Awesome.
I agree. Trump is too incompetent to take down Bond.
You’re agreeing with something I did not say, nice try though.
TDS is strong in some here.
His followers certainly exhibit that.
That’s a personal attack, be very careful. Calling other posters deranged is beneath you.
We were managing to discuss this problem without things getting heated but I guess the discussion has to end now.
It’s not even necessarily where it’s shot that worries me as we’ve had Bond films shot in studios overseas before, but more the crew which have always been extremely talented, and I think there’s a strong chance of a number of them carrying over to this production as long as this issue doesn’t prevent that.
An inappropriate post by a moderator started this exchange; they should be “very careful “ .
Overwhelming, those here who begin inflammatory political and social exchanges fall on the so called progressive end of the spectrum; it’s getting very tiresome.
I agree - I think the production has already lost several key figures in the series (including Broccoli, Wilson, Debbie McWilliams, etc.) I’m sincerely hoping they don’t lose anymore because of this situation.
You don’t have to be progressive to dislike how Trump uses his powers as a world leader like a bully.
Joking of course ;)
Yeah tend to agree. Nothing against the place, I just prefer Bond specifically when he's elsewhere. Fleming seemed to be mildly fascinated by it but the films lose a bit of their unique flavour when they go there.
That's exactly right mate yeah. It's nothing against the place but in the film it just doesn't seem to gel when I watch it
I'm sure there are interesting places in America Bond could visit though. Maybe Hawaii? Although at that point I suppose they may as well go for somewhere a bit more exotic anyway.
Ultimately it depends on what they do. And America's a massive country at the end of the day. But it wouldn't be the first country I'd think of or expect for a Bond movie.
He looks too weird. He reminds me of Cillian Murphy
The same was said about Craig in 2005, though.
Yeah..we all remember that ;)
Not sure I'd put any money on him becoming the next Bond or anything, but I wouldn't discount it either. I actually haven't seen much of what he's in but from what I have he seems a good, up and coming actor, and he's definitely got that sense of masculinity and presence to him so I suppose I'll keep an eye out. I don't know either ulimately. At the moment I'd say it's definitely just one of those ATJ type rumours.
Also, I had to google what TDS is. If it came down to a choice of having TDS or being the village idiot, i'll take a dose of TDS.

And already it will have added uncertainty to the industry (an industry already going through a rough patch and which really didn't need it), so it's quite possible that we're looking at a longer delay. Anyone expecting this to go down well on a forum of Bond fans, or just fans of western movies in general, who are eager for the next film are on another planet. No derangement required, just a basic understanding of the situation.
Yeah, I think these are both fair points. Not to get too deep into politics (I'm not a fan of discussing it here - best stick to Bond) but the sense I get isn't that this forum is full of left wingers, and there's definitely potential downsides to this that will inevitably be discussed and critiqued, at least as it's relevant to Bond. Actually there's quite a spectrum of views here if anything (and yes, a lot who don't like Trump, but ultimately it's not illegal to dislike, criticise or even mock public figures here, even if some disagree or want to give counterpoints, which is fair too. It is what it is). I get the sense a good chunk of us aren't American perhaps? (and let's be honest, whatever one thinks of Trump I think it's fair to say he's less likely to be looked on as fondly by non-Americans for varying reasons, especially nowadays. Heck, he's controversial in his own country!)
