The office had minor changes throughout the years. Sometimes the changes were very slight and of course post-1989 the changes to M's office have become more obvious. One point I'd like to make is M's office in OHMSS: The set is much larger but al…

Anyone signed up to this: https://twitter.com/TheKnowledgeUK/status/502045333732737024 A UK production blog that loans out vehicles and equipment to film people has updated when Bond 24 will start filming.

http://schmoesknow.com/hot-scoop-bond-24-enlisting-blue-is-the-warmest-color-actress-2/27660/ Schmoes Know (who have a very good track record when it comes to scooping news) have confirmed that Lea Seydoux is the frontrunner to join Bond 24.

I like this rumour a lot! But why has this story not been picking up more traction? The Schomes are known for their reliable scoops. Seydoux has a very chic sexy Parisian feel to her. She would fit with the very European flavour that has been sug…

Remember all that Charlotte Rampling nonsense? I intially misunderstood and thought people meant Charlotte Riley. Now she'd make a great Bond girl.

I have no idea why P&W have got such a bad wrap over the years. They are not the best writers but they can hardly be blamed for the the more banal recent entries. - I for one really love TWINE and think their contribution on the script was gr…

Steven Spielberg is one of the best directors to never direct a Bond film. Back in the 70's and 80's he made the Indy films instead and took all the energy and enthusiasm he had for 007 and put it into 'Raiders of the Lost Ark'. I bet Cubby kicked h…

I think the George Lazenby story is ripe for film adaption. I think Lazenby's life would make a great movie in the same vein as Tim Burton's 'Ed Wood' which is a very polished film about a terrible director. Or even perhaps P.T Anderson's 'Boogie Ni…

TB is an epic film with a really grand scope. GF is not quite as polished a production as the one operating on TB; a likely reason for this was budgetary. DN's latter half had hinted towards the bloat that would later become associated with the s…

Picking up the discussion that had begun over here: http://www.mi6community.com/index.php?p=/discussion/9745/analysis-why-goldfinger-isn-t-the-best-bond-film-and-never-was#latest ANALYSIS - Why 'Goldfinger' isn't the best Bond film and never was.…

Rome would be fantastic. I can't find any links on either Morocco or Austria so I'm not sure of those rumours. As for the rumour that Devil May Care may be the title; I like it. I always loved that title, the film can appropriate the title and no…

There were a number of directors that the producers had spoken to before Mendes came back into the fold. Amongst those directors where the likes of Ang Lee, Nicholas Winding Refn, David Yates, Christopher Nolan and a few others (it's not known how s…

Kanye West rumoured to do the title song. http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/entertainment/news/kanye-west-wants-007-theme-30436994.html I hope this isn't some spin from Kardashian campy as West is genuinely talented. Aside from being a massive …

I recently had something of an inadvertent Sean Connery marathon, I thought I'd share some of my thoughts here: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: It's a really fun and entertaining film even if it's a little more familiar and episodic th…

I'm surprised that Logan turned in something quite so risible. I mean this guy has worked with cinematic greats like Martin Scorsese and the likes of Ridley Scott and Sam Mendes. The scripts are far from subtle and often I felt like the themes an…

Jean-Luc Godard did something similar to this with the Lemmy Caution character. Caution was a character who typically operated in his own time and place in a number of French films but when Godard made the film 'Alphaville' he decided to take the Ca…

Great piece and very well written! I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. The Blofeld from Fleming's novels is such a mixed bag for me. I think throughout his three appearance he was essentially three different characters but his appearance in YOLT alw…

Jack O'Connell could make a good Bond. He has some fire in him and he has a rather menacing and unruly screen presence. Another young actor who could possibly take on the part in years to come is Henry Lloyd-Hughes. He's very handsome indee…

Mendes discussing Bond 24 last night in Windsor: http://www.screendaily.com/territories/uk-ireland/mendes-bringing-bond-out-of-the-bubble/5074025.article It looks like he's ruling himself out for Bond 25. But in regards to his comments on Bond…

It's with a rather heavy heart that I say that this show was a massive disappointment. I had really high hopes for the show considering the success of SF but sadly 'Penny Dreadful' is very dull and wastes it's 8 hours. Despite the very compelling co…

Many of the responses here are confusing me. This is far from an unnatural occurrence. Big budget movies often go through several different writers before making it to the screen. It's likely that Logan's time on the screenplay had reached it's natu…

New John Logan interview: http://voices.suntimes.com/arts-entertainment/the-daily-sizzle/john-logan-talks-about-penning-the-book-for-stings-new-musical-the-last-ship/ Not much info but Logan does say that he has grown tired of writing for Bond…

Barry Nelson is seriously miscast as Bond. So much hangs on the casting of Bond and it's a difficult role to get right. I think one of the reasons why 'Dr. No' works so well as a film is because of Sean Connery. Nelson lacks the physical prowess or …
