The reason why James Bond behaves the way he does is better alluded to in the books than in any movie other than maybe Casino Royale. The reason he spends his money on fast cars, clothes, and travel is because he knows that he's chosen a profession with a famously short life expectancy. It doesn't make sense for him to plan for a future when the odds are so high that he won't have one. This is also why he doesn't seek long-term relationships. He refuses to let a girl love him because he knows that he could be dead any day now. It's actually a deeply chivalrous and even compassionate way to live. He doesn't abandon them because he doesn't care -- he abandons them to protect her from the consequences of either of them caring too much. Because if Bond's enemies learned that he loves someone, they can compromise national security by threatening her safety. This is why I love Casino Royale so much; it's the only Bond movie that gives you a window into the way he thinks about his relations with women. He literally says in the movie that 00s have short lifespans and even tells Vesper that she's not his type because she's single. He only wants to sleep with married women because he knows that there can be no chance of heartbreak or emotional attachments, the existence of which could be lethal in his line of work. (And when he does fall in love with Vesper, he immediately resigns from the service; he knows that the life he's chosen as an agent is incompatible with a normal personal life, so he forces himself to choose between the two.) Not many of us can imagine this level of sacrifice in the name of one's country. I suppose it's thanks to the elite men that are willing to make such sacrifices that we'll never have to.
So to address your video, I don't think he's a product of his circumstances as much as he's a product of his choices -- something we as men should all strive to become.
Wow this is a great outlook. That's an aspect I didn't think about. I do lean more towards the side that his career makes him who is rather than him being a "psycho", so this real nails it thank you bro🙏
Sheesh this is dope view would like to see a video about this side
It's so sad that after 27 attempts they still haven't even scratched the surface with his character. They literally wh*re him out for money and propaganda instead of doing Fleming justice.
The cars, clothes, and travel costs are funded/paid for by the agency (and government) though, not himself.
@@perrycheong1058 Interesting!
One thing we overlook about this Bond, is that he was almost a nobody in the organization before becoming a 00, an agent with good test results at best. And that he reached this level at a later stage in life, basically at the age of 40 or so, as his biological age on screen would suggest. By his experience we can assume he had a lot of missions, but never killed anyone while on duty.
The whole 00 system in this universe is clearly aimed at levering the trauma of the agent's first two kills. One to qualify him, the second one to prove he can repeat the feat and still remain a functional human being thus a lethal agent.
He also jokes about the short life span of a 00. It all indicates to a crisis of sorts, a serviceman that fully understands he is at the end of his service with every breath, which if we rationalize it, we are keen to understand why he dares to do the many things he dares to do, and how the 00 program might have an understanding of that mechanic in place, hence why the 00 we see executed at the begging of Casino Royale was so nonchalant about his upcoming death, and so cynical about taking advantage of his position to acquire profits since death was right around the corner either way.
Good job. Agree. Another point to consider is that Flemming was in WWII. He is a character written from an author had to focus on winning at all costs. Killing was the way to that victory. Also- alcohol is a large coping mechanism before psychology got better in later generations. We are viewing Bond decades after the culture he was written in
He wasn't written in WW2, the first Bond Fleming novel came out in 1953. If you're trying to say that the character was shaped by the time period and Fleming's own experiences of war, yes, fair enough.
Loving these breakdowns lately, proud of you bro.
Appreciate it my bro 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Love your content
Another great video J Wisdom!
Thank you so much, J. Wisdom, for creating a video topic, and analysis of the dark psychology of Daniel Craig's version of James Bond. Daniel Craig gives such a darker, edgier, and realistic approach to the legendary spy. It is often regarded as a successor to Timothy Dalton's for his gritty, and serious take on the role, which is closer to the character as originally written by Ian Fleming. His casting was initially met with usual skepticism, but it eventually paid off with the very positive reception of CASINO ROYALE, with special praise to his performance. The character's dark psychology that I like to see is Tony Soprano from The Sopranos.
