas in others (Blofeld/etc -> ??? -> Siegfried-> Doctor Claw) as well as other influences (Inspector Clouseau -> Maxwell Smart). But that's just my two-pennorth, not a fully-researched standpoint... 213.205.252.104 (talk) 23:50, 30 October 2015 (UTC)

Television
I am thinking of several 60's era TV series that featured episodes spoofing the spy genre in general, and often Bond in particular. Fred Flinstone and Barney Rubble faced off against, I believe, a Dr. Yes. Gilligan's Island had a fantasy episode where Gilligan was a spy. Mr. Ed went up against spies a few times. All of Secret Squirrel was a Bond parody. The Monkees certainly did a Bond spoof -- I can't think of a specific episode but I think almost every 60s sitcom did a Bond spoof at one time.

 * The 1966-67 series cartoon Cool McCool is a pretty direct Bond parody. He's suave and impeccably groomed, his boss is "Number 1," and he receives cool new gadgets to outfight (inept) supervillains.Arnold Rothstein1921 (talk) 23:59, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

One comedy record
This is the only record I know about that spoofs James Bond, but in 1965, there was a record by Marty Brill and Larry Foster called "James Blonde: Secret Agent 006.95, marked down from 007; "The Man From T.A.N.T.E.." I actually own two copies of the LP. But either way, I'm not sure how we can fit on this list. -User:DanTD (talk)  12:32, 21 July 2018 (UTC)

Suggestion to add Sobble and Inteleon (Pokémon)
In the video games Pokémon Sword and Shield, the Pokémon Sobble has the Pokédex number 007. It evolves into Inteleon, the Secret Agent Pokémon, whose signature attack is shooting water from its finger in a manner similar to a sniper rifle.
