  • (The following comments about the Bourne franchise are well known to all Bond fans so I'm not offering anything that hasn't been discussed before.) Craig's Bond has been subconsciously or deliberately influenced by the Jason Bourne spy franchise.…
  • I think it's worked out for the best. No idea why she would return. Silly gimmick, perhaps. Oh well, there's always Bond 26, Grace. :D

  • Boyle's new film 'Yesterday' has been released this week. It was the film he was making (in post production) during his pre-production work on Bond 25. Yesterday has a 60 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes. I'm guessing his Bond 25 would have got a hi…
  • Pardon the morbid humour but 'A Reason To Die' sounds like a documentary or feature film about euthanasia! Octopussy is a wacky title but it works so given the context, seeing the actual film and plot, 'A Reason To Die' could work and make sense.…
  • Casino Royale - Bond goes to Casino Royale. Quantum of Solace - Bond fights criminal organization known as Quantum. Skyfall - Bond returns to his family home called Skyfall. SPECTRE - Bond fights criminal organization known as SPECTRE (Quan…
  • A Reason To Die - I suppose that could link in to the rumour Craig's Bond was going to die at the end of the film. How about: For Love, Hate And Reason "Why do you do your job, Mr Bond?" "For love, hate and reason." If A Reason …

  • Getafix wrote: » You are probably right. But your comments about Hemsworth seem contradictory. You point out that he can't be Bond because has no BO appeal beyond Thor but then say that BO appeal is not required to be Bond. Which is it? I agre…
  • Getafix wrote: I've been saying Hemsworth for a while. The Ozzies have an old school masculinity and charisma few can match. To put it bluntly, Chris Hemsworth has zero box office appeal. I looked at the box office stats for his 2015 f…
  • Chris Hemsworth's latest film is bombing - MIB International. I wouldn't be surprised if his agent/press people release stuff about him wanting to be the next Bond. Outside of Avengers or Thor it's arguably his only chance of big box office - such…
  • Fassbender could be an interesting Bond but I doubt he's going to be the next Bond. If this new spy film becomes a franchise it will rule him out. According to the following rumor, Henry Cavill is not returning as Superman: June 14 2019 …
  • True or not, the Sun item is amusing. I like the idea of a director hired to make a 200 million dollar action film and he's off playing video games. "Screw this, I'm playing Goldeneye instead!" Daniel pops in to see Cary. "Can I have a go, …
  • Re the Sun article - could Craig's injury limit his action potential in the rest of the film? What I mean is, if I were in the producers' shoes I'd be reluctant to risk Craig doing too much action for fear of another injury. Use stuntmen, wide angl…
  • This is why actors are hired to act. Thinking is not their forte. I'd stick to acting, Daniel, and leave the thinking part to others. :D Barbara Broccoli made it clear James Bond will remain a man. I know Babs loves Daniel but she's not going to…
  • Based on the photos of Craig's injury, it looks more serious than some might have thought. That seems quite a bad injury. It's not just a bandage round the foot kind of thing. There could be a longer delay than previously mentioned? Bond 25 -…
  • Seeing Daniel Craig in crutches was a bit depressing. His grey type stubble didn't help his look. It just brings it home that time (and unfortunate accidents!) wait for no-one. Barbara Broccoli has to realistic and not think Craig is the only…
  • Noel Gallagher has contributed a lot to modern popular music - Oasis in the 1990s and his new solo material in the 2000s. His style of music doesn't really sound particularly Bondian but he's worth considering. Another artist worth consider…

  • I can't see any screenwriter being brave or mad enough to consider this idea but given the huge box office appeal of current superhero films, if there was a way for the new villain to have some superhero power (lol), it might be worth considering f…
  • This is never ever going to happen but had Pierce Brosnan not left the franchise under such a stormy sky - I recall he made a rather negative comment about the producers (!) - I think EON should have considered a sort of Batman The Dark Knight Retur…
  • - Stills: There'll be no photos other than the cover artwork, I'm afraid. I don't have permission and I don't want trouble with EON, Gettyimages, Keith Hamshere, etc. I even tried to make the cover as evocative as I could to the film's subject. …
  • The backstory to all the actors that 'almost' became Bond would have made for a great Bond documentary: Almost Bond - the definitive story.
  • The Sonic The Hedgehog film was set to be released November 2019 but now delayed until 14th Feb 2020 because people didn't like the look of Sonic and his long human type legs. Had Bond 25 stuck with its Feb 14th 2020 date it would have been Bond vs …
  • I wonder if the delay in making IJ 5 is down to Ford's age. Perhaps Disney regretted the decision announcing another Indiana Jones film but they're stuck with it! I'm sure it will do decent box office but Ford's age will be an easy way to criticize …

  • Could Craig's injury make Eon less enthusiastic about using Craig for some of the action in Bond 25? What I mean is, if they and the director have planned various scenes with Craig - close up shots of him in action, stuff storyboarded - perhaps they…

  • The trailer shows a Mexico sign - the group appear to heading to Mexico which mirrors the start of the second act of Terminator 2. I think they may be playing it safe with the plot. The content about (Spoiler) looks like a fresh direction but my g…
  • Perhaps Disney will ditch it. Hard to imagine an 80 year old action hero bringing in the big box office. Anything is possible, though! :-O
