James Bond : Future of Bond franchise

Future of Bond franchise

My problem with the Craig movies was they became too fantastical as they went on (despite the lack of gadgets or campiness of previous movies). Casino Royale got it right with the contemporary fears of global terrorism background, but then the rest of the movies just became lame revenge plots that tried to make Bond’s personal life the focus, instead of the villains and the world backdrop.

The series needs to go back to the Cold War 2.0 theme. Die Another Day at least got it right by making the North Koreans the villains. We need a Bond film where the Russians are the baddies again, or Middle Eastern terrorists or some African warlord. Or a Chinese tech mogul. Or imagine a Bond film about some rogue American generals or politicians that Bond has to take out (e.g like Die Hard 2 or Shooter). But I feel film studios today are too chicken shit to make a movie about modern conflicts in case they piss off their overseas or domestic target audiences.

That's exactly what it is. This is why you will never seen China as the enemy in any movie from Hollywood.

Re: Future of Bond franchise

Agreed. No more Bond crying about some girl. It made him seem like a bitch.

Bisexual Bond (not full h*mo) and for god's sake no techno-babble hacking cyber warfare crap. Some more one-legged skiing wouldn't hurt, either.

Re: Future of Bond franchise

Who gives a fuck? The series died when Sean Connery left.



😺 Schrodinger's Cat walks into a bar, and doesn't. 🤨 Let's go, Brandon! 🤨 Try that in a small town.

Not a fan of Timothy Dalton?

Re: Future of Bond franchise

Hell no. Sean Connery IS (or was) James Bond. All the others are just lame actors playing James Bond.
