    I'm back! Anyway, got an idea for a Bond plot, I know this may remind of a film, but anyway.....

    Just thought of it, a high profile, beloved celebrity (name anyone you liked who could fit that image, could be an actor, a musician or any personality), with a hidden agendas to establish his political agendas for world domination.

    Now, he has a great image, great public following and flawless reputation and influential, any people who have done it wrong tend to be hated by the public and got persecuted, so Bond would be walking on thin ice here, he can't defeat this man easily or else, his name would be cursed by the whole world, because that villain is a well beloved celebrity that he had got them brainwashed that no accusations against him have the public sided with, and he could even turn tables against his enemies.

    Think of the Jake Gyllenhaal's character as Mysterio in 'SpiderMan: No Way Home', that could've happened to Bond if he had done the wrong move or fail, think of how Mysterio got the public sympathy and turned their hatred towards Peter Parker that it almost ruined his life, it could've happened to Bond.

    I will leave to all of you the possible plots the villain could do, but it should be something that's realistic, yet menacing, maybe Smuggling, Internal Organs Blackmarket or such.

    It would be quite interesting to see a Bond vs. the public, or at least public opinion story, yeah.

    Maybe we could have a new version of Elliot Carver, except this one is in charge of a large social media company which steers the public discourse through a bent algorithm and promoting posts to further his own agenda. Maybe he could even out Bond on there and make him infamous as an enemy of the people. What then?

    It doesn't need to be another version of Elliot Carver, more like a beloved public figure with a hidden agenda with possibly, a tendency of making himself out to be a victim to turn the tables against Bond (no villains in the series have done this kind of tactic/strategy, as far as I know), to ask sympathy from the people, like Mysterio from Spider Man, just in the same vein as that, trying to make Bond the villain in the eyes of the people, as he continue to accomplish his evil plans that the public doesn't realize, it would serve as a distraction so Bond couldn't be able to defeat him and he would still earn such publicity from people, while still doing his plans.
    More like a villain with a strong PR and very influential (a mix up between Gustav Graves/Max Zorin/Elektra King/Elliot Carver type).

    Just imagine him trying to ruin Bond in media, speak of him very badly in interviews or something like that to brainwash people and gain sympathy to attack Bond, and Bond, watching the interview on TV while he's in a hotel room, drinking his Martini or something, and he would be left shock due to the accusations and claims the villain are making out against him in public.

    A celebrity with secret Political ties for example, Bond trying to thwart it, but this villain would use the public (that he brainwashed) against Bond, it could be a very famous actor, or a musician (a critically acclaimed composer, for example), an award winning famous director, an F1 Sports Racer champion with great appeal and good looks, and adored by many (many stars of today were billionaires for example, so it's a bit plausible if applying real life scenario).

    But behind that well beloved persona is a maniacal villain, something like that.

    I would also propose that Bond would have an ally in this, those one of the people who tried to attack that villain by releasing the truth (against his plot as well) but he or she failed and that villain used his influence to put him or her in jail, that Bond ally is well disliked by the public because he/she tried to ruin the reputation of their beloved celebrity, and now this celebrity villain has been making fake accusations against that would be ally of Bond's more to further worsen his/her cases, Bond would help that person and would team up against that Celebrity villain.

    I like all of these ideas. Fake media is one of the biggest problems in the world now. Elliot Carver and his type of people are the Bond villains of the world now.

    I asked ChatGPT for a reboot and it came up with this. Personally, I like it.....

    Pitch: James Bond: Bloodline

    This origin story reimagines the young James Bond as a skilled but impulsive officer in the Royal Navy. On a covert mission to stop the hijacking of a British naval vessel, Bond uncovers evidence linking the operation to a shadowy figure with ties to his parents' deaths. MI6 takes notice of his bold performance and recruits him to investigate further, setting him on a path that will forever change his life. As Bond delves deeper, he uncovers a shocking truth: his father, Andrew Bond, long presumed dead after a climbing accident, is alive—and is the mastermind behind a global criminal syndicate.

    Andrew Bond is a brilliant but disillusioned former intelligence operative who faked his death after losing faith in the British government. Embittered by betrayal and driven by a warped sense of justice, he has spent years orchestrating a series of attacks aimed at destabilising the geopolitical order. To Andrew, his actions are righteous rebellion; to James, they are unforgivable. Their eventual confrontation forces James to grapple with the legacy of his family, his father’s twisted ideals, and his own morality.

    The story introduces Sofia Marchetti, an undercover operative posing as a journalist, who becomes Bond’s ally—and moral compass—throughout the mission. A seasoned investigator, Sofia has her own reasons for pursuing Andrew Bond, as his actions indirectly led to the death of her brother. Her sharp instincts and calm pragmatism contrast with Bond’s youthful recklessness, creating tension and mutual respect that evolves into a deep connection.

    In the climactic showdown, James faces his father in an emotional confrontation at an isolated, snow-covered mountain base. Andrew, seeking to manipulate James into joining his cause, reveals that the "accident" that killed James’s mother was no accident—it was Andrew’s desperate attempt to silence her after she threatened to expose his plans. In the heat of battle, James is forced to kill his father.

    The mission complete, Bond returns to MI6, scarred but resolute. Recognising his potential and his resilience in the face of impossible choices, M offers him the coveted 00 status. The film ends with Bond standing in a tailor’s shop, gazing at his reflection as he dons his first tuxedo, ready to take on his first mission as 007.

    I like that idea, in more ways than one. However, one of the only flaws is the family themes. DC's era over did the family theme in most ways possible, that even the general audience will get tired of it. It would be an interesting origin story though. Jeffery Deaver did something similar with Monique Bond as a Soviet Spy in Carte Blanche.

    Here’s what I think:

    An assassin targets, and succeeds, in killing every 00 agent except Bond. MI6 grievously mourns those fallen, but assigns these new 00 agents to the cases their predecessors were working on, until tragedy strikes again, with everybody except Bond perishing.

    MI6 then furiously demands answers and sends Bond out to investigate deaths and going to the locations of the other cases - with MI6 deciding they will not forget whom they are pursuing, but before they need to save the world, they decide to save themselves and pause the missions they are on after no leads turn up.

    Bond, meanwhile, decided to pursue and discovers the perpetrator of these murders, and his would-be assassin, and discovers it’s someone not on MI6’s radar. This person is an owner of a drug business, who uses a front for his activities. It turns out, the assassin has no ill will towards MI6, but is close with an MI6 agent recently promoted to a 00, and the killings happened to stop after these new wave of promotions.

    The assassin and this MI6 agent served and roomed together in the British Royal Navy. This MI6 agent passed numerous tests, checked off lots of boxes, yet kept getting passed over for the 00 promotion. So, he decided to turn against his organization and seek out this assassin’s help in exchange for being a funder of his drug business.

    Bond dispatches of the assassin, and the hunt for this new, treacherous 00, is on.
