No, they are Bond villains. It is not cosplay, they are the real deal.

Exactly, what is this "cosplaying" thing, as if they take off their villain costume at the end of the day and are only playing evil monsters the rest of the time?

Tomorrow Never Dies apparently was a warning not a movie.

The documentary with Pierce Brosnan?

Yessir. Michelle Yeoh also was a documentary subject.

Can we tax these guys already so I don't have to keep reading about them?

Is there a link to read this behind the paywall? Or am I the only one without a Bloomberg subscription?

I wonder who is Blofeld?

Dunno—are any of them particularly attached to white Persian cats? Or am I misremembering and it was some other Bond villain who had the cat?

Blofeld has the cat but i was referring more to his being bald.

All four of them in a trenchcoat, and yet still can’t have a fraction of the class and education and ambition that Blofeld had.
