James Bond films have always landed on the side of the ridiculous, but the latest in the franchise - completed after the 2020 global totalitarian coup - is simply absurd.
No, I haven't seen the film; and no, by absurd I am not referring to the overall overall characteristics and cliches of the franchise: the supernatural action sequences, imagination-defying tech gadgets, or the scheming super-villains who always aim to dispose of the captured 007 via some elaborate and complex execution method - usually involving sharks, fire, whirling saw blades, rising water levels, or laser beams - that inevitably provides Bond with the time, space, and opportunity needed to escape.
By absurd I mean the basic, underlying premise of the whole James Bond franchise itself - that of a "good" secret agent who works on behalf of a "good" system to foil evil, psychopathic geniuses and organizations that attempt to either take over the world or outright destroy it.
The James Bond franchise has always been pure fiction, and it has never aspired to be more than mere entertainment. Nevertheless, the global 2020 coup has rendered absurd the entire premise upon which the franchise is built for the simple reason that the evil, psychopathic organizations have taken over the world and are now in the process of destroying it.
To make matters worse, the forces to which the James Bond character belongs have been actively complicit in the Satanic take over and destroy process. Thus, the premise of any post-2020 James Bond film that follows the standard 007 franchise "good versus evil" formula is immediately incoherent and utterly absurd.
More than that, it intentionally insults and humiliates. To put it in the proper perspective, a post 2020 James Bond film would be akin to the Soviets having produced films featuring anti-Bolshevist secret agents fighting to save the world from the horrors of communism and then subsequently screening these films to gulag inmates serving life sentences during the height of Stalinist tyranny.
To save the James Bond franchise from sinking further into absurdity, I humbly propose that future, post-2020 007 films should feature more realistic and "actual" conflicts between and "good and evil". Something along the lines of Bond thwarting a massive global white supremacist movement bent on instituting worldwide white supremacy. Or, 007 infiltrating the dreaded cult of the unpecked that continues to scourge with world with life-threatening pestilence.
Even better, how about one featuring the skilled and handsome member of Her Majesty's Secret Service ruthlessly hunting down malicious Christian bloggers who are forever working to motivate people to choose the side of God and Creation?
