I'd be awesome if there was a touring orchestra show with actors from the films coming along for the ride, so that people across the world could potentially join in the celebration.
Doesn't make sense to me though, because Connery did a Bond-related interview series not too long ago alongside Craig.
-New edition of QOS with deleted scenes and other goodies.
That's all I really need at this point. I'm assuming they already released a big box set of the Fleming novels.
It's a bit disrespectful if he doesnt make the effort for the 50th .
Either nothing special for 50 year anniversary, do nothing special!
No reunion, no cameos, it's been done to death and would be too much of a farce, you know, like the one from 2002.
Besides that, I wouldn't mind if they re-released some of the classics for a short theatrical run, and please everywhere on the planet for a change.
A like film festival
A Game
A Cameo not a stupid speaking thing like "I Know what i mean" but an action sequence and at the end of the sequence craig throwing someone on a table with the five of them around it
The most I would like to see as a "salute" to Dr.No would be to give Ursula Andress a small role.
I would love to see a definitive music CD set. Pull together some of the popular cues and songs. Or better yet have an orchestra tribute to the Bond music. Maybe have some singers tour with them.
Blu Ray's would be great...with all new features! Am I asking for too much?
How about screening all the Bond movies (in high definition Blu-Ray format) from Dr. No to QoS in public cinemas around the world? Let's make it 2 movies per month (e.g. from Jan, 01 to 15 Dr. No will be showcased & from 16 to the end will be From Russia, With Love). February will witness Goldfinger & Thunderball, March - YOLT & OHMSS, and so on.
Excluding the non-canonical & utterly deplorable Casino Royale (1967) & the much better NSNA (1983), we will be watching the 2 recent Bonds featuring Mr. Craig in November. Then in December 2012 will be a global celebration in welcoming Bond #23, the latest addition to the family. What a way to launch the latest Bond-buster.
What'ya think buddies? Is there a better way to commemorate Bond's cinematic legacy? At least for the younger generations it affords them a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to watch all the pre-Craig Bonds on the silver screen. And for the elderly, it is sweet nostalgia all the way. Who would wanna miss it?
If you think this idea is viable, start petitioning your local cinemas so that they can get ready to launch the operation on time in January 2012.
Whatcha waitin' for, chums? Start crackin' in the name of EON Productions, Ian Fleming & James Bond.
My idea would be to just make the title sequence of Bond 23 a homage to the previous films, that way we can all revel in a few minutes worth of nostalgia before settling down to concentrate on the film without distractions. A title sequence would be the appropriate medium to incorporate images, props, small sequences and even with a bit of subtlety the faces of all the previous Bonds, needless to say great care would have to be taken to create this in an artistic and modern take, rather than just showing clips and stills which would just look awfull...I'm guessing Babs and MGW still have Daniel Kleinman's number, he would be the guy to speak to.
A new box set of Bond DVD's in standard from and blue ray might be nice, then carnivals and parades in the streets and more Bond concerts. Also, memorabilia like action figures, model cars, that sort of thing. I would like to buy a model of the Aston used in Goldfinger.
"My idea would be to just make the title sequence of Bond 23 a homage to the previous films..."
Ordinarily, I would agree with you but they rebooted Bond so it would just seem strange now. I think we should hear subtle traces of the old Barry/Bond music throughout the 23rd film. The gunbarrel should be back at the beginning too and they should use the same music from Dr No for this sequence. Exactly the same!
also to get back Q and Money Penny...
a little bit humor in the movie wont kill! lately all i can see is sadness and sorrow in the new movies !
i wish Brosnan is back, he certainly made a better James bond then Daniel Craig!
Yeah, I know the Aston model has been around for years, I mean that it's just something I should get around to buying one of these days. They should implement an aggressive promotion scheme again though for all these Bond toys.
For Craig's tenure, there shouldn't be any more humour than there was in Casino Royale.
