I'd care more if they were doing this to anything other than dead franchises like Dr. Who and Bond, which should have been put out to pasture years ago.

They should have given it up after they ran out of Ian Fleming novels frankly.

You can blame Hollywood and the entertainment industry in general for running out of ideas and not allowing new ones to be given a chance.
What do we have left? What? MCU? That it?
 
Just another salvo in the culture war to erase all white Europeans from their own history, art, and media. By briefly putting a black women in the movie they hope to soften the beachhead for the inevitable replacement of Bond with a black dude, retroactively. No character, historic or fictional, is allowed to be white or, Allah forbid, Christian in this modern hellscape that cries out for war.

Well you are correct about how it's meant to soften people up to Bond being black.
 
This is not woke enough.

It needs to continue the tradition of Bond hooking up with new strange in every movie. Don't hold back there. Give Cleopatra Jones a giant hog. Have her girldick slap Scarlett Johansson clean across fifty feet of living space.

A wheelchair is also mandatory. Arm it with high-tech gadgets. "This looks like an ordinary catheter bag. But when you puncture it with this pin..."

Weirdly I'd be okay if it were a black dude. Cast Will Smith.

Ha ha, ah ah, unh, unh, what, what?
JB & M, bringin' it in, unh.
Ah ah, license to kill, 2-oh's for real.
Shakin' it up.
Woo!

EDIT. Taking a look at the actual article here...

British actress Lashana Lynch, 31, will be introduced as the new 007 in what is being described as a “popcorn-dropping moment” in the franchise’s 25th movie that is currently being filmed, according to the Mail on Sunday.

But it is not a complete do-over — with her just taking James Bond’s secret agent number after he retires from MI6, the report states.

Bond himself will still be played by Daniel Craig — and will still adhere to his old-fashioned macho characteristics, an insider told the UK paper.

So it sounds like an ambitious reboot where they're phasing out white Bond for a less problematic lead, like Miles Morales replacing Peter Parker.

Also, it's not really a "popcorn-dropping moment" if you've already told everyone about Janesha Berry.

By the way, I'm pretty sure the chick who wrote this into the script, Phoebe Waller-Bridge (hyphenated of course), is the same broad that did the voice of that annoying fembot in "Solo".

Just in case you were thinking that the intentions here were anything approaching honorable.
 
Honestly, though, there is one way they could make a black female Bond work. Teleport Grace Jones from the ‘80s. She actually could pull it off successfully without giving a fuck about being woke.

In a non clown world a black female bond could work if the writing & the actress are excellent and her skin color doesn't define her.

But we live in 🤡🌍 so it's going to be a awful

I'm hoping this will be another Ghostbusters trashfire.

You know, the one that ultimately ended with Sony rushing Ghostbusters 3 out and desperately sucking the cock of the fandom they spent the entire time insulting with Fembusters' marketing?

I ain't even mad I just love seeing clueless Boomer execs pandering to self loathing rich shits on Twitter backfiring and those execs proceeding to shit themselves in a panic.

What i take is that Craig is still going to be there but for some reason his 00 number is going to be taken by Lashana, probably he is going to do something stupid in one mission and was stripped of his rank just to give her the number, mind you in the movies there are 00 female agents but they dont get the spotlight, you can see one of them in the world is not enough, dont know about the books

But if the woke crew want a empowering woman that do stuff like James bond and for now no one care about her franchise you can always resurrect this

cant be worse than the last one... James bond should be strange and fun and not boring spy stuff....
baltic madman trying to nuke gold....

It was a commercial success...only because it was before Endgame. Not really much of an accomplishment except in scamming the audience. If it was at any other time the film would have made way less because it's word of mouth was so meh. But people had to see it because "It's supposed to be important to the plot of Endgame".

I was more or less talking about the movie itself though. Because everyone predicted it was going to be a generic boring movie with a feminist bent, and it exactly was.

Dude I hate to tell you this but I was out with my sister this weekend and Captain Carol merch was flying off the shelf.

I'm talking shit like T-shirts,coloring books etc.

I mean you can say Captain Carol benefited from super hero fatigue not setting in yet and the Marvel brand still being strong but this narrative people keep trying to sell where people hate her but forced themselves to set through her movie because of Endgame are false.

Seriously dude you are starting to come off as a scorned ex-lover with this shit.

Meh you are being overly dramatic, this is nothing more than a shitty modern media trend like how everything in the 90s had to be "Dark,Edgy and XXXTREME!" or it was "outdated" and "lame" to nihilistic Gen Xers.

None of these companies are actually "woke" Disney and Warner Bros are whores for Chinese cock as seen in their edits of Star Wars and Justice League to remove the black heroes because China hates Darkies.

This is pointless pandering to win brownie points from self loathing wine cooler chugging Millennials on Twitter.

As the 2020s roll in and Zoomers enter adulthood and replace Millennials as the shiny new demograph these execs will drop woke shit to pander to them.

I'm sorry but you are gonna have to provide evidence it's flying off the shelf. Seems a bit like you're just bullshitting to get a reaction. If you can provide it I will believe it. But I am not hearing it being a massive success because we would know if it was.

But you are dead wrong about the last part. A lot of the people I know were very meh on the movie and admitted they only saw it because they had to before Endgame. Like, her movie somehow made more than Spiderman Homecoming. What was the difference with those two?

One was a standalone movie with somewhat light content with no major connections to any avenger movies coming up...

The other was a standalone that WAS supposedly attached to a major Avengers movie which was coming out a month afterwards...

Sorry. I don't believe you. I didn't see the level of hype Black Panther had either.
