Rebecca ass is shockingly tame for old James Bond
Pussy Galore is unironically a character name in Goldfinger (1964)
-
I like that, even in-universe, in 1964, Bond's first reaction to that name is "I must be dreaming". So it's not like the filmmakers weren't aware of how absurd that name is. They just didn't give a shit.
-
I never read them, but the filmakers were just adapting books by Ian Fleming into movies after they found out how successful they were doing. 50 shades of grey was based off a Fan Fiction novel wasn't it? And those movies came out what I would consider recently.
I think mainstream media just converted Bond into an Icon that was supposed to be more upstanding than he originally was meant to be.
The lastest plays on Bond were the Kingsman. Where a princess tells the main character he can fuck her in the asshole if he saves the world, and he just basically says brb.
-
Apparently they wouldn't have been allowed to use that character name, except between writing the script and the studio approving it, the name had already been published by the press. So they had their community reaction to it already known, and the public expected it when the film was to be released.

Aside from Pussy Galore, another favorite inappropriate Bond moment I enjoy is from The Man with the Golden Gun. Bond approaches an Asian woman skinny dipping in a pool and asks her for her name.
She responds: "Chew Mee"
Bond: "Really!?...."

And this is why I'm not bothered by Amazon taking it over.
James Bond has always been bizarre with tone. Each Bond is different. As long as they're not as Bourne-y as Craig's then I'll be fine. But them stealing bonds quips and gadgets and women... The fuck? You made British Jason Bourne with more trauma and less of an ability to cope with it.
-
As long as they're not as Bourne-y as Craig's…
Yeah. The Venn diagram of good Bond has a bit of Austin Powers and Inspector Gadget overlap, not Bourne.
-
What do you get if you overlap the other three? deadpool maybe
-
The opening of casino royal is about as borne as it should get.
-
Craig has actually said that the serious tone was a reaction to Austin Powers existing. It was too on the nose.
-
Which is just cowardice

Moonraker.
Your argument is invalid.
Being shit is sort of part of Bond tradition
Edit: This comment was meant to be jokey but re-reading it, that tone isn't really achieved.
My point was just that Bond movies have a series of being all over the place. I mean we have gotten a lot of insane bullshit in the past. And while the original movies were more 'serious', they also had way more camp and fun than the Craig ones do. I love the Craig ones for what they are but they're a very gritty take on Bond. I just hope it doesn't become the default.

Sometimes I wonder if all the James Bonds are the same person, or if "James Bond" is like "The Dread Pirate Roberts".
Poor fella lost his wife on his wedding day. He has loads of trama of his own.

On Her Majesty's Secret Service the second actor to play the role gets beaten up, after which he says "this never happened to the other guy!"
-
Do with that what you will..

I think they're all the same.
In Evil Genius 2, John Steele becomes that though.
