    @ToTheRight Things were a bit simpler back then, and the script was made kind of easy by the fact that you had a book to base your entire plot on. That’s not the case anymore :)

    It was still a person who wrote that book, too. During one summer, probably. And how things get harder and harder is beyond me. What happened to progress?

    Much more difficult now to try and get some genuine Fleming material into a plot.
    I do think Eon could do a lot worse than to consider adapting some of the continuation novels from Gardner or Benson. I still love to see Amis' COLONEL SUN.
    Exactly, so not only do they need to create something that feels fresh, original and fits with the mould they’ve shaped for themselves over the years (which has proven success) but they need to honour the stories that came before by creating something great. While Spectre was successful at the box office, most fans and audiences didn’t enjoy what they got so I bet Eon are doing whatever they can to avoid this with Craig’s last picture. Eon and whoever’s on board have to create something they can stand behind and say, this is our Bond 25 and we can’t wait for you see it.

    How about Hayley Atwell for the female 007 role? We all know from her role as Peggy Carter in the MCU that she can really play an agent very well and she could potentially have great chemistry with craig!

    Hayley Atwell would be BRILLIANT as Moneypenny. Why isn't she...?

    This is my first post, but I assure you, I'm not Hayley Atwell.

    Welcome and I agree. Hayley Atwell needs to be in James Bond at some point. As do Felicity Jones and Daisy Ridley.

    I think you may have just figured it out. Felicity Jones is precisely the sort of uninspired choice I’d imagine Eon going for.....



    She looks a little mumsy. But she’s Oscar nominated, so Eon will naturally be desperate to sign her. She was painfully dull in Rogue One.

    Also, Bond 25 now has its own Wikipedia page:

    Apparently this guy is at Pinewood, sworn to secrecy, and mentions Bond multiple times. I wonder what he's doing there.

    #MotionCapture chap. This makes me dream of a future Bond game tied-in with the release of Bond 25.

    Provocative....

    I’d much prefer Eon kept their Pinewood announcement - solely as I’m in the correct time zone.

    @RC7 are you confirming the press conference next week?

    Teases like this should be ignored. Little George Weightman should either man up and spill the beans or STFU.

    Then why do you complain about it?

    What shouldn't we ignore?

    Some odds and ends:

    --Aston Martin. This week is the Shanghai auto show. China is forcing automakers to make EVs and there have been a number of EV announcements at the show. Probably not directly related to Bond 25.

    --WGA writing rules. My understanding is up to three writers get a credit. However, a writing team (Purvis & Wade in this case) counts as one. In theory, that could mean up to six individual writers could be credited if three writing teams were given credit.

    There is a Screen Credits manual. This link discusses it and the manual itself can be downloaded:

    Yes, they are the Wint & Kidd of screenwriters.

    rapid = blue streak.

    Check out the wiki definition though:

    noun. something moving very fast: They traveled like a blue streak through Italy. continuous, rapid, or interminable speech: to talk a blue streak.

    Nice find! Still think the blue stripe is ugly though…
