Not sure how we missed this but RIP stunt driver and coordinator Rémy Julienne who died on 21 January 2021. 90 isn't such a bad age but it was from COVID-19 :(

I miss the creative, exciting car stunts he added to so many well known movies.

Indeed a sad situation, rest in peace old stick. The current series could have used his creativity and immense talent but of course they don't deserve him.

The Walt Disney Company has a counterterrorism unit? Now I want to see this in a future Bond film. I'm imagining spies wearing mouse ears.Image

It all makes sense now! The Craig Bond has been working for Disney Intel all along, that's why it's been depicted as such a Mickey Mouse operation!

Think about it, M-I-6-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E

Come on old boy admit it,
You call me old boy? You do age discrimination to me? That is foul conduct. Why you bring up age in first place? I am not old man. I am of millennial generation and I am replying because I will not stand for insults or be called something I am not. You already accuse me of fraud and liar and now you insult with age discrimination. Shame on you! :evil:

Ok, I'm done! This is a giant leap too far, I knew this guy was trolling, but this is tantamount to a signed confession!
Why you jump to conclusions right away? This is internet, people all over the world read information, people coming from different backgrounds, different experience. Yet you expect right away every one must conform only to your standards and attack and accuse of fraud and lying. You are doing same decadent attitude of imperialists. Fact is fact. You call me old boy. Now you are trying to deny that.

For me, this is a statement of hope. The critical juncture is they must keep momentum now on how they reject old style of series. First step is reject any reference to original author Fleming. I have looked at some of his books and they are racist. I understand why Barbara Broccoli reject that legacy. They must keep style of current movies and go deeper so it reflects society of today.

S J, you want all references to Fleming's creation done away with? He wrote the books and it is HIS franchise. You sound like a cancel culture lunatic now......or......Nash reincarnated here to confound and be mischievous. Image

Yes, the original books are far from politically correct(I’m looking at YOU, Live And Let Die, among others) but Fleming erasure? Yeahno.

An interesting read, but a bit too "post modern" for me. The last line of the article:

"And while the “real” Bond might have been a lot of fun 50 years ago, not many of us want him back."

Says two things, Craig is not Fleming's Bond and this author doesn't know much about the fanbase.
