    It's a nice topic idea. Regarding your own pitch, I like the return of the Moore/Hedison pair as well as the casting of Laurence Olivier as M, even if I am quite disturbed by the blend of actors from different periods (Yelchin and Hinds meeting Hepburn for exemple).

    For my part, I find this thread very inspiring. Immediately, I would be tempted to pitch a second movie with Lazenby, a Bond 17 with Dalton, or even a hypothetical future Bond movie. I will however limit myself with a period piece, starring Connery.

    Casino Royale
    Directed by Carol Reed
    Based on Ben Hecht's screenplay
    Music by Franz Waxman

    Starring:
    Sean Connery as James Bond
    Charlotte Rampling as Vesper Lynd
    Robert Morley as Le Chiffre
    Alida Valli as Gita, Le Chiffre's wife
    Kerwin Mathews as Felix Leiter
    Bernard Lee as M

    After joint MI6 and CIA investigation dismantles sexpionage network aimed at blackmailing UN diplomats in New York, James Bond is sent to Hamburg to destroy compromising information kept against these officials. The mastermind behind these operations, Le Chiffre loses the money invested by the organization employing him.

    Broken, Le Chiffre has no choice but to go to the casino of Royale-les-Eaux in an attempt to replace his lost funds. Enjoying a holiday on the French Riviera, Bond is sent with fellow agent Vesper Lynd to the Casino Royale to bankrupt him once and for all. But upon their arrival, they are the object of several assassination attempts.

    Location: New York City, Hamburg, Royale-les-Eaux, French Riviera, London.

    As in the novel, Le Chiffre's scheme is to recover a large sum of money for his organization after losing it in an operation involving prostitues (here used to blackmail UN officials). The organization employing him in this version is SPECTRE, as in Hecht's script.

    Running time: 120 minutes.
    For the title song, I would be inclined to go with "The Look of Love" by Dusty Springfield, since the 1967 spoof wouldn't exist in this timeline.

    Both great ideas. @Herr_Stockmann, I've always thought how cool a Connery version of Casino Royale would be.

    For my part, I'm basically just going to pitch my idea for the next James Bond film, although originally I just had a cast and not really anything else - but we'll see what I can come up with.

    New Dawn
    Directed by Denis Villeneuve
    Written by John Logan
    Music by Daniel Pemberton

    Cinematography by Greig Fraser
    Editing by Stuart Baird

    Title Song: "New Dawn" by Florence Welch
    Running Time: 165 minutes

    Starring
    Callum Turner as James Bond
    Lennie James as M
    Daniel Bruhl as Lucas Miguel
    Sonoya Mizuno as Nomura
    Angela Sarafyan as Delphine
    Joel Edgerton as Felix Leiter
    Vanessa Kirby as Moneypenny
    Riz Ahmed as Q

    Synopsis: The film is an re-introduction of Bond, but is not an origin story. After the death of 008, James Bond (007) is sent to investigate a series of terrorist attacks occurring around the globe which leads him from the mountaintops of Iceland to the rainforest of the Amazon, where he meets a former freelance assassin who plans to financially benefit from the murder of world leaders. A basic plot but I'm more about the cast with this one.

    Locations : London, UK/Tokyo, Japan/Vatnajökull, Iceland/Amazon, Brazil

  • After having recently reread the Michael Wilson & Alfonso Ruggiero’s treatment for Bond 17, I wanted to pitch my own take on a third Dalton Bond film, trying to keep elements from the project as it was thought at the time by Eon, while linking it to the global affairs of this period. In my mind, such installment would have gone into production in 1990, shortly before the series came to a standstill due to legal issues, allowing it nevertheless to be released in November 1991, before Gorbachev's resignation.


    Reunion with a Spy
    Directed by John Frankenheimer (The Holcroft Covenant, 1985)
    Music by David Mansfield (Year of the Dragon, 1985)
    Cinematography by Jan de Bont (Black Rain, 1989)

    Timothy Dalton as James Bond

    Polly Walker as Anastasia Stepkova
    John Lone as Colonel Han Liang-tan
    Ian Richardson as Sir Denholm Crisp
    Tamlyn Tomita as Keiko Tanaka, the head of Japanese secret service and daughter of Tiger Tanaka.
    John Rhys-Davies as General Leonid Pushkin

    Robert Brown as M
    Caroline Bliss as Miss Moneypenny
    Desmond Llewelyn as Q

    On mission in Tokyo to investigate the obtaining of British confidential documents by the local criminal underworld, Bond learns that these state secrets were sold by the once influential British diplomat Sir Denholm Crisp, believed to have defected to the East in the early 80s. Uncovered, Bond ends up on the run but an unexpected help comes from KGB agent Anastasia Stepkova.

