    We’re getting a lot of car chases if all the rumors are to be believed - that would bring us up to one in the PTS in Matera, one in Cuba, and one on the Atlantic Ocean Road - at least 3!

    EDIT: Unless the one in Cuba was supposed to be an on-foot chase?
    Yeah, I don't recall ever hearing about a car chase in Cuba.
    Yeah, I'm getting more of a CR opening foot chase feeling from that one.

    That's not going to happen with Craig's ligaments still not totally back to normal.

    It can be foot chase with Paloma or Nomi. Or CIA agents Felix and character played by Billy Magnussen.

    Hey @peter . It’s always interesting to hear your speculation. Can you hint at any of this being based on behind the scenes tidbits you may have been privy to?

    Hi @TR007! -- no, pure guessing on my part. Hearing how CJF's first Bond film was AVTAK, I wonder if he's taken a cue from it: Bond is missing, and they're all "presuming the worst"...

    I could see a similar scene done for B25. After a climactic blowout between Bond and Malek's character (and, yes please to the strangulation a la YOLT!), Bond's body hasn't been recovered. He's presumed dead.

    Until the final scene where he meets Nomi, stepping out of the shadows to pass the torch to her in some capacity. However, before slipping into the shadows, he tells her, "I'll be back soon enough", and then he's gone.

    Cue the Bond theme with the words, James Bond Will Return...

    I think it'll pan out like this:
    - After defeating the villain, Bond is missing, presumed dead
    - Scotland: a ceremony with M, Q and other mourners in his ancestoral homeland to mark his sacrifice. Fade out.
    - Fade in. Somewhere far away. A hint to show our man is still alive. Next film, cue new guy.
    Just when I was starting to regain confidence in this film...

    Felix and Billy chasing someone for Five minutes, exhausting themselves, gaining on the guy but not getting him. Then the guy wants to round a Corner of a Building, where Bond is waiting for him and knocks him off his feet with one Punch. Cue JB theme, title sequence.
    That would make me chuckle.

    Scotland will ruin this whole movie for you?

    Or what Shatterhand "speculates"?

    Feel like Craig would have to return for Bond 26 in that scenario.

    I think Craig, no matter the ending, is making this his final one. Obviously anything can happen, but returning for 26 is, I think, such a slim possibility that it’s almost non existent (unless they’re being sneaky and shot 25 n 26 together, lol)

    If Craig himself and producers have decided that this will be his last,
    one can assume that for the first time in James bond history this film will surely feel like a finale.

    Although they say that they haven’t given any thought as to the next Bond, I don’t think that is necessarily true. If there is an actor on their radar who is now at the right age , or nearing the upper limit of what they’re looking for , getting that actor in place may be a consideration.

    He'll play grandfather Bond who's telling his stories to James Bond III.

    I know right there is always someone on their radar.
    Although EON & Universal should start calling this film "finale" if they want to start market this film properly imo.

    They probably do have a few vague ideas who might be able to replace Craig. But honestly, Eon is slowing down. We're finally in production after a four year plus gap, and to date there is still no title for the current film. They are taking things slow and as they come. By that rationale, I imagine they will really take their time casting a new actor. But before that process can start, another film needs to be underway or at least in development. That could take years after this one is released.
    So I do believe Eon isn't looking at anyone to take over the mantle just yet.

    So I do believe Eon isn't looking at anyone to take over the mantle just yet.

    I think the slowing down has a lot to do with
    1) the current filmmaking climate, which is demanding, shuffling bigger budgets than ever thought conceivable and facing fierce Disney competition everywhere and everywhen;
    2) the Craig dichotomy: they feel like they absolutely need him and so they'll wait for him but he won't just make another Bond film until he's satisfied with what's going to be presented;
    3) the SF fluke: SF lifted a healthy series to something not seen in a very long time, which was simultaneously a blessing and a curse because, well, evidently now anything falling below this newly raised bar would be considered "poor performance".

    If, with an ounce of luck, the next actor doesn't weigh too heavily on the decision making and keeps himself available, and if the franchise contends itself with a stable performance record, never reaching for box office peaks but securing a lasting loyalty from fans and critics, we might return to a higher density of films during a single actor's tenure.

    I understand that AVTAK was CJF's first Bond film, but has he ever publicly stated that he thought it was an excellent Bond movie and his favourite out of the series? I don't know the answer. I'm just curious to know what his actual favourite Bond movies are.

    Ah I see. That's a really interesting theory. I wouldn't mind seeing that play out on the big screen, it would be a great way to end a Bond adventure.
