Bond 26: Double-take pigeon’s triumphant return?

Dennis Villeneuve could pull off the funniest Bond cameo imaginable. Why not bring back the double-take pigeon from Moonraker for Bond 26?

Yes, the scene was completely contrived, with the movie stopping to show everyone’s reaction to Bond commandeering a gondola on wheels including this rodent with wings. But that little bird has somehow become one of the most memorable pieces of Bond absurdity.

The perfect return would be simple: a quick shot of the pigeon reacting to Bond causing another public spectacle. It’d be a hilarious nod to fans and easily a top highlight of Bond 26 regardless of the rest of the movie. As Blofeld and a pigeon would say: “coo coo!”
