    When was the last stand alone Superman film? By the time the new’ one’sto be released, it’ll be twelve years.

    There was 11 years between Batman standalones.

    And date of release of NTTD and today is only three years.

    What’s your point @Colonel_Venus

    I also hope you note that the examples above were also in transition and recasting….and i don’t think Bond will take 11 or 12 years to return to cinemas, so…..

    I’m so sick of hearing Christopher Nolan’s name in relation to Bond. It’s tiring.

    I don't think any professional filmmaker throws together a film, even those who make smaller films not of the scale of a Bond film.

    It could be worse, page 1000 without Bond news.

    💯 💯 💯

    No one sets out to make a crappy flick. Steven Seagal films see ppl behind the scenes trying to make the best damn film they can with budget (and leading man) constraints.

    In spite of all best efforts, some movies just stink, but that was no one's intention.

    If you're referring to the Bond actor page, that discussion page started in 2011. We've had three Bond films since then... and this page started in 2015.

    It's funny cause we either close these threads temporarily due to a lack of news and discussion, leaving members upset (understandably so) there's nowhere to discuss the future, or we keep them open and the tone is generally sarcastic, aggressive, and repetitive for hundreds and hundreds of pages.

    I look forward to our first news in a couple more years' time at most and seeing the attitudes and atmosphere hopefully change for the better.

    We should write a script. Every time one comes onto the site, they should go to the Mi6 Community Bond Script and add a line, a scene, a sequence, or a dialogue scene. Or more.

    Could be a fun community exercise…………or could lead to a verbal bloodbath.

    But @peter, you'll bring your best Tarantino, I'll bring my best Kevin Smith, @Creasy47 will bring his best Michael Mann, and we all end up with a cacaphony of words that makes our script look like something Tommy Wiseau put together. 😄

    @DarthDimi , although the spec transactions are running at historic lows, it still does exist.

    With the winning formula you mention above, I suggest we write on spec and then go wide with it, dazzling the studio system. They won’t be able to help themselves. There WILL be a bidding war. It’ll sell for five million. There will be awards aplenty and we will teach EoN how it’s done.


    Then, they’ll sue us (something about copyright something or other, and ownership on something or someone)…

    Trust me. This will be the greatest adventure any script could possibly take: from blank page, to riches, to awards, to lawsuits and embarrassments, to rags, and then jail.

    Very much off topic, but I maintain The Room is an inadvertent masterpiece (in its own anyway, and not for the right reasons) that always brings viewers watching it in a theatre together… I’m not ashamed to say I’ve seen it way more times than Citizen Kane, haha.

    So in my mind potentially yes, no script on these forums will get to the heights of The Room.

    Blasphemy!

    Our little project will have people throwing spoons at the screen, so help me god.

    @DarthDimi please make a note: we need spoons, and lots of spoons in every other scene. This is the “interactive” part of our film, keeping our audiences attention to the details of our scenes, and every time they see spoons, they will throw them at the screen.
    It’s brilliant. This thing is writing itself!

    And our Bond needs to be unique, like Nic Cage’s Superman was gonna be unique. .. I got it: our Bond will have long, wavy black hair. Past his shoulders. But we’ll keep the comma… And our Bond will have only one foot. People will wonder, why only one foot? But we won’t tell them, adding mystery and subtext……

    EDIT:
    And @DarthDimi … we cast one person as Felix ……. Our own @talos7 !! And the inside joke is that Bond will keep calling him Wolverine, with no explanation (our inside joke that Talos looks like Jackman’s Wolverine).

    I’m seriously crapping out gold nuggets here.

    And we just found our title: GOLD! (and yes, I think the exclamation gives it more gravitas, so it stays!!).

    Thanks @talos7 , not only will you be the best Felix committed to screen, you’re also one of the creatives now. You’ll get an acting and writing credit AND an executive producing credit. Ready to become famous?!!

    Oh, nice idea. Instead of us waiting for Nolan or Villeneuve to show EON how it's done, we should show EON first. Also, shouldn't guys like @DEKE_RIVERS & @Colonel_Venus be the perfect directors for this our upcoming fan-made Bond film? Because they frequently pick on EON. So I can't wait to see their own vision for a Bond flick.

    Oh yes, they should TOTALLY direct! Why don't we add @Mendes4Lyfe on there too, since filmmaking is super easy according to all three!

    Oh, is that right? That's means the fan-made Bond film would be better than From Russia With Love.

    6 foot with black hair and blue eyes, though only 24. But I think we should have a young Bond to appeal to the target Gen Z audience.
