I've read all three of Horowitz's James Bond continuation novels, and they are among the best of a very large bunch. Horowitz is right. Bond's death at the end of "No Time to Die" is an abomination. But it's even worse than Horowitz portrays it. Bond simply slips up and allows himself to be poisoned by one of the lamest villains in the 25 Bond films, then basically commits suicide.

Naturally, this was exactly what the woketards wanted. Bond is a symbol of heterosexual white male excellence, a last hold-out for the greatness of the Anglo-Saxon nation. He had to be destroyed. God only knows what Amazon has in store for him. If the new video game is any indication, he will be relegated to the role of an expendable street punk working for the diverse assortment of former British colonials who have now taken over a severely diminished Yookay. Perhaps they'll call it: "I'm Yookay, You're Yookay." And the villains will undoubtedly be white supremacists.

Meanwhile, if you'd like to read a based, badass James Bond reinvented as a medieval fantasy assassin, check out my new series "Assassin Royale" on Amazon. The abomination that is "No Time to Die" is exactly why I wrote this series.

I have a different perspective. The entire Craig Bond set was about iconic milestones over his life. Becoming 007, MI6, Spectre. Opponents, fellow agents.

The last movie is about how he stops being Bond. Retire? Give up his life for his country and the western order? They flirted with those, but he was still Bond. They chose Death by Noble Sacrifice for Family and Love. Great answer!

For the next film, they just need a new Goldeneye from the middle of his adventurous career to start a new continuing adventures set of stories.

The next Bond film can either just ignore NO TIME TO DIE entirely as many Bond fans did, or call it a bad dream/nightmare so it can be written off for the awful woke garbage it is. I also am glad this was Daniel Crags last Bond because he's gotten to anti-male for me. If I remember correctly in an interview he promoted the idea of a female Bond; how disgusting and traitorous to the brand. What's most upsetting is how Barbara Brochli allowed NO TIME TO DIE to be what it is.

I would say hopefully Amazon which now has the rights will fix this but one need only look at RINSG OF POWER to see Amazon is competing with Disney to see how many IP's can be destroyed and $$$ pissed away. We still have years of loses to deal with before these studios will no longer have the treasure chest to waste $$ as they do now on "the message"

I said when he was hired that Daniel Craig looked like James Bond's certified accountant.

"Physiognomy doesn't lie"...

Typo. Fixed, thanks.

1) Physiognomy can lie. It is widely considered a pseudoscience and its claims about linking character to facial features have been repeatedly debunked by modern science. There is no reliable evidence to support the idea that a person's inner nature or personality can be accurately determined from their outward appearance.

2 I still don't get what the point of that first reply to my post was for. At no point in my post did I say you were wrong about Craig looking like Bonds certified accountant so I don't get the point of your reply.

My husband will be shocked.

It's a meme.

" how will they get past the fact he is dead with a capital D"

By ignoring the film entirely as it should be ignored. They killed of Bond b/c Hollywood wants a female bond, preferable one of color who;s also gay and we all know it. The pro-female empowerment efforts are about co-opting existing mainly male properties and mutating the into female properties because these people aren't talented and can't come up with their own unique IP. They [Feminist] also enjoy destroying male beloved IP's like Star Wars. Feminism destroys, it does not create.
