Not to mention all the actual racism, misogyny, and the rape.

I appreciate the Bond series as legend, but my partner and I couldn't face any more movies portraying the same icky encounters as in ~~the first Casino Royale~~ Dr. No. We just felt incredibly uncomfortable for the woman being taken advantage of by Bond, in a beach hut

We loved the Daniel Craig films, though. Suitably modern.

The first Casino Royale is a parody starring David Niven. As I recall they specifically call that out to some extent.

Ah sorry, I must be thinking of Dr No then. It had a scene in a beach hut. Thanks!
