I love that we have no idea. Seriously. I love that there are so many possibilities for how they could bring Swann's character back in, and that we'll undoubtedly be surprised by how they do. The chances of it being a straightforward Tracy-typ…

Rami Malek would be a sensational choice for a Bond villain.

I just want to say that this week's deluge of news was such an unexpected, pleasant surprise. The taste of last August is finally no more. This is it, folks. We're ramping up and it's only going to get more interesting from here. This film's on t…

One interesting thing I just noticed in the BMD writeup about Lea returning. https://birthmoviesdeath.com/2018/12/07/bond-25-report-lea-seydoux-will-return They reference the recent Norwegian report of a "B25" production applying for a rebate …

I absolutely do not understand the apprehension around those characters. At all. "I don't want M, Q or Moneypenny in the Bond film unless they're tied to their desks" is just a perspective I can't even begin to grasp. Genuinely, I'm at a loss. Th…

Thanks @Pierce2Daniel. Lea is absolutely wonderful. She might be my favorite 007 leading lady of all time. No joke. And there's no "if" about this, folks. Lea is returning, so is the entire MI6 crew. Baz is Baz for a reason. This might as well…

We shouldn't discount La La Land, either. I think that was an incredibly difficult story to pull off in a modern context -- and not only did they achieve that remarkably, but the photography was a huge element of the film's mastery of its own tone.

Very, very interested in this (albeit minor) Canadian development. My two cents: If you're bringing James Bond to Canada, Banff or Lake Louise (both Alberta) are two of the most screamingly obvious Bondian/glamorous location, especially for winte…

Agree. I'm feeling confident, with CJF at the helm, that we're in for a memorable and impactful Bond experience.

Agreed. And I stand alongside the sentiment that even the (relatively) poor Bond films are mostly terrific films in their own right. Die Another Day might have some absolutely nonsensical stuff in it, but for my money, it was one of the best time…

Ah, gotcha. Thanks!

We appreciate all of you, @peter! In the spirit of the week, I'm just grateful we live in a time where we can connect as fans over what we love and actually have that discussion informed by people with real insights into the very creative propert…

This is my happiest day. I love this score, and love the sound (ha!) of this release. What's "Orbis Non Sufficit"? (as in the track, not the phrase :P )

I strongly suspect we won't see Blofeld/SPECTRE in Bond 25, unless they truly go hard for the "Irma Bunt is running SPECTRE now and wants revenge against Bond" angle. But I agree about EON's interest in the property moving forward based on what t…

As much as I would have preferred that Bond 25 arrive sooner, I think the delay will ultimately end up making the experience -- through shooting, and seeing the final product -- that much sweeter. Not that I'm advocating for delays this long. 4+ …

I probably would have agreed that the Bourne connection would have prevented Powell from taking on Bond prior to Solo coming out. My stance has changed a bit as a result of it. John's always been a phenomenal composer, but I couldn't quite put my…

Interesting! I'll give you that they move the needle further toward complimentary sound than what we'd normally associate with conventional spy music. But I do still hear a great deal of melody and technical proficiency in them, not to mention some …

Happily! Throwing another name into the mix for Bond 25. John Powell. I've always been a massive fan. His Bourne soundtracks are a powerhouse in their own right, and I hear plenty of inspiration in Craig-era Bond music taken from them. More…

I feel like I'm in such a minority camp, being an unabashed worshipper of the work David Arnold's brought to Bond and yet also a fan of Tom Newman's work on the Mendes films. I have a distinct memory of reacting to Skyfall's score—a Newman score,…
