  • A while ago I proposed a pair of films - perhaps three - produced all at once, a la the last two LOTR films, set in period NOT in the 60s, but in the 50s, at the times the stories were themselves set, for LALD and DN with Idris Elba. Have music of t…

  • By the way, I quite agree about CR '67. Great fun, great 60s everything, and Joanna Pettet. I wish she had appeared in an EON Bond ! Come on - other folks "borrowed" EON Bond actors - for Operation Kid Brother, for CR '67. Why not borrow one back ? …

  • Creasy47 wrote: » As it should be. Give me an original female spy, don't give me Jane Bond. I'm still awaiting a sequel to Atomic Blonde. Atomic Blonde is terrific !
  • Lance Reddick is so darn likeable it would make it interesting. Or, of course, for one of the good guys, maybe a recurring role.

  • I think Bond's response was sincere, though certainly he must have known it would drive her whackadoo. Or do you think he said it strictly to throw her off ?
  • I think I shall intentionally throw a wrench into the gears right now. Yes, I noted that Nicholas Hoult's teeth are just distracting, whereas, overall, he's a handsome guy. Having noted that - and I might have proposed this before - what about Bened…
  • Where does Bond go after Craig ? Given the very good reason which Bond provided in NSNA - and I'll trust you to remember it - the answer would be: Philadelphia !

  • Apologies if this already was discussed. R Moore was not happy about the casual death Bond inflicted upon a guard in LALD. Bond was using a hang-glider to approach the island from Quarrel, Jr.'s boat. He made it in without being noticed, and met wit…
