  • I think Harry Styles is a silly suggestion. It's up there (or down there!) with Daniel Radcliffe. You can't suggest any actor that pops into your mind. Well, you can but you gotta expect negative reaction. For example - if I said Lee Ryan as Bon…
  • I think the Metoo movement means the next Bond won't be going around having casual sex with women. Personally I'd like Bond to remain a healthy (or should be an unhealthy?) sexist but times have changed and if the next Bond film goes back to the Con…
  • Carlos Ezquerra was an absolute legend of UK comics. Very sad to hear of his passing. He co-created the legendary Judge Dredd and Strontium Dog comic book characters for 2000AD. It's no exaggeration to say Carlos Ezquerra was the artistic heart and…
  • Rainbow presenter Geoffrey Hayes: https://news.sky.com/story/rainbow-presenter-geoffrey-hayes-dies-aged-76-11514303 RIP.
  • Did you know* There are more cat videos uploaded online than anything else. There are more images of cats online than images of people! This proves that cats are the superior beings and should rule the Earth. *(some of the above is pro…
  • Apparently the Labour Party plan to vote on a second referendum at their conference this week. If the vote goes through it will mean Labour's official position is to reject the Chequers plan, reject a no deal but support a second referendum. Labour…

  • Floating Timeline? No, not heard of that exact term. Doctor Who has a floating timeline, I guess. Past, present and future continuity. If Bond dies in Bond 25 - fair enough. It will divide some fans but I'm sure they'll get over it.
  • It's a hard concept to grasp. Feels a bit gimmicky. Batman has never died in his films. I doubt Indiana Jones will die in the next Indy film. Possible, but unlikely. Death is meant to be permanent. Bond dying but returning in the next film does u…
  • Wolverine doesn't have 24 films. He's a less established film hero. If Eon sell up, if Bond 26 is delayed for several years - then yeah, okay, your idea could work. But if we go from Bond 25 - Craig's Bond dies - to two/three years later with ne…

  • If Bond dies in Bond 25 - and it's a clear non-ambiguous death - we see his body, he is buried - how can he return in Bond 26? He's dead! LOL The only way to kill off Bond is not to show his actual death. I dunno, Bond falls off a mountain and we…

  • Theresa May has given a speech in Downing Street.. and it's just waffle. "We must be prepared for a no deal." She is about as pro-active as a tortoise during a hibernation season. Her Chequers deal has been a humiliation. I think she should go - …
  • Peter wrote: No, Fukunaga is not like David Lynch (as someone had said today!). Fukunaga is soooo his own visionanry. He's special. Unique. Masculine and visceral. I think we have to be realistic. Barbara Broccoli calls the shots. Indeed, …
  • I think we may be all guilty of building this up into something that isn't that dramatic. More countries in the world operate under WTO rules than under EU rules. 164 countries are currently members of the WTO. If we leave the EU next …

  • One actor that could have had potential back in 2005 and who knows, if you don't mind an older Bond, could still have potential.... Ioan Gruffudd: Peter wrote: It's a shame-- a real bloody shame-- that Madden seems so short. I got my h…
  • Bond 25 is out Feb 14 2020 - it's official! - so the earliest time for Bond 26 is 2022? Enough time for lots of new names to pop up. :)
  • Great news. :) I like the fact the director was not on everyone's radar. Seems an interesting, unexpected choice... and American! It's about time we had an American director have a go at Bond. The delay isn't too long. I'd rather have a delay tha…
  • No pleasing some folk! Well what about Daniel Craig just before he got the role? What would your honest opinion be of his looks in 2004? I prefer this one: See, some of you might have said "don't want ginger haired Bond!" - "Don't…
  • I think fans assume writing a Bond screenplay is relatively easy? I mean we all know the basic structure, but it's hard to come up with fresh stuff and if you're interested in 'character' (which Babs is) then you have to find a way to delve into Bon…
  • Bond 26 could be released in 2022 (!) so he's got time to make sure he has a gap in his schedule! Heck, I doubt most actors can plan a year ahead let alone three. 2022? That feels yonks away.
  • Mentioned before.. could Outlander actor Sam Heughan be someone on Eon's radar? https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/entertainment/tv-radio/outlander-star-sam-heughan-backed-13267119 Looks quite good here:
  • A female 00 agent makes sense. I mean, it gives Eon a legitimate reason to have a strong female action role in a Bond film. I know we had Jinx in DAD but she was an American type spy (NSA) and her character was a little cartoony. A proper female 00 …
  • An action film set in a football stadium - seems such an obvious idea! I wonder if it's been done before? There have been films such as The Manchurian Candidate where there's a big crowd at a conference centre or something similar and the hero ha…
  • I'd rather have a new Bond film introduce a female 00 agent. She assists Bond on the mission. I think an actual female James Bond - Bond has changed gender! - is too radical and controversial. And let's face it, Ian Fleming would have hated the ide…
  • Final Score has just come out on streaming and in some theaters. It's described as Die Hard in a football stadium. No sign of Bruce Willis, though. ;) Brossy has a strange European accent!
