  • I will repeat my prediction from a couple of months ago: EON will produce a maximum of two more Bond movies. Artificial intelligence will soon completely reshape not only the entire film industry but humanity as well.

  • Bond 26 should be a faithful adaptation of Moonraker and should be titled "Moonraker". Or if the producers are afraid of reusing a title, they can always call it "Moonraker [release date]" (for example: "Moonraker 2026")

  • Does anyone here seriously find it likely that EON hasn't found their director yet? I find it more likely that they have, but have decided to keep it a secret for a little longer for some reason.

  • I think that even without Danny Boyle, NTTD had the potential to be one of the top 5 to 7 Bond films. Here is what I would have done to make it better without fundamentally altering the movie: - completely remove the Valdo character and as much o…
  • LucknFate wrote: » Man I hate the NTTD we got. Clean slate. Looking forward to it. I told EON not to fire Boyle, but they didn't listen!
  • Something I really would love to see in BOND 26 are gadgets that are cool and realistic. Like tech that is not quite possible yet but likely will be a few years down the road. Such as full self driving car and an augmented reality head set that look…
  • Btw, if I had to pick between @peter writing of BOND 26, and Purvis & Wade writing BOND 26, I would pick Peter any time. I am 100% confident he would deliver a script that is better than anything P&W have written (except maybe for CR, but th…
  • Jesus, this new Making of Dr. No by Taschen looks incredible! Yes, it's very expensive but don't forget that they eventually nearly always reprint their limited edition books in a more affordable version. Once that less expensive version will become…

  • @M_Balje I can NOT imagine the Bond producers thinking: "Hmmm, who should we get? Nolan? Naaah, he ain't Bond director material. No way! Emma Westenberg, director of Janelle Monáe music videos and a tiny road movie? Yess, that's it! We've found our…
  • To be honest, I was massively pro-Craig before CR was released and stayed a huge fan until the release of Spectre, but kinda was over him after that. I don't think I could ever get sick of ATJ, not even after 10 ATJ Bond films. He is wonderful!
  • There’s not even a release date that they’re working towards at the moment. Good! There shouldn't be one until there is a script all the key players (producers and the director) are happy with. On a different note... "Calum Turner? Jaco…

  • There is no way Meg Bellamy won't play a Bond girl one day. She would be perfect!
  • It seems increasingly likely that Denis Villeneuve will not direct BOND 26. In a recent interview he confirmed that he has 3 projects in development: Rendezvous with Rama, Dune: Messiah and Cleopatra.
  • Wasn't Goran Višnjić one of the finalists to play Bond in Casino Royale? He has an accent! Much more difficult to correct than to correct a voice that's not deep enough. And ATJ can talk with a deeper voice. Just watch the Kraven trailer!
