  • Just an experiment: A Stephen Soderbergh and Chris (or maybe his brother Luke) Hemsworth on a 3 picture deal (to complete the lineup): Lazenby 1 Dalton 2 (Hemsworth 3) Brosnan 4 Craig 5 Connery 6 Moore 7
  • I'm always intrigued with the robot sharks, if anything that plot (especially the climax in the Statue of Liberty) would've make NSNA more better! Even the title alone (Warhead) would've been more interesting as a title than NSNA (aw, Michelline!) …

  • Nope, try to look at the pattern of my replies and you may get the right answer.

  • Blofeld was Polish, right? So, maybe they could proper show his origins in Poland, maybe through Bond's POV, while investigating about Blofeld's background, or have Blofeld invited Bond in his country and have it all revealed through Bond's lens.
  • I've realized now that many people here care for NSNA.

  • CrabKey wrote: » @SIS_HQ - Matera is 434 miles from Venice. I wish the filmmakers had provided a reason. What I mean is Vesper should've been buried in Venice instead of Matera, should've clarified it more.

  • Connery in CR, if that would be Connery's final film (either that or MR), then he would go out on a high note. I remember Charles Feldman said that he intended to film CR with Connery as Bond and even having Elizabeth Taylor as Vesper Lynd, faith…

  • Looking at the death scenes in the Craig Era (they're all bombastic and grand): Vesper's death involved a fight scene with Bond against the Quantum Agents, a sinking house, Vesper's drowning, grand, bombastic. Actually, even M's death in Skyfa…
  • Going Europe again, do you Bond should return to Germany again? Only two Bond films so far had been shot there: Octopussy and Tomorrow Never Dies. Do you think it's not given enough due?
