  • Watched DoD for the 2nd time since I saw it in theaters last year. I liked it just as much as I did the first time. It's ranked number 3 of the 5 Indy movies behind Last Crusade and ROTLA.

  • Don't forget Tom Cruise is 5'7 and they make it work in the MI movies.
  • idk why its so hard for some to understand. Craigs Bond films are a stand alone timeline. His Bond is dead. Whoever comes in next it will be a different timeline.
  • When a Bond actor has an option of a 4th movie in their contract. Do both sides have to say yes to it? what if the actor wants to do it but the producers dont?
  • Venutius wrote: » In that big Variety interview with Dan, BB, MGW and Fukunaga from December 2021, Craig said that he was contracted for four films. So he was out of contract after SP. Gotcha. He was probably under a similar deal Brosnan wa…

  • I do think Barbara let Craig have too much power when it came to his last 2 movies. I still to this day don't really know how Craig’s contracts for his bond movies were. Like was his first three films locked in when he first signed in 2005 and then…

  • There's no reason for Eon not to have at least a rough draft of a script in progress
  • Im ready to go back to stand alone Bond films. Tho idk if they can get away with that in todays movie climate
  • I just hope that once they get a new actor and a new film rolling that we dont have to wait long for the one after that. I dont think they will cause you have to keep the moment going with the new actor. Its funny. Dalton wanted to come back fo…
