    Idris Alba has just been reported as saying he will never play
    James Bond because people won't accept a black Bond.

    Now that Amazon are in charge of the James Bond franchise, they
    could cast anyone!

    They could ... but it wouldn't be sensible and would ruin yet another franchise.

    That's just it... who you, me or anybody else here feels are

    No production company can keep EVERYONE happy.

    No production company can keep EVERYONE happy.

    They can keep as many people happy as possible by simply not making
    idiotic changes to the existing established facts of the franchise just
    to appease the whims of Politically Correct whiners or whater silly
    idea the new moroon in charge comes up with. They can also use some
    common sense and intellgence and NOT create so-called "reboots" that
    are a completely different product hiding behind the original's good
    name.

    I'm reading this in rec.arts.sf.tv, and was kind of
    hoping that the Star Wars Chritsmas Special had been
    retroactively erased from existence.

    George Lucas tried.

    One of the biggest (of many) issues with the Star Wars
    Christmas Special is that much of it is in Wookiee language
    with no sub-titles, making it completely incomprehensible.

    I think the biggest issue is, it got made!
