If the Bond franchise moves forward with it's plan to replace Bond with a female, it will be the end of the franchise I predict. Most Bond fans are pretty picky about who plays Bond and tend to have started watching with the early films. As much as I have loved Daniel Craig as Bond, I feel the whole franchise lost something when it chose to completely remove all humor. The old films were cool, sexy and hilarious (especially Moore films) and this newest adaptation was just cold and brutal with zero humor, I mean not even an animal gag. I miss the old Bond!
He’s not actually very fashionable
The Bond franchise is known for some seriously slick looks and bespoke suits. It’s not actually Bond’s style in the books.
I mean, he does get custom suits, but mainly, he’s a relaxed dresser. In fact, more often than not, Fleming describes Bond as wearing “well-worn,” “comfortable,” and “battered,” suits, paired with moccasins/loafers. This was virtually unheard of in 1950’s London, as most people tried to dress to impress and wore appropriate footwear. But it gets worse.
Paired with those suits, were dress shirts with short sleeves and breast pockets for his cigarettes.
Sounds totally suave and sexy – a mis-matched, chain-smoking, alcoholic.
