    How about the gunbarrel in the middle of the movie? Just kidding.

    Would love to have it integral to the PTS narrative and plot.

    I would love it if Bond 24 just cut to black right in the middle of the film and the gun barrel flashed for just a few seconds, enough to anger the fans that give a crap about the thing.

    I would prefer the PTS at the beginning too, but don't make an obsession of it.

    I wanna see a gun barrel every time a bad guy points a gun at Bond. =))

    I'd prefer the gun barrel at the beginning (since when did tradition become a crime?), but that is among the lesser of my gripes with the current films.

    Gun barrel should be at the very beginning. Just finished reading solo and would like the
    henchman to hang people up on a hook, but maybe thats too gruesome for cinema bond

    Haven't read the book yet. Was it more gruesome than what we saw in Octopussy?

    I'm not sure what you're talking about, but I can assure you that the scene in SOLO is more gruesome than anything we've ever seen in a Bond screen.

    He's alluding to the spin saw I assume. Which leaves most to the imagination.

    Actually he's referring to the scene in which Bond hides from Khan's men in a room where corpses are being hung by meat hooks.

    To me? No. I'd say it was more...sadistic. Though I need to give Octopussy a rewatch one of these days. It's been a good year or two since I last saw it.

    Thanks. Sounds like it would make for a funny Bond spoof. :))

    I want a villain to use a navaja or such exotic weapon.

    So, like Casino Royale? And an exotic weapon would be cool. How long has it been since we've seen one of those?

    In CR, Kratt used a balisong to cut a hole in the seat of Bond's torture chair and take out the tracking device in his arm. In SF, Silva had the dueling pistols.

    Not exactly like CR. I was thinking more at the very beginning, thus as usual, but then it becomes part of the narrative: the camera does a travelling and you see the dead sniper, Bond walking casually towards him, or something.

    Regarding the exotic weapon, apart from Silva's pistols we had Obanno using a machete. But a navaja or a scimitar would be cool.

    1. Gun barrel at the start
    2. The return of BLOFELD
    3. More humor
    4. robert richardson or roger deakins for the photography
    5. moneypenny in action field
    6. The aston martin in action
    7. More gadgets
    8. Reference to other 00 agents
    9. A ian fleming title (risico, the property of a lady, the hidlebrand rarety)
    10. The return of Quantum

    11.Litte rectification: instead of robert richardson( who will certainly make the hateful eight for tarantino when bond 24 will be shot ) i'd see emmanuel lubezki or janusz kaminski or claudio miranda for the photography after all.
    12.And bring back adele for the title song.
    13.And always want to see 007 to be confronted to a villainess who would be his equal ( maria freudenstein anyone ? ) cate blanchett, charlize theron , or angelina jolie would be perfect !
    14. The return of the best henchmen ever: Jaws, with dwayne johnson for the role !
    15. If adele isn't available i would go for u2 or john legend.

    I agree. I've mentioned before a quick line and explanation to Q wouldn't go a miss. It could be by him just offering Bond tea and taken from there. He can mention the fall of the Empire and what have you.

    Yes I was also thinking about a conversation with Q, since we know he is fond of earl grey.

    Is this dislike for tea something Fleming wrote about?

    Yes, in Thunderball, while Bond is at the health farm.

    AND Goldfinger. he extensively tells a woman, it might be Mary Goodnight I am not sure, to make some coffee because tea is mud, or something of the sort. Fleming hated tea and he incorporated it to his character.

    Also, in Silverfin, Charlie Highson explains that Bond's aunt Charmian hated tea as well.

    -Because of the anniversary of WW1, in memory of all the soldiers, I think the should start in Flanders fields.
    - A great opening song/soundtrack (Yello)
    - a trifle more humor
