  • I predict a new Bond will be announced 3 years from the release of NTTD.
  • “Extraction” , starring Chris Hemsworth. I absolutely loved this film. The plot, a mercenary sent to recover a kidnapped child, is not revolutionary, but it’s execution is brutally energetic, with touches of pathos and a very effective score. There …

  • From Connery to Craig, none of the Bond actors have been high profile “ heartthrobs “ , and none of them had proven to be box office draws.
  • Based only on the Gif above, he comes off as a sniveling psychopath rather than Bond. Possibly he comes off betting the bigger picture.
  • Politically, socially and aesthetically, such an ugly period ; but, I’m still hoping for the best.
  • I have to say that I’d this is for Indy, and it probably is, I’m disappointed that it’s in the later 60’s as opposed to earlier in the decade; it was a more glamorous time and not filled with turbulent social unrest.
  • A youthful look is an asset; he is steadily growing into his looks and will continue to do so. Bond 26 will not hit the screens for another 5 to 6 years. If they want an actor for a 10 to 15 years Hoult will be the perfect age.
  • Very, very high on my list.
  • As the commercial use to say “ Built Ford Tough”
  • NSNA was on the other day; despite it’s obvious shortcomings, I enjoyed it more than I anticipated. Connery was fantastic, as were much of the supporting cast. Like the superior Thunderball, the underwater scenes are a bit ponderous and the lack of …

  • A boot for Star Wars , a sling for Indy. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-9750597/Harrison-Ford-steps-wearing-sling-injuring-shoulder.html
  • Shooting has not halted. https://screenrant.com/indiana-jones-5-filming-delay-rumors-james-mangold-response/
  • And I get all of that and have nothing against the character, including her possibly being 007 and giving Bond a hard time ; I will watch the film and accept her , but must I find her attractive? Yes beauty is subjective, and I know some do find her…

  • I actually think he was quite good and wonder how he would have grown in the role. I wouldn’t trade the Moore era, but the thought of an alternative timeline with a tougher, more physical Bond is intriguing.
  • I actually really enjoyed the original Young Indiana Jones series and would not oppose a new take on that. As with Bond, casting the right actor would be crucial; Phoenix dis a great job.
