Hey there, Stargate, James Bond and audio book fans!\"Click<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

On Sunday September, 23, 2012 we will be honored to interview a legend<\/a> in the entertainment and arctic worlds, Barry Campbell<\/a>, who is currently working on developing a series of audio books on various topics of interest that he will discuss during our exclusive interview this Sunday! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Most recently Barry Campbell<\/a> was featured at San Diego Comic-Con<\/a> in July 2012 supporting the fiftieth anniversary of the legendary MGM Studios James Bond franchise<\/a> bringing 007 back in Skyfall<\/a> to our scenes this November! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Barry, well known as a James Bond fan, was working at the FOX Video booth who has handled the 007 DVD video distribution for many years. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"ComicCon<\/a>At Comic-Con San Diego 2012<\/a>, Barry acted as a guide for visitors where “007” fans could purchase a photograph of themselves sitting in one or more of the famous James Bond vehicles (courtesy of the Ian Fleming Foundation<\/a>). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This included models of the legendary Astin Martin DB-5 first seen in the iconic 1964 film Goldfinger<\/a>! (real vehicle was not).

During my visit with Barry chatting about the fiftieth anniversary of James Bond, I noticed the Astin Martin DB-5 seemed to be the most popular choice for photo opportunity for enthusiasts as well as collectors who purchased thousands of miniature models of James Bonds first truly famous sports car. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And why not! The Astin Martin DB-5 became famous for the ejector seat, bullet proof shields, nose mounted machine guns, radio tracking device (we now call GPS), oil slick dispenser and other “high tech” devices that became standard fair for virtually all James Bond films that followed!
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

During our time at Comic-Con San Diego 2012<\/a>, we were fortunate to be able to chat with Barry Campbell<\/a> about all the cool James Bond<\/a> vehicles at the fan favorite event! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Barry graciously took time to do a shout-out (above) to long time friend and professional associate Patricia Stewart-Bertrand, who we all know on Twitter as our senior producer, ArcticGoddess1<\/a>! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Stargate<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As any good Stargate<\/a> fan knows, Barry was primarily responsible for arranging the special arctic sequences in Stargate Continuum<\/a>! Barry’s biography on IMDB eloquently describes his outstanding contribution as follows:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“As the former Head of Operations for the U.S. Navy’s Arctic Submarine Laboratory headquartered in San Diego, California and a big fan of Stargate SG-1, Barry met Stargate Executive Producer N. John Smith at a convention in Vancouver in the spring of 2005 and began discussions to facilitate filming at a 2007 temporary ice camp in the Arctic Ocean for which he was the Officer in Charge.”<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

“After two years of negations, planning, and preparations Executive Producer N. John Smith, Director Martin Wood, actors Richard Dean Anderson, Amanda Tapping, Ben Browder and a skeleton crew spent one week at remote ice camp APLIS filming scenes for Stargate: Continuum. Stargate SG-1 creator and Continuum writer Brad Wright gave Barry a small speaking role in the movie as a “thank you” for his efforts in bringing about this remarkable filming opportunity.”<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

We are therefore pleased to announce Barry Campbell as our next guest host this Sunday September 23, 2012 5 PM PST, 8 PM EST when Barry will discuss Stargate, James Bond and his latest endeavor, Audio Books!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
