Crazyman Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 No idea what to think. Checking some of his past work shows he's gotten good critical reception but on totally different movies (aka non-mainstream). SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT TO THINK!

Georgy Zhukov Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I've heard good things about Beast of No Nation. He directed season one of True Detective which got praises across the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checking some of his past work shows he's gotten good critical reception but on totally different movies (aka non-mainstream). SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT TO THINK! I will happily tell you what to think. I think it is a blessing in disguise. First, the delay. No more rushed jobs and it’ll be nice to have a break from the November window finally. Give them some time to really knock it into shape. Cary is a director/writer who is used to television deadlines so he’ll definitely fit in with the Bond team and working under pressure. Getting him to polish the P&W script means we’ll probably end up with a better film than whatever Boyle wanted. Casino Royale and Skyfall both started life as P&W scripts with some refinement later on. I was never totally crazy on the idea of a Boyle Bond. Cautiously optimistic, and then when he dropped out I feared the film could end up being a production he’ll disaster. Now we’re back on track and arguably in a better position than we were. And if they decide they want a film out for 2022 we’re all but guaranteed Craig will do one more after this one. There’s no way they rush cast a new Bond to fast track a film for the 60th. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgy Zhukov Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Craig keeps saying this will be his last film. They'd have to write a lot of 0's on his check to get him to do another film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 We'll see. Every other Craig film has been a bit of a stinker: ''...Quantum...Spectre'' so hopefully it will turn out good in the end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgy Zhukov Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I just hope the next villain won't have anything personal connected, nor the Bond girl be a daughter of a henchman. Oh and no rape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think that last part would be the easiest to forgo, yet the last two movies have been amongst the worst in the entire series for those type of scenes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appetite4illusions Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 They need to bring back the character of JAWS and they need to modernize him; a hitman who wears silver chompers. More than that, they need to cast Michael Shannon. Michael says several times a week, people tell him he looks like Jaws, so, this is no strech. Hey, if they're going to bring back Blofeld, they've got a golden opportunity here to do something retro with one of today's best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Well it was strictly a reboot, the Craig era (which always surprised me, that the same Bond in Dr No, was active in Die Another Day, canonical haha). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really loved Skyfall. But that scene just proves that even in 2012, attitudes towards sex hasn't changed much since Goldfinger (another favorite of mine) when Bond raped Pussy in the barn.

Powerage5 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Don’t think I’ve ever seen anything from this new director. Guess I’ll check some of his stuff out before I form an opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went with a friend who has watched a few marathon showings of Bond with me before and she literally fell asleep during Spectre at the theater. I was yawning pretty heavily.

DieselDaisy Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 It is flawed, not to the extent that Quantum was, but still flawed nonetheless. To be honest I didn't like the whole premise of everything being connected, including the villains from all the Craig films, as well as Bond and Blofeld's lineage. It was all a bit forced and too coincidental, all a bit ''Star Wars prequelly'' (e.g. Vader building C3PO!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tying in Blofeld to Quantom could have been cool but it was handled very poorly. Also linking Silva was juat stupid. It all felt like a cheap throwaway line without being thought out "Oh by the way, we are brothers. Also, did I mention all the other bad guys and your misfortunes were planned by me to a T? Bwahahaha" ...and then its never elaborated on again 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I get its a fictional character so you can play with the format etc but what for? I mean whats the reason for having a black fella be Bond?

He is of Scottish-Swiss descent, Andrew Bond, of Glencoe, and Monique Delacroix, of Canton de Vaud. Ian Fleming envisioned him thus, Clearly not a ''fella brother''.
