To be honest, I suspect that if EON wanted Nolan and were willing to give him an unprecedented amount of creative control over the direction of the story, they would have already approached him and this wouldn't be the answer he'd give. I could be w…

Actually I suspect him saying something like that may well work against him when it comes to Bond. It's not a deal breaker, but I can see how a director demanding too much creative control, at least when it goes against what the producers want, woul…

I think Cruise was best when he was younger and played more arrogant and egotistical types. Something about him playing an older, more experienced agent like the modern Ethan Hunt just doesn't seem right, especially when we had the likes of Daniel C…

Istanbul would make a great Bond location again today. Never been myself but just from skimming through the video looks like a beautiful city. Also I know it's ten years after, but I really think that's a nice write up @Pierce2Daniel. FRWL is my …

Moore looks very fresh faced in these pictures (as he does in the movie). It's hard to believe he was older than Connery.

I would personally love to see a future Bond film try to evoke TSWLM (not necessarily in terms of plot but in that larger than life feel). That said, it's worth noting that these types of films tend to come later into a Bond actor's tenure. I suspec…

Both would have to be adapted slightly. Someone on Bond's salary, decent as it is, probably wouldn't have a housekeeper nowadays in London. If May were included and their relationship were similar to the novels, she'd likely be Bond's landlady or so…

The Craig era started off in a more 'grounded' fashion (it was something not unexpected at the time I'd argue, especially with the Bourne films) but it slowly became much more fantastical, even light-hearted at times, all while keeping its darker ed…
