Summary

In the latter half of the 2010s, hollywood invented an idea called 'feminism'. What 'Feminism' consisted of was making new movies from studio-owned IPs, cast of entirely women. One example of this phenomenon is 'Ocean's 8', a movie about Danny Ocean's sister Debbie Ocean doing a girl heist for girl riches. For some reason we spoke about this for two full hours. ----- FREE PALESTINE Hey, Devon here. As you well know I've been working with a few gazan families to raise money for their daily living costs in the genocide. As a ceasefire has been announced, we hope soon plenty of Aid can get in and help alleviate the dire famine they're being subjected to. But until then, they still have to afford to eat, so we ask for you to keep helping them out, just a little longer. https://www.gofundme.com/f/a8jzz-help-me-and-my-family-get-out-of-the-gaza-strip https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-me-and-my-family-to-find-a-safe-place https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-us-maher-and-my-family-to-leave-gaza-to-belgium https://www.gofundme.com/f/htdcj-evacuating-my-family-from-gaza https://www.map.org.uk/donate/donate ----- This is an unlocked bonus episode, find the rest here, on our reasonably-priced patreon!https://www.patreon.com/killjamesbond ------ WEB DESIGN ALERT Tom Allen is a friend of the show (and the designer behind our website).

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to another episode of Kill James Bond. I am November Kelly. I am joined as always by my friends Abigail Thorne and Devin.
0:25.3	Hey, it's Girls Night. Oh, it's Girls Night, sorry. It's Girls Night, but Dev is also here. It's a
0:32.2	Girl's Night movie. Oh, I'm invading your spaces. It's Girls Night spelled with an X, right? It's women and and non-binary people night. It's women and non-binary people night.
0:40.3	It's women and non-binary people.
0:42.3	This is the most welcome I've ever felt in a women and non-binary people night.
0:47.3	It's it's Groxels night, Grixerls.
0:50.3	Listen, it's a film, it's a film night for women and femmes and AFABs.
0:57.0	That's right.
0:58.0	It's a, it's a film night for female and female identified talent.
1:03.0	I went to a writing workshop once, where I was the only trans person there and they turned to me when they said that, and I was just like, okay, fuck you. They see you walk in and we're like, we're going to do a pronoun circle and you're like, okay. Great, I'm going to fucking kill me. I'm going to get my dick sucked. I'm going to kill myself. Sorry, I need to explain that to the listeners immediately. I'm just thinking of trying to replace like self-talk with positive self-talk. So instead of saying I'm going to kill myself, I'm just saying I'm going to get my dick sucked. That's what that joke is. I'm sorry. And you busted that out on us with no warning. I wasn't getting my dick sucked at the female and female identified talent screenwriters. It was not what it was for. You were in the group chat, like, I'm having a horrible day, I'm gonna get my dick sucks, and I'm like... Yeah, both me and over, like, huh, interesting. Do you not enjoy that? Like 9 a.m. Yeah. Some people don't, you know? It gives them a lot of dysphoria sometimes.
2:01.0	Yeah, not me though.
2:01.7	It happens.
2:04.1	Write that down, canonical.
2:05.1	As a very wise podcaster once said, since the dawn of time, women have been half of the people that there is.
2:12.0	Yes.
2:12.9	Right?
2:13.4	And in the 2010s, Hollywood kind of caught up to this fact in the most performative possible
2:20.8	way.
2:21.8	Yeah.
2:22.8	And so we had this rash of very insincere attempts to reboot existing beloved IPs and
2:31.0	be like, but it's for and by female identifying talent.
2:36.1	You guys love that, right?
