    Personally, I think guessing the title is always going to be difficult at this stage as we don't know the plot. All of Craig's film titles are plot and story specific.

    The better question to ask at this stage is whether the title will be one of the following:

    - Villain's name? Shatterhand
    - Female character's name? Gala Brand New 007
    - Name of location? Have it Norway, Then!
    - A reference to Bond's mission (eg; a codename) "MovieGold"
    - Something generic Risico
    - Something specific to Bond's arc Domestic Blast

    Craig looks old, older than Moore in Octopussy f.e. I'm glad this is his last. It's time for someone new, someone fresh and someone with a sense of fun.
    That's funny, given how Craig looks on that foto as if he is in perfect joking mood.
    I enjoyed the humor in CR and QoS. In SF and SP the humor didn't work for me, but that wasn't Craig's fault.

    Which there are fleming titles unused that could match each of the things you suggest Pierce

    I'll be brief and give 1-2 examples for each

    - Villain's name?
    Blofeld
    The Diamond Smugglers
    Shatterhand
    The Wizard Of Ice
    The Columbite King

    - Female character's name?
    Risico (could be used here traditionally we have always used it as the name of the villain but Rebecca Risico wouldn't be the worst name in the film series)
    The Property of a Lady
    The Beautiful Lure
    Slay It With Flowers

    - Name of location?
    The Garden of Death
    007 In New York
    Dynamite From Nightmare Land
    The deadily Tube

    - A reference to Bond's mission (eg; a codename)
    The Hildebrand Rarity
    The Gambit of Shame
    The Richest Man in History

    - Something generic
    Seascape With Figures
    Cards With a Stranger
    The Eye That Never Sleeps
    The Death Collector

    - Something specific to Bond's arc
    Horizons Of Agony
    Nothing Propinks like Propinquity
    Blood and Thunder


    Hell based on these titles alone we could have films to the 2030's lol

    It's interesting to me how common that reaction seems to be. I think SPECTRE's script is right up there with Casino in terms of how funny it is, at times. And Skyfall too, really, isn't far behind. A nice through-line of rather dark humour.

    But for how serious Craig's films tend to be perceived, I don't think any of them really get proper credit for how funny they can be at times. QoS is the lightest on it, and...well, it's really the lightest on everything.

    This. I don't understand how people can say Craig's era is humorless. The humor is there, it's just not in your face like the cheesy Moore era.

    So, we're calling obvious humor cheese now?

    I read you obituary of me...
    And?
    Appauling.
    Yeah I knew you’d hate it. Did call you an exemplar of British fortitude.
    That bit was alright....

    I also like when Bond just dumps Camille with some random bloke in QoS.
    “Thank you, she’s sea sick”

    :D

    Someone had to say it. The mindset of the general audience who formed an overall stance from what they heard from the common opinion that aligns with theirs without analyzing it. The world must really be bleak for some to consider Moore's era cheesy or its humour (save for a very few of them).

    Damn right Clark,he is my favourite Bond and a legend,to bring down all his efforts and the team around him to one word 'cheesy' is bloody insulting.

    He's definitely my favourite Bond, as well. Not only it is insulting to Moore and his era, but how he reinvigorated the franchise when the series was thought to be coming to an end with Connery's departure. For a lot of people here, a very miserable Bond film should be the template to look up to. No thanks, I'll have my TSWLM over anything made today.

    There's a double taking pigeon, an inflatable Yaphett Kotto and a California Girls needle-drop in that era. It's pure cheese.

    There's nothing wrong with enjoying that stuff but to claim that era isn't largely defined by pastiche is to not understand what it is.

    Hence I put in the brackets "save for a very few." But, then again, what could be counted on one hand leads the generic Moore detractor anywhere to call it "cheese". Yaphett Kotto inflating to death was no more "cheesy" than Goldfinger getting sucked out of the plane window.

    Every Bond Era has its pros and cons either it's Sean/George/Roger/Timonthy/Pierce/ Daniel and the best thing about it has I Never dislike any one of those and I look forward to who will be next one to take the heat. But that topic is for future discussion let's get back to bond25. Eon give us the title I am sick of calling it bond25.

    Just caught the TV Guide synopsis for Comic Relief 2019:

    Hosts Lenny Henry, Rob Beckett, Clara Amfo and Joe Sugg join a cavalcade of guests ready to take viewers' donations on the Comic Relief Celebrity Phone Bank. Alan Partridge takes to the streets of Norwich in an attempt to raise money and it's All Round to Mrs Brown's for a Red Nose Day special. Plus, the cast of Magic Mike Live turn up the heat in the studio and there's a behind-the-scenes look at One Red Nose Day and a Wedding. For James Bond fans, there's the chance to meet Daniel Craig in an incredible giveaway competition.

    Update: On Friday, 15 March from 10:35pm-midnight on BBC1 Comic Relief is giving someone the chance to win breakfast with Daniel Craig.

    And the twist will be of the same caliber as Win-Without-a-Knife Yakuma from MASTER OF THE FLYING GUILLOTINE.

    @Zekidk Thanks for being one of two members here to actually comment on the recent Bond 25 production news, rather than add to nearly two pages of joke title suggestions and fan art (wrong thread) and debate on whether the Moore-era is cheese (again, wrong thread)...
    Yes, those weird-looking ice blocks, appearing more like single bed mattresses painted white (which they probably are), we can assume are for the stunt with the girl. The article also mentions the possibility of the Langvann set being moved to the other lake, OR filming in both places.
    Nevermind the 'Eastern Markets' wording in the rough translation of the article, that should say 'Østmarka forest' instead. Thanks to @Number24, a fellow member on AJB for a better translation of the article.

    Quite possibly two filming locations used for one sequence then. Read through the article, but there's nothing to add really. Security guards apparently claimed there were water tests being conducted in the era (of all things).

    I concur @NicNac. Plus France like many other overseas countries doesn’t always use the English title or translation to sell the movie to begin with. For instance The Living Daylights was called Tuer n’est pas jouer which translates as Death Is Not A Game.

    I love the title the Italian gave to DAD: Death can wait.

    In Germany THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS became DER HAUCH DES TODES, what either translates as THE BREATH OF DEATH (featuring a villain who eats a lot of garlic and onions to knock Bond unconscious) or THE ODOUR OF DEATH. But BREATH would be more accurate. Or more likely THE BREEZE OF DEATH.

    Exactly and there is nothing about Roman sports there, either. Romerriksporten is an underwater tunnel.