    Despite the mutual mistrust, the two agents decide to make an alliance when they realize that they are both after Crisp, who is taking advantage of the dissolution of the USSR to sell the state secrets he accumulated for decades in England and USSR. However, they discover that the former diplomat is just a pawn in a larger plot led by renegade Chinese Colonel Han Liang-tan.

    Driven by a nostalgia for Imperial China, Colonel Han plans to overthrow the mainland Chinese regime and restore the 19th Century borders from before the unequal treaties. In addition to reclaiming Soviet territories and Hong Kong, Han would make Japan a country under Chinese influence, supported by some local crimelords to whom he promised the administration of Japan.

    Locations: Tokyo, Japan; British Hong Kong; Vladivostok, USSR.

    The title song would be performed by Annie Lennox.

    I always have two versions of 007 in New York in mind with how Daniel Craig movies develop. But i think a version with new actor with basics can stil be made.

    I always liked to see the movie using element of The Spy Who Loved Me that can be used and it be two parter that contuned in The Hildebrand Rarity. Hildebrand a death chacter who been seen minimal in flashbacks. Mr S who escape at the end of 007 in New York in litle boat chase by CIA (Bond already been back in London) in front of the back of the lady (Statue of liberty from side of her right hand) after his wife Miss V kild her self and Mr S set there hotel in fire.

    Of course It always be in mind with MGM stil making movie with Sony because logo of Statue of liberty is playing inportent factor in it. The movie end after the fire who was quike followed by the litle boat chase with fade out of her back with her right hand, blue air with clouds and James Bond will return in The Hildebrand Rarity. With Bond, Felix and the audince in doubt.

    In The Hildebrand Rarity connection with Daniel Craig era Vesper, Mathis, Dench M return. When in Spectre there hint to Hildebrand i think he should have been played by Belgium actor Matthias Schoenaerts. Mabey stil like to see that.

    In second version James Bond was biggest first part not seen in the movie and 009 replaced him and take his 007 id. Based on that always play with idea for let Bond losing his number and movie start with As Ian Fleming James Bond. And later also 007 steel his car in Spectre. But plot be same exept it starts of with 009 who discover the terrible truth and later real 007 and he work together.

    Cast:

    Laurent Capelluto as Mr. S
    Susan Egan as Miss V
    Jeffrey Wright Felix Leiter

    Sean Patrick Reilly
    Leelee Sobieski

    Nadia Farès as Receptionist in 007 in New York. In later idea as Police Agent in opening of Bond 25 with Ralph Fienes as M and Q visit 'l American with tired Bond and Vesper video.

    Elena Beuca as Russian Guest
    Anne Consigny as French Guest
    Sallie Harmsen as Dutch Guest

    Diamonds Are Forever

    Directed by Peter Hunt
    Based on Richard Maibuam screenplay
    Music by John Barry

    Starring:
    George Lazenby as James Bond
    Lorraine Gary as Tiffany Case
    Telly Savalas Blofeld
    Dominic Chianese and Richard Conte as The Spang Brothers
    David Hedison as Felix Leiter
    Bernard Lee as M
    A slight cheat, perhaps, but the actual DAF film is so disappointing I felt I had to do this!

    Bond hunts Blofeld down for the murder of Tracy, and gets a tip from M regarding a Diamond smuggling operation from Las Vegas, involving The Spang Brothers and Tiffany Case.

    After finding out that a hiding Blofeld is using the Mafia and Diamonds to re-assert his power in the criminal underworld, Bond journeys to South Africa to finish off his arch nemesis once and for all...

    Location: London, Las Vegas, The Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, South Africa.

    More akin to the DAF novel, but with less Tiffany, as Bond is far less interested in romance than usual. Bond kills the Spang Brothers around the 90 minute mark, then journeys to South Africa. The final 30 minutes are essentially the 'Garden Of Death' and the death of Blofeld from YOLT, minus the castle (insert Diamond mine, or some other such hideout).

    Running time: 120 minutes.
    I shall keep the title song exactly as it was from the film, can't top Shirley Bassey.

