Is this where I outline my idea for my dream Bond movie (yes it is)
This only works on the premise that "James Bond 007" is the name and number given to the top 00 agent at any given time, and that when one dies or retires a new one takes his place, so each actor is actually portraying a separate character. Not only does this allow for the different faces and personalities but lack of aging over 50 years, in-universe it makes more sense than a spy telling everyone what his real name is.
Anyway, my idea was that Sean Connery would come out of retirement to play his Bond again, the first Bond, who is now a leader of a crime syndicate (or terrorist ring, or something). He's a bitter old man who's angry at MI6 for demanding so much of their promising young men before destroying their lives, and he's set out to destroy the agency. He's had all the training they have so he knows how to stay ahead of them and predict their moves, so Craig-Bond can't just punch his way to a solution. It would have a whole lot of revelations about MI6 and the nature of the 00 program and what happens to old cast-off spies.
It'll never happen because the studio has said they do not support the multiple agents hypothesis
And even if it were made it would probably have to be the last Bond movie ever
At the end Connery offers Craig a choice
1. spare him and join his organization
2. kill him and lead the organization and carry on Connery's mission of ending MI6
3. kill him and remain in the MI6 fold
He's not trying to force or coerce Craig into picking any one choice because, says, Connery, it's a choice freely offered, which is more than MI6 ever gave Craig
I haven't yet decided which one Craig will pick
isn't it obvious?
kill him and retire, let a new bond take over.
Oh jeez, how did I even forget that one
That is probably the most likely one

And it keeps the "new bond being hired" post-credits scene. Of course, that choice wouldn't be offered.
Never satisfies when the hero just takes one of the options on the table.

(Also while we're dreaming, The Protomen would do the theme song for it)
I think you'll find that The Protomen will do the soundtrack for my dream transformers movie. decepticons get an act I metal sound, autobots get an act II joe style set of songs
The pre-credits opening would start off like your typical Bond cold open but would wind up having Craig shut down and getting his ass handed to him at every turn because Connery doesn't fall into the typical villain pitfalls and monologues and such and invented half the techniques they teach current 00s
And Craig basically has to limp back to MI6 looking like a fool and has M fill him in on Bond Prime
Also Timothy Dalton would be Connery's right-hand man, because I always felt Dalton was the angriest of the bunch and if anyone went rogue it would be him
And the events of Die Another Day were a hallucination Pierce Brosnan was having while he was being tortured by the North Koreans
He never actually got out of there

to actually make this work
have the pre-credits sequence only be like two minutes, tops
But wasn't there the whole thing about one Bond visiting another Bond's wife's grave or something? Doesn't that contradict the theory?
There are plenty of things that could contradict it
I think I've seen this particular explained away as a professional courtesy
There's no reason a Bond couldn't have been friends with his predecessor and mourned his loss

I can dig that.
Don't get me wrong, I love this theory/idea for a movie. TO DEATH
I've also read a version where Craig is the only new James Bond
wait what do you mean
like the other 40 years of Bonding were all one guy and then Craig is the new one
yes

god, i can't remember who said it
i think it was grant morrison? but moore's bond had basically seen it all at that point, and he was so good at saving the world that he purposefully sabotaged himself just to keep it interesting for him

There's way more to contradict than to support probably, but I choose to ignore most of it

I guess I can get behind this
At the very least to try to justify why he spent the action climax of that one movie running around dressed as a sad clown

Why I fear the ocean.
exactly
PI also thought Avengers was only okay and thought Dark Shadows looks interesting. No comment.

Oof
but you also know i will never resist any opportunity to take the wind out of someone's sails
to actually make this work
have the pre-credits sequence only be like two minutes, tops
and no elaborate credits sequence
he got old and retired and now he runs a fish and chip shop in Surrey
even the dead ones
Bond bangs all of them in turn
they murdered his wife
i'd turn lazenby as an inside joke to the premiere
dalton should be crazy
moore should be a drill sgt for bonds because he's seen some shit
peter sellers is the new q
and chuck

she was slammin
i like the idea of moore being completely out of it
like, he's old, he's retired, he spends all day pottering about in the garden or sitting on the porch in the sun and watching the girls go by
he strikes me as too essentially harmless for a sergeant. that's just me though.
also they should bring jaws back
god Hot Fuzz is so good
I'm about due for a re-watch
And production on The End of the World is starting later this year
I can dig that.

Rosamund Pike?
the first forty years were a time where juan sanchez villa-lobos ramirez was bored and dicking around as a spy
