  • In Hollywood, there is always a way to bring anyone back - character/actor or both. Impossible is just not in their vocabulary. Especially, following 1.1 billion in grosses. Never say never.

  • Maybe we should give EON and some of the creatives behind the scenes some credit for being able to still come up with new adventures for Bond without resorting to another reboot or an unheard of turn that might backfire. I feel that some more tradit…
  • I personally try to keep in mind what Mendes has recently said (only about a week ago) about wanting SPECTRE to be not just a classic Bond film but a classic thriller. And exploring the "creation myth" - which I interpret to mean bringing Craig's Bo…
  • Just wanted to say that I am so glad to see some real optimism regarding SPECTER on here: doubleoego, Gustav_Graves and others. After all the dust settles later this year, all the other spy films have come out, the leaks issue becomes a lesser is…

  • The Mexico scenes certainly have yellow cast to them, but I feel they do evoke a dusty, late afternoon feel during which the scene is supposedly set - although, I do hope it skews a bit less yellow and more towards a fuller color pallet in the final…

  • Thanks! Glad to be here. Exciting times to be a Bond fan.
