Are you ready for Jane Bond?

[longbow]

Looks like the Bond series is taking a turn. They are focus grouping the idea in LA.

If she's minority and gay then they can cover all the politically correct bases.

 

[ModernGunner]

So, that ends the more than half-century run of the world's most iconic British Agent?

 

[oldpink]

It can't be any more preposterous than "G.I. Jane" was.

The first adventure will be staring Bruce Jenner, as Jane.

 

[Mr Evilwrench]

Um, no.

I'm glad I can watch the movies I want in the comfort of my home, the rest of the world can change without me.

I agree.

Um, no.

Right there with you, I've been lucky enough to carve out a small square peg world to live in. When I'm gone it will either disappear or be placed in a museum.

I have no problem with a female spy hero. I have a problem with the role of James Bond being converted to a female.

A female James Bond? Ed Miliband wants to kill popular entertainment - Telegraph

 

[Trigger Time]

I like my Bond girls on their backs.

 

[SmileDocHill]

So, who will the "Bond boys" be?

In a serious note, I did like the wfyi mini series on Ean Fleming.

Exactly. If they want to make a movie about a gritty, rough-around-the-edges woman in the old west, I would probably enjoy it. Just don't call her Rosy Cogburn. Same thing with the Bond franchise.

Edit: Just went back and read the article. The Brits do have a way with words, lol. "White guilt-riddled manginas that would like nothing more than to neuter every Alpha male in popular entertainment." Lol

So what exactly are people complaining about? Because a movie role has been amended to appeal to a certain segment of the population? Who cares? Just don't watch it.

Exactly what demographic do you suppose they're trying to appeal to? The demo of chicks into action movies is pretty thin at best, so you'll have most women rushing out not to watch it, and most likely flush the franchise for most men as well. People in general not watching it. Not a good business decision, when you have an established money maker, even as expensive as those movies are to make. I'd go even odds it would fail so hard at the box office it would be the last Bond film ever. What's wrong with leaving something alone, anyway?
