I've observed over the years that these rumours tend to have some validity, even if they all don't come to fruition. So perhaps there's something to it? His reactions to being questioned certainly suggest there is.

Get Chris Evans. I think he could make a wonderful addition to the team and has Cruise like energy. Fassbender could definitely lend some 'heft' and gravitas post-Cruise as well.

Thanks @NicNac. Yes, I understood that you weren't necessarily advocating for Madden, and I get your point about the Globes win raising his profile (although, as I mentioned a few weeks back, his profile in the UK and as Bond contender was quite hi…

There are good points on both sides of this conversation. We are in a slightly different place now than we were in 2005, but not entirely different. It will very much depend on the producer's (and more importantly, the studio's) vision for this char…

Agreed, and it's brought to screen beautifully with minimal embellishment. That's why it works. The subtlety of how the romance is delivered onscreen is impressive. It's woven seamlessly into the narrative in an integrated fashion.

I forgot to mention earlier one more small pet peeve of mine, and that's the flashlight or torchlight sequence. I have no problem with Silva finding out about the Church, but the way it happened was a little convenient (even though I appreciate that…

I quite like SF as is. There isn't much I'd change as it is my favourite Craig film at the moment. Some minor recommendations: 1. dump the Omega promo and CGI Craig face in the PTS. It was the beginning of more indiscretions to come in the next f…
