  • Agreed. Interesting conundrum for EON is that the tone of the stories are at times tailored to the actors being consider for the role. At the moment it would seem that they can't negotiate or talk to potential actors until the strike situation is re…
  • Anyway, it's all hypothetical because none of us seem to actually know what the inner workings of EON is at the moment. At least they are doing SOMETHING with the Bond property. Heck, I'm the first person who would love to see a VR game or themed at…

  • Well, the one good thing about Road To Millions is that we'll get some new Bond music from David Arnold.
  • I just got through reading about the premiere of the new Bond reality series. It looked like a film premiere lite with all of the Eon brass showing up and talking about it as if it was the premier of their next film. I'm sorry but I have no interest…

  • I too want Bond to chase women and get laid, which I aspired to until I got married, of course. And Barbara Bach as Anya would be near the top of my list of great Bond partners.
  • DEKE_RIVERS wrote: » I rather watch something like The man from UNCLE than a puritan James Bond. Agreed.
  • The killing of Dent was an essential scene to define what made the Bond movies unique at the time.

  • Welcome to a whole new world. One that is not as fun as the one I grew up in. Maybe if Bond doesn't change, he can show them the way. A new UCLA study of teens and young adults ages 13-24 has found a significant portion of them, as much as 47.5%,…
  • Time to boot up that A.I. program. BTW, what do you get if you ask it to write a classic formula Bond adventure?
  • I can't help but think that with Craig and his era being Barbara's biggest personal contribution to the series and that with that now having ended it may have diminished her enthusiasm. Could happen to anyone.
  • The drilling/torture scene was odd from the stand point that there were no repercussions from it. Five minutes later Bond might as well have had a nose bleed.
