  • I get the sense that my recent concerns about bond 25 were unfounded, particularly with the casting/ script is being refined not overhauled scoops. Feeling optimistic about it right now.

  • Ive already “retconned” qos and sp (making it 4 films total). Am I going to have to retcon bond 25 as well?
  • Yea I absolutely hate the idea. Chills ran up my spine when I read it. If true it would far surpass my expectations of the worst eon could possibly do for a bond film. Like this is an unimaginably bad idea, up there with brother gate and bond surfin…

  • Eon (accidentally) put together a good creative team for once.

  • I like spectre as a title. Do not like shatterhand.
  • Would be very disappointed if Craig left. A loud minority wants him to.

  • Think it’s definitely too early for strong feelings either way. I’m hopeful but concerned. I think that’s an appropriate way to be right now. That being said, if either Craig or fukunaga were to walk, I would be livid.
  • Unpopular opinion: they should finally make “everything or nothing” the title of the film to finish the Craig era.
  • *IF* (note my use of this word) this film turns out like spectre, it will have been 8 years since the last good bond film. 8 years since I last saw a new bond film and enjoyed it. And two massive disappointments since. The series will be at the wors…

  • The squirrels have indeed taken over this thread. Eon can be as fan-servicey as they want- whining accomplishes nothing. I’m also starved for information, but just forget about the film until the press conference. The reaction in this thread is comp…
  • Don’t really care about fan service. There’s plenty of bond for us to enjoy right now. All I want from eon are middle of the road bond films every 2 years, with occasional masterpieces.
  • Still too early to lose confidence (yet I’m linked with the “sky is falling” crowd for making perfectly reasonable arguments). We don’t even know that this will affect the prod schedule at all, and if it does, more time probably means better film. I…
