" Best example? James Bond. He's no longer a womanizer. But that's not Bond."

One movie, and the one movie everyone acknowledges was a turd. Now that overwrought overwriting turdship of "No Time To Die" is a prime example of Hollyweird's internal failures in this century.

That picture was doomed from the start: Craig genuinely did not want to make it because the original script did not have him dying. Then when Barbara greenlighted his death, writer-director Danny Boyle (who would have been brilliant), said, F it.

Then it was in the can for release at what turned out to be prime pandemic time, and postponed twice from there, with much talk about reshooting the designer genetic virus plot. In the end they took it in the teeth.

Also in the original script, Bond was going to bed both the Cuban Paloma and 700 lbs of "Nomi"s big booty.

Even though Bond did not screw around during NTTD, during the story arc of Bond's initial liason with Madeline Swann in Spectre and their canon off-on relationship with what turned out to be the mother of his child in NTTD, he cheated on her at least 3 times.

Finally, Lazenby only had one extremely brief dalliance in On Her Majesty's Secret Service, and instead the focus was on his courtship and marrying Diana Rigg.

It was a piece of crap. The movie didn't make sense. Bond became woke. And then he died.

Maybe the best part of the movie was that he died at the end.
