James Bond is a white British man who travels to exotic locations in foreign countries where he sleeps with all the most beautiful women and breaks the law with complete impunity because he has a license to kill from the British government which supersedes all foreign laws.
He unapologetically protects the interests of Britain against communists and third-worldists with grievances against the West. He is a reactionary figure created in a reactionary era. That is what the fans of these movies like about them.
And, for that reason, creatives with values opposite those Bond have historically represented want to take control of this franchise and transform it into something diametrically opposite to what it used to be.
They hate Bond and they hate Bond fans, so they want to make this franchise theirs. They want to take this suave avatar of the colonizer and colonize him, to turn the white man who fights the communists into a black or brown man who fights for migrant communities.
If they’re allowed to do this, it will destroy the most valuable property Amazon acquired in its $8.5 billion purchase of MGM, because this, like every previous woke transformation of a previously bankable property, will alienate existing fans and fail to attract new ones.
Baron Noir being 25/1 for the Supreme is bonkers to me.
I know El Cairos is a different animal and all the talk says hell hose up despite the fall.
Baron Noir beat him cosily LTO
@WestHamPlace Biggest load of bollocks.
Always had, Neil Parker or Nolan to hold his hand when he broke into the team and became a mainstay.
He has deserted us and sides with those reptilian cunts. We know where his breads buttered. He needs fucking off. Mr West Ham. What a joke.

Fortunate enough to have played because we were shit and as soon as one player came along who was miles ahead, he was moved on
A player with accolades beyond his ability because he was born in Canning Town
@five2oneplease@RacingTV@LydiaHislop@paddypower@harryskelton89 I think as it was a designated hurdle race with very little hurdling, punters would be entitled to ask the question of why it was mainly a flat race.
I think take the value now, go e/w.
