  • Anyone else find it strange that EON and MGM both wanted Craig to make the announcement? Would of been easier to post the news via social media or their website beforehand. Instead EON gave an exclusive to a late show. But why? I'm thinking that …
  • I don't know if someone's already mentioned this, but I noticed that Craig was wearing the (monstrosity imo) "Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Commander’s Watch" on the show. The relationship between the Omega brand and Bond is as healthy as ever. http…
  • I knew he never left. I was 90% sure ever since I saw SP back in 2015 tbh. Now they can finish what they started and hopefully - in hindsight - boost SP's worth too. Ahhh, feels great to be right.

  • I jotted down some of what Craig said on the radio (rough/paraphrasing here). "Signed up for two JB films?" DC: "No. that's just noise I have no idea what's going on... it's all news to me. I would be incredibly fortunate and very lucky if I did…

  • *After wrist-slashing comment* Barbara: "Very funny." Craig: "Look, if the press release this, they knew well what I meant and that it's wasn't serious. Which means they've decided to trash me anyway. So they're either desperate for clicks or …

  • Number of foreign languages spoken in each film? Btw, are we going to get a clue sometime? (For example: "number of times x happens".)

  • He's died at least twice in the films. We've had the metaphorical death in YOLT (arguably in SF too) and depending on your definition of the term, in CR (2006) when his heart stops beating.
  • Feel kind of bad now. Kind of. Found an article yesterday regarding B25 being potentially shot at Pinewood Atlanta Studios (i.e. Bond set in the US!) and sent Pinewood an email asking if there was any truth to this story. (I didn't exactly buy it…

  • We have a release date, which means the project is green-lit, which means Eon (probably) picked their distributor already, no? Also, would it be naive to surmise that B25 has officially reached "Pre-Production" status now?

  • Hmm. Looks like I forget to mention John Barry's AVTAK score... Definitely one of the better ones in the whole franchise. He's able to capture the scale and absurdity of some of the action to great effect. But Barry also succeeds during the quieter …
