"bond as codename" is completely unsupported by canon (save for one dumb ad-lib by lazenby), ergo it only exists as fandom theory (moneypenny even less so)

m and q being positions that change hands is demonstrably not the same thing (or for that matter 007, which has always been james bond with the exception of two thirds of nttd; an exception that proves the rule, since the 007 designation was taken from bond and given back just as cheaply)

Yeah, sorry, it's not a fandom theory. It's been around since the *movie franchise* started.

[(Anonymous)]

The movies went out of their way to have Moore and Dalton, and indirectly with Brosnan, all mention Bond's illfated marriage from OHMSS specifically to nix that theory. It was a fringe fandom theory for fans to have fun with, it was never supposed to be taken seriously. you are why fandom cannot have nice things, stop taking fantheories and gags seriously

[dantesspirit]

Well then it's a good thing I don't participate in fandom then, isn't it?

So sorry to burst your bubble that a 'theory' that has been around since *before the advent of fandom as it exists now, let alone the internet* isn't, in fact, a 'fandom theory', exclusively.

[(Anonymous)]

you're on a website called fandomsecrets, you're literally participating in fandom RIGHT NOW

[dantesspirit]

No, I'm on a website called DreamWidth. Just because I randomly leave a comment or few in this *community* occasionally, doesn't mean *I see myself* as participating in any particular 'fandom'.

[(Anonymous)]

if it isn't supported by the movie canon then by definition it's theory (at best); it doesn't matter if it predates the modern definition of "fandom"

[dantesspirit]

Uh, never said it wasn't a theory. Not once.

Only that it existed *long* before fandom.

[(Anonymous)]

DA

You kinda literally did say, "isn't a 'fandom theory'" ntm, fandom did not start with the internet. It was around before the Connery era, and long pre-dated the first books too. Just saying.

[dantesspirit]

'Fandom' is a relatively new thing, *fans* are not.

Therefore, saying it's a 'fandom theory' is wrong. It's not, it's simply a 'fan theory' that existed long before there was such a thing as 'fandoms'.

*gasp* Imagine that, fans long before 'fandoms'.

[(Anonymous)]

My dude, you cannot carry those goal posts and pick up all that straw at the same time. It's just not effective.

ayrt

When exactly do you believe that fandom was invented then exactly?

The term fandom has been used in the early sixties (and long before) casually and as a common term, and works/theories/art/fanfiction/fanclubs/etc have been around for centuries.
Conventional/modern (as we know it) type fandom has been around for a long time. Sci-fi fandoms, all the way back to the 1920's have been huge. Just because they were processed through different means than today, physically or in person (think cons even) do not make them invalid.

Not being aware of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist, so try not to be all flat-earther about it next time.

Bond/007 as codenames isn't a 'fandom theory'.
*Of course* they're codenames.

NA - You are not handling yourself well in this argument. Just take the L and go get some air.

[dantesspirit]

LOL.

It's not a fandom theory. It's existed as a theory long before there was such a thing as 'fandom'.

That's not 'losing'. So no, I don't need to 'go get some air'. You all just need to accept that some things existed long before your 'fandoms' came along. Some things are not *exclusive* to fandoms.
