Line 114:
** Not to mention the book ''[[Live and Let Die (novel)|Live and Let Die]]'' with its over-the-top crazy racism. Hilariously, James Bond's Texan sidekick Felix Leiter tries to educate him about black culture in America.
*** Which you have to admit is bizarre!
**** In fairness to the book it points out that Leiter's knowledge of black culture is because before joining the CIA he used to work as a journalist in Harlem. Additionally, however incomplete Leiter's knowledge might be on the topic it is still notably more substantial than Bond's, who literally just got off the plane from London.
*** Even more ironically, Leiter was portrayed by a black man in the ''[[Casino Royale]]'' reboot with [[Daniel Craig]].
*** And before that in the "non-canonic" ''[[Never Say Never Again]]'' with [[Sean Connery]].
