Always ;)
Call it a dramatic Craig'ish memory.
We are British ,we dont do things like that old friend...
No Craig goes and no death....a one off Bond film with our new 007 ,not too big,save that for his second mission,introduce him first ...business as usual.
Basically MAKING A BOND FILM..
Spot one old boy..!
Bond presumed dead happened two films ago, so yes, that's hardly an original idea.
Hahaha!
Boyle's big idea, perhaps? Just kill everyone – making the most shocking Bond film ever?
The film begins with Bond doing something quite anti-heroic, to our amazement (Like Bond killing M). Then we soon realize that ex-007, having quit the service in SP, is now a very expensive gun for hire in the vein of Scaramanga. He is hired by an oligarch that has some plans of his own. Bond joins the villain's ranks and seems to have the fun of his life on the dark side of things, enjoying the luxurious life in Dubrovnik and the Dalmatian coast, and then, just then, while all seems very, very surreal, Bond sabotages the whole thing. Only then it's revealed that the leaving the service thing was a mission itself, something sanctioned secretly by M himself (who is not really dead). Oh, and no henchman, Bond would be the henchman, with a quirk of his own, a signature if you'd like.
See? Done right it could be cool. Not that it's a completely original ideia, but if the organics of the piece were done differently, juggling with the audience and our pre conceived ideia of who James Bond should be, it would be fun.
Thanks, @Superintendent. It would be a good chance to see our man messing about in a very villainous way, while having non supervised fun. A more borderline Bond if you may. Craig could pull it off nicely. I could write it all in two weeks time or less, and make the script oscar worthy ;) (I know that would please BB)
The way I'd write it, and if they like Fleming and the early Connery flicks, they'd love it (a mix of TMWTGG and YOLT novels, maybe). And while it would be a bit avant guarde, it would be more classic Bond than the last two films, that's for sure.
Anyway, I think we are paying too much attention to The Sun.
I love that pitch. Far more interesting and unique than simply Bond dying or something. I’d love to see Craig tackle that. Excellent idea @Univex!
I'm with you 100 percent. The frustration is warranted at this point.
I'd actually like that as a film with Dalton.
This. Moreover, it doesn't have any point since we all know he'll return in the next one.
This is really cool, actually. It's pretty much a modern adaptation of TMWTGG's novel premise, except with the twist at the end.
Agreed. In Skyfall it worked because we knew all along he didn't die (heck, it was shown in the trailers) and it was never meant to be a twist.
If Bond is killed of, then I wont bother watching the film. I didn't see SP on the big scree, because I was already sick of the direction, so it isn't that hard to do. It's bad enough that they are hell bent of removing any mystery Bond had.
