If Babs Broccoli and Stepson Mikey Wilson want to have a Bond movie, then they need to remove any association with Ian Fleming. We are kept being lied to, well they have not lied to me because I never believed them, when they claim that their movies are rooted in the tradition of Fleming.

Bond never worked for MI6 in the novels because, despite what the fanboys say, Bond worked for the Ministry of Defence and MI6 is part of the Foreign Office, not MoD.

Babs and Mikey are little more than grave robbers who are constantly watering down the series with bad movie after bad movie. Casino Royale is only good because it came after “Die Another Day” and before “Quantum of Solace”.

James Bond is just a Franchise name like McDonalds or KFC s ,over the year the films have evolved to suit the era started with Roger Moore and the lets jump on the Star Wars fad hence Moonraker.
Casino Royale is the Bond version of Bourne and thats what the audience wants.If it’s a Bond movie it will be entertaining the majority of people who see Bond movies are the 20 somethings they have no idea who Ian Fleming or that their are books and probably could care less..
I dont know if this i true a few months back it 100th year of Titanic sinking twitter was covered in comments that film only came out a few years ago is this a typo..
