  • I wonder if Brozza woukd ever contemplate an Expendables type franchise. Would it be demeaning if he went down that road?

  • bring back Jeffrey Wright! sack Rory Kinnear less Fiennes and Harris about the same amount of Whishaw - who is the best of the SF additions
  • All fair points. A big difference is that the UK economy would have been motoring right now if we'd voted to remain, and so there'd be little economic reason to reconsider a sensible decision to stay in the EU. Britain would be working with its clos…
  • Well the voters get to change their minds on which government they want every 4 or 5 years. But for some reason on Brexit you think they shouldn't be given the option to change their minds even though the implications are far greater than the outcom…
  • Hmmm. Not sure Amber Rudd carries much influence. I think Brexit is like an oil tanker. As much as I'd like it to, it's not turning around any time soon. 1. Has popular opinion changed sufficiently to make a remain vote more likely? Probably n…
  • Well QOS is perhaps my favourite Craig entry so I wouldn't swap it out. But I would have preferred if they'd taken a different trajectory afterwards. SF and SP are a dead end from my perspective. I hate all the navel gazing and self referential stuf…

  • Brexit will help ensure their perception becomes a perpetual reality.

  • Would love it if going out on a high just meant making an awesome movie and not getting hung up on a closing out the Craig timeline in some meaningful way. Killing Bond would be such an easy novelty gesture - I hope they don't go down that route.…

  • An amusing sketch of yesterday's political developments. Funny until you remember it's actually your own country that this is happening to. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2018/sep/24/hard-brexiters-new-plan-gets-a-for-idiocy

  • Don't then always get the new Bond to screentest a scene from FRWL?
  • any reference to Jamaica is long overdue. every Bond should have at least one film set there IMO. it's Bond's spiritual home
  • and old Marxists like Corbyn
  • Good comment piece by the old school (I.e. sane) Tory, Simon Jenkins on why Brexit appears increasingly deranged with every passing day. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/sep/24/sajid-javid-immigration-insanity-brexit-britain-border …

  • It's why we should never had a referendum in the first place. No other country in the world would have decided such an important issue with such a dumb, yes or no answer. What was it Maggie said? Referendums are a “a device of dictators and demagogu…
  • Cavill has improved slightly over the years. He's a passable screen actor now, when he used to be awful. He was okay in Mission Impossible - did the job and didn't ruin any of his scenes. I don't want him as Bond personally though. If Cubby were sti…
  • I have a good feeling about Fukunaga. As much as I like Boyle, I have to admit he didn't seem the best fit for Bond. I like the fact Fukunaga is a writer and that he's demonstrated time and again that he is focused on plot/story. The reason I like B…

  • Well why would Craig come back and why would EON wait nearly 5 years for his last entry? When you add in all these rumours about EON possibly selling up it sort of makes sense. MGW probably won't make another Bond film. Babs seems more interested in…