    That's quite an interesting take on Fleming's novel, and a clever way to link the main storyline to Bond's quest for revenge, creating as such a follow-up to OHMSS. While one might wonder why Blofeld would have built an equivalent of the Garden of Death in a mine, the concept itself is smart.

    To add Blofeld late in the story, no matter what novel as adapt as long as it serves a sequel to OHMSS and as opposed to the actual DAF movie, would have been the direction I would also have taken when thinking about a second Lazenby Bond (although I always imagined TMWTGG to be the book to draw from).

    Thanks, that's what I was going for.

    Interestingly enough, TMWTGG is the only other Bond film apart from Diamonds in what I would class, as the 'Golden Era' of Bond (DN-TSWLM) that I would change a lot of, given the choice.

    Yes, I think it's just so obvious to have made Scaramanga's plan an actual assassination. He's the world's greatest assassin- why isn't the film about that?! It's so weird.
    Was Day of the Jackal about the Jackal trying to build a solar energy plant? Don't think so! :)

    I really like the idea of getting Anders to draw Bond into it by pretending that Scaramanga is targetting him, but from there have it some sort of plot where Scaramanga is planning to kill the President of Russia or something, and Bond has to uncover it. Maybe he even frames Bond as the would-be assassin so Bond is forced to go on the run from everyone. Perhaps he convinces people to think Bond is actually the man with the golden gun and Scaramanga is just a character he invented (in this you could pay a bit of homage to that bit in the book where Bond tries to kill M which I know folks are keen on). Or make Scaramanga's obsession with him into a bigger game: he makes Bond duel with him with a world leader's life at stake.

    Forever and a Day-Take the time to plan it right. Have Gregg Wilson team up with Barbara Broccoli, with Michael G. Wilson in Cubby's place on GE. Update the story to present day. Have Anthony Horowitz cowrite the screenplay with someone(s) new. No Purvis and Wade! New James Bond, new screenwriters! Get a director who will be true both to the novel and the character of James Bond. Cast an unknown as James Bond, akin to Sean Connery or George Lazenby. Cast a big name actress as Madame Sixtine, I was thinking Gal Gadot. Take Diana Rigg in OHMSS as an example. No Scarlett Johansson or Jennifer Lawrence! Keep Ralph Fiennes as M, recast Moneypenny and Tanner. Hold of on Q, as he isn't in Horowitz's text. Take CR as an example. I think it would be time to bring in May (Bond's housekeeper) for the series, I was thinking Felicity Jones. As for the 007 that is killed in the beginning, I'd have it be Alec Trevelyan. His abandonment and stealing of his 00 number would help setup future stories. The casting can be used for long term planning. Keep it fresh, with ensemble casts of reoccurring characters is my goal (due to my acting background and James Bond fanboyness).

    Name: Once Upon A Spy
    Director: Josh and Benny Safdie
    Cinematography: Matthew Libatique
    Music: Oneohtrix Point Never
    Title Song: Lana Del Rey
    Running Time: 150 minutes

    Plot: A new James Bond origin-story where we see him become 007 in the final scene. Here, James Bond is depicted as a wayward special-forces operative who is tasked by British Intelligence to find a notorious killer. The man being hunted has killed the head of Bond's SAS outfit after a failed rescue mission in Sierra Leone (this would be the pre-title sequence). Later, Bond is implicated in the murder and has to clear his name, find the culprit and avert the end of the world.

    Locations: Sierra Leone, France, Japan, London

    Bond: Robert Pattinson

    robert-pattinson-batman-2.jpg

    Villain: Mahershala Ali

    mahershala-ali-burn.jpg?w=1000

    Female Lead: Shiori Kutsuna

    DCLAIgjUIAEWLwe.jpg

    Henchwoman: Eiza González

    eiza-gonzalez-alita-battle-angel.jpg

    M: Tilda Swinton
    Q: Ben Whishaw (Reboot the character as they did with Judi Dench in CR but keep the actor)
    Corrupt Whitehall Official: Rachel Weisz
  • It's interesting to see that both of you, @MaxCasino and @Pierce2Daniel, pitched to reboot the series with a new origin story. Although I don't think it would be necessary for Eon to do so, it's quite refreshing to read two such different takes based on a same basis.

    From a narrative point of view, I must say I'm more tempted by a rewrite of what Horowitz proposed (Bond being tasked with completing his late predecessor's mission, meets a femme fatale who teaches him how to become the spy we all know), while changing the locations and most of the investigation. If Gadot isn't a bad choice at all for the role of Sistine, I have to admit that I find it hard to see how she would be any closer to Diana Rigg than Scarlett Johansson as suggested.

