  • Sutter’s another one who gives me similar vibes to Henry Cavill. There’s just something a bit too conventional about him for Bond, and I don’t personally see anything that makes him stand out. As usual that’s nothing against him, and I’m happy to be…

  • I will say in ATJ’s defence, physicality is very important for Bond. You need that sense of an athlete’s (or indeed a dancer’s) control over your body. It feeds into that idea of Connery and Craig’s walk being the thing that drew producers to them. …

  • Again, it might just be me, but I always felt Fassbender's character in Inglorious was meant to be an exaggerated, sort of pastiche of a James Bond character rather than the real deal (even then it comes off as less James Bond and more the sort of E…

  • I’ll represent DAD here and say while it’s a flawed Bond film, it has its moments. I actually think the PTS is quite solid and the premise of Bond being captured/trying to find out who betrayed him is compelling (even if his bushy 18 month beard is …

  • It’s a pretty effective opening. I like that it effectively introduces most of the major characters to us, including the villains. Yes, the slow mo part sticks out a bit (strange joke I only recently learnt the backstory of) and like most of LTK …

  • At risk of sounding pessimistic, unfortunately at least a small portion of people on these forums (and in general) are going to be dissatisfied with Bond 26. That’s including if Nolan is the director. I’m sure a majority of viewers and critics wi…
  • I always say there's a surprising lack of fan fiction on this site. Good luck with this, love reading scripts.
  • I think with Bond it's not about what's 'logical' or not in the strictest sense. I often see people here claiming certain plot points don't make sense, usually well after they've watched the film for the first time. Often times it really doesn't mat…
