People will pee themselves in rage over James Bond becoming a woman... except this is just the designation 007 going to the replacement agent. Craig is getting long in the tooth and is ready to hang up his Walther PPK.

He will ride into the sunset and in a year or so they will cast a new James Bond, something they have some experience doing, and start all over again.


We already know who the new Bond is. It's not a "woke" choice by any means.

Nah I’m good. They already ruined bond with the moody brooding version. This is just the final mail in the coffin

All the Hollywood studios are tripping over themselves to ruin their franchises with this woke crap. Also, why does diversity automatically mean black? What about Hispanics? What about Asians? They are unseen and unheard.

No one loves the smell of their own farts more than Hollywood. She’s doing literally nothing at all to help anyone. But she believes she’s changing the world by making some shitty Bond movie no one cares about.

She’s not doing anything revolutionary. She’s not helping a community or donating her money or time, or building anything of worth, or anything.




She (thinks she’s) helping to destroy western (read: white) civilization. That’s noble to her.

Sorry. I hadn't realized that the Tom Hardy rumors were premature, which is apparently the case. Based on how widely that was reported by the trades, expect someone who looks like Tom Hardy.

So, we’re going to take a franchise that specializes in delivering a product of cool dude, tits and arse, and what happens when you mix the two with...

None of that?

Ok. I’m out.

I'm tired of this "woe is me" Bond that we've been getting since the beginning of Quantum of Solace.

I grew up on the campy bond movies and still prefer them. The newer films don’t have that charm. They try too hard to be gritty and moody and pensive and lack what I really loved about the old movies. Even the gadgets are less interesting to me.

Here's what's going to happen. Bond is retired so she becomes the 007. Bond comes back out of retirement and works with the 007 at the end Bond retires again and the Craig movies end. Few years later we get a new set of Bond films probably staring someone like Taron Egerton or an unknow
its so predicable

The gritty and moody thing worked in Casino Royale because it was fresh and because Bond was still a complete alpha bad arse.

A Bond with no confidence and bravado is absolutely pathetic and that's what they've done to him over the past few films.

The allure of James Bond has always been that he's the ultimate man. Intelligent, confident, strong, skilled, respected, etc. He gets to do exciting, adventurous things in exotic places. He bangs a gazillion hot bitches left and right, etc. He drinks, he smokes, he gambles, etc. He's what every man wants to be and the man every woman wants.

But we live in a world where actual masculinity has been deemed toxic, so it should be no surprise that James Bond isn't long for this world.

Except he doesn't or didn't own the franchise, so what he wants or wanted is irrelevant.

You need to take it up with Ian Fleming's estate.

My guess is, that as long as Bond is generating a vast amount of revenue for the estate, why in the world would anyone stop that?

You wouldn't if it was you.
