IT HAS LONG BEEN SPECULATED THAT JAMES BOND ISN’T ACTUALLY A PERSON, BUT A CODE NAME.
SOME SAY THE NAME IS PASSED FROM AGENT TO AGENT AS THEY ASSUME THE ROLE OF 007.
BUT WHAT IF BOND ISN’T A CODE NAME, BUT A FAMILY DYNASTY?
SEAN CONNERY’S BOND DRIVES AN ASTON MARTIN DB5 WITH THE LICENSE PLATE BMT216A.
THIS CAR IS LAST SEEN IN THUNDERBALL, BUT IT REAPPEARS IN SKYFALL WHEN CRAIG’S BOND
FLEES LONDON IN AN ASTON MARTIN WITH THE EXACT SAME EJECTOR SEAT,
FRONT MOUNTED MACHINE GUNS AND…
WAIT FOR IT…
LICENSE PLATE.
HOW DID DANIEL CRAIG GET SEAN CONNERY’S CAR?
HE INHERITED IT FROM HIS FATHER, SEAN CONNERY.
CONNERY’S BOND IS SCOTTISH, WHICH IS CLEAR FROM HIS THICK BROGUE.
IN SKYFALL, CRAIG’S BOND TAKES M TO SKYFALL MANOR, THE ESTATE WHERE HE WAS RAISED.
WHERE MIGHT THAT BE?
THE SCOTTISH HIGHLANDS.
AS AGENTS, CRAIG AND CONNERY ARE MIRROR IMAGES OF EACH OTHER.
IN GOLDFINGER, A WOMAN IS KILLED BY BEING COVERED IN GOLD.
IN QUANTUM OF SOLACE, A WOMAN IS KILLED BY BEING COVERED IN OIL.
CONNERY’S BOND IS ARROGANT AND SMUG.
HE RARELY MAKES MISTAKES AND ALWAYS COMPLETES HIS MISSION.
CRAIG’S BOND SEEMS DARKER, MORE TRAGIC.
WHAT IF HIS DARKNESS COMES FROM CONSTANTLY TRYING TO LIVE UP TO THE IMAGE OF THE FATHER?
MAYBE THIS IS WHY EVERYTHING THAT CONNECTED CRAIG TO HIS FATHER - THE HOUSE, THE CAR,
EVEN M - HAD TO BE DESTROYED.
CRAIG COULDN’T GET OUT FROM UNDER THE SHADOW OF HIS FATHER...
UNTIL HE GOT RID OF EVERYTHING THAT CONNECTED HIM TO HIS LEGACY.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
