  • Isn’t their next release only a couple months later?
  • https://www.comingsoon.net/movies/news/1192900-paramounts-top-gun-maverick-mission-impossible-7-delayed Well this is bad news… fear of another delay, rising
  • Interesting and agreed. I've read Connery complimenting the books in terms of having all the ingredients in being so successful but not on JB as a character. Not that he didn't, just haven't read. Moore I've never read anything, I don't think he …

  • I guess we can start a countdown for the next Folio too since it should be October, right? Safe to assume TMWTGG.
  • I don’t really agree, @jetsetwilly. It was a mistake of timing for sure to go from new to old with Mendes middle age thematic exploration that no one was asking for. We never got Craig in his dick swinging prime because EON lack confidence and direc…
  • Bond was correctly rebooted in CR, he wasn’t a relic, he knew technology and could hack M and track people, and had a personality that thought of women as disposable pleasures which isn’t past or present, its a trait, but then of course with Mendes…
  • Ever notice how it’s perfectly acceptable to bash LeBeouf and blame him for the movie, but if he wasn’t a white male, you’d be a monster for even suggesting he was bad. I don’t personally think he was bad, but once it gets to the quicksand, fencing,…
  • Agreed. Spielberg did a terrible job with Crystal Skull, it was not all on Lucas.
  • Good news is less vaxxed in US are not the major movie revenue areas
  • Could be most scenic of Indy movies

  • I would think the budget would be scaled down due to the changing market, not just no more Craig, but with Amazon involved, their pockets are so deep, who knows…
  • Ugh I forgot England gets it a week before US… it was so brutal when SP came out And having to resist temptation to read people’s reviews…I could only peek on here and the insane polarization that movie produced…. I didn’t know what to think

  • That consensus is wrong…. It was the execution not the idea
  • F9 has passed 600 million worldwide which is good news and at least they can see a path for NTTD…what exactly is UK’s situation as far a closures or restrictions?
  • I could see delay notice being later this time… just to keep us anxious
  • I don’t expect any of the upcoming new releases before NTTD and Venom doing fantastic and normal so who knows what will happen… it’s a coin toss whether they bite the bullet and release
  • I’m less worried about lavish premiere and more about them postponing again… an uptick in cases could make some states (US) put some restrictions back and even without they may still decide that it’s still not optimal profit time to release
  • PWB does look good. Good costume design even though I didn't want late 60s.
  • All gold, thank you sir @Revelator Born and raised in SF, Herb Caen was already a glorified institution when I was growing up... never knew these two met or that he was a fan of Fleming. Great stuff.
  • Well let’s hope Amazon lights a fire and they actually move sooner rather than later
  • I have faith in Mangold… honestly if I were making it I would probably pretend Crusade and Skull don’t exist and go back to IJ as darker character with a slight mercenary streak and not a Boy Scout with sentimental family ties for comedy… stick to d…
  • The aesthetics are better in early mid 60s… though I suspect it will just be sort of generic 60s space race era… and not hippie culture which i agree Indiana Jones doesn’t fit in. that was anew era coming to the front and the older generation now fe…

  • TSWLM reads to me like a drawn out short story from FYEO... so if you like the short stories and have no set expectations, it is possible to enjoy it.
