    Who would win?Two of the greatest super spies are pinned up against one another, and only one can reign victor. I’m going to compare the movie adaptations of both James Bond and Jason Bourne.

    The creator of James Bond put a lot of not only effort into creating the character, but also a lot of his heart and soul. It could be argued that James Bond is an image creation of Ian Fleming. That Fleming created an autobiography through James Bond without actually making an autobiography. Without these elements of Fleming within Bond, it’s quite possible to say Bond and his story lines might not have been as successful as they are. One of these elements seemed to have more of an effect on not

    master spy James Bond film starring Sean Connery, launched one of the longest running and most successful franchises in movie history. World needed a hero of the cold war era and in real danger of nuclear war there was nothing to worry about so long as Agent 007 was on the case. Bond was given a license to kill and to stereotype.

    In the film Skyfall featuring secret agent James Bond, the director uses the camera to captivate the audience by making it move so natural that the viewer doesn’t even recognize that they are so involved in the story of the movie. The director starts off with beautiful shots of a grand casino decorated with stereotypical Asian décor. This invites the viewer to believe that this scene is taking place in China and with the viewers being from mostly Western Europe and America, they do not identify

    James Bond has been around since 1962, and 26 movies later, his image is still going strong of the extremely handsome and covert agent that saves the day, and always gets a pretty lady/Bond Girl, at some point of the movie, to himself. Skyfall incorporated all these traits that make 007 (another name James Bond goes by) who he is. Skyfall is a Bond movie that describes his comeback to MI6 (his secret agency) after being off the radar for a long amount of time. Bond shows the usual Bond traits in

    The gender representation in the James Bond franchise are displayed quite differently throughout time. The 1964 Goldfinger, written by Ian Fleming, portrayed women as sexual objects that were there for one plain and simple reason: amusement. Whereas in the modern 2015 Spectre film, directed by Sam Mendes, women are presented with a lot more empowerment and strength, which was absent within the 1964 film. Women in Goldfinger were objects that were used for Bond’s entertainment. On the other hand,
