Bond Scenes that Couldn't Be Made Now Because of Poli Cor

Any scene with Bond smoking.

"Fetch my shoes" from DN.

Dink gets her bum slapped from GF.

Bond forces himself upon Pussy and Pat in GF and TB respectively.

The "It's a man's world" line from LTK.

Wint and Kidd

What else?

Some tweaking perhaps of the girls on Piz Gloria, Ruby writing on Bond's leg, how they seem to be queuing up to get into his bedroom.

Bond's slapping of Tracy.

Tracy...

just off the cuff, might be off the mark a little :)

They probably couldn't have the Chinese girl eating rice and the African girl eating a banana

Bond 'going Japanese' in YOLT

Sheriff J.W. Pepper repeatedly calling the black henchman "Boy!" in LALD

Bond calling Tiffany "Bitch"

Just curious, why would this be un-PC today? Was there a crash? I'm just not familiar with the history.

Sorry, misread the title. Concorde was retired in 2003, so it wouldn't possible to feature it today as a commercial airliner, though not due to political correctness.

Yep. We'd never see a black girl scarfing down a banana.

Bond slapping any Bond girl - Tania, Tracy, Andrea, etc.

Chew Me swimming naked in a pool. That's Craig's gig now.

Bond stripping Rubavitch when Pushkin's guards enter the room.

The gypsies in FRWL.

Practically all of LALD.

"A woman?" to Holly Goodhead

"That'll keep you in curry for a few weeks."

Reading a lot of these posts in this thread gives me a case of the sads. It reminds me of what a great series it once was

SONY got a bit of grief for the construction scene in CASINO ROYALE; it was considered "racist" by some critics who thought Bond showed insensitivity towards the black workers by ruthlessly pursuing the bomber at all costs, even if it meant crashing through a work site without any regard for the safety of others.

I guess those critics probably would think the firetruck chase in AVTAK was homophobic (because there are a lot of gays and lesbians in San Francisco), the taxi cab chase in AVTAK was Francophobic, the taxi cab chase in India was racist against Indians, and the gondola chase scene in MOONRAKER was insensitive towards Teddy Kennedy (who was running for U.S. President at the time).

the prelude in TWINE perhaps insensitive to the decent job Swiss bankers actually do.

PCness aside, it was painful to watch the smarmy Brozzer make one terrible joke after another in that scene.

very true. Smarm set to stun.

Still, if you can't trust a Swiss Banker who can you trust? :)




sorry, sorry

Nic Nac being tied up in a cage at the end of TMWTGG, for being insensitive to short people

Christmas Jones for insulting nuclear physicists...and Christmas (sorry, cheap shot I know, just had to do it)

In a future re-edit, Christmas Jones will become Holidays Jones.

From YOLT:

"In Japan, men come first, women come second."

"I just may retire to here." ;)

First I heard of this, who were these critics?

FFS. So Bond was "racist" in GE, when he disregarded the St.Petersburg civilians while he operated a tank through the city?

These critics should never watch a movie again since in most movies there are -isms to be found.

And the chances are that in certain places in the world the workforce is mostly coloured having white workers would have made it strange.

If there is one thing that should be apologised for is the sheer dissapointment with the nuclear physicists got when they discovered that somebody so hot was NOT one of them. :*e*:

Perhaps this Naomie Harris will play a character named Kwanzaa Smith. You know, just for equality's sake.

This thread makes clear just how pernicious PoliCor really is. Because it's so insidious it may actually be more destructive and stifling than Socialist Realism.

I hadn't heard this, but it's about par for the nutty course.

Sometimes I think the safest course of action is to simply not have any blacks in your films because you can never utilize them in a manner that some high-placed moonbat won't label "racist." Then again, we know what happens when blacks are "underrepresented"...
