I definitely think that female 00s can be done well and done believably, even in hand to hand combat, but I feel that the roles are often miscast and mischoreographed. I think Michelle Yeoh and Lashana Lynch are the closest they’ve gotten to getting…

Finally got around to the Russian doping scheme documentary, Icarus. Absolutely enthralling story and insight into the (often seedy) intersection of athletics and politics.

Working on a fan screenplay I came up with a few ideas I’d love to see in the future: 1. I find it a little boring and overdone that Spectre is organization doing evil for evils sake and world domination. My vision reinvents Spectre as a centurie…

If I had to put money down on at this point, my guess is Gareth Evans (possibly with Sope Dirisu or Paapa Esseidu as Bond). Between Gangs of London and The Raid films he can deliver the dramatic/narrative heft along with some exhilarating action to …

I was never keen on the idea before but as he's aged Cillian Murphy has been an idea that keeps creeping up in my mind. He's 46 now but he looks much younger and I think he could bring something unique to the role without straying too far from the c…

I’m a fan of Lowden, I’d love to see him in the series but I think I’d prefer him as another agent or 00 than Bond himself.

In the next iteration, I'd like to see M be a bit of a rogue as well with a bit of a Machiavellian streak, being willing to get the job done at any cost even if that means some murky ethics around checks and balances and skirting the bureaucracy. In…

We haven't done the whole returning actor thing in some time, but I'd love to see Benicio Del Toro return as a main villain. He'd knock it out of the park as a Scaramanga type.

Not sure if he’s been mentioned here before and he may not have the traditional look but after seeing him in a few things and recently getting into Servant, I think Toby Kebbell would be a great choice. I think he could very much continue in the cur…

This could be largely subjective but I see the Craig series as an interpretation that takes the general character/arc of Fleming’s novels (with some liberties and modernization obviously) and fuses it with the cinematic iconography of the EON Produc…

The tone isn't consistent through the film, but I didn't necessarily find it to be jarring either. I found it to be the best mix of grit and over-the-top of the Craig era, especially since Mendes started to reintroduce some of the old ridiculousness…

I thought it was really well handled. For all intents and purposes the Vesper story was finished at the end of QoS, but it's obvious that the baggage would manifest itself again if he ever had to commit to a relationship, let alone one with the daug…

There’s a few of them for me; DAD: I was about 8 years old when the film came out and for an 8 year old in 2002 who loves Bond, Die Another Day is probably the greatest thing since sliced bread. It was all so high-tech and modern and it left quit…

It's really a shame that Ace of Base's title song was withdrawn from Goldeneye. The demo is solid but when I listen to the song fully produced as The Juvenile, I really feel that the song fits the film like the glove and actually feels a little bett…

Never cared for Cahill as an actor, I’ve found his performances to be average at best, wooden and cringeworthy at his worst. As far as Bond he strikes me more as a Bond stand-in from a cologne advert than Bond himself. He’s a little too perfect a…
