Boyle Said No
Fincher is American and we all know that outdated rule
Spielberg is to famous
Nolan is to busy and would want to much control
Hooper Wants to and I think is free
and that sums up all the rumored directors
If i was a gambing man it's either Hooper or a director we haven't discussed yet
Same with me, I was more upset of the change over after CR.
But if I had to put money on it today I'd say it will either be Hooper or Wright.
@TheWizardOfice yet again, your remarks are genius.
That said, and at the risk of bringing the world down around my head, do you seriously think Mathew Vaughn has remotely the experience to helm a project as big as this?
Joe Wright I understand particularly after Hanna albeit if instead of making a fake Blaise movie, he'd shot the real thing, he'd have his own billion dollar franchise to nurture!
Finally, I share your point about non Brits but do you think you could make a small exception for Soderburgh?
I'm not saying that he would have of made Skyfall 2 but I think the emotional weight would have been amped up and I'm wanting something a little more playful and relaxed with the next one.
We've got to the point at the end of Skyfall where things have been reset ready for the next phase, with a male M, Q and Moneypenny back the next step is to make that ten plate work in a contemporary setting.
I'd like to see Craig really build on that Bond we saw in Macau strutting his stuff and looking deadly. Another director should be able to bring fresh perspective and not be a Mendes clone.
Sam's success helming Bond 23 has shown his peers what can be done, it is going to be interesting seeing who gets the job, someone mentioned Thomas Alfredson, I believe he'll be busy with Smiley's People and I don't want to see the production of that film upset by anyone not even Bond 24.
I think if he can pull off a feat with X-Men First Class - a franchise that many had lost faith in and requires a certain balances considering the amount of characters involved - then I don't see why he couldn't do the same with Bond. I think he'd do a great job.
;)
That was me. Considering how much Skyfall "borrowed" from TTSP, director Alfredson seemed like a good choice. All in all, I wish they'd consider doing "The Honourable Schoolboy" first.
Too bad for Mendes though ! I'm afraid we'll get another yes man as director...
Sorry @ TheWizardOfice can't agree with this. I think he'd be disastrous now Thomas Alfredson as mentioned by @shardake, that would be inspired.
Then again maybe not!

Although his 2nd unit work is top notch...!
But although he's a good choice for Bond 24 director, it's not the end of the world. He did a good job with SF but the series doesn't need him to survive and to keep the quality up.
I'm sure that they'll find somebody else that can do a good job, and we still have Logan writing the script.
And this probably means no more Thomas Newman! :D
Danny Boyle or Edgar Wright would be my choices.
