  • You want insane theories? There's no continuation of Craig's previous outings. No reference to anything in Spectre. It's 100% standalone. It's also set in the 1960's at the height of the cold war with Russians the villians. That's right, it's back t…

  • Just watching the excellent show The Alienist on Netflix. Luke Evans is really impressing me. Wonder if he will be in the running for Bond 26? He has the looks and talent and we've had Irish & Scottish Bond's so he'd be the first Welsh Bond.
  • There's an awful lot of newspapers (Evening Standard, The Express) claiming that Bond 25 is going to be delayed after news broke that Daniel Craig is going to be a father again and won't want to be away from his wife & child. Do you think this i…
  • Really hoping for Boyle now. I can see him working brilliantly with Craig and seems fitting as he did the Bond meets The Queen Olympics sketch.
  • Branagh. Please let it be Branagh. Although Murder On The Orient Express was merely another ok adaptation, it was one of the best looking movies I saw in 2017 and was brilliantly directed. Mostly, I want Deakins back as DP. He is a true genius. As …
  • Craig is looking very dapper. He keeps in brilliant shape and the great clothes on his back help. They should start shooting within 10-12 months, so he will be in great shape for Bond 25. He's also younger than Tom Cruise who is doing some incredib…

  • [/quote] I think spectre is a poor bond film. However, to me at least, a poor bond film is way better then any reguler film. Something like MI5 just can’t compete in my mind with the production scale that is Bond. [/quote] Really? Then check ou…

  • Brannagh is a classy choice. His recent Murder On The Orient Express was beautiful to look at. And, as he's a great actor, he could direct himself too.
  • Christopher Nolan directing? Kenneth Brannagh as the villain? I wish this were true, but this would be pure fantasy. No way would this happen. Would love it to be true, of course.
  • There was nothing wrong with the casting of Waltz as Blofeld. The problem was the script. it gave him nothing to do. His first scene he sat down in a chair in shadow, mumbled something then said cuckoo. Then he showed up and showed Bond around th…

  • Some truly bizarre responses to the idea of seeing some more "00" agents in the field. I think it would he a great idea. Loved the beginning of GE with 006 and 007 working together. Gave me chills! I don't know why Idris Elba wouldn't want to play a…
  • I am very curious about the script. I'd like to see more Mi6 agents. 008, 009 etc. I'd love to see Idris Elba as 008 and a female 009. I think the latest Mission Impossible movies have done a good job showing other agents but without detracting from…
  • Just saw the interview and saw Craig say "I will return." Sooooo happy! YES! Knew he would return, but he also confirmed this would be his last Bond film, so Bond 26 will be a reboot / recasting of the part. Very exciting news.

  • They don't need to announce that Craig is back...yet. It's widely expected he'll be back and there's no reason to suggest EON would replace him. I think the real reason they've not confirmed Craig's return is to build a bit of excitment before…

  • Knew it would be Nov 2019. So filming will start about 12 months from now! Just need casting info and who's helming, but 100000000% certain CRAIG will be BACK!
