  • The main issue is the producers of the Bond franchise throwing a bone to online Social Justice press many of whom don't really care about the franchise, but who have been campaigning for years for Bond to be portrayed by someone of another race or g…

  • If you type "James Bond woke" into youtube, it will get hundreds of p***ed off fans lamenting this decision to replace James Bond. The story is taking on a life of its own. I hope the teaser trailer puts Bond front and center and not this new charac…

  • I agree @Univex if he isn't Bond in 2023 (or whenever the next one is) then it's a huge missed opportunity. He will be the perfect age by then also. I want a darker haired Bond next and Aidan has that mysterious edge to him. It's the perfect fit!
  • I had my worries for Bond 25 back in 2016. As soon as Craig officially announced he was returning it was a process of acceptance that this movie would not be for me. It's like watching a sport where you don't support either team. I'm a Bond fan of t…

  • If Babs thinks this black 007 gimmick will win favour with fans then its a serious error of judgement. Just be glad they are getting this **** out of the way with Craigs last "experiemental art piece", so we can clear the decks with Bond 26. As far …

  • Just watched Poldark series 5 Episode 1 on BBC, and it must be said how right Aidan Turner is for Bond. He a really growing as an actor and you can see in his performance the same alpha masculine confidence which is crucial for 007. Every Bond has t…

  • "Hey, why not make 007 a black lady?" An idea, I think, they might regret in years to come. It certainly seems like another jump the shark moment, along with tidal surfing and invisible cars. I suppose, if they carry on for long enough, every …
  • This movie doesn't need a subplot involving a female 007. There are already enough balls in the air with Blofeld, Madeline and Bond, plus the new Malek scheme. They need to be focus on how they are going to round out this arc of films in a satifsyin…
  • One thing this news confirms, if we didn't already know it: Bond 25 will be another LONG Bond film. Over 140 minutes, easily. There's no way they can fit in all these locations, new characters, and now Waltz's return all into under 2 hours. The audi…

  • If it is Madeline in a flashback then I get the feeling (Spoiler)
  • The couple things we can look forward to in this film is Ben Whishaw as Q and Rami Malek as a Bond villain. The rest of the cast seem like they are going through the motions, or just looking for a nice payday/profile boost. I haven't seen anything f…

  • For me the problem with Craig's Bond has always been that he lacks personality. Craig plays the majority of scenes with the same neutral expression on his face, and any emotional angst or pathos the audience experiences from a scene is as a result o…
