Moonraker

The massive success of the Star Wars franchise saw James Bond try to capitalise on the audience by taking the next chapter into space. For Your Eyes Only was supposed to be next in the series, but the popularity of those science fiction (space-based) films saw the decision made to make Moonraker.
The 11th film in the series sees Bond investigate the theft of a space shuttle, which is stolen from atop of a plane in the opening scenes. His investigation leads him to meet Hugo Drax (Michael Lonsdale) of Drax Enterprises, the (stolen) space shuttle's manufacturing firm.
Bond meets Dr Holly Goodhead (Lois Chiles) who is working on the project, but is later revealed to be a CIA agent. Their travels lead them from California to Venice (the scene of a great chase), and on to South America.
Drax's evil plan sees him seek to wipe out the entire world's population and start over with what he terms "perfect specimens".
Our friend Jaws returns from The Spy Who Loved Me, and features in one of the more daring, and entertaining, fights on a cable car. He plays a more important role in this film, and the audience may get to hear him utter words by the time the credits roll.
A great film, and it continues on from The Spy Who Loved Me in the way that the film is specifically designed to meet Roger Moore's version of Bond. It was an issue with his first two Bond films (Live and Let Die and Man With the Golden Gun), but he makes it his own in this film.
