What do you think is the most likely release date now the strike has ended? 2025, 2026 or 2027?
-
Well the strike is finally over and its time to move full steam ahead with Bond 26. Its already been 2 years since Bond 25 released, if they move quickly they can still meet that November release slot that they like to go for in 2026. Hopefully we'l…

I don't know what course the franchise SHOULD ultimately take over the next decades, with technology moving so fast now its hard to imagine what people will be talking about in 5 years let alone 10 or 15. What I do think is that what in the IMMEDIAT…

I saw Oppenhiemer yesterday and it has convinced me that Nolan could be the right man. I was starting to feel like his best days were behind him, but I think Oppenhiemer proves that this is a mam at the peak of his creative powers. The trinity te…

Edgar Wright and Christopher Nolan are also good acquaintances of Babs and Mick. The former got permission to use the Thunderball poster in 'last night in soho'.

Oppenhiemer will probably end with 250 - 300 million in the US and 500+ worldwide, that's astonishing for the type of film that it is. We'll see who is trouncing who when awards season rolls around, I suspect it'll be a very different picture...
-
Oppenhiemer had one of the biggest openings of the year, 70 million for a 3hr film about a person not many people know anything about is amazingly good. It's Nolans name, as well as the cast, doing all the heavy lifting with this one.

Nolan Bond feels inevitable at this point: - They have been on a friendly terms for many years - Both currently have working relationships with Universal - Martin Campbell is most likely too old, and who EON usually rely on to kick off the new …

NOLAN ADDRESSED THE BOND RUMOURS on the happy sad confused podcast, essentially reiterating that he would be very privileged to work on the franchise in the future but he would need full creative input in all aspects, including script and casting. …
-
My only really big reservations about having Nolan direct a Bond film are thus: 1. His films are a bit on the cerebral side when it comes to blockbuster entertainment, and I think if anything bond needs to focus on getting the basics of a good st…

You mention "light hearted" and people's minds will immediately jump to Roger Moore antics, bond running around in a gorilla suit or whatever, but it's important to remember there's more than one type of humour . EON's task is to find a way to make …
-
If they go dark and gritty again the franchise will be put out to pasture very quickly. I know people think that light hearted bond can never work again, but thats part of the challenge of starting a new era and figuring out how to get the audience …
-
Again, this is merely based on the mood in the air but I think if Oppenhiemer is a critical darling, as appears to be the case based on early signs, then he will almost certainly be high on EON's list. Not to mention once this whole mess sorts itsel…

@thelivingroyale it's true what you say about reappraisal an era once the book is closed. I'm finding a lot more to enjoy in the early Craig films post-bond 25 release. For me, I now view his era in two halves, 2006 - 2012 and 2015 - 2021. In 2…

Even the lesser bond films have a handful of iconic images and a few lines that stick with you, but when I think of the last two films, SPECTRE and Bond 25, and try to think which aspects sticks in my mind, I can't think of any. "you're a kite danci…

I would take another 10 CGI tsunami sequences if it meant brothergate never happened and we didn't have a Bond film where he finds out he is a father only to be incinerated 6 minutes later.

Brosnan was very much seen as "the people's bond", indeed EON knew it would be very difficult to cast anyone else after timothy left, because the public already viewed him as the heir apparent. He represented the ultimate superspy in the eyes of the…
