That parody was in the first issue of MAD that I ever bought... I was eight years old.

I was hooked immediately and read MAD religiously for the next six or seven years. I didn't realize it till years later but their brand of humor was definitely a major influence on my own.  TeddyR

It's an odd coincidence that this topic comes up because I actually just read two very good books about MAD in the past few weeks... "Good Days and MAD" by long time contributor Dick De Bartolo and "MAD Art" by Mark Evanier.

The magazine also crossed my mind when I re-visited "Airport" (1970) last weekend, because if memory serves, when MAD parodied the movie Mort Drucker drew a cocktail glass in Dean Martin's hand in just about every panel of the story.  TeddyR

Have you read the novel?  It contains quite a few racist comments (dialogue as well as descriptive passages).  I suppose when it was written, it wasn't a big deal.  But it was sort of shocking to read by today's standards.

Have I read the novel? Yes. Actually, I think I've read all the James Bond novels, which Ian Fleming wrote. As for the novel itself, it 1st came out in 1954, but . . .?! Even some 20 years later or 1973, the controversy had not completely died down, as I can remember,  the mere idea of having a black man, as the villain, upset some people.

Here are some more facts about the films.

It was Roger Moore's 1st appearance as James Bond.

Clifton James' role as Sheriff J.W. Pepper was so popular with movie going audiences, that he reprised the same role in the next Bond film "The Man with the Golden Gun" in 1974.

And Geoffrey Holder, who played Baron Samedi, in the film, was prior to this, best known as the "Uncola Man" in a series of TV ads for 7-Up.

The inter-racial love scenes between Roger Moore and Gloria Hendry were censored in South Africa as they "transgressed the Immorality Act". Buggedout

I bought the complete boxed set of paperbacks a few years ago and read all of them.  I think most of them contain racially insensitive remarks, but Live and Let Die was the biggest offender.  There is one chapter that takes place in a nightclub (with predominantly black customers).  There is a passage that discusses something about the smell that is common among black people (or something like that).  I thought that was pretty insensitive, to say the least.
