Bond 25 may have female agent taking over 007 number

Just more politically correct BS (from the left) with changing the sex/race of Bond. if that happens... the James Bond series is completely dead. it would be unwise for them to cater to all of the political BS lately and keeps James Bond as James Bond.

but personally I don't take those articles claims too seriously as changing Bond from white to black is bad enough but to change from male to female would be that much further off-the-rails. they are better off starting something new and leave 007 to James Bond otherwise they are simply taking things too far. or maybe have them start a spin off character tied to the James Bond world etc as then they could have a non-white lead and possibly even change to female etc. but you still want to keep the core James Bond movies going every few years or so.

bottom line... you just don't screw with a established series like James Bond as the character must be white and be male (this really goes without saying). any variation of that is just more politically correct BS from the left pushing their diversity BS for the sake of being diverse than it actually being of benefit/value.

But I would not take those people seriously.

James Bond is too big of a character to screw with. let those who whine about it whine, I could not care less as you just don't screw with a iconic character like James Bond.

Also:
www.imdb.com/title/tt0081447 (and note--not a big studio film--Cleopatra Jones WAS a Warner Bros film)


The fact is that the media owners see film as a message delivery system and agitprop material. This is their sole motivation.
They are not thinking about new audiences or increasing revenues.
It is strictly political.
The name 007 is what matters here--they are sending the message that anyone can assume James Bond's role.
That's the agitprop message.

Personally I only want to see Bond as 007.

Probably because black people are the least represented race in film.

Asians have Asian cinema and Indians have Bollywood etc.

And it all goes back to slavery in the U.S.

Yes, all minorities have been very poorly treated in the past but none as widely known as black history in this country.

Then there are the Native Americans, but everyone likes to pretend that never happened.

I said in film. 

I was just taking a guess at the reason btw. I wasn't stating facts.

The difference I think is that Middle Eastern people and Southeast Asian people aren't as big a part of U.S. history, as far as I'm aware. I really think the main reason goes back to black history in the U.S.

It also doesn't seem like Latinos and the other minorities care as much about representation in Hollywood movies. 

Oh, I agree with that if we are only taking Hollywood movies into account.

At the same time though it makes sense that the focus would go to the people who shout the loudest, ie. feminists and black people.


In Hollywood movies black people are the second most represented after white people, but I was taking all movies into account, which is why I brought up Asian cinema and Bollywood. Worldwide they have a lot of representation, with thousands of movies with casts consisting of entirely Asian and Indian casts.

Yeah, I get that.

I try to look at things from every angle though.

MI6 should retire his number.   They do it in sports all the time.
