  • I know License Renewed is the Gardner book, but it feels appropriate. Maybe License Reinstated? Something else in reference to coming back from the dead would be cool, given... y'know. Beyond the Grave Beyond the Veil Ashes to Ashes
  • Cruel Britannia sounds fantastic! (time to scrap my own Bond plot about a villain using cloud seeding to create a new Ice Age and extort the Global South!) I've had a couple ideas that I've been kicking around for a few years (and hand to god, I …
  • Less a title and more a poster tagline. "You Can't Keep a Good Man Dead."

  • One idea I've had is adapting the brainwasingh plot from TMWTGG and having Bond be one of several spies across the world's intelligence services who've been made into unwitting sleeper agents for the villain. Their trigger word? "Risico."

  • If it wasn't already a Eurovision song, "Rise Like a Phoenix" could be good. "Phoenix Rising" too. It hints at resurrection and Bond's return without being too in-your-face about it.
  • I second Mark Mylod, the guy can clearly bring the style of Bond back. We could also get a Mark Mylod / Nicholas Britell director/composer duo out of it, which would be amazing.

  • I'd like a back-to-basics Bond movie- 007 on a mission to save the world or some large part of it, exotic locales, colorful cast of characters, etc. The Knives Out and White Lotus franchises prove that there's still some appetite for media with one …
  • I hope the next movie is relatively standalone. The response to Glass Onion and White Lotus shows that there's still some appetite for having one familiar character act as a through-line between installments filled with new and different characters.…

  • Love that idea! I had a similar concept, admittedly cribbed from Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. There'd be a massive slush fund (created from the proceeds of the sales of years of villains' siezed assets) the intelligence agencies of the west have…

  • "Where Devils Fear To Tread" It's a little pretentious, but it's a twist on the old saying "Fools rush in where angels dare to tread", and as we all know, twisting an old saying often makes for a Fleming-esque title. The title could refer to the …

  • I'm Gen Z. My first Bond was Casino Royale, first one I ever saw in a theatre was Skyfall. I went to the theatres to watch it and I LOVED IT. Mod Edit - No swearing please.
