Again, he calls the script "incredible"
Looking good so far at least from DC's perspective
[-O<
at one point during preproduction, Die Another Day was touted as being darker than the previous Bond adventures - at least thats how i remember 007.com promoting it... "working outside of MI6, where no one is who they seem."
and look what a laugher that turned out to be....... when pressing a film, it seems like the hip word to say all the time - "it's going to be darker" ..... really, in tone - i don't see it being drastically different than CR.... and thats fine with me.
post of the week!
Just my two cents.
I think the best thing to do is to not overplay the fact that these characters are reentering the Bond films. In fact if they do it in a way that it feels natural and perhaps even with a little sleight of hand, it could make for a rather fun and memorable scene.
For example, Q: a retired (possibly on disability) Army quartermaster who gets a job running the technology division. He presents field equipment to Bond, but does not actually invent or construct it. That is instead performed by a small group of genius-level employees who all have various forms of autism spectrum disorders, most notably Asperger's Syndrome. For all their brilliance, they struggle with social situations and need highly-organised planning for their day. In this version, Q is more of a headmaster, who is able to organise their day in such a way that they are very comofrtable in what they do.
More interesting is the eagernes that Dan is showing for Bond 23. I believe as Rog did he is slowly falling in love with the role. The shock of MGM going under and having to be rescued must still be with him. He must have felt the feather hand of Dalton having only done two films.
I am pleased for him and he does tend to raise the game of everyone working on the film if the last two efforts are anything to go by.
YAWN! It's PR talk and we'll have to wait until the finished film to judge for certain. They promised a darker film for B22 and we got a dull action film instead with a few arty touches. I'm sure it will be "serious" and more in line with Craig's style of acting but I want to wait until the film comes out to make a judgement. Personally, I don't care if its dark/light/whatever. As long as its entertaining and satisfying. I enjoy TWINE. It's certainly not one of the best but it entertains me. Barbara Brocolli and co "ruined" the series when they comissioned DAD. They need to take just as much blame as Brosnan does.
