The phrase Bond girl was outlawed from the set, the source said. The women in this film are all strong, brave and fiercely independent. These women are not helpless girls who jump into bed with Bond their reactions are very different from what people might think. Bond tries his usual seduction techniques but they fail miserably. Its very funny.


Every other bond girl literally tries to the kill him, it seems that they don't watch a lot of these movies.

Im 99% sure his wife is going to be killed.

other than that i probably wont complain. Wont be the first time Bond movies have tried to deconstruct the womanizing playboy characterization.

And tbh most of the Bond girls since Brosnan have been pretty decent characters.

Except they did that one girl hella dirty early on in SPECTRE.

They changed "Bond Girl" to "Bond Women" years ago. It's silly, but it is what it is.

I hate to say it, but when it comes to being overly cautious or working overly hard to make up for past treatment of women, the 007 series has more to make up for than any mainstream series. Bond slapping a woman on the ass and dismissing her with the line, "Man talk." Bond asking why Chinese women taste different from other women. Tiger Tanaka telling Bond that, in Japan, men always come first.

Oh, and then there is that time he forced himself on a lesbian and turned her heterosexual. Can't forget that one.

It's not. James Bond has always been a franchise that chases movie trends.

Like there's literally a space movie in the franchise.

Yeah usually the people who remake these kinds of things have 0 idea what the things actually are and just are like "we're doing things differently!"
"Do you know how they were originally?"
"No."

Anyway good luck making your bond movie while alienating it's main demographic, I'm sure it will go well.

Pretty sure James Bond has never had sex with any Bond girl. They are either trying to kill him or someone he has to rescue that already has a boyfriend/husband to return to.

found the user who's never seen a bond movie

anyway the comment that the bond movies chase popular trends is pretty spot-on. the last few bond films were very bad, so there's not much of an audience left to 'alienate'

shame, too, because daniel craig played the role of bond really well...the plot of the films was just bad.

What I don't get about this is, from what I have seen (purely antecodal I know) older women seem to like James Bond more than anyone else.

Like they already have a large female audience.

Who are they trying to appeal to with this?

James Bond hasn't been James Bond since the reboot. He's just British action man now.

They just keep stripping the series of what made it work to make it into something else.

I remember when QoS came out people were saying Bond is more like a hitman than a spy.

Which, honestly, is fine. I think Brosnan was the very best example of what a James Bond ought to be but Timothy Dalton's Bond kind of played up the harder edge of the character and Craig's is like the descendant of that.

He's supposed to be more spy than assassin, but it's true he is both.

Timothy Dalton is my favorite. He was able to do the harder edged Bond with him still being James Bond. Even License To Kill, which was Bond going on his own in a typical 80's action movie way, still felt like a James Bond movie featuring The character of James Bond.

These new movies don't have that charm to them the old ones have and now they're just trying to deconstruct everything that makes Bond...Bond.

Imagine having a wife who's like "Nuh-uh, ain't doing it, my last name is MINE."

Personally I'd propose a merger of our surnames to create a new surname but on balance I probably wouldn't even get to the point of marriage with someone so obstinate that they won't share a last name with me.

I am so sick of this crwp. How often are a mans advances made into a joke, unrealistic, overly awkward, and always fail in most media? This gag is up there with prison rape, moronic deadbeat father trope and to a lesser extent guys unable to have fun without woman gag.

I don't even remember the last time I've seen a movie that just played out a normal courtship process from start to finish.

He just had that swagger about the way he carried himself. Rugged-yet-classy. Connery's Bond was close but he still carried that air of "Scottish scrapper" that Brosnan's Bond managed to shed.