Craig sucked
Great suggestion Malcolm thank you🙏
I’d say Tim is much better because the bond in the novels while he was deeply flawed but he still had a bit of fun (not Roger Moore fun) like playing cards or golf or taking care of his car and I definitely saw that in Tim he showed bond’s rough edges and soft edges at the same time but not Craig because the last two that he did were so NOT bond like the idea of blofeld being his half brother is literally a ripoff of Austin powers which is a James Bond PARODY and that he’s a family man? Like absolutely NOT bond was never written as such. In a short story that serves as a continuation to you only live twice bond has a son from the Bond girl and he was never in his life but did pay for his education and one day he got a call from him to come to New York for an urgent matter and when he got there he found his son dead as revenge for killing blofeld so no imo his last 2 he just loses his credibility to me
But I’m not gonna say that he never good no casino and Skyfall definitely felt Fleming like and he was great but not spectre and certainly not no time to die
Ey Bro would be dope to see you react to characters of the wire. I know there’s a lot of creators who talk about the wire but I think you can and will definitely give a fresh look and different perspective to analyzing the characters
Great video man I especially though the added detail of visual flow points and a 3 step system in visual cues !! Great stuff
A future video suggestion not that you should but I hope this might be taken into consideration lessons from Eliot (from the show mr robot ) or white rose !
Stuff that can be covered as lessons : how hacking or any hobby once developed can pop out at their concepts from the hobbies developing a problem solver due to the neuroplasticity
Of our brains making us more capable to think on our feet like Eliot and white rose !
Thanks for your quality content and time investment
Stay dangerous and nice to meet you man!
I love these vids keep it up
I love the breakdown analysis keep it up
Appreciate it bro 🙏🏼
@@JWisdom can you do a breakdown analysis on Seto Kaiba from Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters
love your content keep up!
Thank you bro will do🙏🏼
One of my favourite characters of all time. Great video bro
Likewise bro! I'm glad you enjoyed appreciate it 🙏
To truly determine if James Bond is a psychopath, you'd have to know more about his childhood. Psychopathy is generally an inherited, or genetic trait. We do know that because of the death of his parents Bond was definitely a damaged child, and damaged children are very easily forged into whatever a government, or system needs them to be.
Not here
You are absolutely killing it with this valuable content. I was wondering if you are looking for a short form content editor? If so, I'd really love to make a sample video for you!
Hello
This channel is 🔥🔥

Keeeeep doing those videos !!
I can say as Bond fan but well thinking man. Your right. And you understand hard dark soul of 007.
The road to 100K subs within months!
Again a blast of a video🔥🔥🔥
And what edit software do you use?
Thank you bro 🙏🙏I use Adobe After Effects
Very informative video bro. Bond is the male personality even though he is a psychopath in his traits, his confidence, defensive mechanism and love he is instill upon the women which you have talked about is unmatchable. Keep it up brother.
Well said, thank you🙏
I enjoy you deep dives into characters and all the angles about them mentally and how they work and why .. very detailed and thoroughly 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾amazing.. you could probably be a master script and plot writer ✍🏾 because if your understanding of different characters and mental conditions that human people form when faced with different decisions and interactions with others in their life .. hands down you are really good bro .. interested into knowing what is your line of occupation, cause this is a talent that you have narratively and book work wise have mastered ..
When Casino Royale first came out on DVD, you received a special DVD-Cut with snippets of interviews. A few years later, they changed the DVD set and took the interviews out. But I can tell you this - One day, during the construction site chase filming, Martin Campbell (the director of Casino Royale) had a chat with producer Michael Wilson. They noticed that Daniel Craig was playing the Bond character totally different...and they loved it. But, they couldn't figure out what he was doing. So about 20 days after shooting the film, they pulled Daniel aside and asked him - "You're a VERY different James Bond and we love it. What are you doing with the character?" Daniel Craig said - "James Bond is a bad guy. He's arrogant, mean and loves to inflict damage. But he just happens to work for the good guys."
Anyway to do an analysis of Eddie Morra from limitless
? Love the videos
Bond is too quiet and calm that is worrying.
Great video. I have a top ten list of underrated and great villains.
