Officially the end of an era as Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli have stepped away from the Bond franchise, giving control over to Amazon/MGM. This is catastrophic IMO. The franchise will go the way of Star Wars which is straight downhill. Legacy will be changed or "updated" to fit the current times. Heck, I wouldn't even be surprised to see some censorship on some films due to their "problematic themes" that don't fit with today's times. Spinoffs will ensue, Bond may become American, a woman, trans, or whoever Amazon feels like virtue signaling now. All I know for sure is the quality is massively going to diminish. Truly a sad day for cinema and anyone else who's a fan of the franchise. cry

Amazon MGM gains creative control of the James Bond franchise; the Broccoli family are stepping back

Never been a big Bond fan, but I totally understand your concerns

But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way
Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away

Money talks let's hope they still respect and honor Ian Flemming's vision of 007 !

They won't, trust me. They wanted to do spinoffs as soon as they obtained the property and Wilson/Broccoli had to pump the brakes for them.

It will now be Bond and all his "Woke" friends...

They'll "plug in" identity politics into it all.

Exactly. It'll go the way of Star Wars, down hill. And then they'll scratch their heads and wonder why the audience isn't "into it".

Same here, haven't really liked it much and definitely didn't after A View to a Kill. Gets worse and worse and I don't even watch the new ones anymore.

And like your pic showed, that's definitely going to happen now. There will be woke and gays somewhere, guaran-fuckin-teed!
