I imagine she's lovely so long as she doesn't bite down

What I think they will do is a compete reboot set in the 1960s. It gets around the problematic ending of the recent film, allows them some leeway with his older attitudes to women and also avoids modern technology that can completely kill the plot (such as mobile phones). It also sets it apart from similar more modern films like John Wick and Bourne.

You'd have my interest if it was done right. Bring back old cars, old school mentality, hot bond women. Yes please.

There's the theory and mentioned in a few books that James Bond is a codename used by a series of agents. So even though DC Bond died, we could still get another one.

Loved CR, but the rest weren't Bond, just rehashes of Jason Bourne type spy, parkour and aggressive fighting. Bring back, quips, hot women, villains lair and gadgets and cars :)

A lot of people dunked on the last film and I get it, I found Lashanna Lynch particularly irritating that he character was written as singularly fixated on the 007 title - but I will say that given how selfish the character can be I thought it was consistent that the only person he would actually lay down his life for was his daughter. It was a beautiful ending, I thought.

There's aspects of it I love (the opening sequence is great, really harks back to classic bond), but the ending after his death, which repeats the start car sequence, but with Seydoux and girl just grates with the no care in the world whilst "We have all the time in the world" plays, a complete contrast to when that was used at the end of On Her Majesty's Secret Service when it's used with Bond cradling his dead wife in his arms. Maybe the message really is, Bond is just better off dead for the women in his life.

I suppose essentially that's the core problem with the film when you have it being written by a panel obssessed with identity politics instead of telling a good story. It also highlights perfectly the reason why you should never give actors too much power on set.

James Bond Hopeful James Norton Says Men Should Atone For “Patriarchal Crimes Of The Past”

James Norton, who is among the actors linked to James Bond, says men should be "proactive" when confronting the MeToo movement.

Ah yes. Just what will inspire me to watch the next bond film. an entitled *** please stop with the partially starred out swearing, if you must swear, fully star out the words *** with an opinion on the patriarchy. Honestly, why does no one tell actors to not voice their opinions?
