Director Nick Fury - The Ultimate Spy?

I'm sure no one has asked this question before so please allow me. Is NICK FURY the greatest SPY who ever lived? Is he the ULTIMATE SPY? If so, why? And also is he what other spies wish to be?

I know. I can actually hear you scream-typing down at the comment section below that he doesn't even deserve to be in the contest  the same way a first grader doesn't. And as much as you think I'm biased towards Nick you are probably right. But I hate to pull rank. And also just hear me out before you judge my crazy theory.

I will answer those rhetorical questions later, but first let's look at some other spies we have seen over the years and establish a list of qualities and differences that they have between each other.

We all have heard of spies and have even watched SPY movies like JAMES BOND, MICHAEL WESTEN or, um, whichever movie you are thinking  of right now. Believe me I have greatly followed the 007 franchise: straight from the comedy-filled “classic era" of Roger Moore, Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan, down to the cold, heartless era of Daniel Craig.

Now JAMES BOND, or 007, is the TITLE of a very deadly, highly trained INTELLIGENCE officer in the 00 programme within the M.I.6 and the TITLE has been passed down from one 007 to another for over 40 years. He's highly skilled in penetrating hotspots and eliminating targets thanks to the LICENCE TO KILL. But this does not prevent him from cracking the occasional jokes with his enemies and giving women the night of their lives, right before he finds out they are part of the whole plot as well. We all know him so I am not going to dwell much on him. So let's move on.

MICHAEL WESTEN, former CIA operative, is the second spy we will look at. He is the best covert operative the CIA has ever produced. He has definitely been around the world making a name for himself as the CIA most dangerous SPY. The GRU knew him as the BOOGEYMAN as he always left a man alive to tell everyone because, well dah, DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES ain't that right JACK SPARROW? Oh, and not to sound like a know-it-all but that's common sense 101. Now as usual he makes enemies all around the world due to the covert nature of his activities. We are introduced to MICHAEL WESTEN in 2007, the year he got burned. He was framed by a SECRET organization that existed inside the CIA, the organization that burned spies in order to recruit them for rogue, unsanctioned missions. He was branded a very dangerous,  rogue CIA covert operative who had to be “eliminated”. But ultimately, after three years he finally tears down the organization that burned him, and all this cost him his mother, brother and his life as a free private citizen. Of all the spies that we are talking about here, he's the one who grew a conscious and preferred not to kill if he did or didn't have to.

 Now like MICHAEL WESTEN of the CIA, STERLING ARCHER of the INTERNATIONAL SECRET INTELLIGENCE SERVICE is also seen as the world's most dangerous SPY and trust me when I say that's not his doing. Of all the spies I can think of, this one jokes the most, and his mother, the lover to the head of the KGB, is actually the head of ISIS. How convenient you ask? Well, my answer to that rhetorical question is how convenient indeed. ARCHER gets the top missions from his Mom who is head of ISIS and somehow his luck gets in the way of the bad guys. I'm not denying the fact that he's good in close combat and with guns, it's like the villains of his time send unskilled thugs and hitman squads after him and the only thing they achieve at the end of the day is to shoot squat. In ARCHER’s mind the joke is on everyone in the world because of his never ending jokes about everyone besides himself but surprisingly that doesn't get him killed anywhere, even by his co-workers or his mother to say the least.

These spies have something in common: they work for one agency and they are known almost all over the world. However, NICK FURY doesn't just work for these two SPY agencies at the same time, SHIELD and X-PROGRAM, neither of each know the existence of the other nor have knowledge of his three lives. He also leads them. I know right? How in the world can he juggle two massive and high secretive spy agencies without either of them learning of the existence of the other? Does he have a twin? A double?

We will discuss the REALITY ABOUT MOVIES as a separate crazyfilm theory. But Long theory short, the least known spy in the world is the deadliest of them all. In other words, the spy with less movie/camera time is the least known spy of them all. So clearly BOND JAMES BOND, by this definition, is not the ultimate spy.

Firstly, let's discuss the fact that he heads two spy agencies, which are somehow oblivious of one's existence to the other.

 We first catch a glimpse of him in the X-Program at the turn of the 21st century. I honestly don't know when he was appointed the head of the X-Program nor how many agents were under his command. What I do know with absolute certainty is that he had one of their best agents at his command, XXX. Yes it's a title just like 007 James Bond. The agent's name was, is, Xander Cage. Most of you know him as Dominic Torreto but we are not gonna talk about his double life here. Spoiler alert: it's catching up to him.

Now, unlike the X-PROGRAM, the SHIELD is a more covert organization tasked with protecting the world from threats of unusual and unexplained origin. Up until 2014 he was the Director there before HYDRA rose from the shadows and nearly destroyed SHIELD from within.

If you need more information on the above agencies then you need to watch all the XXX movies and Marvel content from 2008 up until today.

So am I biased to announce that Nick, wherever he is, the winner of the Ultimate Spy contest? Let me know down in the comments below. And no, Agent 47 doesn't qualify to be in this contest because he is no spy.

See you on the next one.
