I'm all for moving with the times. But not bond. The film is about James bond. It wouldn't be a James bond film if they changed it. Maybe a spin off. Another DOUBLE O agent. But leave bond as it is. |

"Personally I won’t rest until they do a trans bond "
They've had a trans bond girl before. Although I'm not sure if they knew she was trans at the time of filming |

"Ummm bond clearly says in skyfall "What makes you think this is my first time?”. When silva is rubbing him up..."
Came here to say this.
Bond's whole schtick is that he'll do anything to get the mission done. Why shouldn't that include seducing another man?
(Also, watch the beginning of Licence to Kill and tell me that Bond doesn't have history with Felix's fiancée Della. MMF, MFM or swinging? You decide. I'd totally believe they met her during an operation and their first date involved DP.) |

Becoming more inclusive of people with different attributes and identities, you mean? Yes. It's great, isn't it? |

"Obviously I'm taking a lead from The day of the Jackle and Atomic Blonde but it would broden his ability to seduce information from his encounters or am suggesting the unthinkable "
If Bond was Bi he'd definitely Roger More ;-p |

I think it's incredibly patronising actually.
If we truly believe that everyone is valid, then why is no one working to create a new spy, superhero or whatever type of role with the characteristics you mentioned? That would be original and something worth celebrating. |

"Ummm bond clearly says in skyfall "What makes you think this is my first time?”. When silva is rubbing him up..." . Yeah. He’s had his cock sucked by a bloke for sure. A few too many martinis made him stir.

Excellent question. Why *is* nobody doing that, do you think? |

Becoming more inclusive of people with different attributes and identities, you mean? Yes. It's great, isn't it? I agree, creat new heroes with different attributes and identities,,but leave the old heroes alone.

This is what I was thinking. Whether he’s is or isn’t bi. I could imagine him doing anything to get the job done for Queen and country.
Just like people can be fab straight here, maybe bond is mi5 straight ? |

Because it's easier and less work to try and modify a winning formula than to create something new. |

I don’t agree with redefining an established character just for the sake of it or to appear inclusive.
True inclusivity would the development of other characters with different backgrounds, ethnicity, sexuality, gender identities. Trying to force those things into an existing character is just a clumsy idea, lazy thinking. |

I read somewhere that the majority of real "double ohs" are bisexual as they stand more chance of obtaining information from a "fab straight" guy in the real world.
But then again Bond has never reflected the real world. |

Bond is bond, wish people would stop trying to change him. If he is outdated and nolonger fits into modern day ethics, past his sell by date, retire him.
Create a new ethos, a new modern age character.
Why do people feel they need to try and destroy history, remake it on their own image "history is history, past, gone" should be changing the future and not re write the past. |

No I don’t. Should we have Harriett Potter with her girlfriend Ginny? No. The history of the character is there so should remain.
Perhaps someone could write a new Bond-like character at some point to embody all these things people want |

I agree completely. It is not for the masses to rewrite an authors characters, only the author themselves can do that.

Completely agree. Trying to shoehorn old characters like this into current culture is just clumsy and lazy, trying to stay relevant while still milking an established franchise.
Like you say, leave bond as is, if that means he doesn’t fit and is a dinosaur, retire him, develop other characters.
Bond is clearly defined in the books and should be left that way. Same with poirot, Marple, etc |

Nope, the character is great as he is. If it's not broke, don't fix it. I'm all for diversity in cinema but I don't agree with changing a character for it - I'd rather see a new franchise develop and have it's own story.
There's so many talented actors and script writers alike out there who could nail it too!

Can't believe he turned up to the manger bearing gifts of bronzer and a botox gift voucher. |

Being in HM's secret service it's highly likely he went to public school. So... |
