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!
Bond isn’t the best at everything
If Bond was truly the best at all the things that a human being could do, the stories would be boring. He’s human, he fails.
While the earlier films make him out to be this superhuman, “never let them see you bleed” superman, it’s only in the Craig era that we get a more bruised and beaten Bond.
In the novels, he’s completely mortal. He’s ok at driving and judo, decent at swimming, golfing, hand-to-hand combat and skiing, but gets bested from time to time. He’s the best shot in the Secret Service, but constantly gets beaten by his instructor.
He’s certainly not any better than the other fellow. Also, George Lazenby deserved more movies.
