  • While we're still on the subject, I'd like to also recommend once again if anyone hasn't seen it. Nowhere Boy (2009), a biopic about John Lennon prior to The Beatles and is actually directed by his now wife and where they met.

  • Should watch him in Anna Karenina.

  • I do think it's kind of unfair to say they fumbled Danny Boyle when we have no idea what happened with that. I'm also not sure it's fair to say they wasted millions considering the position they were in with No Time To Die's release.
  • By that logic then we should just stop making James Bond? If there are no more stories.
  • Even if they did choose to listen to the fans, which ones do they listen to?
  • Go for the runtime that most benefits the story trying to be told. Don't force it one way or the other.

  • Remember how Casino Royale came out four years after Die Another Day, and Goldeneye came out six years after Licence To Kill… …it’s not even been two years since No Time To Die was released. We don’t need to go into panic mode just yet.

  • Mendes4Lyfe wrote: » November 2025 seems like a reasonable goal right now, problem is if they keep wasting time like this they might end up having to push the film back another year. Why would they need to push it back?
  • JeremyBondon wrote: » Or... Barbara is merely telling how it is. We'll see, per usual. I think she is telling us how it is. "No, we haven’t even started casting yet. There isn’t even a script." The meeting we've heard about was probably…
  • What if they do a Halloween (2018) and do a requel, they just recast Daniel Craig James Bond and do a sequel to Casino Royale called Casino Royale ;)

  • I mean we know they met with Aaron so they're obviously doing something. It's just still very early days as we already gathered when we were talking about that meeting. I wouldn't start going Chicken Little just yet, and also she's not gonna start l…
  • I actually think Scream 3, despite its obvious flaws which I just find hilarious and fun, carried on Sidney's story quite nicely. I think in all Sidney's scenes, they took her seriously which I appreciated and she remained the heart of the film desp…

  • ATJ was hardly ever mentioned in the press until it got out EON had met with him. And it comes at no surprise cause we've been hearing the same names from the press for over ten years. I think for them a story about who the next James Bond is jus…
