This isn't actually a bit of trivia that is actually in a Bond film, but it is a Bond reference:

In the film "Joe Dirt", a character named Clem is referred to as "Gert B. Frobe", the actor who played the title character in "Goldfinger". The most amusing thing is that the actor who plays Clem is none other then Christopher Walken, AKA Max Zorin. Perhaps it was a nod proclaming that Frobe was his favorite actor to potray a Bond villian? :)

(I read somewhere though Robert Shaw was his favorite, though I'm not certain).

Dunno, it just struck me one day.

LOL, I might be wrong though, but I believe they are the same. :)

My sister and her boyfriend were watching "Joe Dirt" the other day and I heard that. Started laughing my :) off. My stepdad wanted me to explain it to him.
