At the danger of dragging the wonderful "Whe could/should be a Bond actor" thread into this. To me, it is highly dependent on who the new guy is. Someoneon the younger end of the spectrum like Nicholas Hoult would kind of demand his run being positi…

I think, as long as EON holds on to their part of the rights and BB and MGW are in charge of it, they will probably stem the tide on any TV streaming projects. I have said it before, but my sense is that they are all about the exclusive, luxury elem…

I am more focussed on the image of the company and the place Bond would take in their portfolio. To me, Amazon (the entire company, not Prime Video) has lately morphed into something of a cross between a poundland and a flea market. Mass produced…

https://collider.com/why-nicholas-hoult-is-best-when-he-isnt-the-main-character/ Nice little overview of our friend Nic's career that argues that he is better in weird supporting roles than as a leading man. I would argue that the fact that The F…

I first heard about it on the James Bond & Friends Spectre watchalongs, but this (https://www.mi6community.com/discussion/14103/looking-through-john-logans-script-for-spectre/p1) is any interesting read on all of it and the following comment sum…

Do you think Bond is badly dressed in the first part of Casino Royale? I was recently having a discussion about CR and specifically the dinner jacket scene (I maintain that it is impossible to have that dinner jacket ready the way she does) and o…

I'll say it again eventhough I know it will never happen and is a bit naff anyway. I want a 30-minute, 20+ episodes a season sitcom about the office workers at MI6 who have to make all the unbelievable stuff that happens to their top spy work out…

#3 is out. I am starting to come around on this. I was really unimpressed by #1, I got a bit warmer with #2 and I may actually outright like #3. Some of the issues the previous issues had remain. I am still not totally convinced by the action se…

Why have they still not figured out international streaming rights for big films during this pandemic? I was really exited for the Michael B. Jordan Ryanverse film on Amazon Prime, Without Remorse. Some good, dumb genre action. Apparently, critics …

Just saw the last episode of season 1 of Invincible. That might have been the most brutal thing I have ever seen on a TV screen... I've read the first third of the comic's run and this is much more brutal than those were. Both because the animati…

He is high on my "If Eon did one-off side projects"-list. As is, Bond films are so rare and in a way precious that I wouldn't want an off-formula one, if that makes sense. But if they somehow went to a much, much higher output - possibly by doing…

Yeah, especially this year when apparently a not small number of eligible voters quite openly said they hadn't watched most of the films.. Did they still vote? Who did they vote for?

I derailed the thread into Covid politics again, sorry. A question for our US friends (or the people who follow these things): Was there any marketing for NTTD around the Oscars? Doesn't look like it, right?
