    Hmm! What on earth could Bond do that won't involve politicians, billionaires, and ongoing wars? Maybe that was the enjoyment on the Connery series. The stories weren't ripped from the headlines. As it is, for the next four years we're going to get a daily dose of the big players. I am not interested in Bond taking on fictionalized versions of today's who's who in the headlines. I want to escape that. I am doing my best not to get caught up in the daily blather. Why waste time and create anxiety that changes nothing? I want a Bond film that takes me away from the world, not one that drags me into it further.

    I'm sorry if you're saying the Connery films were not impacted by current events then I don't know what to say. The first three villains are a Chinese man, a Russian woman, and a Nazi teaming up with Koreans.

    Goldfinger is British though.
