Does everyone here already know this amusing factoid?
from hortidaily.com

“According to Cubby, they were descended from the Broccoli’s of Carrera, who first crossed cauliflower and rabe to produce the dark green, thick-stalked vegetable known as ‘broccoli. ‘ It was this vegetable that supported them in the US, as Giovanni’s brother started a broccoli farm.”

yes and get away from the formulaic BS I know i could write an outline for a Bond film with some dialogue that would fit the current mold.

#17: Bond will come in to see Moneypenny and say “I’m now a woman.” and Moneypenny will say “I’m now a man.”

LOL! Zing! You nailed it.

the best thing about Bush I was when he said he didn’t have to eat Broccli anymore.

That irritates me too by not including Casino Royale (1967) and Never Say Never Say Never Again.

The next James Bond will be black, a woman or a tranny (or a black woman tranny). White male actors need not apply.

I would love to see a new Bond series start in the mid-1950s and work its way up to the “Swingin’ ‘60s,” as Fleming’s books did.

I would love to see that, but it will never happen. The 1950s and 1960s were too politically incorrect for today's woke sensibilities.

They haven't ruled out a black tranny Bond.

They honestly haven't even ruled out a female Bond. They just are not going to admit to it until one is cast.

"We were going to cast a male for the role, but she was just so awesome and perfect for the role that we changed our minds."

I wonder if Mad Men would be made today with the same early 60s tone.

I’d say set it from the 1945-69 period, where it belongs.

The next Bond film should star Daniel Craig (a few years prior to the death) in a remake of Live and Let Die with the drug being fentanyl, and light brown people replacing dark brown people.

The remake theme would be as the original, only with Sting as the vocalist.

Really, they need to do fifties Bond, and the first story needs to be a book-accurate Moonraker, with the bridge game, Nazis, submarines and that fantastic three-way car chase.

No computers, no cell phones. Could be tough with the younger ones

Might be instructive on how to get along without them!

I’ve wanted Bond to be period piece character ever since Roger Moore took over the role. Best way to avoid the constant political and cultural nonsense. No guarantee though — they could pull a “Grantchester” and be both anachronistic and depressingly gay.

Female, black, transgender. HAS to be by Hollyweird standards.
