I'll have a lot more confidence in CF (and his real interest level in Bond) if it's a CR like cast. And I don't want an ensemble or team effort at all in the story. Stay on Bond. I'm hoping someone, CF, anyone, gets that...

I agree with others, I’m bored with Oscar, A-listers being courted and casted. Lupita is attractive but wholesome and I don’t think she would remotely make a good henchwoman... Instead of just casting a name, can they write an interesting charact…

I think it’s TMWTGG too... I’m sure it would have been improved if he’d had been able to revise and improve. I always considered GF on lower end but having just read it, I was crazy. It’s loaded with great stuff, but yes the last third could have be…

No, I think CR titles bury SF. SF’s are good, some striking visuals, just don’t get excited when I see them.

I find it hard to imagine if they were about to start shooting with Boyle, that none of his/Hodge script will be retained. Which makes him still relevant until we hear everything he came up with is not being used. Imagine if they came up with a CR l…

Yeah not news I wanted to read, but always feared, in spite of all my effort to be optimistic. The article speaks so glowingly of the script doctor Burns, but Haggis is a well respected script doctor too, so what magic is the new guy going to perfor…

If this is the studio and their release dates and not the production then.. EON didn’t fumble (just the lame press release) and they are not “taking more time to get it right.” shooting date was noted as the same as before... it’s just a longer wait…

You have to let the past go.... in memory of at the end of the movie is fine. Easter egg in the movie that only fans would get would be nice touch. They may not do either of course.

I would make an argument with MGW, that not only is Riscio Fleming, but Sicario is similar and was a big hit, sequel generator, etc.
-
Death to Spies is a good title, but I agree it has to relate to the story.

If Florence was at Barbara’s dinner last night before the awards, one can hope. My dream artist would be Peter Gabriel, but I know that would never happen at this point.

I think hiring stars and celebrities for Bond is lazy, distracting, unnecessary, and a both a crutch for unfinished material and an attempt to gain an audience who wouldn’t normally like James Bond. Screw those people. I wouldn’t trade Eva Green …

I agree if he puts on some muscle and a few years, he could really look the part.
