The next #Bond shouldn’t just change his face or tone. It should change its ethics. Let women exist in these stories as full people, not casualties of desire. That’s the true modernisation the series still hasn’t dared to attempt. 🎬

I’ve always found it deeply disturbing how women are treated in the James Bond films. In almost every entry, a woman—or several—is brutally killed, often soon after sleeping with Bond. It’s one of modern cinema’s most normalised examples of misogyny, hiding in plain sight. 🧵

🎬✨ NEW POST: Disney Renaissance Decoded
🏰 A 10-film deep dive into the politics, propaganda, and hidden transformation narratives in Disney’s most iconic era.

I Love You Forever (2024)

I Love You Forever starts out as a formulaic, heteronormative romcom that teases a switch to Claude Chabrol-lite, sub-Adrian Lyne psychological drama territory but never fully crosses over because …

Run Sweetheart Run wants to be a feminist horror thriller. What it actually is? A cynical, mean-spirited pseudo-parody that ridicules the very causes it pretends to support. It’s Don’t Be a Menace meets #MeToo — minus the laughs, minus the integrity.
