I said this when he bought Bond and the Washington Post.
Bezos is basically Elliot Carver from Tomorrow Never Dies: billionaire media mogul who manipulates the news to his own ends.
Slight tangent, but Elon Musk is even more like Hugo Drax of Moonraker: foreign-born billionaire who owns a rocket company and is obsessed with repopulating the earth with his own offspring.
This is why I think Tomorrow Never Dies is one of the most underrated films in the franchise.
Agreed. It’s a really creative story.
Who dat
Jeff Besos
Doctor Evil, but unfunny.
I had him as more of a Lex Luthor.
Larry Ellison feels like more of a Bond Villain.
Mark Zuckerberg could work as some kind of 80s/90s action movie baddie. I know a good analog is out there, but the best I can come up with is the VP from Robocop or the various evil CEOs from Tron.
Elon Musk feels like a Captain Planet villain.
Lex Luthor as a bond villain could work
Older versions of him work. The newer versions tend to be Wizard in a Gundam.
You only had him as Lex Luthor because he’s bald
He’s a secret agent
idk about that, have you ever seen larry ellison’s wikipedia article
the man is basically
wet blofeldkarl strombergAgreed, he can be in the 2nd movie
I’d keep Bezos as the OG Dr No (Nu? The villain that gets mocked in Austin Powers) and Larry Ellison as his porn double. Then Musk as their cyber punk porn double.
There was a time when all past movie Bonds were still alive. It would have been a great opportunity to make them the heads of SPECTRE and dramatically reshape the franchise.
