Hot take but James Bond is absolutely 100% the whitest mf on planet earth
What, the personification of British imperial chauvinism? That Bond?
Crazy I know
i'm still on team womanizing lesbian who behaves exactly like Connery and is still called James.
Openly Transmasc James Bond, just to kick at the new UK healthcare policies.
I would like to see a femcel bond
I want them to canonically either explain the difference between the Bonds, or definitively say that they're all supposed to be the same person.
Hell, give us another 006 named Alec Travelyan played by another actor who's famous for dying in everything s/he's in.
Honestly with becoming a "fucking commie" this stuff is all "cop movie" to me now. Like I don't hate on people enjoying it, it is art/fictional but it is too close to reality for me and glazes this fucked up system. How did one youtuber put it with "Hero" Movies? Defenders of the status quo. And if you are aware of the huge pile of corpses this status quo produces every year it kind of spoils any fun.
So yeah, I'd be happy for poc for some representation but this stuff sucks imo. It is like a black president, I get that you would want one but it won't change what's underneath will it.
what would that even be about at this point? how Bond has to infiltrate the Palestine Action and go on a tea date with some elderly pensioners?
they would never, but you could simply depict the government as evil and have the climax being he refuses to start a false flag riot.
Bond is exactly the sort of fucker who would execute a false flag
depends if he wants to bang one of the protest organizers
How can the script already have been leaked?
I mean... yeah? I'm sorry, I don't get the idea that Bond needs to be a poc, he's an anthromorphification of the British imperialist id. I suppose at this point a lot of the people maintaining empire are brown, but that's not a victory.
Like I get the thing that a lot of poc want to see themselves reflected in the cultural symbols of their country, but he's a symbol for people who thought shooting poc, stealing their shit and feeling snooty about it was a thing that was great and doing less of that (Or even just doing it less overtly) was a great loss.
I think gujarati bond would work perfectly fine non? black one less so, but indian can work, they’ve had local compradors for centuries at that point
Sure, fuck James Bond, but also the clear choice for a POC 007 is Aaron Pierre.
Jack lowden, the guy from Slow Horses? Idk if he could play suave.
Yeah that'd be weird, he'd be playing River in Slow Horses, and the guy that River thinks he is at the same time lol
Gary Oldman would be a pretty good Bond
Now I have to look for a fanfic where James bond and Jackson lamb interacf
Which one of these terrible characters who is contractually obligated to never lose comes out on top. It's like when Vin Diesel and The Rock fight!
While they're bickering and arguing the villain manages to steal all of the King's swans or something
