I know this is beating a dead horse, but it is pretty wild that the sequel to a film they were only able to shoot because of the delay in production for NTTD after Boyle left will have probably wrapped principal photography by the time NTTD is relea…

I mean, yeah, in a real world one of the most unofficial members of MI6 who should internally only be known by his code number would probably not just waltz into the HQ and have a door access card with his real name on it, especially when he uses th…

There's a fantastic German TV series about a guy who cleans crime scenes (apparently it goes by Crime Scene Cleaner in english-speaking countries) and the weird situations that arise out of this bloke walking into places where people died only a sho…

Another CR question: Does Bond just leave Dryden's body in is office for the cleaners to find? From the first establishing shot, it doesn't really seem like the building the office is in is the embassy (which would explain the complete lack of s…

At the moment we are still at a point where none of this will happen because the Broccolis basically want to keep the interest up through scarcity and when they deliver us a product, they want it to be luxurious, aspirational, bombastic. So as thing…

This might actually be a worthwhile discussion: Who do you think would be the one-off best actor for Bond? No thinking about whether he would do it long enough, no thinking about the place this person's career is in, no questions of availability, ju…

I just finished Count, the new book by Ibrahim Moustafa who has also done some Bond stories (the last issues of Origin and Solstice, I think). Count is a retelling of The Count of Monte-Cristo in a kind of Space Opera world with an aristocratic soc…