1. Johnny Ringo from Tombstone
2. Eric Qualan from Cliffhanger
3. Nino Brown from New Jack City
4. Rico from Paid N Full
5. Bricktop from Snatch
6. Lil Z from City of God
7. Sgt. Waters from A Soldier's Story
8. Col. Jessup from A Few Good Men
9. God from In Too Deep
10. Edward Norton from Primal Fear
Can you do a profile video on these depraved characters, thanks.
Great list!
You have to understand his past. He lost his parents and was raised by MI6 to be their machine that kills and carries out missions. He understands he's disposable.
good work, and here's what you missed if I can humbly disclose- narcissists lack empathy true to the bone and recognize validation merely as the reward this, in their eyes, cruddy world they live in. I don't think a gentleman like bond doesn't appreciate that without some modicum of altruism, in fact, we see he indeed has a sense of altruism in what he does. he even has sorrow for learning about if someone dies. those are for sure contradictory write-offs to a clinically diagnosed narcissist. the question becomes even richer, what is his personality? I've always found him best when he deadpanned in the face of death. I mean, that's something people wish they had so it's not necessarily bad if having detachment in place of fight or flight is utilized to preserve safety. his mindset is, this is a game of cutthroat poker and I've never been beaten when facing these stakes so that's how he can be so smug and arrogant too. I mean, sometimes getting out of a deadly situation without damage can boost anyone's ego enormously. I love this discussion, btw.
I saw the recent editing of the original books, its weird how much we idolise dangerous behaviour in some areas but can't face that there would be faucets of that behaviour which would go hand in hand with it
Divorce is never the way out, My wife and I have been having issues before I sort out help from a spiritual adviser,i wasnt going to let my marriage of 18years crash
amazing,i am kinda in a similar situation,how did you handle it?

@@DavidVelasquez9 please how can i get in touch with the spiritual adviser?
@@peterwilliams6361 her name is SHELLY RENEE WHITE,and she is a great spiritual adviser as well as caster
you can look her name up online and you will find all you need.
love the content, keep it up gee ❤️ please do analysis on Robert McCall from the Equalizer
Thank you bro 🙏much love
What I find interesting (and very much so tragic), is that Bond is indeed a psychopath, who wishes he weren't a psychopath.
His relationships with Vesper and Madelaine do show that, somewhere inside, he wishes for a normal life, but also his interactions with Felix (played by Jeffrey Wright) show that, although he won't admit it, he craves meaningful friendships and trust.
Yep. He knows he has to behave like a psychopath to be good at his job, and later drown his conscience in oceans of alcohol.
Its crazy the way I behave is just like James B.
Very nice 👌 bro, could you breakdown the character of IVAR THE BONELESS from VIKINGS
Can you make a video doing a behind the scenes of ur editing? Because your videos are always top tier and very enjoyable to watch

Great channel bro!!
Thank you bro much love ❤️🙏🏼
According to HG Tudor, Daniel Craigs James Bond figure portrays a narcissistic psychopath - ie suffering from both NPD and ASPD.
HG Tudor is wonderful
ASD? I dunno 🤷♀️
Personally still waiting for a Mr robot analysis 🧎🏽🙏🏾
W vid tho🔥
No matter how cold James Bond is he’s still a fed
"Is James Bond a Psychopath?"
No, he is just fine, we are the psychopaths
James Bond is a man who does his job, and he does what they trained him to do, and Bond will do whatever it takes to complete the mission even if it means killing without hesitation.
TOP TIER! Best in the game 🌟
❤️❤️❤️
Thanks baby
He is my favorite movie actor 💯 Man is who is DANIEL CRAIG IS THE BEST ONE BOND EVER CERATED me like this one too much 💚💚💚💯💪🙏
You should do Jax teller from sons of anarchy! A very interesting character that changes over time
Such a great idea ! Would love to see that .
Do a video on James st Patrick from power
I hope you will make more lessons from characters too
I might bring that back in the future bro I’ll see
"We create our own demon." - Tony Stark (Iron Man 3).
The phrase red flag just got used on James Bond 😂 oh dear
I was in love with him and still grieving 😂💔
You gotta do meech from BMF
Could u do a breakdown on Emperor Palpatine or Darth Vader from Star Wars
I would love to see a video on Walter White, if you would like to do that.
