In all honesty I can only see a handful of them being title worthy, especially with he titles of the latest Bond movies. I like Blood and Thunder, The Shadower and A Whisper Of Love, A Whisper Of Hate.
The thing that most have in common is that they are descriptive of the chapter they title, so they wouldn't translate to an unrelated film. Anything Fleming is welcome though, it always special to have some Fleming on screen.
Thanks for writing all those titles by the way @Revelator
'Death Is So Permanent' is a tad on the nose, but so is 'Death Is Forever' and I like that last one more.
'The Job Comes Second' would be a great one if Bond tries to shuffle priorities between Madeleine and MI6/Felix.
Since this year is OHMSS's 50th anniversary (and all the nods given to that film in SP), and also because Queen Elizabeth might not be with us anymore when Bond 26 rolls around (but let's hope that's not the case), I think this film might be the right time to reference Her Majesty again.
How about 'For Queen and Country'? Or 'By Royal Command'?
I like it.
In fact, it would have been a terrific alternative title for Skyfall.
In terms of the title treatment and logo, I'm really digging the style for the big clothes brand. The simple red font looks great:
Can anyone make something based off 'Sweet Nightmares' inspired from the above?
I’m starting to think it’s a definite possibility.
They'll come up with something.
or
UNDER A BAD SIGN
from the unused song lyrics of Monty Norman's James Bond theme.
B O O M _ S H O T _ M I S S
is very, very catchy. Title contender.
and from Monty, no less. I like it.
I wish. I have this bad feeling we won’t get a Fleming title, but I would love to see Risico or The Property of a Lady.
Or
Bomboclot
(no reason, just love the sound of this very old Jamaican cuss)
What about something with Jamaica in the title?
Return to Jamaica
No rest for the wicked
The Devil's Hands
it's a fairly generic and lazy title. But I don't despise it. But it's pretty interchangeable.
Though the title would suggest that Bond is perhaps on his final assignment and is no longer looking for a reason to live. When you google that you get a lot of suicide prevention websites. Maybe Bond's mental health is about to suffer. Perhaps hinting at rumours that this is Daniel and Bond's last mission.
Why not go for:
THE FINAL ASSIGNMENT
Personally, I'm quite infatuated with ONCE UPON A SPY as it makes the same thematic point. Though I have suggested that title to people in real life and they have made audible groans and visibly cringed.
I suspect that Fukunaga and Eon may be speaking to songwriters and asking them for titles they could write something about. I reckon they should just get Alex Turner to read the script and come up with a title, he's terrific at naming things.
Totally agree. Awful title. They should get PWB to come up with one.
still better than "eclipse" ... but weaker than "shatterhand" imo !
But sure they can do better.
