@DarthDimi ... The film industry uses Joseph Campbell's The Hero's Journey as bible. So Act One has to be the reluctant hero who must confront the " call to adventure".... Which in of itself isn't a bad thing; it's western mythology. But what wri…

Yes. The producers and filmmakers hate James Bond. They were hoping the film would suck worse than it did so it’d be such a dismal failure Amazon would keep away and they could finally wrap the series up and kick it off a cliff. I think Barbara and …

At least they’re taking the familiar and dropping it into a not too familiar setting. It’s smart. I hope the execution is as good as this idea (the director is solid, so I expect so, 🤞)

Perhaps they will also look at showrunners and TV directors who are breaking new ground with shows such as Succession; they're efficient and their series have deep layers, artistry, tone, tension and suspense, great character work. Team them up w…

I had the same thoughts @Red_Snow … I don’t know why they haven’t reported. I don’t know if his reps asked them to hold off as they are ready to launch their statement? I also worried that something more explosive is on the way (I certainly hope not…

I also think that the sexism from the 60s is, for the most part, exaggeration of someone not well versed in these films. Yes there are some problematic scenes when looked at through the lens of today, but there are far more interesting, complex a…

It’s a shame that Cary is seemingly a repugnant bully and serial scum bag.

@Ludovico ... If you want to watch a mess of a film that is unintentionally one of the funniest films I've ever seen, look it up, lol!

@MajorDSmythe it’s not about casting (the last I heard on this front, BEFORE BB spoke at Macbeth, was that nothing has happened on this front. However, it’s my belief, and this is just me speculating, they have to be having internal discussions. Mak…

@talos7 i hear you and I agree wholeheartedly about directors pitching a turd or two. My problem with Nolan is definitely mine; I despised Tenet and found it so painful to watch it was the first film I genuinely wanted to walk out of. It was so f…

@talos7 ... After Tenet, I'm concerned that Nolan needs people around him (perhaps his brother who is a legit screenwriter (as is his wife)), to temper his "big ideas", and assist in developing them into a cohesive story. Tenet felt like a half b…

You're charming, @JeremyBondon , so I pose a gentleman's challenge to you: Something very interesting happened at EoN in the last couple weeks. So interesting it blew my mind. I showed a couple of trusted members here what this latest development…

@JeremyBondon ...you don't have a scoop. You listen to YouTube "influencers", and whichever one feeds your narrative, you quote. That's all. You were being unnecessarily antagonistic and, as I said, untrue. You're the only one who is mili…

Amazon has its eyes set on Turner for many obvious reasons. Wait… I’ve heard nothing from Amazon saying they have their eye on Turner. Was there an article? Other than the Bond Geek person (who also claims Cavill is number two), where are…
