What I'm curious to know is what did co-producer Craig have to say about that or 'brother' or the rest of it? He certainly was quite involved in this whole thing. Is there anything written anywhere about what Craig objected to?
Just curious.
If it ain't broke, it's boring. EON should be looking to continuously improve. CR was one of the best Bond films, it broke the mold. That's what helps Bond survive.
Pierce's movies post-Goldeneye and Spectre are lackluster, because when you rely too much on formula and "the way things used to be" you end up with a self-parody which was Spectre and DAD. That's why Austin Powers was so successful, it reflected people's sediments on the Bond films at the time.
Whatever Bond does next, it needs to be fresh. But knowing how sentimental Babs gets, I'm ready for disappointment. So I partially agree and disagree.

even though i have some reservations about him (for Bond), i almost feel like it's inevitable that he'll do it at some point
but for gods sake, let us have some fun and straight forward Bond Movies before he takes over
Watched Sicario yesterday to check out Villeneuve. He would definitely make an interesting Bond, but I don't see it happening with all his other commitments. You never know, though. I would be happy to see Deakins return with him. Not a fan of scores that drone, so I would hope that would mean no Zimmer or Johannsson.
Interesting that he references the 70's Bonds. Everyone's assuming a Nolan Bond would simply be more SF but perhaps he's imagining an extravagant Roger style romp?
That's because people make the easiest connection possible and run with it.
BTW, does anyone else think its strange we haven't had a follow up announcement yet?
Regarding 70's Bond: that is precisely what I assumed (and mentioned a few weeks back) based firstly on his age and based secondly on what I could glean from his own films.
EDIT: The follow up announcement is apparently expected in late Aug/early Sep.
Unlikely. It was before your time, but Wiz was once voted one of the top 5 c***** on the board. I have to say I was delighted to finish above him, although I'm not convinced it was entirely deserved. In context this is rather polite. The mods don't ban sarcasm. Cheer up, old boy.

Surely it doesn't take a Bond expert to be able to Google search some more information about the boxset. A ten second search would've told her everything she needed to know.
Can't remember who won, just the crushing disappointment that it was neither of us. Pretty sure that was underserved too.
Could this be the disruption that delays production, and leads to another soft reboot? Hehe unlikely, but it would be kinda funny if that happened.
So they can't start production until this is sorted? I have no idea about this stuff. It would be funny if something like this ended up disrupting production somehow.
This is just about alleged false and misleading advertising. That's all.
This, definitely not something that will stall production.
Absolutely. Say some granny buys the box set for her grandson's birthday and his favourite Bond film is NSNA (having been on here for so many years and experienced all manner of Bond lunacy out there I'm sure such a person exists) then the poor lad would have been mightily disappointed.
The general public can't be expected to know the difference between an EON produced film and a Feldman or Mclory produced film. When it says 'all the Bond films' they quite reasonably can expect all the Bond films.
Open and shut case frankly.
The only grey area is where does the law stand on CR54 as that was a TV production so not strictly a film?
It usually comes included with CR67 as a bonus feature.
It was certainly a left field winner. Echoes of the Leicester title win, if Leicester had been shit.
Yes, Nolan is overrated. And don't get me started on the endless Interstellar.
Interstellar was the turning point. You'll notice how Nolan's films got longer and more ambitious over time, then suddenly shrunk back to under 2 hrs? He's had a realisation, and it forced him to innovate. I believe him when he says we have only scratched the surface of what cinema has to offer. Dunkirk proves it.
