Bond is still culturally relevant and I'm really happy about it
21 yo, grew up watching Bond movies and, after NOTD, I was afraid that 007 would just fade away and become less of the cultural giant it always has been and, with all the years that went by with no news on Bond 26, that feeling kept growing but, in the last year or so, this has completely changed.
The game 007 First Light seems to be highly antecipated and all the trailers and gameplay footage gets a lot of traction and talking points, and I'm really happy to get to play now a new Bond game which seems to do justice to the epic scale of Bond stories. But with Bond 26, from the announcement that Vileneuve will direct it(high-profile and aclaimed filmmaker) and the repercussion of the announcement and, recently, with the news that casting had begun for the new actor, I've seen so many posts, comments about it that it does make me smile that Bond is still relevant.
I can't wait to play the game, go through my first new casting announcement and to watch the new movie. It's just because Bond is so important to me, glad to see that the world still cars about the most well-knowned spy there is.
