  • Let's break this down. If a new Bond 2018 that means we're already 1/6 of the way there! If you take out the time they are making the film, that means we are now half way there!! Come on, we're on the backward slide now!!
  • What's the confusion here? It's Everything or Nothing shortened to EON. Pretty simple really.
  • Whaa?? The specific hardrive presumably doesn't matter anymore since the files can just be copied, but the files themselves are still out there. How is Bond locking himself inside an old house stopping that threat?? MI6 is still at risk, but beca…

  • Maybe its just me, but I lgove the FYEO score. One of the best things about the film, which I don't enjoy as a whole. I don't think there is a Bond score I don't like, although Barry's efforts always stand out on another level.

  • Things are moving so quickly now that 2018 isn't so impossible after all.

  • SF is a character drama. There is no plot in the film, so it can't be a thriller imo. Even LTK had the Stinger missiles which gave the audience a reason to care outside of Bonds vendetta. And in GE Alec has his scheme at the end, despite sounding li…

  • Bond meets the love of his live, but she dumps him, so he tracks down Blofeld to take his mind off it.

  • With TTWTGG, its the most uneven bond film in the franchise. Its has some great moments, but it also has some WTF just happened moments as well. It also lacks the breezy nature which makes me more forgiving of the other Roger outings.
  • talos7 wrote: » One way or another these are exciting times. Yes, Bond is little bit like a soap opera at the moment. Each few days there is a new revelation.
  • Imagine if EON just found a good theatre actor and offered them £250,000 to play Bond for one film. Then the budget could be cut way back, to say 150 million. I'm more of the opinion that the guy in the suit doesn't really matter. If the film he is …
