The PTS sequence for the next one will be interesting after NTTD. It's generally evolved in the film series from a sort of 'teaser' opening, often barely related to the story, if at all, to something rather integral to setting up the plot. The one f…

I can see the logic in casting Jamie Bell, especially as a 'left field' candidate. I don't think it'll happen either, and I think such a space will more likely be filled by someone like Jack O'Connell - another talented, versatile, under 6 foot tall…

Yeah, I think Bond having agency/conflict in the story is great. I do think that one thing the writers/producers will learn is that this doesn't necessarily have to be achieved by Bond going rouge or knowing people personally involved in his mission…

I'm re-reading YOLT at the moment, and one thing I'll never understand is why the writers/producers of NTTD chose to adapt things like the Garden of Death, the Japanese setting of the villain's lair, the 'die Blofeld die' line, and arguably to a les…

I mean, what is 'just another Bond movie' though? Arguably we haven't really had a 'traditional Bond film' since DAD... arguably even TWINE and DAD gave us things within those parameters that were out of the norm for the series, regardless of whethe…

Presumably they thought it was too dramatic and on the nose... They didn't want Bond doing anything that might be cringeworthy... On a side note, I do find it amusing (at least in my own little mind) that Craig's Bond has these weird 'spells' whe…

Interestingly over the years I've noticed that while I tend to rank certain films higher I don't rewatch them as much. CR and GF especially come into this category for me, Usually it's a case where I'm not in the right mood, whereas with the ones be…

Cubby was certainly a lot more focused on things like height, the general look of the actor etc. I do wonder if there's a sense of revisionism in terms of how much Cubby wanted Connery for the role in the early days. I always got the sense it was pe…