    Regarding you own ideas @Pierce2Daniel , except for the plot itself, that over-convolutes Bond's promotion to 00 agent status, and the choice of Tilda Swinton as M, it's a quite sensational pitch. The Safdies would do wonders with locations like Sierra Leone and nighttime Japan, and this simple prospect is more seductive to me than any story. To see a female M again could be great and would definitely be something that I would be open to. And if I doubt that Eon would choose Pattinson anytime soon, he would still be a good choice, and one that would be well supported here given the quality of the rest of the cast. Also, using Peter Morgan's title is very pertinent for a Bond's origin story.

    I liked Sixtine but she seemed to have a bit too much impact on Bond: he got everything from his choice of cigarettes to the way he prefers his Martinis from her, with the strange result of the male character’s agency being removed for a change!
    If they had to do an origin story again it might be fun to show a circumstance where M decides to form the double Os in the first place.

    Operation Ruthless / Operation Ruthless: Save Our Souls

    Operation-Ruthless.jpg

    Story is already used by Bruce Feirstein for element in Tomorrow Never Dies. Save Our Souls i think about as subtitle with movie be prequel of Spectre. Playing between Skyfall and Spectre. Together all movies are: S.O.S from first letters of all three movies. What means help and Save Our Souls. Operation Ruthless title i like to be used as alternate title of The World Is Not Enough who can't be used any more.

    Later i thinking more to use Operation Ruthless Part 1 and Operation Ruthless Part 2 as work titles for Property Of Lady and The Hildebrand Rarity. As Bond 25 and Bond 26. Released on 4 May 2018 (4 -5!) and December 2019. MGM making the movie with Sony and Universal. Return of Dominic Greene (Quantum),Camile, Oberhauser/Blofeld (Spectre) and Felix (Return from Quantum Of Solace). Daniel Craig will return Twice.

The hide place of Monica Bellucci chacter from Spectre wil be discoverd and she wil be taken before the words: To be contuned in The Hildebrand Rarity.

    Bond 26 wil start with MGM logo, the Universal logo but then that logo changed in something that is driving and dots moving search and then it shoots you. You discover it is not barrel of gun. Mabey first Bond movie since Dr No without pretitle. Mabey no title song or Adele.

    It contuned the lack of story that Casino Royale start off. Bond meets Madeline her mother. It turn out that we / Bond already meet her once in Skyfall.

    Mi6 need new place and (To qoute Goldeneye): When the world is the target.. all help there need from CIA to beat Spectre and Quantum! and Save Our Souls (Solace).

    After MGM logo, the Universal logo in to the gunbarrel Bond 25 The Property Of Lady starts of with Q be at L'American with M and Police agent and ill James Bond, a lot of mess and Vesper video. The hide place of Monica Bellucci chacter from Spectre wil be discoverd and she wil be taken before the words: To be contuned in The Hildebrand Rarity.

    Bond 26 wil start with MGM logo, the Universal logo but then that logo changed in something that is driving and dots moving search and then it shoots you. You discover it is not barrel of gun. Mabey first Bond movie since Dr No without pretitle. Mabey no title song or Adele.

    More akin to the DAF novel, but with less Tiffany. Bond kills the Spang Brothers around the 90 minute mark, then journeys to South Africa. The final 30 minutes are essentially the 'Garden Of Death' and the death of Blofeld from YOLT, minus the castle (insert Diamond mine, or some other such hideout).
    That's quite an interesting take on Fleming's novel, and a clever way to link the main storyline to Bond's quest for revenge, creating as such a follow-up to OHMSS. While one might wonder why Blofeld would have built an equivalent of the Garden of Death in a mine, the concept itself is smart.

    To add Blofeld late in the story, no matter what novel as adapt as long as it serves a sequel to OHMSS and as opposed to the actual DAF movie, would have been the direction I would also have taken when thinking about a second Lazenby Bond (although I always imagined TMWTGG to be the book to draw from).

    Thanks, that's what I was going for.

    Interestingly enough, TMWTGG is the only other Bond film apart from Diamonds in what I would class, as the 'Golden Era' of Bond (DN-TSWLM) that I would change a lot of, given the choice.

