I can live with less crazy stunts in the next one. They're great and all, but not necessary for me.
More atmospheric sequences like the Opera or even the bike/car chase in MI:RN would work just fine for me. Just both of those sequences on their own were far better than anything else we saw in a spy franchise in 2015 imho.
I’m being facetious. There’s a strata of that generation that has no interest in Bond other than to demolish the values on display that don’t align with their own. Heaven forbid we entertain a morally dubious assassin, especially a white, male one. Obviously there are ‘kids’ that are into it (more power to them) and others that aren’t. It’s always been that way. However it’s a well known fact that Bond skews older and I’m happy for it to stay that way, despite the obvious appeal of a Yeezy wearing, Pepsi swilling, woke Bond.
Regard story - we all want and recognise a good one, young or old.

I was rewatching this interview earlier today, and found out that Tom Cruise is actually older than the presenter there (Graham Norton). Cruise is 55 and Norton is 54.
You’re right, there are some photos where he gives off a Bond vibe, sort of a Dalton/Cavill mashup.
That's a good way to describe it. Will be interesting to see what role he plays.
Yes. The splinter unit went off to shoot that bit with just Cruise and McQuarrie it seems, so filming is finally over.
Hoping we get another trailer by the end of April/early May at the latest.
Good point. I think Bond 25 will be a 2 hour "ode" rather than another massive bloated action spectacular. I bit like Skyfall was, but more emboldened by that films success, I believe. I will be an interesting and different film, especially with Boyle because he is known equally his social commentary and his kinetic, sometimes bombastic presentation. It's a strange, but not entirely unsuitable match for a 007 adventure, if I do say so. Especially the Daniel Bond. Based on where my thoughts were a few months ago, I'm quite optimistic. At best we could be in for something that surpasses Skyfall for its timeliness, and at worst a fascinating mess of a film like Quantum of Solace.
I used to work at an AF base and went up in such an aircraft to take a photo of a parachute team doing their jump and got to be tethered into the back. It's quite a sight to see live and on film. It gives me a different perspective having done that.
I'm reminded of the documentary called "Within a Minute" on the Revenge of the Sith DVD. Say what you will about the movie, but I've always found that documentary fascinating - they take one minute of the film and break down literally every person that worked to make it happen, from accounting staff to catering to painting, decorating, building. Even a shout-out to the custodial staff that cleans the offices at the end of the day.
Sorry...that was all a long-winded way of saying, "Wow, a lot of work is going into this scene!"
