  • Something I'd like them to use is some of the background of Blofeld and Mr White they left out of Spectre: their work in the French Foreign Legion, the "Spectres de pierre", etc. It was better than what they left in. Might be a nice way to bring ele…
  • I hope it's something they bring back for Bond 26. They had famous actresses for Bond girls during the Brosnan era (after GE), which I never liked. They brought mostly lesser known actresses during the Craig era, so I remain hopeful.

  • The spy balloons that have been observed and shut down could be the starting point for the plot of Bond 26. Granted, they don't present a physical threat, but their mere presence can be creepy AF and what's to keep say an organisation like Spectre o…
  • Could Pedro Pascal play a Paco Scaramanga kind of villain, as per the book? He might not look brutish enough though.

  • My wife watched Happy Valley and when I asked her what she thought of James Norton in it and mentioned he's being rumoured as a contender she said he'd be great as Bond. Need to watch the series because I really can't see it.
