If I had to guess at what most fans want from Bond 25, I would say simply a film without inner emotional turmoil or reflecting on the past. They introduced that theme with Dalton ofcourse, but what made those different is that we were along for the …

My personal hope is that Campbell returns and directs a new Bond film in 2020, without Craig. If there is pressure from Universal and others to rush a Bond film out, but Craig doesn't want to be a part of it, then EON will have no time to court the…

If they held that meeting we will hear about it soon enough. No way they can keep it under wraps for long. I don't see Edgar Wright getting involved in a project like this, especially one which is having development troubles as it is. So that …

I can understand if Craig doesn't want to be away for his child's first time on the planet. That could be a big factor in his decision.

Don't usually like Scott Mendelson of Forbes, but this is interesting: https://www.forbes.com/sites/scottmendelson/2018/08/24/james-bond-25-gets-delayed-should-daniel-craig-quit-while-hes-ahead/#59ee49123c97

People are saying Bond 25 will definitely move ahead with Craig because Universal want him, but what if there is a delay and he simply decides he doesn't want to continue anymore. What if he decides he'd rather spend the time with his new family, an…

I love how THR and Variety come out with articles (amongst countless others) saying there will be a significant delay, and that's just speculation, but Deadline comes with a ray of hope, and suddenly its credible info.

I think if Nolan ever got Bond he would surprise us. It wouldn't just be Batman Begins with Bond instead of Bruce.

Yes, that is the crux of the matter. Everyone talks about what having Craig brings to Bond, but if he stands between us getting an entertaining movie, then it doesn't matter how good he supposedly is. He has his idea of the type of Bond movie he wan…

Bring in Mendes if it means maintaining a 2019 release, otherwise press the eject button and escape this tenure immediately. They need to shake things up, and Craig only cares about getting his way.

That means they are replacing Craig, no? There is no way they could write a new script and produce a movie for 2019, or even summer 2020 now.
-
Demange or Mendes is fine if they can still hit a 2019 release date like promised. Otherwise just cut your loses. It really isn't worth it drawing things out so long so a 51 year old, as Craig will be in 2020, can be Bond "one last time". The tenure…

429 days until the premier and we have no idea who the director of the movie is, no idea of the cast, or even which script they will use. I thought spending 4 years was supposed to make things go smoothly?

P + W script it is then.

It's like that article said, Craig has been in the role for a long time, and the films don't seem to be as fresh anymore. How we ever got into this predicament in the first place is beyond me, but we only have three options now. Either they rush som…

They took 3 years finding someone to direct that Craig was happy with, now all of a sudden they are going to find someone else in a couple weeks and move forward without a hitch? I don't think people are appreciating that Hodge's script was based on…
