How racist would you say this movie is?


It looks like Japan is basically one giant orgy

Ugh... this film was made long before PC crap started ruining the world.

I think its just a product of its time and not intentionally racist.

Not racist in the least. One of Fleming's best Bond novels, sadly not well-served by the film version. Blofeld MURDERED Bond's wife in the novel, "On Her Majesty's Secret Service." In Fleming's actual novel, "You Only Live Twice," the payoff was that Bond let Ernst Stavro Blofeld die!

PS And what is either racist, or wrong, with an orgy? I'm guessing you've never been part of one. Ergo, you know not whereof you speak. Orgies fucking rock!

I wouldn't. I know how to watch movies within the context of when they were made.

Not racist at all. You are confusing racism with stupidity.

reply

Not at all. There is a difference between being racist and politically incorrect.
