  • Wow….200 posts in one night since I last checked. I can’t see the problem here personally. The ‘007’ trademark has less to do with the character and more to do with marketing. However, it’s a savvy way to drive up interest in the film. ‘James …

  • I think they might use the '007' term or something along those lines. Not the biggest fan as it's painfully obvious. Maybe they'll call it AGENT 007 - I don't hate it. But would prefer something like 'A Reason To Die'.
  • Rodrigo Perez: Phoebe Waller Bridge responsible for female '007' https://theplaylist.net/bond-25-lashana-lynch-new-007-20190714/ Perez is the guy who broke the scoop concerning Burns and Waltz. On the 'Words Are Not Enough' podcast back in Apr…

  • Rumour: Beyonce and Jay Z have met with Bond producers to do Bond 25 theme https://twitter.com/ThePopHub/status/1150430493558677507 Please please please please be true. This would be far too good. talos7 wrote: » Pierce2Daniel wro…
  • Meanwhile a photo of Craig taken at today’s F1 race. He’s looking fantastic... If you mentioned that this was from 2006, I'd believe you.
  • I'm unsure if the actress, Nicola Thorp, is working on Bond 25 or is a friend of Lynch's but she posted this on Twitter: https://twitter.com/nicolathorp_/status/1150400799660531713 https://twitter.com/nicolathorp_/status/1150404576144703488 …

  • Personally, I love the idea. When James Bond became '007' in CR, it really affected him mentally. Remember that look after he killed Fisher? When he tended to his wounds after killing Obanno? When he sat with Vesper in the shower? When he could h…

  • Quite surprisingly this is trending on Twitter in London.....so the hype is real. Though it looks like the clickbait headline that "007 is a black female" is confusing people. Even the cooler heads in the comment section of the Daily Mail seem to…

  • Lashana Lynch to play '007' in Bond 25 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7244671/Thought-007-never-woman-black-shes-James-Bond-hand-number-over.html A movie insider said: 'There is a pivotal scene at the start of the film where M says…
  • The Waltz rumours are interesting especially in context of some the news/speculation surrounding the film. I say this in respect to the returning cast members who are either confirmed or rumoured: * Ralph Fiennes * Ben Whishaw * Naomie Harris …
  • One of the smarter and more subliminal ways they humanise Bond is by showing him bleeding and cut. It's these small moments which reinforce that he is human and not teflon. He gets bruised and battered. There are hints that Bond 25 is going down a s…
  • I found this very interesting video: This is a great video that dissects the character of Bond and his evolution in CR. It's a very character-driver film. But it's also subversive and gritty.
  • There is always the chance that Madeleine is the kidnapped scientist - hence her connection to Malek. Perhaps Malek storms her wedding to Bond in Matera with Bond believing it's Spectre after him. However, it's actual Madeleine he's after. Malick…

  • New photos on the Bridge in Hammersmith! Ralph is on set! Clearly back from his holiday....also, this is possibly my favourite Craig look in the film so far. Clearly takes places later in the film than the scene back at the MI6 office. I assume Bond…

  • I’m kinda surprised this Waltz news leaked out. I mean, we all knew it was happening, but still I’m a tad disappointed that Baz split the beans on what is clearly meant to be a surprise cameo……………………also now that Blofeld is back, we can wait and see…
