Moonraker


Moonraker.....

This is the eleventh in the James Bond series, and the fourth to star Roger Moore. As credits ended
on The Spy Who Loved Me the filmmakers made a promise to their eager audience, "James Bond will return in For Yours Eyes Only." Only a few months later, however, Producer "Cubby" Broccoli
announced that the next 007 film would be based on another book entirely : MOONRAKER.
This time JAWS was back, the giant, unbeatable henchman caught on with moviegoers, Jaws` new
boss, and new adversary, is Hugo Drax, an international tycoon who plans to destroy the human race
from outerspace, then re-populate it with his own perfect specimens. James Bond travels from Venice
to Rio and Space itself in his effort to save the world.
