Exactly. I should have worded my response better @HildebrandRarity ; it wasn't really about Brosan being Cubby's first choice (the information I had read on the subject suggested it, but I fully admit to others knowing more than I do on that subject), but he was absolutely a choice that Cubby signed off on.
John Calley may have had some influence when it came to getting him back in 1994/1995 but it's ludicrous to suggest that his hiring was entirely the result of one executive, especially given that Brosnan's leading man career had been stalled for several years by that point so he was hardly an obvious box office draw.
I don't see why it's hard to think that EON would have tried their hardest to keep Dalton on and at the same time made sure that Brosnan was their backup choice.
IMO Mendes and Logan didn't get Bond. I think he never read the books and if he did he didn't care about getting Flrming's character right. He seemed much more interested in movie Bond - hence the constant homages even at the expense of continuity (like the DB5) - and unnecessary drama (hence the brother angle in SP).
Sweet Fanny Adams.
The latter must work at the scientist lab (waldo's lab?), and the russian worker could be connected to Safin somehow
1993.
I am interested to see how Safin and Spectre are connected if at all. There seems to be a distinction between Safin and his compatriots and the Spectre team. Perhaps Safin is also a scientist, Bond saves him only to discover he is the true villain.
He announced his resignation in April 1994, during the shooting of the Scarlett mini-series.
Yes I know.
The real question is, with Blofeld behind bars who is running SPECTRE?
That's why I think Blofeld won't be behind bars for long in NTTD. However, they want to give full room to Malek's villain, and I don't think Waltz has shot very long sequences.
So my guess is that Blofeld will escape from prison at the first act of the film, Safin is doing his evil plan taking orders from Blofeld (but maybe Bond doesn't know it), and at the end I think Blofeld and Bond will come face to face again.
I wonder if either Mr So is back
Wrong. Dalton was offered it after Connery, but felt he was too young for the role! Next time he was considered was after MR, when Moore's contract was up!
Hard for them to deal with Blofeld with originality - especially given Solomon Lane in the M:I films. Blofeld orchestrating things from a prison cell isn't original either - Italian Job, Silence of the Lambs, Skyfall, Dark Knight all have shades of this.
It would be so and so.
Okay. We cool. :)>-
At this point it's just a trope that they may very well use
Mind you ,that will make the British look useless again,i think we've had enough of that with SF and SP.
I have a similar feeling. Most plotlines have been explored by some film its how you use them and the execution that differs. If you watch True Detective plot wise its no dofferent than other crime dramas its just Cary is a skilled director who elevated the material into something great.
Not in that context and not in that film.
Or maybe Bond and/or Swann does unwittingly enabling Safin to take control of Spectre.
I don't know how it can possibly be wrong. In early 1968 when Lazenby was cast what had Cubby got to go on as far as Dalton was concerned? He had no CV. If Dalton says he was considered for OHMSS then he doesn't remember correctly. In 1971 Connery quit 'for good' and the search was on again. Dalton even then was 25 years old, so plenty young enough for him to think twice.
And he was considered, along with many others. He was never approached.
He was merely detained at the end of Spectre
Maybe he got out before NTTD starts off
Take it somewhere else. Let's not hijack this thread with asinine crap.
Dencik has played Russians in the past, and they are known for their sophisticated poison labs.
