1. It doesn’t even feel like a James Bond trailer.

   And it sounds like Cavill’s American accent rather than his actual speech.

2. slow news day at THR

3. We’re reporting on AI news now like it’s a good thing? Was this courtesy of Cavill’s PR team?

   “We know it’s fake but look how many views it has! Cavill for Bond!”

4. Poor Aaron Johnson. It seemed like it had all but been confirmed he was going to be the next Bond but Cavill’s team is pulling a Ryan Reynolds move getting a grassroots casting campaign started.

5. Stop with this. He’s busy making the 40k cinematic universe and doesn’t have time for your James Bond nonsense.

6. As if this post truth society wasn’t exhausting enough. Every tidbit of pop culture now has fake AI misrepresentating itself as authentic for clicks.

7. This is a scary fucking time for creatives.

8. This feels like a desperate PR move.

9. Not my James Bond.

10. Looks like AI watched too many shitty Superman trailers and not enough 007 trailers 🤷🏽

11. 2.3 million isn’t as many views as it was 10 years ago. I see videos of girls dancing on tiktok with 20million and they aren’t writing articles about that. Who cares.

12. Give it to Cavill you Brocolli people
