No Time to Die 007 - Time to Go Broke

It sounds like Bond is a side character in his own movie, first of all. Since the franchise is built around him, that seems like the first, and fatal, mistake.
The second, of course, is having a stronk woman of color have and keep the 007 number all movie, stripping Bond of that iconic moniker. (Though he'd been in 'retirement' or 'rogue' before he always returned to it by movie's end.)
The third big issue is the deviation too far from the formula of high espionage pseudo-fantasy. Bond is always best with over-the-top exotic locations, women, and villains with grandiose plans - this more 'realistic' version manages to be simultaneously grounded while impossible to believe. Why try so hard to ape Bourne when you already can work so well with your established brand and formula?

Finally, we come to the big SJW lie they always spew to puff themselves up. ThIS wIlL bE tHe FiRsT sTrOnK POC wOmAn!!!!! When Bond movies have have several powerful, amazing and sexy women in them.
Like Grace Jones in A View to Kill
Or Michelle Yeoh in Tomorrow Never Dies
GW259H400


These fuckers are so pathetic that they either don't know its already been done or they just ignore it so they can jerk themselves raw about their 'accomplishments'.
Hang em' high and let them swing, I say - but the box office returns oughta gut them for us.

What's worse is the new black Bond is hideous. How is she a secret agent when she's a remarkable ugly woman who is built like a man? She'll stand out wherever she goes, she has no spy potential whatsoever. What is she going to infiltrate? She will be useless at wooing men or women. Where in the world would anyone put trust in that? Not many places, that's for sure. It doesn't make sense.
 
The thing with Lashana Lynch is that she looks more like a cop type of character instead of a secret agent à la Bond. And she would have worked fine if she was a partner for Bond for a mission or whatever, but if you want her to go undercover in fancy places, she's gonna stick out like a sore thumb and her cover will be blown in a matter of minutes.

Someone like Grace Jones is athletic as fuck and could reasonably pass relatively unnoticed in an upper class assembly without getting too many suspicions. Or hell, Thandie Newton would have worked better. She looks the part, she fills the representation quota, she looks like she can kick ass, and she can easily fit into a high class setting without attracting notice.

Woah careful there buddy. You'd want a cute black girl in a movie? That's racist.
 
I like that the trailer doesn't appear to give away the whole plot, although one thing I did notice is that Rami Malek's character seems to have something weird going on with his face. This, coupled with Bond's "history isn't kind to men who play God" line makes me wonder if the plot will revolve around genetic engineering or biological weapons of some kind. If true, I think it might actually be an interesting device for a Bond film to revolve around.
 
Sad to see Craig's run end with a wet fart.



Man, what's the point of that? Ana de Armas is hot as fuck, she'd be a perfect sexy Bond girl.

Not counting this movie Craig has played Bond four times and only one movie (Skyfall) has been good. His entire run as Bond has been fairly mediocre and unmemorable.

Not that Newton hasn't already done her share of woke nonsense. Westworld, while a great show overall, is filled with anti-male, "progressive" bullshit.
 
Honestly, the Craig movies cept for Casino Royale were never "Bond" movies. They're generic action hero flicks. While I like Craig and most of his movies, he has none of the suave-ness or charm of Bond. You can look back at Sean Connery, George Lazenby, hell even Roger Moore, and those were some charming motherfuckers. Daniel Craig has none of that, he's just a meat head.

And the biggest reason this is his last one according to him is that his body can't take it anymore.
