    I don't think they will either, just tweak the thing, as you mentioned and aim at as many as possible. Turning a demographic off it just doesn't make any sense.

    To be honest I think NTTD already has quite a lot of that: Bond isn't horrendously sexist at any point in it really, doesn't do anything which anyone would describe as outrageously toxic or misogynistic. The character has already been tweaked, and all of these folk who get angry at the idea of him changing didn't even notice.

    You must be joking. As a Bond fan I noticed the changes setting in with Quantum and found them truly unsettling. As I've said before , Craig made a good Bond but his universe was a disaster, from my point of view.

    While not a complete disaster for me, I understand your thoughts. It could have been better. I think EON got a bit hotheaded when they got the Blofeld and Spectre rights back. If they are honestly going to try a long story arc again, I imagine that they have learned their mistakes with DC’s. Maybe film a film back to back maybe.

    I'm sure we all remember those horrendously sexist, outrageously toxic, and misogynistic films.

    Eon definitely got over their skis while trying to shoehorn the existence of Spectre into the earlier Craig films not to mention the Brofeld nonsense. For me the films just seem to be off after CR. Sure there are Bondian moments throughout them that ring true but just not enough for my taste in 007 adventures.
