The Chinese are super racist, turning Bond black would make matters much worse.

Just use a good actor and write good stories. Doesnt matter black or white. Craig is a good actor and they generally wrote good stories (quantum of solace a notable exception). Brosnan was a bad actor and he received bad writing.
Note to writers: James Bond at its core is not an action genre. It is character- Bond and girl and villain .

Here's an idea. Shove your forced diversity ideas up your a*s and write your own novel with your black agent. Don't mess with other people's creations because they're not yours to begin with.

That is EXACTLY what it is. You have no good reason to make Bond black,other than you think a modern Bond should be black.

Hey I know, let's remake Gone With The Wind, but let's modernize it and make Rhett Butler black.

Better still, let remake Roots, and reverse the races of everyone.

No not really, It was in regards to the time and threats to freedom that are relevant to the Cold War vs today. You, on the otherhand, decided to cherry pick the part you didn't like, i.e. the fact that I suggested the actor be black. I know it's difficult to understand when you are projecting your insecurities so much but try to see that, I had no thoughts of it being about 'diversity'

That's a pretty dim idea, Gone with the wind? Can't your feeble mind come up with a better example than something to do with the civil war?

Desmond Llewelyn was brilliant, the relationship he formed with each of the Bonds was unique in its own way

Explain to me why you can't make an entirely different franchise about a black man as a secret agent dealing with the countries you mention.

You picked James Bond because you want to make some bullshite political statement.

Next thing you know, you will want a Ghostbuster's remake with an all female cast.

I blame the SJW for this shite, can't we all enjoy a movie made with good acting? So much strife over crap.

No, you made those assumptions because you are afraid for your future place in the world. You don't like the direction of the world because it makes you feel small. It's ok, you'll be fine. Probably.

I don't see the problem with making an entirely different franchise. I didn't say everyone in the movie was a different color to satisfy diversitt quota. It makes no difference what color Bond is, as others have said. The point was in regards to who the threats in the world are now compared to then. Black was an example because there are a few Englishmen that people would know who could play the part and play it well.

frickin hell, you complain about SJWs making it about color and you are here spouting off about it being about color. People on both sides of this issue are overreacting. Can't stand SJWs because they are limiting free speech. Can't stand people like you because it's an all or nothing thing.
