I'll stop before I stir up any trouble.
Too late for that. Your rash generilazations are downright offensive. So some people don't want Q or Moneypenny to return, who are you to say they're wrong?
"Rash generalizations"(I corrected your spelling for you)? Considering we are talking about the possibility of some people turning tooth-and-claw on Bond 22 if it were to feature these two characters, I'd say I'm hardly the one being rash. If I'm making generalizations, they are based on the specific statements made by individuals here on this board. I suppose my taking people's words at face value is a cause to be offended. On the other hand, asking people to calm down and be a bit less reactionary when they post their opinions about what
might appear in the next film or wording their posts in such a way that they don't sound quite so perturbed might also defuse any conflict. But why bother with that, eh?
I believe if you read what I wrote, you'll see that my issue is with the silly assumption that these characters
cannot be reintroduced without reducing the series to cartoonish spoof, not with the the preferences of some that they shouldn't be included. Since it is indisputable that it is
possible that Q and Moneypenny could appear in Bond 22 and the film still be as good as CR, I'd say I'm right in considering such outright fretting pointless and inane.
If you're offended, you're awfully sensitive. Considering the fact that I posted a response to a comment about James Bond films, not some racial or ethnic slur, your degree of righteous indignation seems a bit excessive. At worst, I was accusing a handful of people of overreacting and not having a positive outlook - hardly cause to take offense. Getting all red-faced and hot over my comments is roughly akin to sitting around two years before the next film comes out, worrying that one scene with Miss Moneypenny will somehow doom the entire franchise...
