Hence, renaming this into a 'Rumors/Speculation' thread, or opening up a thread for this discussion to take place in. A Production Diary is great, but it only really works when there's real news and an actual production to discuss.
@Creasy47 That is what the beginning of all Bond film productions are like. This is first and foremost a speculation thread. Once more concrete news is released, we speculate based on that particular discussion.
Opening up or reopening a preexisting speculation thread will have the same members posting news/rumours and the same members expressing how undeniably true they are. Let's not let all this effort go to waste.
Don't worry, he has a penchant for it. ;))
If you all don't want the thread to be changed, though, I'll just avoid this thread for the time being. With no official news whatsoever, I find it surprising that there are a good 50+ new posts on this, daily. Ah well.
I've said all I need to say. At the end of the day, it's a mod's decision for whether or not they want to close this thread, but I urge them to consider those who enjoy it and not spoil it for them.
@Germanlady, I'm not taking anything personally. I just think, like I said before, that it's those same few members that push people away from here.
Yeah that's what EON will say: 'Right Chris we'd love you to direct the next 3 Bonds but Turner has to play the lead and we ain't budging on that.'
'Hello Warner. Babs here. Yeah we lost Nolan. Just couldn't agree terms. But don't worry Lee Tamahori has said he thinks Aidan Turner would be a great Bond so we're signing him up tomorrow.'
Can't disagree with this. Especially the last bit. SP is just Nandos chicken served up in a Michelin * restaurant.

Seems some wanted the rumors/speculation talk to happen there, saving this thread for when the real news kicked off, which is, I suppose, how it should've gone, but whatever. Carry on.
Couldn't agree more.
If they were going to go after Nolan as the director of Bond 25 with that film also introducing the next Bond, there's no way that process gets underway without some input from Nolan. I mean, they gave Martin Campbell some input into the process for Casino Royale, with two of his picks making it pretty far into the process (Goran Visnjic and Henry Cavill).
If Campbell got to have input into the casting of Bond #6, you can be absolutely certain that Nolan will get as much input, and probably more, if he is indeed the one to be introducing the next Bond.
This actually happened in several films all at once - Skyfall, The Avengers, Star Trek into darkness, and even The Dark Knight Rises all featured the villain being deliberately captured as part of a Master Plan (TM)

Anyone got any Kleenex for @Mendes?
I guess the bookies are right, though. They were spot-on with their bets in 2005, what with betting being suspended at various points with Dougray Scott, Hugh Jackman, and Ewan McGregor as the leading "contenders" back then.
Gideon awaits in the wings for him...
A good post up until then.
No news is bad news.
But I always thought he described Bond as having a cruel mouth, not a pouty one?
Can't really say that I see a similarity to Turner in this:
I do think that other actors that have been mentioned by the tabloids bear some resemblance to this drawing of Bond, though.
I personally don't care if the actor playing Bond looks like that.
Agreed. However, face-wise the only actor to come close is probably Moore but his hair style is different enough to throw off the resemblance.
That being said, with Craig's casting they might as well toss that pic on the bonfire.
