  • I like the idea of a younger Bond early in his OO career. If we do an origin story we have CR, and there's no point in doing a remake of that. A Bond who's still learning yet has all the skills to be the best agent in the service. I always seem to…

  • FRWL is the OOO as Tania is working for the villain but not aware of it. In DAF and LALD both Tiffany and Solitaire are aware of what’s going on.
  • I think he’s age appropriate in that pick. He looks young, but with enough world weariness to sell the character. The more I see of Sutter, the more I like him.

  • The longer we wait for any Bond news, including the casting of the next James Bond it’s becoming more and more evident that the next Bond is unlikely to be an actor we’ve discussed in this thread. When Craig was cast in CR it came from left field, …

  • So close. You’re in the right ballpark.
  • Well written post @Reflsin2bourbons Bond isn’t really aimed at 12-16 year olds. I see it as more of a more mature adult, middle aged couples, maybe men in their late 20’s who probably got hooked when Pierce starred in GE. I don’t think Bond has to…
  • Wow has it been 2 years since this thread was active. It’s nothing from FYEO or LALD. Only five other Sir Rog films to go. ;)

  • The Last Jedi followed by The Rise Of Skywalker There’s good and bad in both these movies. Sadly it’s mostly bad for me. After the generally good TFA, TLJ feels like it’s trying to hard, and has many instances that go to far, even for Star Wars.…

  • It was nineteen (19) years ago today that I saw Daniel Craig in a boat, hurtling down the river Thames to be introduced to the world as the next James Bond. I had for several months beforehand been reading the posts on a James Bond forum called Kee…
  • Gents you’ve been asked to keep this on topic. Take it to the correct thread. Please.
  • This thread has just become ‘Where does Bond go after Craig 2.0’ Please keep to the threads title, Who could / should be a Bond actor? A few of the older candidates are ageing out, but are there any actors who have been overlooked, or maybe th…

  • The three year gap has been pretty much with us since DAD. Before that we had the two year gap which was a mainstay of the series from LTK, all the way back to YOLT. It was only the first four films that were released annually. So your argument k…
  • I for one am glad EON aren’t like Marvel. Spewing out movies on a regular basis.But at a cost. I’m trying to think of a recent movie from Marvel that has been a hit, outside of Avengers, Spider-Man or Guardians Of The Galaxy. At least with EON bei…
  • This thread was closed due to the spammy nature of many of the posts.
  • Aaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnddddddd, we’re back! Let’s keep it Bond related chaps. Spielberg and Nolan have not directed a Bond film yet. Not are they going to at this stage
  • We have a winner! Bull aka Mr. Bullion is correct. Answers to clues posted above, and thank God that round is over, as I was running out of clues. Haha. Congratulations @goldenswissroyale , it's back to you. ;)
