  • I'll watch the teasers and trailers and stuff as they become available. I'll certainly get the soundtrack album (I have them all) - maybe a book about it if there is an interesting looking one about. That's pretty much it really.

  • I actually think Christopher Nolan is a pretty realistic choice now, and could actually see it happen one day. Sam Mendes I thought was a surprisingly big name to see doing a Bond movie. In a way I think he was as much the star of Skyfall as Craig. …
  • There are bad games. There are awful games. There are absolutely unforgivably SHITE games... and then there is 007 Legends. That is all.
  • On the strength of this I think "The Cardigans" would have been a good bet. Although I haven't heard anything about them in years so I'm not sure if they are still together now. I could easily imagine this as a Brosnan era Bond ditty.

  • I wouldn't say it's lost any of it's gloss or appeal. I still think it's absolutely wonderful. However, one has to admit that the story isn't really very complicated is it? It is actually pretty straightforward. It's just done extremely well.
  • My older brother (who I not like) is convinced about the code-name theory and says that one day they'll do one with "all of them" in it. I said if that's the case and they are all different agents - why do two of Roger Moore's and one of Timothy …
  • I think the way Our Man finds Della Leiter dead in Licence To Kill is absolutely bloody horrible. Especially cause of what the bad guys probably did to her before they killed her. Really, really nasty.
  • Fleetwood Mac. Surprised they didn't do one years earlier - but they are still in very rude health and still a very viable option. Thing is, do we want a Lindsey Buckingham led rocker or a Christine McVie/Stevie Nicks led ballad? Maybe they could…
  • OK. This REALLY IS my last word on the matter. Once I've made this post I am going to un-bookmark the thread. Like I've said countless times I would have no problem with a black actor playing the role - as long as it's not stunt casting and the f…
  • I'm not necessarily saying I actively WANT Bond to be black - but if one day when they are looking for a successor and there's a fella out there with the right chops - I don't think his being black should be a problem. I'd see the movie and as a fan…

  • I was born in 1978 inbetween The Spy Who Loved Me and Moonraker so by that rational it's Moore. Although if asked who my Bond is I say Brosnan cause Goldeneye was the first one I saw at the cinema, and that's the era I really remember making most…

  • OK. Let's put an end to this Shaft comparison. The lyrics to the Shaft tune explicitly say that he's The black private dick who's a sex machine to all the chicks The Bond tune never at any point says that he is white. Think about it.

  • I'm ending my involvement here. The point I'm trying to make is I don't care if a black man gets the gig. Anyone deserves it if they're good enough regardless of colour. End of.

  • At last! A bit of reason! Thank you thelivingroyale and Agent007391 !!!
  • My vitriol was aimed more at the people who were saying they'd "give up their love" for the movies if a black man was cast. I feel that is quite an extremist view and I found it rather offensive. Also the blurring between fiction and reality I fo…
