  • Well actually , while Ethan Hunt is the focus, the team concept has always part of the MI dynamic, in all of its incarnations; in fact it’s been criticized for what some see as becoming too focused on Hunt.
  • Every time I try to slip out of work early.
  • The actual outcome of the nuked fridge! ;)
  • He will “bloom” in his post Bond years as did Sean and to a degree Pierce and Timothy
  • I still think that Indy4 could have worked much better with the same storyline, if it had significantly dialed back the digital excess and the mugging Shia. A greater reliance on practical filmmaking is what Dr. Jones needs.
  • Lol, and people are worried about Daniel getting older.......yes I know it’s different
  • I say for the most part no; it would run the danger of becoming a parody. What they do need is an actor who is as comfortable with a quip as he is with action. This is why I think Hugh Jackman was huge missed opportunity. He’s a solid actor who …
  • I’m curious, at this point, as the script is being written, does EON tell the script writer locations they would like to use so that the script can be tailored to suit them, or, does the script writer dictate locations? Could it also be a combinatio…

  • If he nails his role on MI, his stock goes up .
  • I actually think that, other than the "snow scenes", which tend to be hard on the appearance of some actors , Craig looked great in Spectre. I don't see it as him trying too look "young", he's just better groomed. For the most part his hair was spot…
  • "Bulking up" is an excuse old school bodybuilders used to eat a lot and getting fat in the off season. Daniel is a naturally lean guy who's weight is probably fairly constant. What changes is that when he gets in shape for Bond, he puts on a bit of …
  • I agree that he does look better but strongly disagree about the hair; yes it is a well done cut that would look great on some others but Daniel can’t wear something that slick; it’s not complementary.

  • [quote="JamesBondKenya;857028 [/quote] Oh no dude I was completely 100% joking. It was a joke at the media and their choice of actors for bond as well as their idea of what racism is and it was a joke about this forum and how the mods are over s…
  • As have others, In the past I have frequently commented on various actors who have been proposed as the next Bond. for a myriad of reasons most are not seen as suitable; recently I made the observation that the only requirement to be considered for …
  • Fascinating, there are endless post that I , or others, would find pointless or offensive and it is not suggested that they should not be posted.
  • Well, whenever any actor is linked to Bond ithe news generally makes it’s it’s way to this board. Why should it be any different with this one?
  • Good, and I agree. Feeling a black actor is not appropriate for the part of Bond is not racist , while the accusation is prejudiced.

  • Actually the ambiguous ending of SPECTRE, with Bond driving away from MI-6 was a fitting conclusion, in the wrong film.
