For the most part, the motorized vehicle chases in Indy never disappoint. I’ve liked them all, they’re always entertaining. George Lucas has mentioned those are his favorite scenes in the movies. The negative thing that I can joke about is Phoebe…

For the future, EON needs to NOT use code-names for classic characters. It only worked for Moneypenny because her character was radically altered from before. As for Blofeld, he was portrayed exactly the same as in previous movies. A blind person co…

From another Bond website, some interesting choices: I’d love to read a Bond novel by Robert Harris. He seems to be comfortable with both period pieces and modern settings, but I definitely see him on a cold war plot. Besides, Charles Cumming …

Interesting information, @ColonelSun thank you. Superman movies still haven’t recovered since Richard Donner got fired. I know he wanted to bring Brainiac and Bizarro in as villains. Ilya Salkind wanted Brainiac, Mr. Mxyzptlk and Supergirl. Ilya wro…

Another author that I think would write a great Bond novel would be James Patterson. While he's a bit old, he is a thriller writer. He also co-authors his books, which means that there is a chance he wouldn't get lost in his ego. I think that he and…

Interesting viewpoints on DAF. There is still some decent material that should be used in a future movie. Spectreville for example. At least for all it's flaws, DAF got more than one thing right for a Bond novel. I can't say that with Devil May Care…

I have some more recommendations for future James Bond continuation authors. They come from mostly Sherlock Holmes and Jack Ryan stories. I’m also trying to name authors born after the 1950s, as IFP seems to be obsessed with hiring writers from that…
