Similar to YOLT and Blast From The Past novel and short story...
A set of 2 part films...
I have adapted this story from the books and not kept completely to the originals (but isn't that what all the film makers do) ;)
Bond settles down and marries (this will be for the first time as we are in reboot universe). His wife becomes pregnant but she keeps it from him as he has just been called back to London for a very special assignment only he can do and is in some way blackmailed by MI6 to do so, this is how the first film ends after a normal Bond style plot and then we have this as an ending, with her rubbing her belly or something as the credits go up.
Then we start the next film with Bond in action in the pre-titles finishing off his mission. Then he returns to London and M tells him his wife has been killed along with unborn baby that he didn't know about in an accident of some kind. This tips him over the edge, goes drinking, gambling, having lots of women etc. He starts making wild accusations that he will destroy MI6 for blackmailing him back into the service and this prevented him from protecting his family or dying with them (as he would prefer that to living without them). He runs into Felix who is worried about him and tells Bond that his wife/baby's death was not an accident as thought.
Bond goes on a crusade after Felix gives him some sort of lead. He finds the killer who happens to be a woman he wronged in the past and the only way for him to kill her and get revenge is to kill himself as well (I'm sure some scene could be written for this). He does so and then we see Felix standing over his body or some sort of explosion and the end credits roll.
:)
I think that would be pretty good spread over 2 films with side plots running as well, and the woman who killed his family has another major plot also as just a revenge job doesn't really cut it, like in QOS.
But this is all hypothetical as they will never kill off the franchise while it is making plenty of money, which is what it's all about!
Also because I can't imagine a world without Bond so it would have to be destroyed along with him! :)
In all seriousness we may never see 007 be killed off in our lifetimes, maybe one day the series will come to an end but I can't see it any time soon, sure there may be future legal disputes and hold ups and all that we've seen before but the franchise will continue to grow for sometime yet you would imagine
As long as people continue to fill theaters and pay the money the series will continue, even though QOS was disappointing we will still arrive next year in eager anticipation of what they have put together
That sadly will be how it ends.... It just stops.
And for Bond as a character, in his sleep I think
* Reaches for tissues* :'(
Connery- happy ending, after he retires he moves abroad and lives basically like he lived before, a new girl every 5 minutes, but eventually settles down n gets married.
Lasenby- after he retires he dies alone mourning tracy.
Moore- once hes retired he lives like the playboy he is and has a ton of girlfriends, but never gets married,
Dalton- daltons dark, cold, bond would be perfect for the missing in action scenario. He was always reluctant to take orders he didn't like and one mission pushes him too far and he simply never returns, everybody presumes him dead but nobody really knows.
Brosnan- marries jinx or something, happy ending anyway.
Craig- dies in action. He's that reckless it was inevitable.
Just natural causes catching up to the man after a well lived adventurous life. Oh and after saving the world (again and again). Fade out ...
but I really hope not!
1. Has to die in action
2. Can not be by his own mistake, he doesn't mess up so why change that
3. Can not be killed by a one time baddie, has to be a true nemesis
4. It has to be a truly emotional moment, in well trained directorial and writing hands
5. Arnold can not be in charge of the soundtrack
6. The film/films must be longer than 2 hours
I feel it would be a female villlain that will take him out. Someone he trusts, and loves. A nuclear bomb is within reach, and she grabs Bonds arm as he goes to defuse, and kisses him. As she does she handcuffs the both of them to the bomb. He embraces her, and he can finally be with a woman he loves without anybody's intervention.
-The bomb is in a nuclear research facility that nobody will miss, and the radiation element has been removed leaving only the explosion. Bond's nemesis in the film expects him to defuse, and doesnt expect it when he doesn't. Bond and his love have broken laws and are surrounded outside by a baddie army, theres no hope. We see the main baddie/nemesis close his eyes as the blast knocks him back, and then the rest of the film focuses on Bond and his baddie love, locked in each others embrace as they kiss, not-arnolds score bringing the viewer to the ultimate torture of the hapiness and sadness of the moment.
James Bond is happily ever after,
thanks for 100 years of support.

Now, I would normally end these final tales in a sad way, with Bond maybe looking in the mirror at all the scars he has and all the pain he has endured from working his body to the limit, and he sips a martini with a shaking hand until it drops, Bond dead where he sits. But I love him. I wouldn't be here on this site if I didn't and I care way to much for him as a character to see him go out like that. Some characters simply deserve to go out peacefully, like Bond, and if you are going to end a character's life do it right and keep him dead if you dare to do it *COUGH* Conan Doyle * COUGH* instead of making up some cockamany tale to bring him/her back later on * COUGH* Conan Doyle * COUGH*.
Man I need to do something about this cough.
