  • I think it's high time we meet another 00. I wish there was more said about Bond being the best of them. It means little if we never see any of the others.

  • The hype of Nolan directing a Bond film alone would be reason enough to get him in the chair. It would take the series to a new level.
  • Say whatever you want, a Nolan-led Bond film (better yet 2) would blow people's minds. It would take the franchise to the next level, solidify Craig as one of the greatest ever in the role, and make a billion+ at the BO. Anyone against this idea, re…

  • This whole thread is so idiotic. Are there that many 12 year old members on here? Really? Craig is Bond. Fact. He has a 5 film contract with one left. Fact. NONE of the rumors floating around the internet have ANYTHING to do with the reality of the …

  • Just when I thought this thread couldn't get any trashier or ridiculous. Nice work, MI6.

  • Brosnan apologists are out in full force, it seems. Craig trounces him in every way. You'll all have to come to grips with it someday. Just embrace the facts. You'll sleep better at night. ;)

  • Red_Snow wrote: » Finally, some sensible talk from the media: Why Daniel Craig Will Return as James Bond. Yep. Sense from them is rare.
  • How is this latest Mendes link new news? He's said this before within the last few months. Doesn't mean much since he did the same thing before SP. Of course, I'm more inclined to believe him this time. I think he's done.
  • I guess there's been a push for many years to get just such a thing moving forward but the Academy keeps shooting down the idea. Too bad. I bet it happens eventually.

  • Well, I don't think it's happened with Bond actors that had a lot of films; but Laz and Dalts went out on highs, IMO. Craig is the guy that can buck this trend.
  • Listen to Sir Roger, folks. He's knows what he's talking about.
  • Even if true, IF, just because he turned down an offer doesn't mean he's done. He doesn't want to do two films. He might be willing to do one more. Or simply one at a time and then renegotiate after the next one. Settle down, people.
  • Yes, everything @doubleoego said! Well done, sir. =D>
  • But again, they are trying to do something new and fresh with the series. I know there are a lot of old school Bond fans here, myself included, but relying on what worked in the past (episodic mission structure) is not necessarily what will work now…
  • But after 54 years you gotta change even that stuff up once in a while and start fresh. We're still in the reboot timeline now; Bond has changed forever, folks, sorry. Gotta get on board or be left behind. If people don't like it, don't watch the fi…
  • I still can't fathom why anyone believes they are even remotely considering recasting Craig. His films have made 3+ billion. Babs loves him to death; he's at the height of his acting prowess. They got Blofled and Spectre back and a two time Oscar wi…
