  • Pierce looking very good. I'm down with him portraying a mature-age Bond. Not to be killed. Maybe even more than one film/streaming long-form TV show. Produce them close together or basically at once. Amazon should be able to pull together enough ex…

  • echo wrote: » Bring on GingerBond! As far as Hoult goes, he has a lot of range. He'd likely be more like a Craig or Dalton in that regard. As far as Hoult goes, he'd be more credible as Jaws than Bond.
  • As for a return of Brosnan-Bond : With Amazon now in charge of the CONTENT, perhaps we CAN see one-offs or doubles, deliberately in different timelines. For example: Brosnan portraying a Bond of his own age, likely still fitter and a better fighter…
  • RE: Lowden When Craig was selected manBond "fans" lost their wee little minds over the fact his hair is blonde. With Lowden a red, oh, good grief, what would ensue ?

  • echo wrote: » Tom Holland and Zendaya in a reboot of Live and Let Die. I don't hate it. Isn't Tom Holland rather short ? There's a reason he got to play Spiderman - he looks like a young, immature, not yet fully grown teenager.

  • With Amazon in control Bond might not even get portrayed by a British or Australian actor.
  • I don't mind so much getting Young Bond, Moneypenny, M stories and other productions in addition to James Bond - and ALL of it streaming moreso than theatrical, and most of it as long-form TV. What I will mind will be atrocious casting done with "th…
  • Agreed re Harry Lawtey. First time I've noted it about one of the younger actors who've been touted on this page

  • ...What Bond scene from the Craig era would be a good screentest? [/quote] Shirtless entering the room ? Nahh -- Bond getting his itch scratched by the villain swinging a knotted rope while Bond sits tied to a bottomless chair. Shows commitme…
  • Clooney's Wayne visiting Alfred in his deathbed lines up somewhat with Brosnan's Bond grieving over Paris on the bed...it's all there, if one but has eyes to see.

  • My humor getting weaker and weaker. Need a new film to consider and blab about. On THAT point, if the money folks want to go Marvel-style with a Bond-verse, and if EON does not want to go that route, then how to break the rumored standoff ?
  • Given the ending of NTTD, in response to Where does Bond go after Craig ? Well, it appeared he went, well, everywhere...Everything Everywhere All at Once...so Craig's Bond's finale scene inspired the title of Bond actor Michele Yeoh's film, eh ?
  • BTW wasn't there some interesting teaser footage at the Jamaica house which did not appear in the film ? Bond creeping around outside the perimeter, seen through windows for the camera POV, with a speargun in hand...
  • mtm wrote: » To be fair, his Jamaica house was lovely and rather well-decorated. I've never noticed before that they slightly botched that bit of character stuff, but then again I guess maybe the idea in Spectre is that he's always overseas in lov…
  • As for "Where does Bond go after Craig ?", well, after seeing his residence in Craig-Bond, he goes to the furniture store...more likely, invites a lovely decorator over...
