    I would be fine with a faithful adaption of You Only live twice for Bond 25
    We still need faithful adaptions of Moonraker, You only live twice and The Man with the Golden Gun.

    What if the avenging silence is a code name for Bond 25?...

    I'd give a big round of applause if they were secretly shooting 'Bond 25' under a code name for merely $15 million right now.

    It's the budget thing that's got me curious, especially if Sony is back given all the recent talk about constraints. I wonder how they will do it, given everyone seems to be on a funding leash and these big name actors & stunts aren't cheap.

    One of the more general announcements regarding 'Bond 25' that'll immediately color me intrigued is hearing that the budget has been significantly reduced. I think after SP (the combination of it costing so much, and making a few hundred million less than SF), they're more likely to dial things back, whereas after SF, it was inevitable that the next installment would likely get more to work with.

    Craig's take alone is greater than $15 million.

    Greed! Harry and Cubby would have kept all that in check.

    Daniel Craig took home something like 40 million bucks for SPECTRE

    That is a disgusting amount of money.

    Cubby would never let his James Bond take home that much money. But good for Craig

    Craig's agent is a frikkin superstar to get him 40million. That's how you broker a deal!

    Yes, they'd do what they did to Sean and pay him 8 times less for playing Bond than he made from one random Hitchcock film.

    Or at least they'll place the YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE theme in the teaser trailer.

    A Japanese theme used for a film with a Croatian location? I wouldn't bet on it.

    Or so it seems? [There's nothing in the original 1967 title song that ties it to Japan.]

    The song is Asian-inflected.

    Yes, I shouldn't speak in absolutes. But it's more how the song is produced to match the Asian setting than anything else.

    My real point was in support of the YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE suggestion, by tying to how SPECTRE's teaser sampled the notes of ON HER MAJESTY's SECRET SERVICE. Therefore BOND 25's teaser could potentially follow suit.

    It would be interesting to have a finale where Bond speeds to the center of London to stop a missile from exploding the populace, but with the very London-centric plots we've had recently I'd cool such an idea, and the MR plot would need retooling. It'd be great to see Bond and M play cards at Blades on the big screen, though.

    I would like to see a spin on TMWTGG, and done right this time where Bond is up against an equal like the match that Grant is for him in FRWL. I'd actually love to see a movie where Bond faces a baddie in the PTS that then puts a massive contract on his head in revenge, bringing a cast of unique assassins with different specialties out of the fold to do him in. It would offer a lot of suspense and thrills, with Bond going up against all kinds of enemy types with particular character traits and histories on file.

    Gardner's Nobody Lives Forever. ;)

    A good idea, that.

    I find it rather amusing that some newbies are showing up and shouting the odds at long standing members with credible track record of being trusted as having inside info.

    I've had my run ins with @RC7 myself but he knows what he's talking about unlike some of you kids who've just rocked up, have some respect, you've just joined the house and you are acting like you own it.

    Oh the irony that Trump is affecting the next film, he's fecking everything else up so why not Bond!

    Yes, because hanging out on a forum long enough confers great wisdom.

    I'd rather see a 4 or 5 episode period piece BBC miniseries for each of the novels, myself.

    Does Dubrovnik have castles? I'm sure it does, but it's known for its walled city isn't it?

    If they wanted a castle surely they'd be looking for a... castle.

    Have to say it's all a bit annoying not even having confirmation a film is happening.

    The overall secrecy I quite like, but at the moment it's not clear anything at all is really happening behind the scenes.