I’ll definitely be doing him soon🤝
M was his worst loss...that was losing his Mother, and for a second time
I don’t think he doesn’t have any concern for others that get killed because remember on that island when the villain had that women hold a shot glass on her head and had bond shoot it? He was bothered by it. He just handles it differently and doesn’t hold on to it.
James Bond is not a physio path, he is genuinely upset when M dies, he genuinely cares about his daughter and his girlfriend in no time to die. The reason why he alwase tries too have cheap thrills is because he WANTS to feel something, 00 and the mi6 don't want him too by all means he shouldn't be sleeping with women yet he does it because he WANTS too feel attached to someone, he WANTS too be happy. He avoids relationships because he knows they might die, he doesn't involve people because he CARES about them. Not in the Craig era but in the world is not enough, Bond says he HATES being a cold blooded killer, and in tommorrow never dies he is SO upset when his girl dies. He feels guilt for his messes, but knows he MUST do what's best for the mission but also gets caught up in his own emotion.
Can u do one of Bruce Wayne/Batman?
My name is Bond James Bond,,,,,,,,
Will you do one one tariq st patrick?
100% coming soon bro
Better to be a psychopath that operates on principle than an empath without a code.
Now please do Ethan Hunt
bro try do homelander from the boys
Basically a psychological breakdown of every American business titan that has ever lived. So if that's the case, please God, give me "The Dark Psychology of James Bond" LOL!!!!
Bro please explain captain Jack Sparrow`s character
GIANCARLO ESPOSITO - ANTON CASTILLO. ... Far Cry please!!!!
As a Bond fan, this video is brilliantly well done.
Can i have nigga word pass?
Thanks
❤️🙏🏼
So basically sterling archer
a necessary evil.
I don’t know about combat, Bond seems to suck a hand to hand.
Kevin Dutton, a psychologist that specializes in pro-social psychopathy, thinks Bond is a realistic example of a psychopath
Kevin Dutton is wrong.
I don’t think bond is a phsychopath, but I do believe this guy I quite cold, shockingly so, like this has been spoken about in other videos by other individuals, I do think bond has serious issues behind the calm outside appearance think skyfall and his past but he may have some narcissistic tendencies with some physchopathic tendencies but an all out physchopath well I don’t think so, he can feel empathy say but is as reckless and cold as hell and how he treats death and women and how brutal he can be is concerning
That’s why I prefer Sean Connery “James Bond”.
Back again
Amazing video. My favourite movie character. Everybody needs to pick up something from James to be an masculine man.
Also, one more James but from tv show is in that range. James St. Patrick "Ghost". Highest value men there. Keep a good work man!
For me he is sick
Have you watched all the Bond movies ?
Because he saves world every time?!
Bond is not a psychopath. He is a gambling addict. He likes thrills in general, and may see his missions as games. That was shown in Casino Royale. The chase in Madagascar was a game for Bond. It was a sporting event. In a casino Bond goes to the card table and beats the villain because that's part of his mission. But Bond doesn't gamble for victory only. He gambles for the thrill. Even when it almost kills him. The woman at the club in the Bahamas sees this in Bond and shares with him the experience of humiliating her husband. That's why the two hook up. But there's no love in their encounter. Bond is just a gigolo to her, and a lousy one at that. All in all, Daniel Craig's Bond is a reluctant womanizer. The other Bonds had more fun.
Bond's tendencies would get him into huge trouble if he was living a so-called normal life. As a secret agent he can exercise them without adverse consequences. But to get that freedom he has had to pawn his life. There is bitterness and defiance in Bond's famous mannerisms, because he knows that he can be disposed of quickly. Bond's boss M has to make use of his recklessness and his resignation to his fate, while giving him enough hope to keep him from becoming a complete criminal or making suicidal decisions on a mission.
Dont care about any red flags u mentioned...i want those all..
interesting how you had the same line up almost of Adonis and all of the positives, but didn't mention with him about how you wouldn't change a thing because he overcame so much, but with Bond you ended it as a positive and used Bruce Waynes life as a positive as well. How does Adonis's life differ than Bruce Waynes according to your breakdown? I don't see any of the ending on a positive notes with black people. Interesting indeed
He's a spy and an assassin. Of course he's a psychopath.
