    It's not the capture concept that bothered some, including me, it was just... How it was executed. Now, in both of the leaked scripts, let's just say, it wasn't there. And I do believe they've added it the last minute which does seem wrong to an extent. No no, not a big problem. It was a good concept just in the wrong place... Because the capture and the break-free happened way too fast, like it was put there to attract the audience like how the hero is 'cool' to overpower his captors like that. They could have left that kind of screen trick for the next one.

    I liked his capture better when he was in Blofeld's lair.

    Anyways, I'd be waiting to hear from MGM and Eon for the next announcement.

    Should we even consider taking this seriously, or not?

    Uh no we can however think about Jackman as a henchmen for Waltz's Blofeld.

    Jackman fits in for a role that pictures him as a heroic 00-agent whereas he actually is a mole within MI-6 working for Blofeld. You know, that "heroic superspy" who is beyond suspicion, leaving out Bond from that circle who does a digging into the man's background and secrets.

    A traitor within the MI6? Very interesting.

    yes and highly original ...

    if we aren't counting Live and Let Die (rosie Carver CIA but again) License to kill (ok he was DEA but the same logic applies) Goldeneye (006), Die Another Day (Miranda Frost) , Casino Royale (vesper Lynd), Quantum of Solace (M's Bodygaurd), Skyfall (silva), and Spectre (Max Denbeigh)

    I feel like I am missing a bond film And this is also not to include the amount of people who were supposedly friends and allies of bond but were villains for that list we would need to include

    You Only Live Twice, For Your Eyes Only, The Living Daylights and The World Is not Enough.



    but yes another traitor would be very interesting and original indeed.

    That Jackman post was done solely in jest. Please don't start reading into it too much.

    I think it'd be really funny to have, Idris Elba, Damian Lewis, Clive Owen, Hugh jackman;etc to cameo as 00 agents

    At least that would eliminate the chance of Elba ever being in the circle of the Bond casting criteria we see on the net every now and then.

    They should cast all of us as Spectre agents. I think we could bring some menace with us. ;)

    I would probably be the first SPECTRE agent (minus Blofeld from FYEO) in a wheelchair.

    It happened way too fast and felt kind of odd IMO. Bond voluntarily took a train to get picked up by a personal driver at an abandoned train station so that he could go to the SPECTRE base and be tortured.

    Then he gets there, is being tortured within 15 minutes, breaks out 5 minutes later, and is in the helicopter and gone 5 minutes after that. The whole script felt extremely forced, and this was the worst part of it. Extend that sequence, give the characters actual motivation to be there, and make that the ending of the film. Immediately makes the film better in my eyes. I didn't like a lot about SPECTRE, but everything after they got off the train were by far my least favorite parts of the film.

    Yes, it got far more complicated after they entered the base. There have been two leaked scripts, and none of them had catastrophic confusions made into the climax. Yes, they were insistent to make the London pursuit the finale, but on both cases, minus the final film, the Blofeld lair sequence was longer by far, and there were actual shootouts, not easy-way-out walk in the park, firing at the goons who don't know how to shoot and catch a bullet very easily. Bond didn't even get the chance to escape Scaramanga's unguarded island that fast, how did he manage to evade a Spectre base effortlessly I'll never know.

    Well, it is what it is. Let's hope the next script will have a solid structure.

    Perhaps, I am not aware... Unless we're counting the leaked notes and exchange between the superiors, too.

    As cool as back to back Bonds would be? I cannot see DC wishing to do that at all.

    In the long run it would save him time. I can see him doing this if the price is right. Would this mean that we would get a Bond film in 2017 and 2018 (or 2018, 2019) back to back, or would they still put a 2 year gap in the release of both films?

    It wouldn't save him time if he only intends to do one more.

    Daniel Craig wil be back for Bond 25 and Bond 26. 2017 and 2019 have been nice.

    There have titles of movies already and get the idea there hinting 007fan your time is up soon. The time as refer by Le Chiffre in Casino Royale.

    Return for Bond 25: Camile, and
    Vesper
    .

    Return also for
    Monica Bellucci
    and Felix (Jeffrey Wright), but not so sjure or this already be in next one and mabey in both.

    I also like to see Helen McCrory return. I think it is optional for two movies. Villiers (Tobias Menzies) mabey too.

    Inprove with making the movies not longer then 120-130 minutes. Rory Kinnear should get a credit on the posters. Let we first see what Lee Smith, Hoyte Van Hoytema and Dennis Gassner can make with Bond 25.

    No return for Sam Mendes & Thomas Newman. Also no return for
    Lea Seydoux
    . Don't trow a way the return of
    Bond finaly get the woman
    and Skyfall symbol
    of no return when Bond driving a way with woman in Astin Martin.

    Writers/Directers:

    Peter Weir, Alfonso Cuarón, John Madden and Denis Villeneuve are stil a option to direct.

    P&W are mabey needed for connections with Casino Royale, QOS, (Skyfall) and Spectre.