    Yes, I think it's just so obvious to have made Scaramanga's plan an actual assassination. He's the world's greatest assassin- why isn't the film about that?! It's so weird.
    Was Day of the Jackal about the Jackal trying to build a solar energy plant? Don't think so! :)

    I really like the idea of getting Anders to draw Bond into it by pretending that Scaramanga is targetting him, but from there have it some sort of plot where Scaramanga is planning to kill the President of Russia or something, and Bond has to uncover it. Maybe he even frames Bond as the would-be assassin so Bond is forced to go on the run from everyone. Perhaps he convinces people to think Bond is actually the man with the golden gun and Scaramanga is just a character he invented (in this you could pay a bit of homage to that bit in the book where Bond tries to kill M which I know folks are keen on). Or make Scaramanga's obsession with him into a bigger game: he makes Bond duel with him with a world leader's life at stake.

    This would have been far better than any of the nonsense of the Solex Agitator

    The Solex stuff is so strange, it almost feels like it's just there so that Scaramanga could have a big underground set, because that's what Bond villains have.

    It just about starts to make sense when you see he's built a giant gun with it: if they'd at least had him planning to actually shoot something with it that might have been a decent plot for a film called The Man With The Golden Gun! :)

    Indeed. Incidentally, is there a thread where us Bond fans attempt to improve on the lesser Bond films with our own ideas? I'm sure I have seen one before (I may have even posted on it) but for the life of me I can't remember.

    DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER
    Director: Peter Hunt
    Cinematography: Michael Reed
    Music: John Barry
    Title Song: Diana Ross
    Running Time: 125 min

    Locations: London, Amsterdam, New York, Last Vegas, Sierra Leone

    James Bond: Michael Billington
    Tiffany Case: Leigh Taylor-Young
    Seraffimo Spang aka Rufus B. Saye: Robert Wagner
    Felix Leiter: Lyle Waggoner
    Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd: Bruce Glover and Putter Smith

    In this timeline, George Lazenby’s resignation did not lead to Sean Connery’s return, the actor refusing to come back; nor to an early debut for Roger Moore, too busy filming The Persuaders!. Not convinced by the prospect of an American actor in the role, despite approaching John Gavin, Saltzman and Broccoli ultimately chose TV actor Michael Billington to take up the mantle. In the meantime, DAF lost his director when Guy Hamilton went to work on An Expensive Place to Die, the fourth installment in the Harry Palmer series. Despite hesitation, Eon eventually brought back Peter Hunt, asking him to take inspiration from Goldfinger and to not link this new installment to OHMSS.

    Back in London after a PTS set in Egypt, Bond learns accidents in diamond mines have recently increased, raising the price of diamonds on world markets. His mission is to infiltrate a smuggling ring seemingly linked to the House of Diamonds, an American jeweler recently bought by a crime syndicate lead by the enigmatic and reclusive Seraffimo Spano. After visiting the jeweler and meeting its to all appearances respectable head Rufus B. Saye, Bond takes the identity of smuggler Peter Franks to meet in Amsterdam his contact, Tiffany Case, with whom he travels to New York.

    After killing the real Franks who showed up on the way, Bond is taken to the House of Diamonds branch in Manhattan where he is introduced to Shady Tree. After sabotaging a rigged race where he was instructed to bet to be paid for the smuggling job, Bond is instructed by Tree to travel to Las Vegas to gamble at the Tiara Hotel.

    In Last Vegas, Bond goes to the Tiara Hotel where Tiffany Case has been brought in to deal the rigged games for the payoff. Realizing that he can’t infiltrate the mob, Bond convinces Tiffany to help him and decides to draw attention to himself by gambling without limit. It works as henchmen try to intimidate and then to kill him, prompting a car chase at one point. Captured, Bond is taken to an old ghost town where he is discover that Seraffimo Spang and Rufus B. Saye are one and only person. Far from a London jeweler, Spang is nonetheless as obsessed with the Wild West as he is with diamonds. He confirmed being behind the mine accidents, to indeed raise the price of diamonds on markets in order to increase the value of his personal stocks. Tied to the rails to be run over by a 1870s locomotive, Bond is saved by Tiffany and, after destroying the ghost town, both espace, despite being persuaded by Spang’s train.

    A week later, Bond and Tiffany arrive in Sierra Leone where Spang intends to destroy his own mine to cover his tracks and once again increase the value of his diamonds. A pursuit ensues in the mine, leading to a fight, concluding with Spang falling to his death. The film ends with Bond and Tiffany heading for Britain on a cruise ship, where Wint and Kidd attempt to kill them. Their ruse is exposed and Bond kills them both before spending a romantic evening.

