The Bond movies are simply “comfortable” fun. They poke fun at Americans, but in a nice way. Like when you tease a close relative about a zit on their nose. We always know Bond will not die. Everything mechanical he touches will, but not Bond. He is a very nice “Bad” boy, who mans up when it comes to helping his allies. He does not always follow his orders, but he gets his job done. Many people identify with this! Lastly, dude never seems to need sleep or use the crapper, Instead, he gambles, drinks, and has sex. I guess Bond is the ultimate grown-ups’ cartoon.
