Adios!
More like blasphemy or an insult…
Try searching it in different window then you will be able to view it.
I don’t recall signing up for that. Only saying what I would IRL.
You pretty much signed up for that when you joined the forum.
Happy for you to ban me.
Just giving you the option, if there’s some sort of problem.
You don't give Christopher Nolan fans a good image posting that.
So I obviously haven’t been thus far, no problems then.
Me to. I want Craig back in fifth Bond movie.
Did he? Shame QoS doesn't have a better reputation. There's little news that would make me happier right now than to hear Forster is directing B25.
I too would rather B25 not continue from Spectre. I'd also prefer if the next actor's tenure was made up completely of standalone adventures like Brosnan's. There is something exciting about each new film being its own original and completely self-contained adventure, start to finish. (Recurring characters like Wade, Robinson, Zukovsky—fine, no problem, but no storylines revealing that Zukovsky was actually the mastermind behind Trevelyan's whole plot in GoldenEye for instance.)
Then SPECTRE can return for Bond number 008 and play out over a series of largely individualized adventures like in the 60s. Then back to true standalones with the next fella for variety.
I just can't see what they might do with SPECTRE or with Waltz's Blofeld in Bond 25 that would turn things around for me there.
Ha! That would probably be for the best at this point. ;)
I'm ready for a new Bond myself, but I would actually like to see Craig get one more in and really go out on the high Brosnan was never awarded. Despite the director/script troubles, I believe everyone has a good sense of what needs to be done to make B25 one for the ages and that they are all determinedly working toward that. I don't want Spectre to be the end of Craig's tenure. I want one more classic Craig Bond to enjoy. One more to bookend the high he started with in Casino Royale.
CR and QoS are the Craig-defining films and deserve to be given that bookend which @Some_Kind_OF_Hero mentions.
David Arnold, Geoffrey Wright, Tanner, and Marc Forster can really make a great combo as each have passionately expressed a desire to return for one more Bond, in separate interviews.
CR and QoS are part of one story and deserve that justice.
Stop getting my hopes up, that’s the dream right there^
I feel the same. Forster returning and a similar performance from Craig as we had in QOS is perhaps too much to hope for.
I'd also hope the critical panning of QOS wouldn't make it impossible as I found some of it undeserved. The criticism for SP seemed to increase once the US reviews came in whereas QOS was savaged before the day of release in the UK...and yet either in spite of the bad reviews or because of them, I found it far better and enjoyable than I'd been led to expect. Contrast that with Skyfall which is indeed a good film but certainly didn't deserve the accolade of best Bond ever and I left the cinema concluding Skyfall was overrated.
Objectively I can see why QOS is the least well received Craig film in some quarters and but subjectively it's the Craig film I enjoy watching the most. So by all means bring Forster back. Roberto Schaefer too as his cinematography is the best work on the franchise other than Deakins.
I agree with you that QoS has the most rewatchability of all of Craig's films. Despite its flaws and pretensions, it does in fact move like a bullet.
They already did that sensationally with SP.
I vehemently champion this.
Not sure I can agree with this. I would think a significant portion of the audience would cite CR and/or SF as being his definitive picture/s. QoS isn’t even close in that regard.
