Wizard is correct. Sure, I'm for EON. EON over ever changing Studio Execs making decisions, sure, yes. Their track record however, as I clearly outlined in my post, is not that stellar.
-
Cubby cluster#$%ed the series too, no question. Quality over quantity is fine, but you have to deliver on quality. Modern day EON has made four terrible Brosnan era films. They've made one great film with CR. Some can argue SF is also great. I w…

I can't remember the last Soderbergh film I saw, but whichever one it was it triggered me to make sure to never see one of his films again. He's overrated. His article on OHMSS didn't change my mind either.

It's up to EON. I'm hoping it's apparent by who they hire as director and writer for tone choices... Craig can deliver on whatever the script and director ask. So lets hope EON wants intensity and a writer and director who can execute that. Oh, and …

If EON was capable of creating a string of great movies, every two years would be fine, three years would be acceptable, four is just too long
-
genuinely intrigued by Norton... if Craig chooses to leave (still think he's coming back), I could live with Fassbender or Norton. Norton has down the road potential too since he's only 30.

When I was 12, I loved YOLT and TSWLM.

that Kings, LA riots movie does not appeal to me in any way... Craig's card is filling up

No, Moonraker has been raped and left in a ditch by the side of the road three times, it has never been properly adapted.

I agree with everyone that a new writing team is needed and I'm excited for the change... but the reality is they've never made a great movie without Ian Fleming... some might say SF, but I would debate its greatness. If they announced they're ad…

ok if Craig turned down the role because he didn't have enough creative control... that is fascinating. I also find it hard to believe. Unless there's a specific dispute over a writer or director, but I can't imagine EON being that resolute A sub…

I'd like to read that untouched Haggis QoS script.

Agree, the Penguin USA Richie Fahey Flemings are awesome. Way better than the Archer cartoon-y they went with.
-
i think Trigger Mortis is better and more Fleming than Colonel Sun. I was always a little disappointed with with CS. Good but overrated. Trigger Mortis... I like the idea of the retro cover, but they should have got the artist who did all the Fle…

Agree Connery is the best of all time, but I meant DC is best able to play him currently
-
Craig is the best person to play JB and fans should be thankful for him to make another movie. SP ended open ended. No one cares about continuity. The audience doesn't care about the return of Spectre, Blofeld, Swann or their absence. The a…
-
Agree with execution being the issue. If it was done well, everyone would be saying that continuity has enriched the story telling and made it more satisfying. Poorly done and you get fans debating it. You can do both and go back and forth. It does …

Jesus, what are you all, their PR Reps? I don't give a shit about their side projects. If they were cranking out GREAT Bond movies with great story lines that show they're completely in control of what their doing and are energized with the characte…

It is interesting that after Rogue Nation's success and positive reception, everyone involved is energized and excited about the next one, while after SP, everyone involved is apparently too exhausted to even talk about James Bond for 6 months...
-
I love Indiana Jones, so I can't help but be excited... cautious, nervous, sure. Just like for Force Awakens. The focus of how they do it will be everything obviously. Indiana Jones is based on action serials. At least that was its original intent a…

Like SP a lot, but to make it top 5 (or higher): Edit down the MI6 team scenes Totally redo the Alps action sequence so it's the BEST part of the movie Drop the Blofeld family connection and/or keep Waltz as Oberhauser working for unseen Blofel…
-
I'm in the camp that the ending was forced, overblown and hokey. If they had gone the RN route and made it smaller scale, suspenseful with Bond going after C (who was perhaps now aided by Hinx, but not Blofeld) and make it a simpler ending it would …

Rumor was that Indy was part of the deal for Ford to come back as Han Solo. Disney bought IJ, so that's a done deal and now Iger can rest easier knowing Ford still has draw. Producer Marshall said no one else will be Indy, but that they have to th…

I don't know the name, but they didn't make it clear that the cat is the offspring of Bond's parent's cat and that's why it was all so personal. Shame it wasn't developed more.
