I'm surprised he's so big.

I just got around to Remington Steele in the dumpster-diving of Bond actors' outputs.

What if... Scooby Doo was seasoned with a little Thomas Crown Affair and a touch of early Mystery Box (Blacklist in particular)? The first three episodes have been exceptionally watchable, and while it's more housewife-oriented than anticipated, it's very pleasantly campy and the writing is tight. Brosnan's mannerisms are in full display too.

It really does have that hack quality of mistaken identity devices, or dying people gasping out a vague clue as they croak that hits the spot if you are into mystery schlock.
 
Is he wearing high heels in that picture or is Patrick Gibson 5' 8"?
Gibson is 5’10” which is how tall Craig is apparently. Calvin does look like he should be like 5’6”, I completely agree with his own statement.


As for the game? Guys, I don’t mean to be a shill but…It’s pretty awesome. Like…I’m really glad it’s as good as it is. There are so many awesome Easter eggs for Bond fans, all the females in this game pretty much throw themselves at Bond, he’s quippy and funny. All the browns hate him and underestimate him.

It’s not woke, not at all.
 
Patric Gibson did a great job as Bond in first light.
The right amount of smartassness and coldness.
Quick on his feet’s and shit
 
I know they are recasting this role and I dread the outcome.

Please don't let them pick a nigger or a Troon, or a jeet.

I'm a huge fan of Remington Steele as bond, as he was basically playing himself.
They really should just take the sign that going with a white dude is always going to be the way forward with how the video game has been very successful in the sales department and reviews (though that is starting to take a hit as more people notice its "game journalist" level of difficulty even on the supposedly hardest difficulty).

They'll do like they did with this supposedly based game and leave Bond white while surrounding him with blacks and Indians who are infinitely wiser.
 
The window of time where they may cast a non-white surely has to be all but closed by now.

While we still see people online reacting to lists of potential actors virtue signally, "yes, Aaron Pierre seems like a good choice." There is no way the executives don't know the shit storm casting someone like him would create. I've even had friends I wouldn't expect send me Helen of Troy memes about The Odyssey.

If they did cast a non-white, the only logical conclusion is 100% proof of cultural destruction at work. With the state of the box office and the risk of restarting the Bond franchise. There's no logical, reasonable or sensible decision to be made by deciding to cast the character as a different race.

All the “wiser” blacks and Indians except M doubt and hate Bond and quite literally admit they’re wrong about him.
Meanwhile, his fellow agents that are blond and blue eyed become his friends and love him. The women? They all want him Imto fuck them. Be they major or minor characters. He smashes one bitch almost immediately after arriving at Universal Imports.
 
A Moneypenny show sound horrible.
her scenes in Skyfall was there to show that she is not field agent material (which her character acknowledge) so what can they do with her?
Make it a workplace comedy show or what?
>M arrives at the MI6 office to the cheers of the studio office.
Moneypenny.
>Moneypenny is loudly chewing gum while talking on the phone.
Yeah?
M: Where's Bond?
MP: I 'unno...
*laugh track.*
M: He's not back yet?
>cutaway gag showing Moneypenny shooting Bond "accidentally" with a .50 cal.
MP: ...no?
*laugh track.*

The backlash of Idris Elba rumored to be the next Bond was so strong that Amazon is paralyzed from moving forward with anything besides this game. If the response was anything other than universally negative, we’d have some Aziz Ansari-looking fucker being Bond currently.

Patrick Gibson would be a fine Bond but having a white male protagonist is too much for Bezos’s bozos.
 
I have never seen why people wanted Idris. He was fine in The Office but that's an Office manager. He was good in that Hijack show, but he was so god damn bland in The Dark Tower. Even if I were indifferent to the cultural eraser, I don't see him as a Bond or a Bond type. I've never seen that Luther show, so that may be why but everything I have seen him in never made me think Bond.

I'll preface this by being perturbed by Daniel Craig's casting, but then I watched Layer Cake and was like, "Ok I get it."
