I would like to see SHAKEN NOT STIRRED as a future title as it's so Bondian and sounds cool. However my final choice for Bond 26 is THE CHIMES OF RESURRECTION Technically Bond 26 is 007 back from the dead be it full reboot or whatever pl…

That's talk of Hollywood vfx artists forming a new trade union due to poor work and pay conditions. If this union is established the vfx/cgi crews may consider strike action in the future.

It's official. As of summer 2023 James Bond is a more popular film franchise than Indiana Jones and Mission Impossible. The last Bond film, Die Another Day, grossed significantly more than IJ 5 and MI 7. Bond continues to remain a major attractio…

MI7 could be facing major box office problem. As of today Sound of Freedom has grossed more at the US/Canada domestic box office. MI7 may not make 500 million worldwide? It's currently making less box office than MI6 so it's extremely unlikely it w…

MI has underperformed. It took 56 million over the weekend. That's the same opening as No Time To Die. MI6 opened earlier so made more but over its opening weekend it made the same as NTTD and that probably never made any profit for MGM. Overall …

The actors strike may have a big impact on the box office? Obviously Tom Cruise is considered a big film star with great longevity however casual film goers may think "the average actor isn't getting paid well, I support their strike to get decent p…

The sequel could have been called The December Man ;))

The film opened today, Monday, in the UK. Never seen that before. Usually an early release is Wednesday or Thursday. Maybe Bond 26 should open on a Monday to boost the first week's box office! My apologies. Opened yesterday! A Sunday. Strange.

I think Gavin would have retained his American accent? Who knows. Thankfully Sean Connery returned so we avoided an American Bond.

There can't be many actors that turned down Bond. I mean an actual "here's the contract, sign on the dotted line" scenario. There's huge difference between being approached to play Bond and an offer to play Bond. Hugh Jackman said the producers w…

According to IMDB, Pierce Brosnan has appeared in 99 roles - films and tv. His 100th role is likely to be the thriller Fast Charlie. Release date not confirmed. I wonder if his family should give him a special 100th role cake to mark the occasio…

Cinema is facing a sort of existential crisis? Post pandemic, I can't see how studios can make consistent profit on films with budgets in excess of 200 million dollars plus marketing costs. Maybe the cost of production vs profit margin is not work…

The general consensus is Dial of Destiny is flopping. However, stateside/and in Canada it did open bigger than No Time To Die. 60.4 million opening vs NTTD US/Canada opening of 55.2 million. Will DOD match NTTD's worldwide gross 774.2 million? Ma…

Apparently the greatest threat to mankind is AI so given the looooooomg wait for Bond 26 maybe the next Bond will be a AI CGI deep fake avatar. Hopefully something like... Looks better than Aaron Taylor-Johnson! ;))

Not a title suggestion but a promo tagline for Bond 26. The teaser poster is James Bond in shadow. Below the image is the text No mission is impossible for this man. Bond 26 - coming soon. It's a cheeky reference to the Mission Impossib…

I'll mention the morbidly obese elephant in the room. It's so fat hardly any can get in and out of the room... Harrison Ford is far too old to be playing Indiana Jones. That's not a cheap ageist comment. It's painfully obvious he's miscast due…

Finished the book. My overall review... Despite my comment in my previous post about the "plodding plot" - I enjoyed the novel. Hororwitz description of Russia and the cold war period is very good. In order of preference I'd rate the trilogy: …

Best trolling thread on the site. I applaud Pierce2Daniel for his masterful trolling. I'm sure the ghost of Ian Fleming would agree with your first post. Not!!!!!!

Yet to complete the book, but it's a plodding plot. I'm up to page 200 and no mention of a plot of any substance. Steel Hand want Bond to undertake an assignment but zero information provided. 200 pages and no reveal yet! The story (so far) lacks mu…

The ramp has been changed to rocky terrain understandably, but I don't see that the background has been comped in. He's doing the jump. Not sure what you mean wire safety? The close ups on Cruise in the halo jump looked green screened. Param…

I made an error posting my last comment. Copy and paste mess. 🙄 I'll repost it. Sorry.
