They should do the same thing with Ghost Busters!
And sadly, they did.
I like all the people in this thread nominating actors NOT from the Commonwealth.
What is a Commonwealth actor?
An actor from the British Commonwealth. There has never been, and likely never will be, an American Bond.
Huh. That’s upsetting. I’m trying to decide on whether or not to continue using the term “commonwealth”, going forward. I thought it was just a term for “everybody owns”, not a literal name for “British or British owned”.
Lower case commonwealth absolutely does mean that, but upper case Commonwealth generally refers to the territories that Britain owned.
You mean like The United States Of America?
I want a Canadian James Bond. “Hey dere ho dere Blofeld, ya frickin hoser.”
The US is not considered part of the Commonwealth as it was not a territory when the Commonwealth was officially formed.
It’s gotta be Diane Morgan.
I didn’t know who Diane Morgan was. Turns out I DO know who Diane Morgan is. I’m on board as long as she plays Bond exactly like Philomena Cunk.
Exactly. It shouldn’t be Diane Morgan as James Bond, it should be Diane Morgan as Philomena Cunk as James Bond.
I would watch the fuck out of that movie.
Legit A+ take
I haven’t been to the theaters in a decade or more, but I would show up to see Tig Notaro as Bond.
Fuck yeah im in
Naw, she should cycle through all of the accents of the previous bonds.
I was thinking Phoebe Waller-Bridge. she’s already associated with the franchise as a writer, and works with Amazon as a producer, and a lot of her work involves problematic queer women. didn’t see the new Indiana Jones she was in, so idk how she is as an action actor, but if she’s half decent I think she could pull it off
I see Brandi Carlile in this role for some reason.
The actress that plays Judy Gemstone.
or… just Judy Gemstone?
“The name’s Bond. Judy Bond. I have regular woman panties where the string goes up my crack. I have tits. I do sex. I’m carvin’ my own path.”
And you just left me leaving a snail trail at this poker table seat. Sup boy?
I was confused. Then I realised I was thinking of Leslie Nielsen.
Guys. We should get Leslie Nielsen to play James Bond.
He did. It’s a pretty fun movie.
No, I mean not a parody. I want him to be the next james bond.
If it weren’t for the fact that he wasn’t British, he could’ve been the first James Bond. He was only a couple years older than Sean Connery, and was a well-known dramatic actor at the time Dr. No came out.
Sorry to break it to you, but he’s dead.
I see a challenge to rise Leslie Nielsen from the dead.
And loving it.
If Star Trek can have a Black queen (does she make captain? Im only on season 2) named Michael, we can have a female Bond.
I vote to have Sonequa Martin-Green play Bond, both for maximum trolling and because she could do a good job at the role.
Or if she can’t manage the English (Scottish?) accent, cast her as Felix Leiter.
Dude ill watch her do A N Y T H I N G
She can step on me as long as we dont tell my wife. Same for Tammy Newsome. Idgaf
Omg imagine both… ill be back
Spoiler
She does.
Thats what I thought, thanks
Spoiler
But it does take her over 900 years to achieve that rank.

So what you’re saying is…🎵it was along road to get from there to here🎵?
You may want to know thats not how to do spoiler tags on Lemmy BTW edit: this may be client side for me using Jerboa idk after further searching it appears you should be right
Does Jerboa need the space between the

or this:

Man thats a real good question cause none of these tags b workin
Check again. The formatting was a little wonky when I checked in Lemmy UI, so I fixed it. Closest thing to Jerboa i can test right now.
[off topic?]
Why can’t we have a big budget Modesty Blaise movie?
Sad, I was hoping for hot bond-boys.
Genderswap Felix Leiter as well and have her annoy Bond because she can get men even faster than Bond can get women
Yesssssss!
¿Por qué no los dos?
As a somewhat straight white guy, I’d be totally down to watch a female bond end up with a polycule of a golden-retriever himbo and a cute, standoffish at first, scientist/plot relevant expert.
I vote Alicia Vikander
Ana de Armas please
This is fire. Support Women’s Wrongs, not just their Rights
Reading your comment gave me whiplash from the cultural difference of James Bond and a trendy word with 12 year olds from 5 years ago. Every generation will have words that are popular and a few of those are fine, anyone using the word “fire” like you have is absolutely not one of those, especially now when you couldn’t even blame it on trying to be trendy. It was always an excruciatingly “I’m 9 years old and trying to sound cool” word and you should feel really fucking ashamed for not realising that.
5 years is plenty of time for language to spread to other groups. Every in my millennial group accepts this as standard parlance.
Don’t be a square. Neologisms are cool/rad/sick/lit/fire.
Or should we stick to only using the shibb that the previous generation thought was ““cringe”” to borrow your own use of a neolog there.
Ahahahahahaha. Why do i reply to you? I’m sorry your vocabulary is so limited. Have you read anything on a printed page like ever?
Every generation says this about the next generation’s slang. The world has moved on from you, you should accept that.
“Fire” is kind of a dated millennial term by this point anyway. Gen Z would be calling this “Bondpilled” or some shit lmfao
Femmebond is sigma pilled? can someone put an LLM to good use and make me a gen z translator
There’s the thing, the moment you do understand it, it will be something different.
This is by design, you just have to accept it.
Radical dude!
Far out!
You are 11 days old, calm down
The only appropriate response to this lmao
This chud is crashing out ;)
This is not a fire take. Straight up. Big L lil bro.
Give Sandra Bullock a Bond movie, you fucking cowards.
Isn’t she too old at this point?
Ten years ago Sandra Bullock would have been apex Bond, but I think she’s still got it.
Roger Moore was 57 in his last film. She’s only 4 years older than that.
only 4 years older than that.
It’s 61. It’s a lot. Especially for a physically active role.
She’s 61, oldest Bond was 57.
I wanted to argue that, but yeah, she’s 61 and Roger Moore was 57 when he did his last one. So, perhaps, yeah. But not by a lot.
And not from the Commonwealth.
Think of what Q could do with menstrual products.
Detonate a maxi pad. Floatation tampon. Garrote tampon. Chloroform pads.
Think, what Bond would be capable of in the state of the red rage!
For a second I thought you meant Satr Trek Q, and was very concerned.
I mean, Q could do those things if so inclined.
Flotation tampon? You’re thinking too small. Explosive. Maybe shooty. Definitely some kind of bang. Tampon could be a mini bazooka with all the latest tech in a mini-missile.
It is essential that these be kept separate from regular tampons.
With that said, grappling hook?
It is essential that these be kept separate from regular tampons.
Haha. Nice comment to start my morning with, thanks. :D
Not essential for Bond though.
They have to be able to fool the henchwomen of their enemies, so like the cigarette-gun, it needs to be in a box with regulars so it doesn’t get taken away from Bond by the Villain and they can then use it for something cool, after which they make a bad pun.
“Guess it was your time of the month”
Sooooo, Atomic Blonde?
I love that movie so much!
Yes.
The stairwell fight was awesome.
Legit one of my favorite action movies. Charlize and Sofia were so fucking good in this movie.
This looks like a job for a jacked, alt Aussie.
Marilyn Manson, is that you?
Count the ribs.
The Rib area looks particularly strange in the photo.
Awooga indeed.
Who TF is that and likes lobsters so much?
sibling, those are scorpions on her abs.
Pinchy bugs.
Rhea Ripley. Def has the athleticism and swagger for fem badass lesbian chauvinist Bond.
Soooo many lesbians I know are devastated that she’s straight and married. 🤣
Honestly, I would love some femcel entertainment.
