No Time to Die (2021)

The Bond film was dull but symbolically loaded. The biggest threat to Bond was not the usual run of villains (the Dr. No-like Lyutsifer Safin), but the increased presence of Black women (Moneypenny, Nomi as the new Agent 007) and LGBTQ+ (Q) staff at Her Majesty's Secret Service. Bond's death at the end is the (symbolic) end of white heterosexual patriarchy.
