    More directors should make multiple Bonds. I wish there was a new Terrance Young on the scene (or, God forbid, Guy Hamilton).

    I don't quite understand what this all means. In terms of box office, GE was a mammoth block buster as was CR. With inflation adjusted the most successful Bond film of all was TB.
    The lowest grossing film was Connery's first film, DN.As a matter of fact, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (another Fleming book produced by Brocholi and Salzman) outgrossed DN back in 1962...

    Nice work DaltonCraig! That's really impressive! It's interesting to see that if a particular Bond movie did well, then its successor does also, but if its predecessor does poorly, then then so does it. Of course that isn't 100% always true, but I noticed how that seems to work out in those lists.

    Casino Royale 600 million
    QOS
    DAD
    TMND
    Twine
    GE
    Moonraker 200 million

    What i like to see is how much people realy watch it. For example if Dr No have 1 million visiters, then in today prices the movie delieverd $ 11 million for this count of visiters and delieverd 11 times so much as the movie cost or delieverd 11 times to much as the set of the last scene of Yolt. Dr No cost $ 1 million to make and that set also cost 1 million to make.

    Iam not sjure but i think DAD god 966.000 visiters to deliever 7,4 million. What i did is take 7,4 million (7400000): 7,75 (price ticket) and get something like this 0,966000 etc.. Because million have 6 numbers i take then the first 6 numbers after the , and 966.000 x 7,75 = 7 million, 485000, 500

    DAD exact delieverd $7,348,890 (7 million, 349000, 890) in The Netherlands in 2003.

    If we take DAD in to 2008 with tickets prices of QOS who cost 10,00 a ticket in 2008 with the same visiters count as DAD (966.000) then DAD it delieverd 9,6 million. QOS box office results be close to 8,8 millionand in in other words DAD is more succesfol Bond movie then QOS. Because QOS have 888.000 visiters. CR need having a litle bit more visiters then 1 million because it deliever more then 10 million but ticket prices be € 9,00.

    Note: from what i know $ and € be even.

    Although Dalton's best film is 20th, which I find disappointing.

    its no fault of EON.... granted, during the Brosnan run, they wanted a different director each film, to kind of "keep things fresh" as they put it.. but since CR, they've offered returning offers to both Martin Campbell and Marc Forster - both declined..

    they are hoping that Sam Mendes will stick around to do a couple more - as i'm sure they'd like to build some kind of continuity directing wise.... it was hinted during the press conference for Skyfall, when asked if Sam will return for the next film or not.... the decision is ultimately Sam's.. if he likes doing the movie - i'm sure he'll do another.

    i always felt like Campbell really had no interest in doing Bond, other than it could help advance his career.

    I wasn't faulting Eon. It's just that the "Keep things fresh" mentality isn't helping, and has indeed hurt the franchise (TWINE, DAD).

    I've never seen one of Mendes' films, but since he seems to genuinely care about Skyfall, I want him to stay on.
