Whelp, it's official. Furiosa was expected to rake in 40 - 45 million over the 4 day memorial weekend, and it looks like it's going to be closer to 31 - 33 million. Movies simply aren't doing great right now, and along with IF and The Fall Guy it's …

I just don't jive with the idea of Bond undermining Ms authority like he does in B25. Bond can convince M, he can have him take pity, and reluctantly go along with his agents wishes despite his own reservations. But he doesn't crumble to bonds deman…

It's all a result of having hired Judi Dench and Ralph Fiennes and wanting to give them something to sink their teeth into. I very much doubt if we went back to a more standard, "here's your mission, get on with it" figure you would really lose much…

Honestly if they are planning on a loose adaptation of moonraker and the usual suspects are all tied down with their own projects they should bring back Martin Campbell. The man has proven he can launch a new Bond twice over, and he knows how to han…

Bond died in the last film, they have to become more lighthearted almost by default. This bond lost the love of his life, his best friend, his boss, another friend, he had everything stripped from him. To not explore some lighter territory with t…

I couldn't care less if Bond 26 is delayed to 2027, as long as the movie is spectacular and a inventive, daring fusion of classic bond elements in a modern setting that breathes new life into the series. The most important thing is the movie finds t…

It doesn't personally matter to me if we have to wait until 2027 but the fact is its reaching the point now where if November 2026 is the release date, we SHOULD know something very soon. We're running out of time, IF 2026 is the date. In other n…

Ever since @benny suggested brad bird a little while ago I can't help keep thinking about how that could really work. From the incredibles to mission impossible, he's been pivotal to some of the best film experiences I've had in my life. Assuming he…

I wonder how much EON are actively working on Bond 26 right now, or if not what they are waiting on. Is it still the difficulties between EON and Amazon being worked out? Internal shake ups happening inside EON? Waiting for the industry to settle af…

When you see the villains pull up along side bond, and roger gives the smile, that's just rog being rog. When Peirce skips across the road in hamburg in TND that's Peirce being Peirce, it's effortless. When Dalton says "I got the message" with that …

I see what you chaps are saying. What I mean is that bond actors tend to truly make the role their own when they stop playing a role, and just portray a version of themselves onscreen. I will say that as much as I dislike Bond 25, I did think when C…

The main selling point for Turner isn't his looks, although that doesn't hurt matters. If they are looking for a genuine change of course after Craig, someone as laid back and jovial as Turner seems like a strong place to start. I've never seen an i…
