Imagine you discover a cave with paintings on the walls that date back to the origin of man, but then you realise some of them depict human sacrifice which doesn't represent today's values so you hire a team of artists to come in and paint over them…

I like the idea of a director that isn't cookie-cutter and you can tell when a film is made by him. Kinda like Burton did with batman, or Raimi with Spider-man. I want to see someone's fingerprints on a film, not some committee agreed upon product. …

Edgar wright is the perfect director for Bond 26. He can do humour obviously, and baby driver proves he can do action, at least chases, well. But he's also enough "indie" to appeal to the cinephiles and bring a unique vision without being generic. …

PETER JACKSONS THE HOBBIT should have just been 2 movies. They added in so much filler to make it a trilogy. Also it should have matched better in tone to the original trilogy. I know the hobbit is a children story, but the fact they filmed them the…

The thing that irks me about aaron taylour johnson is he doesn't seem very refined. He's a bit if a jack the lad type, which doesn't really seem suitable for the role of a gentleman spy. For me he'd be more fitting for kingsman than bond. That be…

The one thing which makes me think the nolan rumours maybe aren't true is that EON like to scale back production and rein in the budgets somewhat once an established actor leaves, but Nolan would command at least a 300 million production budget (min…

Well edgar usually releases a new film every four years or so, and he hasn't announced his next project yet, so I guess that puts him in the running along with everyone else who is available. Personally I think directors and producers on these bi…

If nolan is directing Bond 26 then it'll definitely be released in his usual slot of July 2026. I'm fairly confident cillian murphy is winning best actor for oppenhiemer next year, and Nolan might win best director too, so they'll be doing a lot …

It was reassuring when bond incinerated himself because he could never touch his family again without wearing gloves.

The thing to remember about 89 - 95 is that there was an awful lot of shuffling happening within that time frame even though nothing ultimately got off the ground until brosnan came on the scene. They weren't just sat on their hands for four years w…

At this rate biden will have completed his first term in office and we still won't know who the next guy to don the tux will be. Its getting serious, they need to pick up the pace or there won't be a Bond film in cinemas until 2026.

I kinda though that after waiting 6 years for bond 25 they would pick up the pace alittle but If we don't get an update on the script by the start of summer you can kiss the hopes of a 2025 release date goodbye. EON are already running out of time.