Did you edit the video as the scene where Bond sits with Vesper in the shower scene showing affection was argument against him being a psycho is not shown.
James Bond is a man with strong self esteem. He is not narcissistic or a psychopath. Bond understands himself and his role. Bond only kills when necessary. Bond's ability to dissociate is what keeps him sane although he does use alcohol and drugs. This has been displayed throughout the books and movies.
Bond is a Sociopath the difference between the two is ( a psychopath knows that what he is about to do is wrong but dose it anyway). (A sociopath never considers whether they are about to do wrong as for them there is no wrong). I know I am one.

Ummm, yeah. "Justifying your Major." Ok. But please bear in mind. James Bond is a fictional character. James Bond is not real. Now, if you ever decide to "Do" Ian Flemming...
Why did they give Craig such an ugly hairstyle?
I hope you kept the receipts if you studied psychology… painfully misusing terms. You’ve clearly no idea how diagnosis works or the ICD-10 - from a psychologist and therapist.
Yaap.. To U..
Ask my rest of d frnds.. They feel I'm funny!
What rubbish. I stopped watching after about 2 minutes. James Bond is not a psychopath. He is a loyal member of His Majesty’s Secret Service, employing whatever skills and talents he has to meet his mission’s objectives.
Ok, are you or have you ever been a member of the military?. At its basic core, once you set aside all other aspects like diplomatic relations, soft power emphasis, humanitarian support, etc,… the main purpose of any and all militaries are to “close with and destroy the enemy”, which means that at the very heart of the matter all military members are killers. That is what they are trained for. That is what they get paid for. That is thier purpose in life - to kill other people who are intent on doing damage or death on members of your country before they can deal that damage or death. I’ve spent nearly thirty years in the military and have had multiple commands and have been in combat multiple times and that is the ethos I have lived by every second of every day of my career - your purpose is to break the enemies’ will to do what they want to you and if you cannot break thier will to do it then you kill them before they do it. Does that make me, and every other person in uniform a psychopath? No! Not at all. We do what we do under specific legal and governmental criteria and we follow both the associated constraints and restraints, including international law. We do what our jobs are for the interests of our counties, and that is our sworn duty. As a career naval officer, James Bond is no different. He has dedicated himself to his duty and does what he does for his country and the people of his country. Is what he does different and unique from what most people would consider a “normal” life and a “normal” career - yes, but that doesn’t mean he is a psychopath. I am capable of crying my eyes out for the pain and suffering of innocent people, and at any given sad movie, but I am also capable of never, ever thinking of those who tried to kill me but who I killed first ever again. Does that make me a psychopath? No! It just means I am good at my job and I can “file” my job and my job experiences into a certain folder, separate form all other aspects my life. That is what every successful member of the military does every day, and as, first and foremost, a naval officer, what James Bind does (fictionally, but reflective of reality) does every day,
这个bond 完全不行，吸引女性是角色需要而已
No. Don't even bother to watch the video. After 30 seconds I stopped. He isn't. No one who cares about his handler as much as bond cares about M could possibly be a psychopath.
Too much psychobabble. The mission is what matters in that line of work and little else. M's lecture is a go at the pussification of maleness -- and the reason that this franchise is in jeopardy.
You constantly harp on the fact that Bond "lacks concern, regret or remorse about other people's distress." What "OTHER PEOPLE" are you talking about?" Dominic Greene's kids? Mr. White's grandmothers? LeChiffre's ex-wives? I've watched every single 007 movie at least a half dozen times each in my 62+ years, and I cannot remember him ruthlessly mowing down an innocent bystander who was in his way. Respectfully I simply have no idea whatsoever where youi are coming from with this. Maybe you are thinking about the families of the "technicians" that worked inside the mountain in Thunderball or on the Leparus in Moonraker... Naw, too much of a stretch they knew who they were working for.
You have totally missed the point on Narcissism. He did most of things for his job/profession. He had the integrity for his country and never flinched to throw himself in the face of danger. What you have done is a pointless exercise where you have no explicit examples for your conclusions. I only hope you have a degree in psychology at least.
This is nonsense
Winning is all that matters.
