Paul King I can see in a weird way. Hopefully it won't be Yates though. Not a Harry Potter fan anyway, but I really don't like his direction on those later films, and his efforts outside that haven't been great.

I don’t think Moneypenny being an assistant or secretary - or indeed both - will matter because I don’t think she’ll be called either. She’ll just function onscreen and do what the story requires (and I think she’ll be given more to do than just fli…

Can't say I'm a fan of Benson. I think he did some pretty poor writing when he was the official Bond author. This isn't really for me either (I like Felix as a character but I'm not sure if I'd be bothered to read an adventure with him and no Bon…

For what it's worth I think there are actors who give off a similar impression to Dalton in that sense and their appearance goes hand in hand with that. It's very possible we could get a quieter, more intense Bond if the right actor turns out to be …

Might just be me, but I think the GE clip looks noticeably better (it’s less stagey, makes better use of camera angles/movement, and the lighting is much more accomplished). Both are good scenes though.

He did a great job with Harry Potter and gave it a slightly darker, more mature tone. That film has a confusing script (which isn’t to do with him) and I don’t like Harry Potter in general, but I can’t fault the direction.

Children of Men is a great film. Roma’s more of a small indie drama. I don’t think many directors will have films that directly point to their Bond vision (short of doing a film like Bond/a very specific type of action or thriller). We can only l…

I think there’s a difference between a director who’s creative, reliable, and established, but perhaps works in different genres/makes different types of films each time they direct, and one that’s simply more run of the mill. Truth be told I’m not …

It’ll definitely be a very stylish film if this all turns out to be the case. But ultimately a good portion will depend on the writers involved too. It could still be a flat film in terms of substance or it could be great (although I suspect it’ll b…
