SEATTLE, WA – With Amazon now holding the rights to the 007 film franchise, the company’s CEO, Jeff Bezos, announced the first movie will pit Bond against his greatest enemy yet: ungrateful workers in fulfillment centers who want to unionize.
I legitimately expect there to be something negative about unions in it. Whether it’s a “corrupt union boss” or a union strike blamed for something bad happening.
I feel like they might be more clever than that. They will make it organized crime, make them incompetent mooks being manipulated by some fake humanitarian that is funneling charity into evil. Then a tech oligarch will help Bond at a critical time, and they’ll be like “It’s a good thing this small business owner happened to have a billion dollars that he earned through legitimate, moral effort.”
