Boyle loved Ian Fleming which was more than enough. While his films are sylized, so are Mendes, (in his case stagey). They’re both auteurs. Boyle has energy and a better understanding of filmmaking rather than stage drama. I can get someone not liki…

god must you ignite the debate in the defense of BB’s stewardship again... there’s plenty of criticism to be leveled at EON and bringing up Brosnan era in their defense... oh screw it there’s no point.

The new director is a former professional snowboarder... you have to assume he understands the difference between visceral excitement in a chase and just passive spectacle.

I’m hoping Hodge/Boyle bring Fleming and actual story into the script rather than P&Ws cliche generic screenplay writing... I’m sure Fukunaga will have his hand and new writer too though. He’s strong on story and character development so in good…

No Bond death as much as i love some of the book endings, FRWL noted. No big send off for Craig in any capacity. I would allow for a Connery NSNA wink to the audience, but that’s it. Pass the baton cleanly. End with him shagging some babe on a life …

I’m confused about the script too, since I thought there were two. So Boyle broke up with EON and Craig over action sequences in the script... If Hodge was working off an idea they had pertaining to the P&W script, wouldn’t they know that action…

I’m all for multiple people writing to improve a script, but you always the run the risk of a Frankenstein monster depending on the people at the top’s decisions/taste. I have to believe the contrast or elements that Boyle wanted will be known after…

Fallout undoubtedly made them take pause on their plans for B25. MI’s a series on the ascent and Fallout will be the new standard for action films. I don’t think Craig should be doing his own crazy stunts and they don’t need non-stop action, but the…

My ranking is RN is still tops. It’s lighter and more fun for repeat viewings, more Ferguson, better score. But Fallout is great too... the middle of the movie especially, Paris and London. The ending for me while good just need some editing and foc…

Designing sets and scouting locations means they’ve already chosen the Boyle script but wanted to make adjustments... the safe bet is it’s the third act. EON chronically struggles with the third act, you would think it would have been settled long a…

He does look better bearded and rugged. What I’ve seen him in he does have screen presence, can act, but also has an understated nice guy vibe that he would have to lose. Still I’d like to see a screen test
-
Oh I’d be all for screen testing him

So they’re casting, they love his idea, they love the script, but there’s some critical issue that they fall out over (no pun intended): casting choice, action set pieces, some tweak to the script, the false promise that his choices would reign and …

Yes, can’t think of anyone who tops Eva from any era. The only who matches up against her for me isnt in Bond, it’s MI with Rebecca Ferguson. It will be interesting to see who Boyle picks for the female lead for B25...
-
Craig had zero chemistry with women in QoS too... and I’ve liked all the women they’ve cast including Sedoux (we’ll save Gemma who I thought was terrible on several levels). It’s a writing and directing issue more than a casting issue
-
I would argue we’ve seen a lot more middle age Bond in the films than we have of what Bond is suppose to be, late 30s. I don’t need to see old man Bond. We got it in SF and the end of all the actors runs, so I’d pass on that. I don’t need another…

Fleming referred to his mother as M, that’s where he derived it. A lot of her characteristics of being both maternal lovable and stern were put into that character. So again he may not have totally opposed to a woman in the role. It helps to unde…

I hope this movie lives up to the reviews... love Rogue Nation. I was glad this movie comes out a year before Bond to give them a kick in the butt instead of being upstaged. Not sure it's going to matter because I'd be surprised if Boyle cares
