007 has become a tired cliche and an exercise in computer generated destruction. Baaaarf!
You may be right. Maybe that character has done all he ever needs to do. Double-O had a very good run, but everything goes out of style eventually.
Even Johnny Depp doing his Pirate act is over. He’s being substituted for another actor next film.
I never understood the appeal with Depp as a Pirate anyway.
Maybe the public’s definition of Pirate was redefined.
Johnny’s most popular film characters seem creepy and suspicious to me. Same act, but in different costumes.
I always hoped they'd go back to a cold war Bond set in the 50's once they'd exhausted the basic formula. But a womanizing, hard-drinking, hard-smoking Bond does not fit into today's PC times. Time to put 007 out to pasture with all the other relics of ages past.
