Sometimes it’s okay to be wrong 😉 I don’t think anyone’s opinion is wrong, @007ClassicBondFan , but Mendes’s MO in the past is to speak as if he’s an authority on what the fans want and what the fans need. His facts usually are incorrect or h…

Yep @MakeshiftPython … the greed that pops through the cracks like weeds…. @Kojak007 … We all hope for a quick resolution, but the studios really are looking to break strikers, and the easiest targets are the writers (so my guess is the actors an…

Great thoughts @mtm …. I’ll have to go back and read that article again, but all set pieces should move either the story forward, OR the main character (action is character, character is action), so I disagree with his thoughts there… And good ca…

@Creasy47 i saw the first two in the cinema, but so loathed the second one, I skipped the third when it was released. Ironically, and controversially, when I DID see the third film (on DVD), that was, and still is, by far, and without competition, m…

@Creasy47 , that's the thing that struck me; I saw the first Mission when it came out, and I still remember so much of it, including the scene he discusses... But I remember the story and many other scenes, and characters But the last three?.... …

Hey all: A friend led me to the latest “Scriptshadow” article re: Mission: Impossible, and action set pieces in general. I admittedly have lost the plot with M:I films. The last three all blended together, and I genuinely forget which is which…

You’re right, @LucknFate … this all seriously sucks… Thankfully I’m at a distance (we are under an IPA for indie films and if actors go on strike, we will receive a waiver— and most of our talent is coming from the UK (also members of SAG-AFTRA, but…

The latest: https://deadline.com/2023/07/writers-strike-hollywood-studios-deal-fight-wga-actors-1235434335/ So the long and short: actors may be on strike sometime today, but, whether they do or not is inconsequential; the studios are leaking …

@AstonLotus ... You've been reading too much Nolte over at your Breitbart, 😂

@Ludovico , I didn’t know you were a novelist! Tremblant is a magical setting and could drive a great snow set piece with a gorgeous backdrop….

The death of James Bond was so unique, any character involved in this era will be recast with new actors. It cuts down on any confusion, and the last thing the producers will want is an audience member(s) thinking about the last era as they introduc…

Awww thanks @Red_Snow !!! That’s very nice! I was actually posting this more to make (EDIT) a note on how this could further bung-up Bond developments (as well as other favourite films/series/franchises), 😂. But thanks so much for well wishes and…

Thanks @Jordo007 … As of this writing, we still aim to be shooting in the UK in October (preproduction in September), but I was told some of the loop holes we have to jump through are becoming clearer. We are under the Independent Production Agreeme…

An update on SAG-AFTRA https://deadline.com/2023/07/actors-strike-sag-aftra-picket-signs-1235432253/ The last time the actors went on strike was 1980, and it lasted three months. The last time they went on strike while the writers were also…

Damn you, @thedove ! This question gave my brain a cramp 😂

For DN they wanted someone who could play a sardonic, rugged, but essentially charming anti-hero type. For CR they wanted someone who could push the grittier side of Bond. In both instances rather unusual, but talented candidates were chosen, to the…
