Thank you for posting the information. I emailed them my outrage.

The slightest commerce with ICE must bring about social consequences so severe that no door will ever open for the collaborator again as long as they live.

UFO 50 would be that much more playable for me with a quick save feature, holy hell.

Related: under the original ownership by the Broccoli family, with each new Bond actor rose the question of how to modernize Bond, who by modern eyes is a very regressive figure with dated values and modes of interacting with the world.

It’s one of those pre-hard-continuity things that you get from old franchises that, in their time, always just had “another movie,” especially pulp-style & structure as they were. Modern ideas of continuity challenge what they are and their mode of storytelling in several ways.

Canonically, yes, but the prevailing fan theory is that “James Bond” is a name assigned to special agents, much as “007” is. Hypothetically all of the adventures took place, but different agents were James Bond at different times. The movies have yet to confirm this; the death forces the issue.
