I’ve probably watched every Bond movie numerous times and I really hated the last movie. I’ve only watched it once. Killing Bond off was absolutely stupid in my book unless that’s the end of it.

It will be interesting to see if they even produce another one,

I am very concerned the direction they are taking the franchise.

I watch Bond for pure entertainment. I am concerned the next Bond will be female and then I will be furious. I did like most of the Daniel Craig movies as it kind of added feelings to Bond and a bit more character building. And I liked the less sexist version. Do not get me wrong. I like me some Sean Connery Bond. But the direction they took the character made sense and modernized the movies.

And I was OK with Bond dying. I mean we all know 007 is just a moniker. It makes sense there have been many and for sure some die.

Well sure. As each 007 'ages out' or somesuch, a new Bond steps up. Such is the way the world turns. Liked some more than others, and even enjoyed the Bond parody with David Niven and Woody Allen stepping in. Agree with Greyshirt that a female Bond might disrupt perceptions of the heavy drinking, fast driving, womanizing James Bond......but in this new world, who's to judge?

Broccoli said once that, because of the Austin Powers movies, they absolutely had to reinvent Bond with Craig. Mike Myers killed the old Bond.

To me Bond…James Bond…was synonymous with 007. In Goldfinger he says if I die they’ll replace me with 008.

I was surprised they gave the 007 to the lady in No Time to Die. They never gave 007 to someone else, when he supposedly died in Skyfall.
