STOP GETTING BOND WRONG...
I've had a tiny bit of a complicated relationship with James Bond... An avowed James Bond fan since early childhood but I grew up to come to sympathise with some (by no means all) of the criticisms levelled at the franchise from dyed-in-the-wool Bond-sceptics. "How can a liberal progressive be OK with such a character!?" some people cry.
Well, for lots of reasons and even though I agree with some of the criticisms levelled at James Bond, I do think most are too generalising and in bad faith. In essence, a lot of people write off the whole of Bond in bad faith.
So I'm keen to get into this issue - and loads more - via taking a journey through the complete literary and cinematic output in release order as my complicated relationship with 007 just got simpler and I rediscover my love of James Bond.
So come with me as we begin a James Bond 007 Supermarathon!
Aiming for a weekly Wednesday upload with this marathon but I'm not as good a shot as Bond so I may sometimes miss - but that's my goal.
