...does it matter?

I was more bothered by her being a field agent in Skyfall...

By the time we learned that she was Moneypenny, she wasn't a field agent anymore. I was more bothered by Blofeld being Bond's foster brother...

But we didnt know she was Moneypenny until it was revealed at the very end. It surprised me.

Makes sense to me. She is....a secretary. Race was never a part of who she was.

This is not a situation like Fantastic Four where they cast a black actor to play a character who is supposed to be the full brother of a white woman. THat's a head scratcher, this is not.

And I liked the fact it sort of explained why they have such a connection and he sort of has the upper hand in the relationship - she was a failed agent who actually shot him. haha.

Let me get this straight. It's okay to have a British Bond, an Irish Bond, a Scottish Bond, an Australian Bond, and a Welsh Bond (who's mother was American), but it's bs to have a Black/British Moneypenny? OP, if you don't like diversity, don't watch Bond movies.

lol at how mad you got.

Sean Connery and Timothy Dalton are British. Scotland and Wales are part of Britain.

reply

I'd like to see you tell Connery and Dalton that.

Laugh while you can, Monkey Boy!

I'd tell Connery and Dalton that they're both British, why not? Connery was fine and still remains fine with being British when it suits him like when he got his knighthood and is still happy to use the Sir title. Non-brits can also be knighted by the queen but only brits get the Sir title. If Connery wants to be just Scottish, and not Scottish and British I'd tell him he can always denounce his title. There's nothing stopping him except his hypocrisy. I like Connery btw, he's one of my favourite actors but some of his views are strange.

As for Dalton, he was born in Wales to an English father (which strangely you left out) and left before he was even four and grew up in England. I don't see any reason why he would hate being labelled British as you passionately seem to make out. It actually makes much more sense for him to identify as a brit more than anything else.

You’re mistaken we've never had a Welsh, Irish Bond Etc.

We've had Welsh and Irish actors PLAYING an English Bond, there's a huge difference, Welsh Bond would be a fine comedy though.

So how do you feel about Q being gay?

It's time for a backlash against digital photography, motion pictures, music, sfx

reply

Q is gay? Has anyone told him this? I think that he might to know.

You must really hate that M was a woman at one point too...so not traditional!!!!

Can't we all just get along?

reply

Could be worst. They could have a black James Bond.

I shudder at the very idea of Will Smith saying "shaken, not stirred."

reply

Don't be silly. If there ever is going to be a black Bond, it will be Idris Elba, who by the way IS British.