    Really nice stuff @Herr_Stockmann, especially as Diamonds are Forever is probably my least favourite entry into the franchise, even though the novel itself has really interesting elements, and you've used them well. The only element I would've like to have seen kept from the novel is Jack Spang, even if he was utilised more as a henchman. I've just always found the concept of brothers as villains to be really interesting. I remember thinking Dominic Greene and Elvis were related, and I was really into the idea of Safin and Primo being related before we saw the film, and found out that wasn't true.

    Title: “Guardian of the Order”

    Director: Sam Mendes

    Producers: Barbara Broccoli, Michael G Wilson

    Screenplay By: Christopher Wood, John Logan, Neal Pervis, Robert Wade, Myself (Creative Input)

    Music: Thomas Newman

    Cinematography: Roger Deakins

    Edited By: Stuart Baird


    Cast:
    James Bond: Tom Ellis (Lucifer)
    Kincaid: Albert Finney
    M: Ralph Fiennes
    Moneypenny: Suranne Jones
    Yanis Zaidi: Ben Youcef
    Cara Buckley: Emma Stone (possibly)

    Running Time: 140 Mins

    Film Locations: England, Scotland, Falkland Islands, Malta, Gibraltar

    Plot Synopsis: Bond decides to rebuild his ancestral home (ode to Skyfall) while taking a short vacation to recover from an old injury to his shoulder that he is downplaying. After what seems to be an unrelated attempt on Bond’s life in Scotland and furthering his injury he is ordered to the Falklands after surgery on his shoulder to rehabilitate where he is again pursued. Meanwhile the High Commissioner to Malta, member of the Royal Family, member and Knight of the Order of St Michael and St George who was next in line to become King of Arms in the Order, and personal friend of James Bond was assassinated in Gibraltar while on a diplomatic trip to meet with the Governor of Gibraltar to discuss policing trade routes through the straights. A media leak has indicated that a terrorist group originating out of Tripoli has taken responsibility. The Royal Navy has moved in to the Mediterranean in a massive show of force. Bond has completed his evaluation and has been returned to duty and is dispatched to Malta to begin the investigation. He later concludes that the terrorist group is led by Yanis Zaidi a half Algerian half Libyan by birth whose family was killed during a bombing run by the Royal Airforce during the First Libyan Civil War. While in Malta, Bond crosses paths with an American CIA agent Cara Buckley who is also investigating the incident based on the US incident in Benghazi during that time period. Currently the whereabouts of Yanis have been pinpointed to Mdina on Malta where a large scale attack is being planned down to the detail that could cause the Straights of Gibraltar to turn into a war zone and halt trade in the entire region.

    Main Villain plan: Disrupt the world economy by destabilizing the trade routes in the Mediterranean Sea. Simultaneously delivering a blow to the Crown by killing a relative to the royal family to aid in the destabilization of the region, as well as revenge for a family member’s death. Manipulation of this villain as well as a hidden agenda for the region have not been identified along with the villain’s financier.

    Secondary story: (I posted this in another thread) KenAustin wrote: »
    Wouldn't it be interesting to learn in the next Bond film (maybe called "Unleashed") that Bond finds out that (the Judi Dench) M, was actually his real mother Monique whom went under an alias as M after a terrorist group targeted her and her Husband Andrew for extermination under the guise of an accident, but she actually survived and selecting the maladjusted orphan wasn't quite the actual story. Now he finds out the truth and goes off the rails to find and systematically eliminate the terrorist organization that had funded and guided behind the scenes the former agent he killed in Skyfall?

    Further...Q fires up his computer over his usual Earl Grey and 007's vital signs start beeping....and later we find out that the concussion from the missiles that hit the island in NTTD blew him out to sea like Goodspeed in The Rock, and when Bond wakes up in a hospital bed with a clean bill of health to find Q and M standing over his bed we learn that the smart blood nanobots that were injected in him in SP somehow counteracted the ones in the virus that he contracted in NTTD...not only does he live but starts with a clean slate

    Brilliant ! However, having Helen Mirren as M just would be TOO distracting. One is not supposed to want to have a long, wonderful and passionate affair with M !!!

    By the way - you could set your film in 2022 with the same cast...and I'd still have the same comment about Helen Mirren as M !
