What does the Amazon take-over mean to the franchise and fandom?

A tectonic shift in the James Bond power structure shook the film world and fanbase on Thursday when Amazon announced they had inked a deal to take over creative control of the 007 films from Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson. Their price? $1 billion according to reports. With EON out of the picture, what does the immediate and long term future of the franchise look like? We gather the panel to discuss their instant reactions as well as cast an eye further down the road as the ripples from this impact will take a while to reach distant shores.

The recording took place on February 21st, 2025 in the USA and UK.
