User blog:SW10048/PE Removal proposal: Auric Goldfinger

How has no-one done this?

Who is he?
Auric Goldfinger is the main antagonist of Goldfinger, the third film in the original James Bond series. He is a billionaire who plans to nuke Fort Knox in order to make his smuggled bullion the most valuable in the world.

Why shouldn't he qualify?
While Goldfinger does plan to gas loads of innocent people around Fort Knox then nuke the surrounding area, he still fails to surpass the basic heinous standards for 007 villains. Sure, he murders a few people, tries to kill Bond twice and plots a terrorist attack, but that's what basically every Bond villain does. Hell, Hugo Drax and Karl Stromberg were gonna kill the entire human race. Sure, he kills some gangsters because they were no longer useful, but Elliot Carver does that to. In fact, most Bond villains seem to be PE, despite the heinous standards rule. Killing henchmen for flimsy reasons is done all the time in Bond, and they all try to kill Bond and plot a massive terror attack. So, there appears to be serious abuse of heinous standards going on, judging them by the film not the series. So anyway, Goldfinger isn't PE because of heinous standards.
