That's impressive.
I think he was more successful with what he wanted to achieve with SF, but others seem to think SP is far better, and the views are quite polarized on both sides. That's also unique among directors who've done more than one.
In theory, I wouldn't mind it, but he's 84 years old.
Not than someone in their 80s couldn't make a good Bond film, but I think after the fairly lethargic Spectre we need someone with some new and exciting ideas brought in to do something different with the franchise.
Campbell gets Bond implicitly though, & has introduced a new Bond actor successfully twice before, so despite his age, I lean in his direction.
I think some of us might have an idea. ;) :)
Direction: Campbell
Score: David Arnold
Finish with the team that started it all, I say.
Sounds good. I haven't seen his stuff, but I know Sicario got rave reviews. As long as they aren't too social commentary oriented like Mendes and Forster.
OMG YES.
Sounds to me like he's licking his chops for another Bond go, as long as he feels it's "different" enough for him to distinguish from GE and CR.
I would support this, as long as its a standalone.
Secondly I'm amazed there are still people who didn't get it that Barbara Broccoli reigns the franchise.
It was always her since 1996 and it will always be her. Really every major decision was made by her or forced through even against all opposition.
She will cast the new Bond and nothing will stop her if she has set up her mind.
That's what partly troubles me. She gambled big with Craig already, and luckily it paid off.
When I hear names like Jamie Bell it makes me nervous. She will gamble again if she should have a liking for someone, no matter how not Bond he will be.
Make it happen EON! :D
If he's to come back again I wonder if he'd want to adopt Mendes's/Forster's hand me downs for M, Q, Tanner & MP, not to mention potentially Seydoux and Waltz.
While I don't think that they've satisfactorily gotten the current story arc to a point where it's a natural choice to continue the arc, we can't be certain that the franchise will have a Bond of the caliber of Craig along with the ability to attract the kind of top-notch creative talent behind the camera to really make something great out of that story. If they can get the talent in place to do it, I say go for it and close off the Craig era with a bang, rather than the whimper that was SP.
