I feel we're going round in circles/have had this conversation about Bannon's hairline before. Not like an odd hairline or even a noticeable toupee disqualifies you from playing Bond. Speaking of hairlines, there's this too: But as I said, I …

While stand-alone adventures and not retreading character ideas that were explored in the Craig era are needed going forward, I think we're going to see some sort of emotional beats and what could be termed as 'looking into Bond's soul'. For what it…

@CraigMooreOHMSS Robert Pattinson is rather distinctive looking. He's a good looking guy, of course, but he has these features which stick out - his nose is rather flat, his face has a distinctive shape, his hair is always a bit messy etc. I mean, i…

They have kind of done the whole 'Bond's past mission links into the current adventure' thing in GE too. I'm down for mercenaries in a Bond film though. And yeah, I think audiences want something a bit more escapist, especially after how heavy an…

Elordi's a handsome chap and I actually like him as an actor purely going from Euphoria, but I just don't get 'Bond' from him... if anything I'd want to see him as a villain weirdly (a sort of version of Largo from the novel - handsome but sadistic)…

It's a tricky one. As was mentioned being 'modern' in whatever sense has the disadvantage of one day becoming dated, especially when following trends. It really depends on what one means though and how it's implemented. Does modern even mean 'futuri…

To be fair, I did feel that NTTD's ending was a bit of a downer in a way that wasn't right for the film. I felt what they were trying to go for was a relatively optimistic ending - sure, Bond's dead, but he's now a mythologised hero that will live o…

@Birdleson I'm not always a fan of MGW/BB's creative decisions (heck, I'd say the same about a lot of Cubby and Saltzman's choices too) but is there not a case that they've also done a similar amount of course correcting when needed? I mean, during …

A beautiful man and a great actor. The man auditioned for Nolan's Batman, didn't get the part and still got a role in the actual film as they were impressed with him, that's how strong his screen presence/talent is. But yes, I fear he's too old. He …

It's an interesting time as I'm not sure if there's any specific direction that would ensure financial and critical success for the series, especially in America. I mean, what can they do, make the Bond series more like Marvel films? Ok, how? There …

@Jordo007 Keep in mind that clip is from 2014. I think he was 29 or so there? He's arguably about the right age now, if not slightly older than some of the potential candidates. But yeah, the way he plays that character really struck me as Bond-esqu…

Turner reminds me of Clive Owen. There's nothing unique about him, at least when it comes to Bond. Both actors are generically 'Bondian' looking and have played vaguely suave Englishmen onscreen to the point they are arguably doing Bond impressions.…

I was actually really surprised that Bond described the Spectre party in NTTD as 'Spectre Bunga Bunga', presumably referencing the joke about former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's alleged sex parties of the same name from around 2010... …
