So 2040. Got it.
Link or speculation?
Virtually every scene in a Dune film has a visual effect in it; that’s not true for a Bond production.
Once a script is locked, there’s little doubt that a Bond could be produced in under 2 years, even a year or under.
Agreed it needs both.
Sure, Bond doesn't have as many as something like Dune (Part 2 had 2500), but NTTD still had nearly 1500 VFX shots in it.
Well, it depends on what they will be going for; something more grounded, like Casino Royale, would have a shorter post production
Yeah the work they did on it was amazing, proper seamless stuff.
It’ll be interesting to see what kind of production and post timelines they’ll budget for. Without a formal release date it’s all speculation, but a grounded film with little to no SFX , like the recent One Battle After Another had six months of principal and twelve months for post(!). And I’d wager that all Bond films moving forward will still have a ton of effects due to the action sequences alone.
No Bond until 2029.
Too optimistic. No Bond until 2049.
Bond Runner 2049 😎
Bond is a tentpole and they’ll give enough time for shooting and post (and yes, post is the whole shebang (editing, sound, adr, VFX, color correction…)). These producers will give the artist and his team time, but just enough of it.
A guess? 2028 is now a safe target. 2027 is a closing window with each day, and 2029 is too long. These guys want their crown jewel out there.
Huh? You’re reading into things a year and a half away that haven’t happened.
And actually, producers want their main IPs on a regular cycle, so, yeah, 2029 seems too long, not just for their IP, but for people like their director and producers who also have other gigs lined up!
But hey, @Mendes4Lyfe , you know better than anyone, and you can obviously read the future.
I’ll join the chorus in telling you to calm down, or just don’t go on this site every day. It’s obviously bad for your mental health. Seriously.
The main two are dialogue and character. The script in GE is brilliant and the characters are rounded and interesting, they all feel real and lived in
Natalya is one of my favourite Bond girls of the series, I hope we get a Bond girl like her in Bond 26. Resilient, resourceful and yet still sexy and playful. You can't help but fall in love with Natalya. A wonderfully written character and a great performance by Izabella Scorupco
Great lines aren’t without context. “For England” works as a sinister foreshadowing of Alec’s betrayal of both England and Bond, and as a callback at the end of GoldenEye. Bond kills Alec, not for England, but for himself.
It's a bit obvious, isn't it?
Is the line subtle? No. But subtlety isn’t a synonym for good.
The effectiveness of a line or the plot or a character or the theme is what matters to me.
Is the line effective? Our common understanding of the subtext beneath the line suggests that it is.
Did the exact same thing last night with the exact same feelings. What a great way to introduce a new Bond after such a long hiatus. I was more aware of, and absolutely loved, Brosnan's immense situational awareness. Rarely did anything sneak up on him.
Yeah I noticed that watching it this time round, Pierce felt really confident as Bond, like his Bond had been there and done it all.
How great was it to see Bond back on the big screen
There is no subtext below that line. It's pure text! Of course it is easy to understand.
;)
I think it helps that Craig and the other actors are able to sell it. But some of it’s not great (I’ve never even liked the lines about Bond’s armour or the ‘half monk half hitman’ rubbish).
There’s some cracking dialogue in the Craig films overall, but I think CR is the weakest in this area. I like a lot of GE’s script (there’s a reason they used the Onnatop encounter to audition actors, and there’s actually a lot of subtext to that scene all while weaving in all the typical Bond stuff. I think the Craig era’s equivalent is the Severine meeting in SF).
I dislike that linkin park dialogue from CR also. It was certainly a sign of the times.
SP for me had the worst dialogue of the Craig films.
The M scene where 'C' turns up is especially appalling.
GE really was fresh new start for Bond. We need that next time a round too.
