Its not particularly important or worth thinking about too deeply. As with all James Bond films, even the greatest ones, they’re just silly movies in the grand scheme of things. It’s predictably bound to get very good reviews from woke reviewers though regardless of how good or shit it turns out to be. The BBC will hail it and tell us this is a landmark moment in our cultural history, which it won’t be because the vast majority are against the powerful progressives and their politicisation of everything. The tail can only wag the dog for so long.

I suppose you could say Indiana Jones was the original Lara Croft and after Lara Croft you had National Treasure with Nic Cage. I'm surprised they kept the 'Men' in the new MIB though...only a matter of time before it's rebooted as 'Persons of Undetermined Gender in Neutral Coloured Attire' 😉

Make a different series of films. There is a place for black female etc espionage or action films. James Bond is a white man and he always had the moniker 007. Passing the moniker over is the first step in changing James Bond to a non white man. It’s not Bond Denzil Washington could make Robert Macall his own in the same way you couldn’t take him as a James Bond

It all depends what happens after I guess. Bond retiring and his number passing on makes sense but it all depends on how they close it out after that.
Personally I think if they wanted to shake up the franchise they should set the next one back at the height of the Cold War with From Russia With Love vibes....(which is the best "tradtional" Bond by a mile).

My imagination is going to places it shouldn't be doing while I'm here at work! What are you insinuating? And just what proof do you have? I'm innocent, I tell you. And any pictures have been photoshopped. I deny everything.
Apart from the wheelchair bit. Last time I was in one, I was accomplice to smuggling one or two items through customs. Like booze, knives and explosives. I was 13 years old coming back from a school skiing trip with a broken leg and most of the stuff I was smuggling was given to me to get through customs by my teachers ...

All good things come to an end.
The fact that people feel so threatened that they need to replace traditional male roles in films is sad to me.
Bond is what he is, making him a woman will not erase the history of what he has always been. It will just end the franchise for me just as they have with Dr Who and Star wars.
I watched the remake film of Man From Uncle last night and thought they did an excellent job on all three main characters although I never want to see Armie Hammer in a short skirt playing the role of seductress. Alicia Vikander crated a character that in my oppinion NO MAN could ever reproduce with charm, flirtation, cold heartedness that only a woman posseses. The same level of strong characteristics are just a true for the character of BOND its just not politically correct to say it.
There is no bastion of our society that is safe from the people who do thing to PROVE A POINT.
All my oppinion of course and if you disagree then you have a perfecrt right to.

Shaft for instance is a black man, James Bond a white man, Mary Poppins a woman with an umbrella. Why do they have to mess with any of them? As someone says, create a new one. We have film like Salt etc , why does James Bond have to change? If they mess with Henry's Cat I'm not paying my license fee

If they mess with Henry's Cat I'm not paying my license fee It might just be me but isn't it just a case that Bond was actually a British male at the time of the movies starting in the 1950s and they were predominately white at the time now obviously britain is much is much more diverse so I don't see the problem in a non white actor playing the role, personally think it should have been Idris Elba but hey as long as they keep bond's love of the ladies as part of the script it might be worth a butchers with a female lead

Shame Gary Coleman not with us for Shaft 2 Andrew Lincoln would be a good Bond

Black panther and captain marvel in the superhero genre notable successes Bond would also be nearly 100 from starting in 1953, the stories are set in the modern day now so having a different colour actor is not that big a deal for me, the main characteristic of bond is his britishness, he has always been played by a white actor but his race is not really part of the character, I am assuming that wont change Bond is not going to start calling Q fam or putting grime music on. Just dont have ed fucking sheeran doing the theme song and its all good.

Fucking wank idea and the film will quite rightly be a disaster.
Bond has been the same for decades, it’s just how Bond films are.
I fucking hate the world honestly it’s a piece of absolute dogshit, this pandering to the offended minority will be the destruction of normal, civilised society.
It’s like casting Samuel L Jackson as Cinderella.
