You don’t HAVE to make another James Bond movie.

Or hear me out we make a Jane Bond just to watch the conservatives go crazy.

The next movie starts out with a James Bond, but by the end of the flick they are Jane Bond. 🀯

They should have stopped before the abomination that was the entire Craig run.

They'll never get a better opportunity to end the series for good on a high note...so some C-suite exec will inevitably force them to pick it back up again.

I think a modern goofy Bond wouldn't be timely and fine to make, although even now I'm not sure why that would be needed since we have Fast & Furious

Reality is full of villains worse than anything bond had to face. Can't make any movie that will be a good watch.

Tomorrow Never Dies kind of predicted or even spotlighted the overinflated ego driven psychopath's like Murdoch. The rise of zuckerburg/musk was soon to follow in the same vein.

An example of art imitating life imitating art.

So basically none of the parties with any power: Bezos, the Broccoli family, are desperate to make another Bond movie
