James Bond fans have heaped praise on writer Phoebe Waller-Bridge for championing women's empowerment after the first full trailer for the latest installment was released on Wednesday.

The new promotional clip sent viewers into meltdown as lead actress Lashana Lynch was unveiled as fierce agent Nomi - rumoured to be the first female 007 - alongside James Bond actor Daniel Craig, his love Madeleine (Lea Seydoux) and his aid Paloma, played by Ana de Armas.

And with the theme of feminism present in the film, excited social media users lauded Fleabag's Phoebe, 34, for bringing female characters to the forefront of the iconic franchise.

I doubt many of the Social Justice Warriors (SJWs) heaping praise on Work Bond are fans of the Bond franchise. Considering the poor box office for Work Feminist takes on "Ghostbusters", "Terminator" and "Charlie's Angels" 99% of the SJWs won't bother buying a ticket.

So no more “pussy galore” nicknames? Effing stupid. Women on Bond films need to be fantasized by men and not this empowerment sh*t.

Right. How many fans are bots, I wonder.

Most of them I’d bet.

The Bond franchise was played out over a decade ago. Like the comic book movies, it became just a live action cartoon.

The left really doesn't care. Anything that downgrades the quality of life for anyone who is not a liberal or socialist is fine by them. Of course, none of this applies to DEM politicians and so-called leftist leaders.

I find it weird how Daily Fail is ultraSJW about feminism but relatively rightwing about other things.

It’s a bullshit story and bullshit headline meant to gin up support and interest for femanazi’s and legitimize the “women can do anything better than men, but not transwoman” movement. In short the producer and studio are trying to save their skin from a big flop.
