And forgot to add, if black people have to be held exempt from honest, rational criticism, then they aint equal. And if its because they cant handle said criticism emotionally, then they shouldnt be considered equal.
The “Lasahana” told me all I needed to know; another affirmative-action hire shoved down our throats.
The only question now is how much money will this film lose?
There was a suggestion back before Daniel Craig was cast to reboot the Bond series by going back to set the films in the late 1950s to mid sixties. I thought that was a great idea. Bond was a creation of the Cold War and doesnt really fit the modern age.
Mike Obama with backup from the daughters can sing the theme “all this for a d__n flag” with lots of anger and rage. It would be easy for them.
Yawn.
At least she has Dr. Who creds.
Dumb.
I thought Craig was great in Casino Royale. Also liked Skyfall.
The other recent ones have been tedious to me.
This one sounds like a total pass.
Female action heroes usually don’t work. There are occasional exceptions, like Sigourney Weaver in Alien and Linda Hamilton in Terminator.
But it’s basically a novelty.
Novelties wear off.
The Left is determined to destroy ever iconic character in literature and movies.
Definitely not beautiful or even attractive
Yeah we just need a woman hero. We need the Muslims to turn out to be the good guys and the American troops to be the bad guys. Perfect Hollywood formula.
“A movie thats a dead failure before its even filmed.”
Already filmed - or mostly filmed actually.
And easier on the eyes, too.
True. The Bond theme is awkward and worn out now.
It would almost seem that the Bond series could be revived if they adopted a “period piece” approach with everything out of the 50s and 60s. That means older cars, fashion, technology, real Soviets, sets. It could attract a whole new audience.
“I’d like an Appletini, please - shaken, not stirred.”
There is only one James Bond - the original - Sean Connery. This latest stunt is Dead On Arrival.
Ill pass.
Bond is a man.
Studios can never let wokeness be seen to destroy a movie, let alone a franchise, so they will pour in more money for sequels.
Several reasons. Developing characters from scratch is difficult. Most of the people trying to create these rainbow warrior characters aren't interested in the genre, (science fiction, super heroes, spy thrillers.) They're interested in virtue signaling. That means their characters are wooden, and spout the same SJW nonsense as the people who create them, and nobody wants to hear that.
In the original Fantastic Four, Ben Grimm, the Thing, was written as being Jewish. He didn't stand around shouting about being Jewish, it was just who he was.
OTOH, with the new Bond movie, this actress cannot be worse than Roger Moore. Moore was worse than Shemp. He was the Joe Besser of James Bonds.
Dr. Who lost me when the latest doctor is a “woke” female . Now Bond goes down the same road. Shame.
