Michael G Wilson already said that there will be 2 big car chases in the movie, the one in Martrea with the DB5 and in Norway with many cars i guess there will be Lynch's Valhalla and Bond will drive the Toyota not sure if the V8 will be involved...

"It's not 3 hours long." What does that even mean?
The plot thickens. Interesting he didn't care for Pheobe's rewriting his work.
Glad it's not 3 hours.
They could peddle out mediocrity, and take issue with any reasonable and sensible rewrites as if they have some divine right to go unquestioned.
Been saying we need better writers since...1999. Cringeworthy is the worth that comes to mind whenever we talk about P&W.
Their method of writing Bond narratives is, IMO as a writer, ridiculous. I've heard and seen countless interviews with the pair, and their depiction of their so called method is frankly appalling. Reading science magazines to look for plot ideias is absurd. They have no grasp on the dynamics, organics, and overall narrative structure that these films need. And they just aren't clever enough for them. We need true wit, true smartness and inventiveness.
I'll never relinquish on how much I abhor these two hacks, no matter how other fans paint their contributions.
I sincerely hope they don't come back for Bond26. But I'm saying this since...well...2002.
AMAZING photos! 😮😮😮 please never leave us!
May be time for P&W to go. I know many people have been thinking this for quite some time.
...especially what he said about Jinx.
Intrigued to see how the final writer credits shake out....
My prediction is that Eon may try and credit all 4 (minus Scott Z Burns). But as Rise of Skywalker taught us, the WGA do tend to give credit to original writers. There's a very good chance in the final arbitration that these two men sneak into the credits...
@NickTwentyTwo Did you mean me.. the not leaving plead?
Yes
Same thing happened with THE FORCE AWAKENS, with Lucas' original hired writer Michael Arndt being credited followed by Kasdan and Abrams.
It's possible for NTTD, but it would be a tough one to crack. I believe only four writers can get actual credit, as ruled by the WGA. If Boyle and Hodge end up being credited, that means two of the four writers that are currently credited will have to have their names removed. If that's the case, we may see a final credit like "Story By Danny Boyle & John Hodges, Screenplay by Cary Joji Fukunaga and Phoebe Waller-Bridge", resorting Purvis & Wade to sit next to Burns as uncredited.
Savage. And so true.
Thanks. And not a chance. Already digging for stills from the Bond 26 production :D
Does writing well for novels translate to writing well for film?
He's a Screenwriter as well.
Yeah, Foyle's War was good....I liked Michael Kitchen's acting there as well.
Oh I didn't know, cool.
I can understand Cubby consistently bringing back Maibaum, but Barbara and Michael's attachment to P&W baffles me.
I don't expect to be blown away by the story for this film. At this point I'm just hoping for enough Bondian moments to carry the picture. I'm hoping for style, because I feel we may not be getting much substance this time 'round.
Then again. Who knows? This could be an in-genius Bond film that makes OHMSS look like DAD.
Phoebe should be reason enough to be a little more optimistic this time around!
