Every great series gets ruined or eventually runs it's course. Couldn't they have just created a new one rather than ruin 007?
One crappy movie won't ruin 007. If Timothy Dalton didn't ruin the franchise nothing will.

Considering the social climate are you really surprised? Look at what they did to Star Wars...It's just a sign of the times and I'm sure she'll be lesbian as well..
Nope she/he will be trans. Gays are becoming too mainstream. Gotta find something more of a minority.

Obviously she's not Bond. Perhaps I misspoke. I think the point is the new 007 will be a woman, and I'm not thrilled. I suppose they could have 007 spinoff movies, which would be fine, but it looks like the next 007 movie won't include Bond. I like the Bond movies, especially the last few. There are typically several years between each movie. Let's say the next 007 movie comes out in 2022 or 2023. That means we might not see another Bond movie until 2024 0r 2025. In the scheme of things it's a small matter. It just caught my eye, which rolled alongside the other.

Well then I guess I'm just rolling my eyes at your eye-roll. I see it as just continuing to breathe fresh air into the franchise, like they've always done.

Well then I'm rolling my eyes at your eye-roll of my eye-roll ... and wincing at your stinky breath.

I have lost interest in all of this stuff. It is correct, the former 007 is retired and the number is assigned to a new person. I find the political correctness quite boring. We now have to have women that beat the crap out of men, even multiple men at the same time, and then we have to have multi racial heroes along with having all the difference gender identifications.

This is not to say women aren't tough and strong, I fought some in karate that could knock me on my butt if I wasn't paying attention. But seriously, this has gone sooooo far left. Don't get me started about sports broadcasters.
Social Fiction. Social reality is the fact that when Army plays Navy in football, you will never see either side take a chance on playing a female defensive lineman or left tackle or anything, simply to be applauded by the politically correct crowd. It is too important an event for each team for social fantasy.
