Ehhh no? :-/
Quite.
Memento, The Prestige, BB, TDK, Inception, Dunkirk is a phenomenal CV.
Even his slightly lesser efforts such as Insomina, TDKR and Interstellar are still pretty damn good.
A far more impressive body of work than Villeneuve who I hear nothing but praise for.
And from a business perspective he is practically the only director (Spielberg included these days) whose name on the poster can open a film.
I suppose that's right. Never thought about that before.
Nolan would be great for Bond.
Tarantino.
Tarantino's films make nowhere near the money Nolan's do. Plus with the fallout from Harveygate I think Quentin will be lying low for a bit.
...Directed by Marc Forester
Actual video of me if that happened.
Because he almost certainly would...
Tom Hardy as the henchman probably
Don’t know about the other two.
One of the reasons Nolan should stay clear of Bond. Those are all good actors but I'm tired of seeing them.
Yeah none of them are much cop.
I don't see any reason why Nolan shouldn't direct a Bond film. He clearly respects the subject matter. And is a director as has been mentioned of high regard, and who can open movies. Nolan and Bond would be a huge coup imo.
Chuck in Michael Caine in any role and you've potentially got something special.
He was..he was just called Harry Palmer and was scruffy ;)
Yeah Nolan's great. The only criticism against him I've seen that actually holds merit is that he's not very good at action but I think he's definitely gotten better. The first Batman vs Bane fight was so hard hitting and atmospheric and he's always good at big, epic setpieces (does them all practically as well). I'd love something as breathtaking as the plane scenes from Dunkirk in Bond 26.
"There are a number of NATO agents embedded in terrorist organizations around the globe. Not many people know that."
Sounds like my job.
More like babyshit.... :ar!
That's my one big worry with Nolan. But at least he does them for real and it's not like we're in the golden Glen era of action as it is. The QOS car chase and SF PTS are decent enough but other than that the last Bond action sequence to blow you away was the CR parkour 11 long years ago and counting.
The truck sequence in TDK and LTK homage at the start of TDKR are two of the best setpiece scenes I've seen in the past twenty years in the theatre. I'm also tremendously impressed with the opening heist & TB homage 'Skyhook' in TDK, Bane/Bat fight in TDKR and countless imaginative scenes in Inception. He sets the mood very well too.
I think we would benefit tremendously from that kind of quality work in a Bond film. It's something Bond used to do so well in the past (they used to lead the pack actually), but unfortunately there's been nothing to write home about for quite some time. The most recent benchmark sequence (imho) was the aerial crane parkour from CR.
Spectre's action was out of this world!
