[Reel Rap Crossover] From Russia With Love with Reel Rap

It's the crossover event of the century! Book-to-film adaptation freaks Shane and Bennett from the Reel Rap podcast join Sean and Alon for a triple header of mediums.

Book... Movie... Game...

M... Q... EA...

Bond... James Bond...

That's right, we're talking about Ian Fleming's 1957 novel, its 1963 film adaptation, and *its* 2005 game adaptation: *From Russia With Love*.
