Inspite of all the delays and negativity around bond lately, whenever I'm reminded of the fact that in the near future we're going to have a new actor announced in the role I'm instantly filled with excitement. There aren't many things that can matc…

If the project 007 videogame lives up to the hype EON will have at least some interest from the younger demographic. The problem is they don't seem to target that group much anymore, except when it comes to the title song artist.

We are not in 1968 again. Gen Z doesn't care about Bond on anywhere near the same level as boomer kids in the 60's, or even Gen X kids in the 90's did. He is not a cultural icon to people under 25, he's a few degrees more relevant than indiana jones…

People are calling the film the perfect kick off to the summer movie season, especially since it has stars from both last summers hit, barbie and oppenhiemer. There seems to be a mini resurgence of the crowdpleasing "feel good" film, something that'…

Been seeing a lot of praise for David Leitchs Fall Guy over the last few days, even surprised to see famous film curmudgeon Mark Kermode give the film a positive review. Perhaps EON should give Leitch a look over, his rise through the ranks has been…
