Can Richard Madden do more dramatic and serious scenes? I just haven't seen him in enough roles to know. I feel like Theo James can do more serious and nuanced acting.

I thought Theo James was good in the Jane Austen show Sanditon.

Just back from my third viewing, and I think that NTTD is one of the greats when it comes to Bond. It's my personal favorite of all them.

I've only seen Spectre once, but I really liked it. I'm really puzzled why so many Bond fans rate this one so poorly. By any chance would anyone be willing to offer a brief explanation for the dislike directed toward Spectre? Is it the length? Th…

@TripAces . Interesting stuff! Thanks for sharing.

I'm thinking that NTTD might have legs as word of mouth gets out.

Perplexing. Just don't have a favorite at this point.

Jeremy Irvine was strong as the star of Spielberg's War Horse. I agree with this suggestion.
-
I think Idris Elba as the new M would be great casting. I would miss Fiennes, but c'est la vie. (And good Fiennes Volemort clip @MakeshiftPython lol!)

I don't think the M played by Fiennes can come back anyway because of Heracles. Seems like an illegal weapons project that might even wind him up in prison?

A 1-minute video that might give comfort for those mourning the fate that faced Dou Dou.

I would also like Cary Fukunaga to direct another Bond film.

Dead Reckoning is a chapter title from Moonraker. (But we've already had too much death and references to death in the various movie titles. Plus there's already a Bogart movie with that title.)
-
Thanks. I'll make sure to stay away from NTTD.

I'm starting off a Bondathon, and I was wondering if a moderator could add a spoiler tag to this thread. It's difficult to talk about these pre-NTTD movies without giving spoilers. Or are spoilers allowed for the older movies?

What about James Norton, who has done Grantchester, as well as several other things.
