I think people are putting way too much faith in this alliterate producer to change a many decades old formula for this franchise. It took a decade of arguing back and forth at the production company about whether to have a person of color be a recurring role. So, to change the sex of the lead would probably take two more decades of arguing.

broccolini only cares about $$$$$$$$, duh. lip service only when necessary to chill the masses
ReplyDeleteThis one's gonna be called Attendancefall.
ReplyDeleteThe only people who can keep an argument up for 2 decades are married couples and George Costanza from Seinfeld!
ReplyDeleteYou told us that Bond would NEVER have a POC as the lead while a Broccoli was involved, enty
ReplyDeleteGet lost racist.
ReplyDeleteWhy would James Bond be female? If we so desperately need a female lead superspy movie series, why not simply create one? I just don't get this incessant retconning(sp?) of long standing fictional characters.
ReplyDeleteWhy was The Chuck Norris never considered for the role? Does anyone have any info on this subject?
ReplyDeleteApart from that Aussie actor every James Bond has been a Brit. I think it's a class thing. I love Chuck Norris but he's just not posh enough
Delete@postaldog, the reasoning goes like this- James Bond can never be a female but 007 can be a female!
ReplyDeleteBecause feminism has to parasite upon succesful male role models and ruin them.
ReplyDeleteThey can't make a "woke" spy that people would actually pay to watch.
Idris Elba was THE missed opportunity for the perfect black Bond. Now they will eventually just end up doing it with some dumb Meh guy like Donald Glover.
ReplyDelete@Nonya: I think Enty was talking about Miss Moneypenny.
ReplyDeleteWhy does Bond have to be anything but how he was written? Rocky turned the franchise over to Apollo's son, ratherthan make Rocky over into some PC compromise. Do the same. Create another character within the franchise, or better yet, CREATE A WHOLE NEW WORLD instead of CO-OPTING an established character or franchise.
ReplyDeleteAfter I saw 300 I thought Gerard Butler might make a good Bond. He's probably too old now though. Idris Elba would have been a good one as well.
ReplyDeleteThis blind gives my fantasy hope...Idris Elba as a recurring bad guy!
ReplyDeleteOr stop making Bond movies. I won't miss them.
ReplyDeletePierce is older than my parents. Goldeneye? Damn, Pierce. lol Bring him back. Or, Henry. ;P
ReplyDeleteFeminists do NOT want t "copy" an anachronistic homage to misogyny. The poster boy of the patriarchy. No thankyew
ReplyDeleteOnly showing ignorance of what feminism/feminist means like most who attack it.

@Samantha the 1st
ReplyDeleteWhy would anyone dislike feminism?
"Feminists do NOT want t "copy" an anachronistic homage to misogyny. The poster boy of the patriarchy."
It sure is a mystery.
Samantha isn't bright.
ReplyDeleteWhy do they have to make a female James Bond movie? If they need to have a woman spy franchise make one Shoving women in movies that were already hits doesn't work. The female Ghostbuster's was awful. The remake of Overboard sucked Just come up with new movies and quit trying to redo everything with an all female cast just because its PC right now
ReplyDelete"muh Bond!"

It is not a mystery at all.
The only people who "dislike feminism" either are ignorant of history and what the word feminism/feminist really means; are self-hating; or are terrified of female power.
