and I'm trying unsuccessfully to upload a picture of Frank Gorshin in that Star Trek episode when he's half black and half white, if Teddy Eagle or some other kindly poster could oblige that would be nice as I can't do it on my phone

Wasn’t he the riddler?

He was but how a manic nutcase in a green suit with black question marks all over it could remain inconspicuous was never explained.

The citizens of Metropolis and Gotham City were remarkably unobservant - neither Commissioner Gordon or Chief O'Hara ever noticed how Batman and Robin appeared minutes after Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson left the room.

James Bond villains have always heard of him and his august reputation.


actually, the whole James Bond franchise has also gone a bit Marmite. Sillier and sillier plots and now with the added death-touch of Woke. The Villains don't even beat their girlfriends anymore. Nor does Bond.

Bond never locked horns with Islamists nor the IRA......a bit ridiculous when you think about it. It was always an autistic fruitcake living inside a volcano with deadly tropical fish.

007 might be going the way of Top of the Pops & Doctor Who. I reckon they should re-invigorate the brand with a total T0sser in the title role and a likeable villain......maybe mr kicker Andrew Tate as Bond and Johnny Vegas as the villain ?

if the AI could bring back Peter Cushing in Star Wars, surely we can bring back Stockwell's finest..... Roger Moore - my favourite Marmite fecker, he got off the bar stool & put away the 20 Marlborough to beat up a dozen heavyweight kung fu masters.

Precisely why I liked both Casino Royale (2006 official version) and Quantum of Solace as much as I did: the villains, the worlds in which they operated and their motivations were genuinely credible in the modern era. One reason for the shift in emphasis was no doubt the success of the Jason Bourne movies.

It’s going to interesting to see if the new franchise simply ignores the fact that they’ve actually killed bond off, but I think you’re right, the next bond will be black/gay/female or all of the above and definitely be heading the way of doctor who

Sir Roger will be turning in his grave god rest his legendary soul 😎

The smart move would be to reset at the time of the books which is 1950's into the early sixties. It also then gets around the Manosphere problem as Bond's attitude to women was the standard male gaze at the time.

That would be the smart move, however it's Hollyweird.

A valid point. Bond villains are rich bad capitalists. Johnathan Pryce played a version of Rupert Murdoch so don't be surprised to see a copy of Elon Musk or Donald Trump.

The Daniel Craig era was a reset wasn’t it? Supposedly from when bond first became a 00 in casino royale

I thought they might have had the black girl who got the 007 tag in the last film, but as it’s a whole new franchise now and they’re starting afresh that won’t happen

Bond 2.0 "just when you thought he was dead..."

Maybe they'll make Bond like Kenny in South Park and kill him off in every film.

somebody mentioned Jason Bourne. I cannot imagine him doing a Connery and lecturing feckers on the difference between a Bordeau and a Claret.

I was thinking the first spectre bad guy will be Craig's clone. But maybe I'm much better at story lines than the writers. He'll actually probably take on the far right or climate change, or somehow both. Probably run by a politician in the US who likes golf. Bond's assistants will all be diverse, female, homosexual or a mixture of all, whilst all the bad guys will be older white guys in suits, with cats and elaborate plans that don't stand up to any scrutiny.
The last Bond was a game of tag. Oh, you touched me, now I drop dead. Didn't we used to do that in the playground?

Or Bond will be driving his Tesla round Africa checking up on his family's slavery fortune while wearing a MAGA hat where he teams up with some heroic Mossad agents to battle an army of vegan trans climate enthusiasts.

Either way, sounds boring. Nothing beats playing Bacharach and making sarcastic remarks about good wine years. That relates to just about anyone. We all speak that language.

Jason Bourne was obviously the James Bond USA style. Instead of fancy pants white suits, he guns everyone down and the answers fall into his lap. He works out his identity through multiple choice questions and when he gets it wrong, what are a few other gun deaths. No big deal.

He also manages to travel around the world causing mayhem in major cities with every moment being followed via satellite and CCTV without being detected. All he needs to do is walk faster and look over his shoulder every now and again.
