The early Bond films did not have supporting players that cluttered up the films to the exclusion of Bond and his mission which is what Mendes did in SF. Fine that we have Blofeld and Swann and Hinx. I look forward to having them play sizable sup…

Interesting text in that DM interview. Although I never trust the DM, it still does sound like Hardy, and it's why I like him. Apart from being a very good actor, he's unpretentious and honest. Some of these 5' 4" so called action stars like Downe…

I may be getting a bit off thread here, but I am hoping that there is great chemistry (for obviously different reasons) between Bond and Swann and Bond and Blofeld. As already noted, we know Bond will always survive, but I think that both of these …

Totally agree with most of the posts about what made MMFR so special. Particularly agree with @Tuulia's posts and enjoyed the links with interesting background info. Saw the first Avengers, the first Iron Man and a few of the other Marvel spin offs…

NO!!! Just my .02 opinion that I don't think we could get a poorer combo than the two of them. Sorry to those that like him, and I know Newman is competent, but I don't think he is capable of writing a single great melody line. Arnold could, for…

Nightmare combination for the music: Newman and Sam Smith. It couldn't get worse.

My biggest fear re potential BO with this thing, is that the press is going to use the leaks to beat up on the film when it opens. I think all big films and their studios lie like hell about budgets, and the 300+ million SP budget figure in the lea…

And it is still the best, IMO, of the fan posters. Sometimes simple, clean and elegant really is best.

Still think this early teaser poster by @marketto007 is great. Just so simple and elegant. I like @marketto007's two recent ones above too, particularly the red on black one. EON should hire him to do their posters.

What a wonderful discussion. I particular enjoyed your posts @timmer. I had a crisis in faith a few years ago and have been working my way back, so I found your posts very thoughtful and for me, very meaningful.

There was plenty of press, entertainment bloggers etc all writing about it. They help create the buzz. The press has everything to do with hyping a film.

Trailers are very important as they turn people on or off a film. And us Bond fans are a very, very tiny % of the huge general audience they need to make this film a hit. I've beaten "this" puppy to death, so in final, I just think after a teaser …

But WE are not the general audience. And WE will not make SP a hit. Only the non Bond fanatics can make SP another very big hit, and in particular the younger audiences and the growing non-English speaking audiences that want action, Bond girls an…

The new dialogue in this scene better not in any way have MP berating Bond. At least Judy D. was M and even that constant berating got old. If I have to listen to Naomie Harris as MP berate Craig's Bond anywhere in SP, I swear I will kick our dog. …
