To wish James Bond was real life

[Jamoffmytoast]

It's who we need right now, I wish there was a real one.

Oh yes! We certainly do

Lord of the Rings I keep thinking. We need some brave little Hobbits

Agree. Could do with Superman too about now, please.

Do we not have one?

I thought that's what mi5/6/secret service was all about.

We must have one surely?

I’d rather we had a real Jack Bauer. He’d get the job done.

Right now we don't need a James Bond. We need a successful Colonel von Stauffenberg.

Indeed, where is 007 when a crazed Russian needs to be swiftly taken out? 🔫

It just makes it more difficult to watch the superhero movies- where everything gets neatly wrapped up, and rarely anyone dies.

We need them all !
A collaboration of super heroes to save the day

If there is one then he/she would only act on the orders of M who would be carrying out the wishes of HM Govt. World leaders don't get assassinated except by their own.

He could go rogue @Pedallleur

I have been saying that too!

Someone needs to take him out. Might as well be Jack, although he may need 24 days.

Yeah but then something else would go wrong because the invasion of Ukraine would be just the tip of the iceberg. Gotta fill those 24 hours! And LA got nuked on Jack's watch...

He would be in and out unnoticed so that nobody knew whodunnit.

We need Ace Rimmer.

Jason Statham would do. Especially if he teamed up with the Rock.

Yy to jack Bauer. Maybe some kind of Bauer/Bond hybrid?

Lots of assumption 007 is male, but those Russians seem to like a mistress/girlfriend so prob that would be the way. Femme fatales like Col Onatopp or the Halle Berry character seemed to do ok. And there was the new agent in the latest Bond film

@Flyonawalk

We need Ace Rimmer.

And an adequate amount of kippers.

There was Denzel in The Equalizer. He demonstrated his skills with Russian 'businessmen'

I think John Wick would be my pick. Bond was always too easily distracted from the task in hand.

Tone deaf thread.

How privileged we are.

@MissAngorian you made me laugh out loud!

Oh @AutumnWinterWardrobe, I sort of see what you’re saying but I think many, many in a lighter hearted moment, whilst contemplating the hideous clusterfuck that is unfolding have thought - if only…. If only there was some being who could sort this out with minimal loss of life, saving millions in the process. Don’t begrudge people wishing for that outcome, even if it is a fantasy.
