That's fine as long as it's someone decent and NOT p or w.
Different times, my friend. Different times.
They can have a break after 2016. ;)
The last time we had three films with two year intervals was in the 90's, so I feel EON need to prove, if only to themselves they can do it again. As long as Bond 25 is being penned by 2014 we'll have no issue, I trust.
Bond has the momentum and guaranteed box office to allow them to plan ahead, so they just need to start work on the next film well in advance - as they seem to have done for Bond 24. Work needs to start three years prior to the film coming out.
It certainly won't be Purvis or Wade. Not after this announcement at least. What would be the point? Though I doubt it would be Peter Morgan either. His comments seem to suggest he was unceremoniously dumped from the project.
I heard he walked out during the scripting phase. Probably because of P and W
To be fair, he did leave on his own and MGM really had no use for a complete crew while their organization was in shambles.
Let's hope Logan does get enough time and we don't have another TND disaster. (Aka the Bruce Feirstein scenario).
I expect a November 2015 release. Haven't you heard Sam Mendes? For 'Skyfall' the whole production was just too long, too enormous. I think looking at the sheer size of productions like 'Casino Royale' and 'Skyfall', I think a 3-year gap is much more credible. Today's Bond films are as big as, let's say, TDK and TDKR. And I don't want to ever see a failure like 'Quantum' again. 'Quantum' more or less suffered from the same problems as 'Tomorrow Never Dies': too short production period.
Moreover, I want the cast for Bond 24 to be an ultimate dreamcast again, like with 'Skyfall'. In order to get all these Oscar winning/nominated cast and crew, you HAVE to schedule the movie for 2015 and not for 2014.
If we are getting a 2014 film we should hear by the Summer at the latest who the director will be.
I always thaught Bond 24 wil be the last one, because of the connections with QOS/Quantum. Iam thinking it be dificult to see some other writers buld on work from other writers. Since it be confirmd Bond 24 wil be out in 2014 mabey it wil happend earlier because the producer the time is given not be enough for P&W. Also the Skyfall wil possible Dench last movie the circle of the a lot discus story about Dench M is finished and P&W started that in Twine. Another point be is that with DAD P&W partly proof there can't deal with the plot subject of DAD/CR then the possible Bond 24 plot wil to dificult to write for P&W too. Then i mean not only the water thing. From the moment someone like Fienes be cast the bells rings :-$ and i am being a litle bit worried %-( X_X but i also expext depth, more then QOS already did. :!! wil tell again more *-:) and mabey also a litle bit of ~X( .
All you need are the right people and Fleming and SF proves this.
Hell, look at the potter movies. They mostly came out every year or two and the movies were fantastic because they largely had the write people and were adapting Rowling's novels but the quality of the movies were never compromised. Bond can easily achieve the same.
We have the brilliance if Logan, we have a stellar cast and especially after SF, you can bet your bottom dollar that actors of the tallest order ate going to want in mow more so than ever. Trust me, CR was a game changer but SF has rewritten the rules of the game.
P/W out
Logan in
Deakins in
Mendes in
Newman in
Fiennes in
Wishaw in
Harris (?)
Story: something with Quantum? Something where the stakes are bigger, less personal?
Locations: India, Afghanistan, Brazil (World Cup!), New York (UN!)
Yeah, but the Potter movies were based on a fairly detailed novel. They had a core story already. With Bond 24, it has to be an original screenplay.
Harris =
True but even with detailed novels it's still easy to mess up. The Bobd movies are guilty of this more than enough times. In the end, as I mentioned, hire the right people and just go back to Fleming. Everything will take care of itself and as someone who has seen SF, I can say SF proves this.
I agree it does (I saw it on Tuesday as well), but remember the writers had three years to write just the script. That's a long time frame, and it was understandable that SF delivered such a great story. I just worry that Bond 24 might be too hastily done. I mean, what great scripts have been written in less than a year?
please
That would be great, but I don't think the story would be relevant in this day and age. The world's space programs just aren't the same as they were when the book was written in the 50s, or even when the film came out at the end of the 70s.
Ooops, did I just spill some classified beans here?
