  • Hmmm how about a film entitled Bond Returns: While Bond is away M goes back into the field and doesn't bother doing missions and just uses the position to gamble, drink, smoke, scuba and skin dive and ski, buy a sailing yacht and an exceedingly expe…

  • yeah I saw those films...he was so good at playing a nasty, P.O.S. villain that he ruined himself for portraying Bond.

  • Indeed ! (Not accounting for birthdays and just going by year) Carrier now is 42...yes ! the little kid ! b1980 Flanery now is 57 b1965 Hall passed in 2002 at 85 and Ford is 80 b1942 Here's hoping he outlives Hall's age !

  • Great Title !
  • I will take the question literally. WHERE does Bond go after Craig ? So, I will identify a location. I will take my cue from Sean's line the last time around in the part on the screen, and I will figure that Bond might like to look up a friend from …

  • Indiana Jones and Believe It or Not After That Last One Here Is Another One or IJABIONATLOHIAO Amazingly, it will be a title even longer than the absurdly long IJATKOTCS Should just have been IJATCS
  • Veddddy interesting. It's too bad they showed any dates in QOS at all. I like the traditional approach where there are no dates in particular. Certainly, a few things may indicate dates or timeframes...the stolen painting in DR, the model years of c…

  • Of course ! They've already changed actors portraying Bond a bunch of times, even going back and forth 67-69-71 and another change in 73 -- that's right, 3 Bonds in 4 films in a span of 6 years ! Sometimes keeping supporting role actors the same, a…
  • Contrary to rumors they do NOT plan on asking for rights to use "Memories" as a number for Catwoman on the rooftops. However, "Stray Cat Strut" would be a good inclusion for an early encounter between Catwoman and the Batman. I see a semi-comic n…

  • I think they should work with whoever directed those Lego movies. If you can gate great a performance out of LEGOS, then, wow, with real people ?!!! It just would be so amazing, amiright ?
  • Yeah, that's the impression I got, too...(whistling, walking off slowly)...
