The next James Bond?

Started by riv66728 pages

I like that they’ve taken the chance in this upcoming movie, to touch on things that have been the subject of conversation for years now.
A female Bond?
A black Bond?
A female black Bond?
Lets see what that might look like.
While it smacks of ‘poking the bear’, i think it’ll be done well.
The Craig tenure has been pretty much the best of the franchise (and i watched my first Bond in 1975); i expect it to go out w. a bang.

I demand a trans female disabled black actor with vitiligo.

On a serious note, meh. It's cool to pass the 007 torch instead of trying to just do a female bond. Lets see what she can do with it.

Stop demeaning Black people by pandering to them with this useless shits.

You’ll hardly never find any educated Blacks that accepts such a useless pandering. Treat us with damn respect, we’re not stupid nor morons.

Instead of asking to turn a white character Black, why not create a brand new one? Is that so damn ****ing hard?

Also, James Bond has always been white. Broccoli wrote him as such. Hell, Broccoli even went back and turn him half Scottish because of Connery’s acting skills. So pretending you can turn a white character that’s been white for near 25 years is ****ing stupid.

People that wants Bond Black, or female, can **** themselves.

Spoiler:
Well they aren't making her bond. She is becoming the new 007, Bond is passing the torch to her. She is getting his code name.

It's still pandering though lol.

Could have put a spoiler warning with this.

I will, but they are literally announcing this in the open.

EDIT: Maybe edit your post to take my quote out if possible.

2nd edit: heh, backfire also spoiled it on the previous page.

^ Too late, but I get your point.

Although its not an official announcement, its a scoop by the Daily Mail.

As a huge fan of James Bond, I am sad to see the franchise go this way, they could have made another movie with a female 00# and connected it to the Bond-verse, while still keeping James Bond.

They fcking killed it

Nah. It will be fun to see her come in and just be better then James in Every Possible Way. Probably can even take a pee better while standing up then him too.

HOORAY FOR WOKE!

She can’t be code name 007, only one person at a time can carry said title and rank.

I will laugh if she isn't using 007 or become the new bond...

At some point a non binary 007 will be introduced.

Yep agreed. James Bond is 007, and I know he supposedly passing the codename of "007" to Captain Marvel's friend, but even the "007/James Bond is a codename" fan theory got debunked by Skyfall. Yes, this is different, but the point is that James Bond IS 007. The James Bond 007 franchise is a franchise about one spy that Ian Fleming created. It does not need to be made into a "00-universe" or whatever the producers are trying to do to emulate the MCU yet again.

Good grief, women of many ethnicities have been represented in just the spy/adventure genre: Tomb Raider, Salt, the Mission: Impossible series, Colombiana, and Atomic Blonde spring to mind. Shoot, the James Bond series has had Wai Lin, Vesper Lynd, Triple X, Olga Kurylenko's character in Quantum of Solace, Judi Dench's M, plenty of strong female counterparts to Bond. Not to mention how lukewarm if not poorly received gender-bended films in franchises have been so far, from Ocean's 8 to Ghostbusters.

This makes zero sense from a storytelling standpoint. Bond is 007. Leave it alone.

Great idea. I would like to see that.

You know what’s funny and sad at the same time? This just proves Hollywood doesn’t believe a woman can create and a carry a new franchise by themselves, so they have to steal something a man created and that’s being portrayed by a man for last 20+ years to have a shot at anything.

Worse yet, women fails to se this. Same with Minorities.

Denis Villeneuve to direct the next Bond film

^ LoL, unhinged sensitive weirdo.

Anyhow, glad for the director's pick, now they need to cast a decent actor.

Does this mean that Denis will largely be tasked with choosing the next Bond? That could be cool.
