I think it is time for the Bond franchise to think more along the lines of going into a team Bond territory.

What do you all think of that? Has the solo bond thing become outdated or a lil stale yet? Couldn't Bond go further in entertainment via a team route?

Then that team could consist of a white male character, a black male character, a white female character, and a black female character. This would technically make even more people want to see this movie franchise.

The initial title to the team bond route could be along the lines of "Bond: Foursome."

If they got Matt Damon (the star of the Bourne franchise) to star as the white male character of a team Bond, tickets would sell out, due to the fact he is damn good in the Bourne series, which does have this realistic edge over solo Bond movies! Team Bond would be more realistic though, since in real life usually spies work as apart of teams.

I remember when they had Bale, who was the star of Nolan's big hitting Batman trilogy, as the star of a Terminator. It made people really want to see that Terminator (4th installment, correct?), due to Bale being the star character in it.

So I know Matt Damon would cause the same effect on people, if he ever landed a future Bond role, and especially of a Bond more realistic due to teamwork.

But just my two cents.

Casino Royale grossed 600 million
Quantum of Solace grossed 586 million
Skyfall grossed 1.1 billion
Spectre grossed 890 million

I think the franchise is doing pretty well as is.

No Asians??? they spy too you know.

Maybe they should do this like The Usual Suspects approach (each member has unique abilities like clever bomb making, awesome sniping, a specialist,tech guru like hacking or making forced entry gadgets, etc.)

Sounds like a really awful idea. Congratulations! You just got promoted to executive producer.

They could have Leslie Jones star as someone who self-identifies as James Bond.
