Keeping Things Fresh

Feel free to redirect me if this thread already exists. I am wondering what can be done to still keep Bond movies fresh. In my opinion they have peaked in CR-Skyfall, with the new tone, re-introduction of classic elements and, in Skyfall, what I consider to be some groundbreaking and interesting new territory. I believe Spectre did classic Bond very well without adding anything new or groundbreaking, but now that they have brought Blofeld back and explored so much new territory, what more can be done? The only ideas I can think of are exploring the Craig-era Felix-Bond relationship further and having another female main villain.

    Better screenwriters would be a start. And more collaboration behind the scenes (eg theme song integrated into score).

    Yes, I'd certainly second that.

    My main ingredients for a another GREAT bond:

    Director: Martin Campbell
    Composer: David Arnold
    Production designer: Entice Peter Lamont out of retirement with a large sum of money.
    Cinematographer: Phil Mehuex

    Shoot the movie on film.

    Oh wait! Fire Purvis and Wade!
