Seeing Eva Green back in a bond film would make a lot fans here happy and a nice bookend. Madeline back not so much, and i liked her personally. But as far as YOLT, the actor who got CR should not get OHMSS or YOLT, in any form. Those two stories a…

Rumors, were that Ford agreed to Force Awakens with an agreement to make Indy too. I don't really want to see Indy as the elder statesman and not in action, that is his whole purpose. I also don't want it recast though that will one day be inevit…

Here's a view on Mackenzie who I had as my third pick... I need to watch Hell or High Water again: https://www.flickeringmyth.com/2017/08/why-david-mackenzie-is-the-perfect-choice-to-direct-bond-25/

He's a stage director, not a film director

I don't think Blofeld's ever been well cast or imagined in the movies, at least once shown on screen. Pleaseance was a cartoon. The actor from DAF I quite like, but the film not so much. At no point in OHMSS do I think of Telly Savalas as anyone oth…

I like SP, but it could've (should've) been better. It has a lot of poor decision making within it and I've been very critical of it for that. But, I still can enjoy watching it. Like QoS and to some extent, SF, I check my expectations at the doo…

The director short list was not a tabloid rumor. They were never recasting Bond. Yes Craig will have large say on the pick, but he obviously he had say on the list of choices so I wouldn't discount any of them from his perspective. Demange …

the trades published the short list of directors. Mendes wasn't one of them. P&W confirmed it was time for change previously. Discuss the short list director's work not speculation on Mendes return from conspiracy theories.

I also prefer Europe and tropical locations, but I've always wanted them to remake LALD starting in NY with a train trip down the eastern seaboard, ending somewhere like Savannagh, Georgia (rather than Florida) which has moody atmosphere; Then the f…

Yes, and smart filmmakers would have cut the 9-eyes subplot in the writing if not the editing and given that time to Bond and Swann (and Mr. White) and develop that story line more, giving them more to do.

This news plans a weekend movie marathon: Hell or High Water, '71, Sicario and Prisoners. See if I have a favorite of the bunch... from memory, I'm thinking it's Prisoners but we'll see.
-
Whatever Villeneuve wants, give him! The other two would be more wild cards, though I too really liked '71 and HOHW.

EON dropping Bond so they can produce a series of Blake Lively spy movies? I don't think so. Wouldn't be that disappointed to tell you the truth depending on where it landed, but it's pretty far-fetched.

It would be an interesting curve ball to bring back Camille and not Madeline.

This argument about Spectre, Blofeld and stand alone villains... they all can work if the creators know what they're doing. I would argue a thread that weaves across films of a shadow organization that has to be uncovered over time, is actually m…

Fiction based on real is not the same as pure fiction. The cold war, if you're living in it or through it, adds tension that is otherwise not there unless you've experienced some wave of terror Spectre inflicted.
-
I agree with someone on this post long ago about the 50s being grittier. SMERSH is more compelling than SPECTRE because it's real and Fleming hates it (the same way he hated the Nazis). That hate is reflected in the books and is always an undercurr…

A few weeks back I ordered the movie novelization of The Spy Who Loved Me based on some members' recommendations. It arrived a few days ago with Roger prominently on the cover. Normally, I imagine Bond kind of faceless or Sean when reading the books…

It's late May. I think we'll know things over the course of the summer, so everything is imminent... Craig's return, Distributor, Director and with filming at the start of 2018.

Casino Royale: The movie I was waiting for my whole life... one that could stand next to the best of the 60s with a fantastic new actor as Bond. And it has the best ending scene/scenes of any of the films imo. It ends with such a high and buzz with …
