Cary Fukunaga Says Sean Connery’s Bond Is ‘Basically’ a Rapist: ‘That Wouldn’t Fly Today’

Indie Wire ^ | 9/23/21 | Zack Sharf

[plain talk]

Don’t recall Bond raping anyone. But I do recall Bond using a woman as a human shield while dancing. :-)

[x]

I don't know about "basically a rapist, " but Bond doesn't seem like a "No means no" or a "Would you object if I kissed you?" kind of guy.

But, yeah, this is preemptive. Act woke and go on making the same old movies, more or less.

Old Bond, rapist or not, was ahead of the cultural curve with all his interracial ... well, we can't exactly call them relationships.

The Democrat soils whatever it touches. Pure evil.

[wally_bert]

Didn’t Bernie write some?

[DJ MacWoW]

That’s who it reminded me of! ;-)

[SuperLuminal]

Cary Fukandnag should sleep with the fishes...

[fieldmarshaldj]

"Fukunaga"

Yes.

[dforest]

Well, most women wouldn’t because it was Sean Connery. LOL

[wally_bert]

I know a hardcore female Bernie lover who is oblivious to what he is.

One or two times he was in the area for a gathering she was there and thinks she is his personal representative in the area .

I regard her as agent 0.00000007 and just as relevant.

Bond meeting Vesper in Casino Royal was the best dissection of the Bond character I have seen or read

Vesper: All right….by the cut of your suit you went to Oxford or wherever and actually think human beings dress like that. But you wear it with such disdain, that my guess is you didn’t come from money and all your school chums rubbed that in your face every day, which means you were at that school by the grace of someone else’s charity, hence the chip on your shoulder. And since your first thought about me ran to orphan, that what I’d say you are. sees a slight reaction. Oh you are. And it makes sense since MI6 looks for maladjusted young men who’d give little thought to sacrificing others in others to protect queen and country. You know former SAS types with easy smiles and expensive watches. Rolex?

Bond: Amega.

Vesper: Beautiful. Now having just met you I wouldn’t g as far as calling you a cold hearted b-a-s-t-a-r-d.

Bond : Of course not.

Vesper: But it wouldn’t be a stretch to imagine that you think of women as disposable pleasures rather than meaningful pursuits, so as charming as you are, I will be keeping my eye on our government’s money and off your perfectly formed arse.

She only sees and hears what she wants to.

Now do Hunter Biden, who isn’t fiction.

[wally_bert]

That’s the one.

From the episode The Organization Man.

Good and almost Bond episode.

Involved phony Highlanders.

"Do you mind if my friend sits this one out? She's just dead."

My wife loved that scene.

"How was your steak? 😋 Skewered. One sympathizes."

[TChad]

I read all the Bond books and saw many of the movies.

Bond didn't rape anyone. He was enthusiastically heterosexual. So were the Bond women. Man-hating feminists hate enthusiastic heterosexuality.

Virtue signaling is a full time job.

I have a few DVD players and some legacy PCs with optical drives plus I rip discs every so often.

At least Secret Agent Super Dragon is safe.
