  • The career of British Prime Minister Theresa May. She has resigned due to the Brexit shambles. Leaves office on June 7th.
  • If Daniel is out of action for a few weeks watching Netflix... er I mean recuperating.... perhaps his 'hunky' (word courtesy of the Daily Mail) stunt double can take over the part. :D
  • A full reboot might have been a more interesting way forward but Terminator Salvation didn't perform too well without Arnie, so I guess the studio don't want to risk a complete reboot with all new cast and no link to Sarah Connor or the Arnold T-800.
  • I'm about 60 percent sold. Too early to know how it will turn out. More liquid metal? Ho hum. It's been done so many times in the films it does feel a bit old hat. I dunno what else a Terminator can use. I suppose it wouldn't be a Terminator film…
  • Two things that crossed my mind... Arnold Schwarzenegger had heart surgery in 2018 so it's extremely unlikely he's going to do a lot of intense action in Dark Fate. I guess much/all of the big stunts and action pieces will be a stuntman with Arno…
  • I think the all-time greatest Bond performance of the entire franchise is in Doctor No when 1) Bond visits charms Miss Taro in her house, he is dominant with her in bed and then finds out she's part of No's scheme to kill Bond. He calls the polic…
  • Somewhat paradoxically Henry Cavill's chances of playing Bond may be higher than ever. His first film after Justice League - Nomis (2018) - never got a theatrical release. Nomis was a low budget film but it's surprising it couldn't get a distributio…
  • The box office is hard to call. On one hand it's a new Bond film and a long-ish gap so the hype level should be huge. On the other hand, Craig's profile has dropped. He hasn't made any big US blockbuster type films since SPECTRE so younger film goer…
  • Thanks for the replies to my initial post. Laurence Harvey is a great suggestion. Most likely a stronger candidate than my choice Terence Cooper. The Independent newspaper: However, as the series progressed, and Connery relaxed into the ro…
  • Internet cat sensation Grumpy the cat. Born with a facial disorder which made her look grumpy all the time. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-48308638 RIP Grumpy. xxx
  • SPECTRE's piranha-infested pool of death disappoints! Daniel Craig tries out his swimming pool and admits "the water's too cold!" Bond shows off his skills on Q Branch's new invisible surfboard! ;)
  • RIP Doris Day. The Jeremy Kyle Show - Not deserving of a RIP as it was terrible show (!) but it was part of the British tv landscape for so long - fourteen years - so I thought it was worth a mention. It was the British version of The Jerry Spri…
  • If Craig had injured his hand they could have gone with Shatterhand as the title. :P Re Bond injuries - Filming TND, Brosnan was left with a permanent scar on his face. Above his top lip on the right side. It's not that noticeable, though.
  • This is history repeating itself. We all know of the knee injury that stalled SPECTRE's production schedule and it's happened again! Craig has had a few injuries during his time as Bond. Brosnan had a running injury when making DAD's pre-credit scen…
  • After all these years I just realised a lightsaber is basically a long white stick with a flashy colour added to it. :P I guess the "woozh" sound made it look cool. The fan fight is cool if a tad overlong, perhaps. The original Vader vs Obi Wan enco…
  • Tom Hughes could appeal to Babs. He is nothing like Craig so his casting would feel fresh. Hughes is good looking but not in a more extravagant way like previous Bond actors. As mentioned above, he could be a grittier Bond. I think the days of the …
  • There's another potentially great comic book character - perhaps the ultimate anti-superhero character: Marshal Law. A superhero who's job is to track down and kill/apprehend rogue superheroes. Arguably the most subversive take on the superhero com…
  • This is one film that doesn't need to be made. Ford is way too old. I guess his stuntmen team will be gainfully employed. Other than that reason, can't see any point to this. It's also doubtful a new rebooted, recast actor in the lead, Indiana Jone…
  • Anyone noticed the director's name kinda sounds like a swearword. I wonder what his nickname was at school. Heh.
  • Eon Productions present Daniel Craig as Ian Fleming's James Bond 007 in: TOO COOL FOR A TITLE And if you want to make it more political: BREXIT, BOND AND BABES

  • But on the positive side - it's good to see filming has begun. :) And one other point, it may not be too wise to keep looking at sites like the Daily Mail. If they're obsessed with Bond 25 and Craig - they're gonna feature loads of filming photos an…
  • Whatever your thoughts on Daniel Craig returning for a sixth - B Brococli wants him back - I reckon the Daily Mail is going full out to criticise Bond 25. A chef, physio and trainer... Daniel Craig is 'DEMANDING a vast team of aides' for Bond f…
  • Univex wrote: » I'm not his biggest fan, that's for sure. But that's to do with his image and with the way I imagine Bond. I like to identify with the character, even physically, and I can't with someone who looks he came in from the cold, from …
  • JBFan626 wrote: » The longer hair doesn't suit Craig as Bond. It accentuates the blondness of him - nothing wrong with blonde hair, but when his hair is shorter, more attention is focused on his face and steely eyes. Yeah, longer hair does…
  • I think this will be Daniel's last film. It's clear the press (some of it, anyway!) is out for him. We've seeing a backlash against him. How whiney Daniel Craig killed James Bond The Sun and the Mail seem to have gone full anti-Craig mode…
  • Re the rumour/nonsense/truth (take your pick) about the crew detesting Craig... I did watch the GMA clip when Daniel mentions the impact the role has had on him and I noticed Naomi Harris body movement moves away from Craig. It does look like not wa…
  • Wow - that page six article is a bit harsh. If it's true it's explosive stuff: The source added of curmudgeonly Craig’s return, “Everyone on the production side detests working with Daniel, he’s so difficult and makes things impossible. But [Bon…

  • I want the name of Bab's botox surgeon or her Ebay supplier! :P (joke, nothing personal) At the risk of inflaming the metoo group, Babs was looking good! She should play a Bond babe... er woman in a future Bond film. Bond 26 with the new Bond …
