This is the final nail in the coffin for James Bond. RIP 1962-2021.

>character and franchise named after him are known for snappy, quippy dialogue, fun, adventure, sex and for being the quintessential action hero franchise for men and boys
>who better to bring the character back to that than a guy known for pretentious Oscar-baiting fare with no soul in them who has gone on record saying he hates dialogue and only wants to make serious arthouse-y movies
what could go wrong?

Another humourless Bond, great. Even Craig's run had SOME good jokes in it but this is gonna be dry as sand.

>>212737956
Being a Bond fan is a nightmare. You wait FOREVER between movies and when you get them, they're awful crap and pozzed. Then it just gets worse and worse and worse.

>>212738158
Yeah, it's grim and I don't think there's ever gonna be a recovery from the depths we're in.
At least the new Bond game, aside from MI6 HQ looking like Africa, is looking pretty good. Actual humour and style.

This retard is supposedly working on
>a Cleopatra film
>the next Bond
>another DUNC
He's stretching himself pretty thin

>>212736606 (OP)
It wont be better than Casino Royale, but it will almost certainly be better than the other Craig Bond films, maybe not Skyfall, but only maybe

>>212739023
>muh Casino Royale and muh Skyfall
Every, and I do mean EVERY NPC who doesn't actually like or care for Bond as a character falls back to those two baby's Bond movies.
>>212738250
The game, despite being a pozzed piece of shit, is still better than Craig's whole era just on the fact that Bond looks like Bond again.

>>212739023
Skyfall is pretty 'modern' and fair bit drier than your old school Bond, so it would seems right up the Villenuve's alley, but it has something that the leaf never managed, namely, style. Villenuff has never managed to film anything that was even remotely 'cool,' certainly nothing that comes close to Skyfall.

>>212739200
>the fact that the day has come where someone even more pretentious and fucking soulless than Sam Mendes directs Bond
it really is true
it can ALWAYS get worse

>>212739140
>baby's Bond movies.
that would be the ye olde whacky quirky 60s Bonds that nobody aside from contrarian manchildren gives a fuck about

>>212739366
Nope. That's classic, hardcore Bond. The kind you, a Gen Z mutant, would never watch. Casino and Skyfall are tailored to your soulless taste.

facts about amazon bond
>broccoli confirmed the aaron taylor jew made up the whole rumor himself. he was never considered for bond
>amazon wants a young actor for bond. they don't want a granny fucker like aaron the jew
>bezos personally said he doesn't want "a fucking jew as bond"
>timothy dalton is still considered to be the greatest james bond

>>212739429
Only the last one is an actual fact. I hope you don't kill yourself when ATJ is cast.

BONC, James BONC

t. granny fucker

I will curse that Russian homosexual midget's name till the day he fucking dies.

>>212739508
>gets a super loyal and loving mature woman who raises his children properly instead of a dumb young slut who will ruin his life
he's based as all hell

>>212739140
I dunno, the look they've gone for is too soft for me. A bit too 'Disney Prince' which takes me out of this being a proper Bond game despite looking fun as fuck.

>>212739559
cool bro I'm sure he cares

>>212740104
I'm not your "bro", you Zoomer fuckwit. End your life in the most public way so your legacy can be that of people laughing at your pathetic existence's end.

>>212739676
After 15 years of Craig, him being tall, blue eyed, dark haired and having the scar is a blessing. I'll take it. If Bond is intact and untouched, I'll compromise and allow Indian bitch as M.

>>212739589
>film director starts dating him when he auditions for her movie when he's not even 18 yet
>marries him soon after
it was basically grooming, if the genders were reversed people would have some serious icks about this

>>212740276
>IT WAS LIKE BASICALLY LITERALLY UNIRONICALLY GROOMING AND LIKE THAT'S UNWHOLESOME AND LIKE PROBLEMATIC AND STUFF SISTERS
Men already into adulthood can't be groomed and certainly not by a woman. Get your head out of your fucking ass. Just because you're a beta male with the self-image of a woman doesn't mean other men are women-men like you.

>>212740143
you always this cringe or just trying really hard today?

>>212736606 (OP)
the final nail in the coffin of franchises is that they are franchises. enough of the concept of franchises already. but it won't b e the actual end of them all...

with dune villeneuve show he can be faithful to the spirit of a franchise so i guess he'll do the same with that one. he did that sciario movie so he can do intel shenanigans and action. but i am tired of the very ideas of seeing the same franchises, out of principle i want something new. when it all started , with rocky 2 friday the 13th 2 etc it was seen already as a bit of a joke... little did we knew...

>>212740431
i guess james bond was sort of an exception so it was ok. now its normalized. every other thing is a franchise.

>>212740407
OH NAW UNC BE CRINGE THAT'S CRAAAAAAAAAAAAZY BRO LIKE DEADASS SKULL EMOJI HOW BE LIKE THAT AND DO

>>212740504
cringe AND retarded, noted

>>212736712
The current character and franchise are not known for any of those things, thanks to the Craig era
Villeneuve is the most logical next step if you follow what they've been doing for years now
Craig. Craig and co ruined Bond. The fact that Casino Royale was so well received is what killed Bond

It's Villeneuve, so he will make good movies, but Bond fans will hate them because what they want is something other than good movies, just like with Casino Royale and Skyfall.

>>212740527
OH. MY. GOD. DID YOU JUST SAY THE R-WORD YOU NEED TO BE CANCELLED AND YOUR WHOLE FAMILY BE EXECUTED AND RAPED FOR BEING PROBLEMATIC ABLEIST CRINGE RIGHT WING UNIRONIC FASCISTS AND WE NEED TO MAKE VIDEO ESSAYS ABOUT HOW WE ALL LAUGHED IN A CIRCLE AS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY WERE BURNED TO THE CRISP BECAUSE YOU SAID THE R-WORD IS AN ABLEIST AGGRESSION TERM MEANT TO DEVALUE THE LIVES OF DISABLED PEOPLE AND QUEERX FOLKX YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT IF YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND SHE WILL BE FORCED TO COPOPULATE WITH PROUD BLACK MEN SO SHE CAN MAKE MORE BEAUTIFUL MULATTO BABIES THAT AREN'T HECKIN PROBLEMATIC LIKE YOU AND YOU WILL ALSO BE RAPED AND FEMINIZED AND TURNED INTO THE BRIGHT TRANS WOMAN YOU ALWAYS WERE SINCE YOUR ABLEIST RHETORIC ARE CLEARLY A RESORT OF INTERNALIZED TRANSPHOBIA BECAUSE THAT'S A BIG ICK FROM ME DAWG SISTER UNC I WILL ALSO HAVE YOUR FAMILY BE TURNED ITNO HECKIN HVALID TRANS WOMEN WHO THEN YOU WILL PLEASE SEXUALLY WHILE I WATCH AND THEN YOU WILL ALL BE SHOT TO DEATH

>>212740546
This. Why do people care about Bond in 2025? It's been 23 years since he was good and relevant. Move the fuck on already.

>>212736712
>>212740563
Don't worry, Broccoli will squash any of his creative input and ghost direct this movie

>>212740982
Broccoli sold her creative control

>>212740982
Broccoli is gone. It's Amy Pascal now. A man can't run Bond alone. He has to be chained to some geriatric cunt.

>ME NOIM'S BOND JEIMZ BOND OI YOU GOT A LOICENCE FOR THAT KILL

>>212736606 (OP)
No more Bond ?
