Bourne has had one recast already of course.

I don't see anything which suggests she's upset, no. She's praising Herron's work mostly.

I think I'd actually have taken Vaughn over Wright: there's just something about Wright's films which feel like they're pretending to be movies in some way if you kind of get what I mean. They never quite feel like fully fledged movies to me, there'…

Heh! I don't think it's intentional :D

Quite interesting comparison video on the AI upscaling on the latest Blu Ray release: I haven't seen it the new release yet so I don't know if it spoils the experience or not, but based on the video I'm sort of half-and-half on it. I can tota…

I think what helps is that Craig did exactly the right amount to my mind: he didn't leave too early and didn't hang on too long- for myself I feel perfectly satisfied by the amount he did, so although I do definitely think he's one of (if not the) v…

Where did you read that, out of interest? I believe one of his dinner suits came from his previous movie, Brenda Starr, which suggests being done in a hurry.

Plus I think Eon were contractually obliged to produce a film within a certain timeframe at that point: they couldn’t hang around. As well as delays meaning serious money when you’ve booked studio space, travel around the world etc. Dalton was hired…

I've just been thinking about fixing Spectre again as it came up in another thread: here's another thought- as the Oberhauser story comes from Octopussy, how about if the PTS hadn't been Bond pursuing Sciarra, but was based more around Hannes Oberha…

I don’t think he totally revolutionised it, no; for example he’s very much keeping up the tradition of the swaggering screen Bond, which Dalton dumped to his peril. He used a lot which had worked previously and added his own flavour and talent to it…

This tweet which popped up again last week did tickle me

Yeah I don't think he does anything wrong at all, even if it's not a score which particularly stays with me. There's that eight-note motif which sort of wanders up and down the scales which recurs all the way through and ties it together, and he man…

Yeah I was thinking if we could come up with a better title than 'First Light'; something Bondy but still on the 'first/prime/start etc.' theme...? Shoot First, Questions Later Always A First Kill Cast The First Stone A Kill At First Sight At…

Surely by now Hollywood is getting the message about Leto?

Certainly ruling out having betrayal in a story about a spy seems an odd choice.

No, I saw about it on Bluesky, looked fun!
