Cinemas play at reference level volume. Every film should sound to the viewer to be at the same volume whichever cinema you see it in.
I'm sure I've experienced varying levels of sound from cinema to cinema. Not all the time of course, but in certain cases.
I have for sure.
But im talking a while ago,i'm sure things have changed.
And I live in a small town (with other nearby cinemas also in small towns); none of the cinemas are ideal I think when it comes to sound and overall experience. Nor do I think they care whether they play to a reference level volume or not.
MY NAME IS BOND
I think that would work with a new actor in the role. If it's released in 2022 (which it won't!) that title would be a nice way to sum up 60 years of the franchise.
As for the plot, AI/Robots vs the 00 division would be a strong plot. Perhaps a bit sci-fi in tone but that would be a departure from the more gritty-ish vibe of Craig's Bond films. I would like to see a big shift in tone for the next Bond actor. I don't mean invisible cars but something a more more sci-fi to make the franchise feel a bit more fantastical. Craig's era was influenced by the Bourne films and Jack Bauer 24 tv show but Bond 26 will be in the third decade of the 21st century so it seems the ideal time to change the narrative tone.

The reason why the legacy has lasted so long is because it hasn't strayed too far from the roots that Fleming wrote, and each time it does depart it is usually seen as a mistake, which is rectified by the following movie.
I'd like them to keep at least one cast member as a hold over. Keeps the unbroken link back to Dr No.
However of the current lot only Whishaw really works IMO. Harris is okay but not great and Fiennes can go. Fiennes is the biggest disappointment for me. Although perhaps he'd work better with a younger Bond.
This reminds me of where the Batman film series would go after Christian Bale and Christopher Nolan. The Dark Knight trilogy was the best Batman films ever made after them the franchise went to shit IMO. I worry this will be the same with Craig. I hope im wrong.
I don’t think we’ll see bond 26 any earlier than 2024.
It took Eon 5 years just for a spectre sequel. Imagine how long a whole reboot would take
Only the uninformed think otherwise.
What a depressing thought? :((
One can wish...
Do you really think another company involved won't take more advantages of the property than EON do.
Universe building is what franchises are all about now, if someone else gets this, they'll Marvel it to death and they won't do with it what you want them to do, unless of course @Birdleson you are ponying the money up for its rights.
I know you are disappointed where the series has gone and it isn't your bag but if this slips out the hands of the family that bought it to the world and nurtured it ...... well be careful what you wish for, you might just get it.
Only one film released in the 2020's, no films released in the 2030's and then a HUGE comeback for Bond's 80th anniversary in 2042.
Barbara will be in her 80's like Cubby was and will have finally gotten the desire to pursue other projects out of her system and focus 100% on Bond.
In all seriousness I'm hoping there isn't another long gap, but with a recast and probable re-boot, I wouldn't be surprised if 2024/2025 is the earliest we see another film.
The one tiny shred of hope that B26 may come sooner than later was the rumor Phoebe was asked to come back for the next film. Perhaps Eon is looking ahead post Craig?
This is my, rather realistic, great expectation.
I would love that!
If the focus were truly based on creating a Fleming-esque thriller, then it wouldn't require enormous gaps. I'd take story and characters over big budget gimmicks any day.
Well said. I couldn't agree more.
... I think we should all take seriously that the man is done. He has said it is his last. His director has been quoted as saying that when he came on board he knew it would be the last. Daniel Craig has shot his last bullet.
My bet is this film will make it a very hard stop for this era. Enjoy the ride.
