Oh good grief. Let's corporatize and managerialize one of the greatest franchise's ever. What could possibly go wrong.
Amazon buys these “franchises” only to turn them into cringy woke garbage that nobody watches. In Rings of Power, Gandalf spent two whole seasons looking for a stick. What was the point of it?
I was watching different productoins of “A Stretcar Names Desire”
No one is ever gonna touch Brando.
But in most of the college or off broaday productions...Staneley Kowalski, or however you spell it, is black.
I never knew there were so many black Polish people :)
At least the other roles where the white guy was replaced, his name wasn’t so very obviously non black.
Now they want James Bond to be black or a woman.
I’d choose black before a woman.
I’d choose a straight white guy above all of them
Bond’s dead. 007, though, could be reassigned, and I understand there are some unemployed dwarf actors in Hollywood that Snow Woke wouldn’t hire...
All this pessimism is misplaced. Amazon did a wonderful job with “Tolkien.” I’m sure they encouraged a whole new generation of readers.

I always look forward to Bond movies and will look forward to what is next.
White,straight,male and from the UK.
Amazon hates Lord of the Rings, Disney the same with Indiana Jones and Star Wars, Snow White etc. and Paramount hates Star Trek.
BILLIONS in losses and yet they still make lousy versions of the originals.
Bond is NOT introspective examining his own thoughts and feelings.
He just says: “That’s a Smith & Wesson and you’ve had your six.”

I noticed that too many leading men are gym rats and they do not look tough. Just pretty. Also stop killing off original characters.
Daniel Craig and the lady “M” always were pouting or pursing their lips.
Craig has stated he does not like guns and he said he frequent gay bars. His last 2 movies he played a gay man.
He wore clothes too tight. Dress Bond in nice clothes and not shrink wrap him.
Have a great story and good pacing and not frantic and sound not too loud and filmed in technicolor and not washed out colors to be moody.
Great music makes a picture as well.
One more thing... hire actors who at least like the movie!!
