So we can add Craig and mendes profit sharing into the cost of sp? Mi5 was a much better movie done in a budget bond hasn't visited in over a decade. Maybe since cubby was alive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I wasn't aware that Craig or Mendes had profit sharing participation in Spectre. Perh...

Yay, it overtook a movie that cost half as much to make, and there are still all those $$$ from Japan and South Africa to come. MI5 only appeared to cost "less" than Spectre because the main cost of the film--Tom Cruise--is paid out of the gross rather than as a top line cost (as, for example, Crai...

And Spectre passes MI5 in world-wide box office with still a long way to go.

Ooops, not the right website for that?

You mean Sean Connery, the guy who said: Let me straighten you out on this. The problem in interviews of this sort is to get across the fact, without breaking your arse, that one is not Bond, that one was functioning reasonably well before Bond, and that one is going to function reasonably well aft...

People have survived falls from much greater heights than 322 feet. http://www.cracked.com/article_19996_5-insane-falls-you-wont-believe-people-survived.html OTOH, the PTS for Goldeneye is simply impossible. I watched with my father (a former aeronautical engineer) and he was so upset he walked out ...

Does anybody know what happened to "A Long Way Down" in which Brosnan played a suicidal TV celebrity? Production was finished about a year ago. Seems like it should've been released by now. Certainly sounds like the kind of role Brosnan would excel in.

Can't wait for "The Secret Service." Vaughn is looking to cast Adele as the bad guy (really!). The movie may also have David Beckham and Elton John in it. Something for everyone! http://www.inquisitr.com/899006/adele-joins-the-secret-service-singer-to-make-film-debut-in-samuel-l-jackson-movie-rumor/

Last I checked, Skyfall was currently running sixth in DVD sales, ahead of Les Mis, Argo, Django, and Lincoln, among others.

It's possible. Especially with a big name like Nolan who said he want to do his own bond / new actor and crew but he id probably in love with Craig :roll: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 I don't think so. He can't come right out and say it, of course, but I get the distinct impression from com...

of course, there was a prop for the film that openly statges that cr-egg was "mentally unfit for duty at mi6" and should be "removed from duty pending extermination for treason". as mi6 medical stated "a sufferer of manic depression and post truamatic stress disorder, highly mentally unstable, most...

How did Daniel Craig's Bond "betray his country"? Perhaps it all the going rogue on his own mission stuff. Going AWOL and faking his own death for personal reasons might qualify as well. Bond of Ian's Books did try to kill "M" after being brainwashed by the reds, I suppose that is treasonous. :| On...

How does one tell the good guys from the bad guys in Mr. Miller's world?

"Look, heroes are not meant to be emotional." Too bad nobody told old Bill Shakespeare that. His characters emote all over the place. There is a 3,000-year tradition in Western Literature as to what it means to be a hero. It dates back to at least the Iliad (that preceded even Batman). Come to think...

OHMSS is on the Reelz channel now. Why does it take half the movie before Bond and Blowfeld recognize each other after having already hated each other in YOLT? Like Stocks said, it was a result of the books being filmed out of order, but it can be expained away in-movie. When Blofeld crushes Bond's...

I don't think they would cast a black actor (whatever Barbara Broccoli pretends in interviews) but it would be hilarious to see any rumpus it caused on the other forums. They'd get a taste of how I've felt for the last several years. A black Bond would be interesting. Fleming wrote the Bond novels ...

Of the 7 outside of Bond 3 were pretty big attempts to launch trilogies. Dream House wasn't cheap either. I will not say they sucked because Craig was in them but,,,,, his managers should be fired. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Craig's a very good actor within a very limited range. Unfortuna...

I think he has only made 7 movies since CR not counting Bond, shorts/PSAs, or video games. According to Wikipedia, Craig has made the following: 2006 Casino Royale 2006 Infamous 2006 Renaissance 2007 The Invasion 2007 The Golden Compass 2008 Flashbacks of a Fool 2008 Quantum of Solace 2008 Defiance...
