Wasn't Henry Cavill in discussion for Bond? He's young enough

 

He's also the guy Amy Pascal referred to last year as "that lame Superman guy".  And he's a bit busy with another franchise.

And what the fuck gives with the terrible ass theme song? That was freaking atrocious. Like listening to nails on a chalk board. This entire movie was a complete bust.

I reckon they'll go for an unknown or a semi-known actor, Craig before Bond had only done a handful of Hollywood films like Tomb Raider and Road to Perdition as well as indie films like Layer Cake. Actually I think it was Layer Cake that secured him the role of Bond. 

 

My current favourites for the next Bond are Dan Stevens and a British actor called James Norton who is IMO going to be hot property very soon, he's starred in a BBC drama called Happy Valley which I think aired on Netflix in which he played a serial killer and also Grantchester which aired on PBS, he's going to star in the upcoming miniseries of War and Peace with Lily James, Paul Dano and Gillian Anderson.

Damien Lewis? Get an actor who can act?

Damian's already in his 40s, he'll be too old by the time Craig steps down.

Craig is done right?

He doesn't have a contract according to Wilson but Barbara Brocolli said last month
 

Quote

“I always say it's like asking the bride as she's walking up the aisle who her next husband's going to be I can't think of anyone else apart from Daniel in that role and until he says he's not going to do it the field is not open. I really don't even want to think about the day he decides he doesn't want to do it but it's up to him, he'll let us know what he wants to do.”

 

 

Ominously she trotted out the same analogy about Brosnan during DAD promotion so...

Never employ a falsetto in a Bond opening credit sequence.

Dan Stevens is one cold SOB in The Guest. I think he will be perfect. I also think Michael Fassbender will be a great Bond. Just extrapolate all that smarminess he displays in Prometheus as a cyborg.

I get remove the quote.  So disregarded. 

 

So I decided to see this in IMAX since I had half off a ticket.  This is one small IMAX screen.  AMC mission Valley sucks.  

[grey ghost]

I can get behind Fassbender as the next Bond.

 

Just watch his scenes in Inglorious Basterds.

So Spectre was solid.  Not another Casino Royale or Skyfall, but still good.  I know for a lot of people on the internet everything is seen as either great or terrible, but this movie isn't gonna be seen as a miss.  I hope Daniel Craig comes back for 1 more movie.

Relistening to Writings on the Wall. God this sucks

[MrPink]

Too much falsetto. It would be tolerable if it weren't half the song. 

[Blankments]

Lana's is better. Or they could've just asked Adele back for more Skyfall rehashing (although in this case, it'd be welcome)

Also the arrangement feels limp, like put some more drama into that shit, it's a Bond theme for chrissake.

This, pretty much. It has some real strong moments- though admittedly it had some moments that made me smack my forehead really hard, but eh. It's just a solid "James Bond adventure episode," that seems to be setting up for one final big one for Craig. My crowd seemed to really enjoy it, though they didn't quite seem to fall in love with it or anything. IMO, reception seems to be that it's a fun enough and kinda flawed James Bond movie. Some people online are acting like it's TF2 or something.

The song feels like it is building to a big chorus which never comes. Most of the best Bond songs have a memorable hook which this song just lacks, I forget what it sounds like just after listening to it.

[Blur]

I didn't liked the song at first, but listening in the opening made me tolerate it.

Have you all forgot of the Die Another Day song?

Yeah, i agree about that this film is certainly no TF2. TF2 was hated considerably by many who saw that film and had very little redeeming qualities, in people's opinions.
