  • A time period piece? Set Bond back in the 50s or 60s? People say that will not work because of product placement and Bond is current to the time he is in. More focus on his naval background? Give Bond a family and have him keep his job a secret fr…
  • There is no other options to take Bond. We have had and seen it all. There is just no more ways to innovate the character and if you do it's not Bond anymore. The only thing they can do is make a great spy action flick and see where it leads.
  • I am really surprised there was no mention of the new 007 game at Gamescom. I thought it was the perfect time to introduce the game to the world. I guess they are waiting until the next actor is announced.
  • Craig is severely overrated. This is not the situation when Connery stepped down. I believe the problem lies with the producers trying to bring Bond back after having him blown up and they have hit a wall on how to do it.
  • We are in a generation where people don't care about filmmaking like they used to. Personally I could care less what they do with 007. The last couple of films have ruined the trajectory for me.
  • It was Pierce Brosnan's Bond that snuck into the Jamaica villa and left a half smoked delectados cigar.
  • I think the next gunbarrel should have Bond walk out in combat gear/ spy fatigues. The suits and tuxedo are overdone.
  • Yea it's probably a bad film but I don't care. Will go see it on opening day weekend and get the Blu Ray when out. I find it odd that every time a bad film of another franchise gets mentioned Bond fans have to bring up Die Another Day and Pierce Br…
  • No Time to Die had a bigger problem that lead up to the ending. It's the whole non-sense plot that seems to borrow from Metal Gear (Foxdie) and some bits of Everything or Nothing (nanobots). The EoN game handled the nanotechnology stuff better. I…

  • I have no problems with them killing Bond if they say this is it. Stop the rumors of Bond #7. The franchise is finished. You have 25+ movies to enjoy. James Bond will not return. But no they say he will return. Bond is not that sci fi nor he is a…

  • I had no issues with the action or drama from Craig's era. He was a great Bond but I just heavily disagree having the character blown to smithereens. Ok he got shot multiple times but is still able to climb and stay alive. Oh that's not enough to ki…

  • Craig was a great Bond still don't like the idea of his ending. It felt forced and it became a parody of the Austin Powers character Mustafa where he gets shot and mangled up but is somehow still alive. If they want to do that this should be the end…

  • If they can kill Craig's Bond and have a new James Bond in a different iteration then what is stopping producers from bringing back villains that Bond killed over the years? Why not redo and come up with a new iteration of Goldfinger/Oddjob? They d…
  • I am surprised there has not been any new news about Bond video games so far. It would be nice to hear which systems will Project 007 be on. GoldenEye Remaster should have been officially announced by now. Agent 64 Spies Never Die should be releasin…
  • Craig might of had an idea to pay homage to Fleming. Fleming did kill off Bond and resurrected him in the next novel. It's just weird because we are used to seeing Bond get out alive every time only escaping death by an inch.
  • Remember the Connery flms where they made Bond seemingly die at the beginning? NTTD is just doing it at the end. They made Bond seemingly die. I am sure they will have an explanation in the next movie how he survived.

  • Just saw it. didn't like it. The death was a cheap move to try a shock factor ala Logan, Tony Stark or the Marvel universe. So Bond could not die after getting shot multiple of times so let's have him die by a barrage of missles. James Bond is not …
  • There is uncertainty with this virus. Hell it might evolve into something else and be worse by Nov. We might even be dead by Nov. To me there is nothing wrong with putting the film on a streaming service and charging top dollar for it. I am willing…
  • I mean Damn it's just a question of what they are gonna do. With the way you Bond fans act it's starting to get as bad as the men children fanboys of the Star Wars franchise. I am not putting your beloved series in negative light by asking if there …
  • What's everyone ganging up on me for? I said I was willing to support the film. Even going far as paying 200 dollars to watch it on a streaming service for only one view. You are going to the point like I don't wanna support this film and are trying…
  • I am willing to pay top dollar to have this movie released on a prestigious streaming service. This virus might be worse come November. I got a feeling the film is undone or Craig is not satisfied to the point of using the delay to reboot scenes.
