We are but you magically weave in the problems you have with the Craig films. That’s my point: you just can’t let this guy go.

@Mendes4Lyfe : It’s just rich that it was you who were suggesting ppl get over Craig last week, but it’s you who is always bringing him up. And you’re not saying anything new. You’re just repeating all the things you’ve said over and over. I d…

@Mendes4Lyfe … you have to get over Craig. His films are done. A part of history now. Last week, during one of our discussions, you claimed ppl were always talking about Craig, and that they just have to let him go. I remarked that it’s actual…

Or YOLT??? Or MR? Or CR??? Craig Bond only was drunk once, when he allowed himself to mourn Vesper whilst on a plane, in QoS... In Jamaica, in NTTD, I gather his intake of alcohol was directly related to his melancholy, a la the character in Y…

That's a good point; he doesn't light up in DAF, does he? I certainly never missed it. I can't actually remember him doing it in Thunderball off the top of my head...? If memory serves me: Sean smoked in DN, FRWL and YOLT (?)

If Bond drank as much as Fleming wrote “in real life”, most people would be vomiting from alcohol poisoning, 😂. Sometimes when reading the books, and imagining the amount of booze this man drinks, I get a nice little hangover myself!

The actors are so much more physical today that watching them puff on a cigarette would take me out of the film entirely. If Craig was going to get in the shape he needed to be in, to play his version of Bond, the first thing his trainer made him…

I’d be very surprised if Spectre played a role any time soon… And the DB5 played an integral role in the Craig Era, I can’t see it making a major appearance (AM I’m sure will continue its relationship with EoN, though). My guess is anything linked t…

@007HallY agreed… More to the point: it’s flights of fancy though, with some on this site who make up, or twist truths, to fit the narrative of their opinions, opinions that they claim are facts. The above was started because a post mentioned tha…

Doing a deeper dive on Raiders, I think @Mendes4Lyfe got his info wrong: As far as I could find, no one told Lucas and Spielberg that no one wanted an old-time swashbuckling adventure because it wouldn’t fly in the 1980s. Instead they were tur…

https://deadline.com/2023/04/wga-members-social-media-strike-authorization-mini-rooms-low-pay-1235325814/ Just an update. Not looking good. As the article states, there's been "a little" progress in feature film discussions, but they're far…

I wouldn’t be surprised if the streamers were also thinking the same thing: why the hell are we spending all this money? One of my writing colleagues said the following: cable tv (in North America), breeds mediocrity but streaming really is more …

I love The Man With The Golden Gun— warts and all. It’s so damn tense. Although Scaramanga seems like a petty thug and a bully, he is king in his imagination, and he’s dangerous enough to keep that illusion alive… I felt Bond was in genuine danger t…

I’ll have to think long and hard about the others, but the best (with a big advantage to his films since he was working with Fleming’s novels (most of the time)), is Richard Maibaum… Plus he improved upon an interesting, yet silly concept in Goldfin…

Was Spielberg told that @Mendes4Lyfe ? I’m not being facetious. I’ve never read about that. Who told him that? Certainly not the producers. So who would have the clout to tell The Beard that Indy wouldn’t work? Do you have a link? I’d be interested …

@mtm nailed it. Proper fanwank done beautifully… (and I don’t feel cheap and used after, 😂).

What’s your idea of a “complete reinvention” @Mendes4Lyfe ? And did EoN say a “complete” reinvention? Or a reinvention? And weren’t they discussing this concept in the context of: a new era, a new Bond? What are the evil forces Bond will figh…
