Well, at least she didn't set fire to the rain.
And her other song; “You left me. But I’m not gonna go on about it, honest”

Shes said that before in the past. Or possibly she said she didnt think it was a good idea, now she is saying definite no no. Shes right, create new female characters, dont make a male character female.

If they make him a her it ceases to be the same character and should thus be avoided.
Same as if Miss Marple was portrayed as a man or Lassie as a cat.
If this displeases those who identify as a jar of marmalade or whatever, so be it.

I think it's a early tactical pre-defence against the murmurings of what the new film may be. They are already much smarter than the Starwars/ghostbusters lot.

“Once James Bond, always James Bond”

Interesting tag line considering nearly all of them have at some stage expressed concern/regret at becoming known for just the one role.

I always heard "Let the Skyfall, sticky fumble...."

Good choice going for Billie Eilish, she really can sing and she also has something a bit different about her. Her music is really quite varied too, she can do the more modern popular stuff but also the more serious vocal acoustic stuff equally as well. Looking forward to hearing this!

James Bond won’t be turned into a female, but 007 will be...

Rumour is James is retired out in Jamaica and his replacement is the new female character, who will need his help for whatever reason. Cue strong female character who will resist the misogynistic Bond’s advances. I fear No Time to Die will suffer from being woke

I think at the end they will be in the shower and she will say You can have your Double O back and he will say is that all you want to give me?
Thenm the steam will rise up and james Bond will be heard to say so that's where you keep yur weapon and the woman will giggle like crazy and at the very end she will shriek Oh james

basically an updated reshoot of the classic scene in A View To A Kill - the greatest Bond Film ever on VHS

On Radio 5Live this morning: The new Bond movie to have a running time of 2hours 50 minutes. Surely not. With few exceptions most films should be around the 2 hour mark.

Because a square and the pocket is on the other side of the jacket. The final edit seems to have decided that the scene would display better if he ran across screen the other direction from which it was originally filmed.

It's an old spy trick. A secret message maybe?
