And keeping it real: that Bond note is not coming from the lower level execs who actually understand story and love the property. That is a Bezos-adjacent nitwit who has only watched the Craig films, and probably just the last one.

Also boy do I feel for Bond writer Steven Knight and director Denis Villeneuve. What a classically silly exec note to be trapped having to answer.

(Note: Roger Moore’s James Bond and Adam West’s Batman exist in the same universe.)

Truth!
A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

Downingtown is nearish to Philly, but that area is *Definitely* farmland, too. This is amazing.
Erica Deuso is the first openly transgender person to be elected mayor in Pennsylvania.
