James Bond Racist

[GavinPearson]

Felix Leiter has been white and black, so has Moneypenney, and the performances of the more recent actors has been far better than in the Bonds of old.
I think Daniel Craig has been a superb Bond and I pity the casting director that has to replace him.

[Oakey]

I guess that's a fair point. Because, for whatever reason, there aren't many fictional black literary characters as famous as Bond does that mean we should start making white fictional characters black to compensate?

I don't think it would go down too well if the next Shaft, Axel Foley and BA Baracus were to be white. People were making cries of racism when Johnny Depp played Tonto ffs.

Godwin strikes again.

He did though, play the Moore of Venice, so a tad hypocritical.

Blimey, that's going a bit too far.
This him?

Very good. I was just wondering who would make a good Othello, Jackie Chan maybe?

Jacqui Chan surely, don't want to be sexist about it.

I think finding a plank of wood should be a fairly simple job. Then they can paint it black or white.

Bond 24

We begin with our hero having just completed a successful counselling session in which he was able to reconcile his bi-curious nature with a cisgender identity. It seems his issues were caused by his parents, Colin and Peter, accidentally exposing him to a news report containing flash photography when he was six.

Meanwhile, the evil Doctor Brit White has hatched a nefarious plan to frack for shale gas and try to sell it for a profit.

Bond’s boss (who isn’t a lesbian, but why would it matter if she was?) sends him to put an end to the evil doctor’s scheme. Bond spots Brit White driving along a motorway and gives chase in his Q-Branch Nissan Leaf. Ignoring the warning signs, White drives his Range Rover through some roadworks at sixty so, for safety reasons, Bond stops the pursuit and calls for aerial support. Unfortunately, due to tory cuts, there is only one police helicopter in the area and it is tied up hovering over the home of someone who might have written the word “Muslim” on Twitter.

This time Brit White escapes but that doesn’t stop Bond, who cunningly looks up his address on the Companies House website. That night, Bond rings the doorbell and is met by the evil doctor’s evil henchman, Handjob. Not happy at being disturbed during dinner, Handjob raises his voice at Bond. Knowing that it is his right to work without being bullied or abused, Bond reaches for his Walther before remembering that the department has removed it, as negotiating is always a better way. Instead he relies on a few well-placed postmodern ironic jokes about the tories and soon charms Handjob into bed, where he whips out a consent form before engaging in some mutually-satisfactory safe sex.

Afterwards, while Handjob is asleep, Bond uses his Asperger’s skills to work out the correct PIN to unlock the evil henchman’s iPhone and acquires Brit White’s telephone number. Giving the evil doctor a call, Bond is able to persuade him to change his ways and build a solar panel farm instead; a bit like Scaramanga’s in The Man With The Golden Gun.

THE END

This film needs to be made.

I can't wait for Goodluck Jonathan to pay Prince Philip in the upcoming royal biopic.

Oh ffs. Prince Philip, Mohammed Ali, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King....these are/were real people. James Bond is a fictional character.

I would be against Denzil Washington playing Andy Warhol, but that's not what's being discussed here.

It's not difficult to grasp. A made up person can be any colour your imagination can stretch to.

Any colour that has a resemblance to



and that fits with the image of a c.1950 MI6 officer. It's no more daft an idea than those stupid invisible cars though.

FFS, I can't believe you actually just compared me to Hitler, I honestly thought the whole internet joke around this had been the usual extreme piss take. To actually find someone that fking stupid is pretty amazing.

You're pretty fking stupid yourself.

I'd better reign it in before you report me to the mods.

Great comeback, really original, would have never thought of that one myself….Oh…wait.

As others have said, race has changed between book and film/performance in other instances - Lincoln Rhyme is white in Jeffrey Deaver's books, but was played by Denzel Washington in 'The Bone Collector'.

Maybe everyone will call me a racist? Bond is white for me. I don't get why we have to pander to the guardian readers who want everyone to,be the same colour in their utopian world

Quite a lot different, the essence of Bond is his Britishness, this defines the character and has been played on in every film ever made, in recent films they have been tapping into this even more and looking at his past in order to explain his character, a very british past. Suddenly popping up with a black guy in the role would be stupid and would, in my opinion, make a complete mockery of the character and the image that has been built over decades and many films.

The question that should be asked is why, there is no sound reason to take this turn, its not as if we have ran out of white blokes to make the film with. The only reason for casting a black actor in the role would be to sate the looney left and PC brigade as its certainly no way in keeping with the character or necessary in any sane way.

+ 1. This.

So black people can't be British?

Quite..!! A lot of people here are defending their "whites only" position on the basis that anyone who disagrees is a rabid-lefty. That sort of defensiveness is exactly the sort of behaviour that the rabid-lefties are liken to engage in.

We've had several generations of black Brits now. Given that ALL of us likely have a mix of different groups of people contributing towards our DNA, why are whites any more allowed to be Brits than any other group?

Oh FFS, here we go, did not think it would take long for them to crawl out of the cupboard.
Lo
Yip, whenever I see a picture of a black guy I automatically think British….it's in the blood.

You sound like Hitler watching Jesse Owens at the Munich Olympics.

No, he sounds like a normal person who's sick to the back teeth with people whose lives are consumed with pushing bloody "diversity". Please shut up, other cultures DO NOT need your help.

+ 1. From someone who probably has never had to visit tower hamlets. Typical guardianista.

Swine. I have a really bad cold, and I've hurt my chest . 10/10

[MrBarry123]

Are there really people on here agreeing that James Bond cannot be played by a black actor or have I missed a lot of sarcasm?

And Ian Flemming's imagination stretched to a white Bond.
