In this particular case it might spice things up a bit, thirtieth movie in which he's still a white British dude on the other hand… isn't it getting a bit old?
I mean — they are making money! Even those who don't like the idea might watch it.
"They've made James Bond a black disabled lesbian, I bet it's bad! Let's go see this trash!"
and
"OMG, a new Bond movie!!! 🤩"
Which is more likely to happen?

@m0xee well I personally don't mind like just watching people get shot and things blowing up.

Going to see something just because it's bad used to be kind of fun until most everything started to suck lol.

now it's kind of routine.

Yeah, true! Relying on controversy as on the sole way of promotion has certainly lost its appeal and yet… It's James Bond — even the most diehard fans are probably too old for this shit 🤭
They have to put the character to good use — squeeze the last bit of juice out of him, otherwise even a movie based on original character like Beekeeper might yield better turnout 🤷

@m0xee Yeah good point.

Idk, I just got the blue ray box set so I own all of them now. I can go back and watch the old ones.

i try and buy up as much physical media as I can tho, I'm paranoid about streaming things and such.

@ins0mniak
I'm not such a big movie fan myself, but I have most of my favourite shows at least in digital form… When it comes to music — that I prefer to have on physical media when it's possible. I'm such not-a-fan of streaming that my phone has about 200 gigabytes of my own CD rips 😁
