Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
Would anyone like to buy a ticket to this next week in New Jersey? I cannot believe the accolades this dull bee gets from the film industry! https://montclairfilm.org/events/the-mo ... n-colbert/
Today, Montclair Film, New Jersey’s leading film non-profit, announced that The Montclair Film Festival will present its 2022 Tribute to Daniel Craig, star of the highly anticipated GLASS ONION: A KNIVES OUT MYSTERY with Stephen Colbert hosting Mr. Craig on stage at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) in downtown Newark, NJ on Friday, October 28, 2022 at 8:00 PM. The pair will sit down for an unforgettable evening of conversation celebrating Mr. Craig’s extraordinary career as one of the cinema’s "most distinguished actors".

I think we should all buy tickets and not go, thus ensuring plenty of empty seats at the venue.

Next weekend it is CHILLER time in New Jersey as well. It would be nice to see Christie Brinkley walking around at the Saturday night party in the hotel lobby. http://www.chillertheatre.com/gt/gtc4.htm

Pierce Brosnan never rewatches his James Bond films: “I don’t look. I see the movie at the premiere, and that’s it. I move on,” Brosnan shares. “I’ve never watched James Bond movies with my sons, much to their chagrin. Maybe one day I will. But I don’t particularly enjoy looking at the work. It’s done. It’s over. It’s on to the next one.”

I'm not surprised. I imagine his firing and replacement by a trained chimp must still be a painful memory for him.bjmdds wrote:Pierce Brosnan never rewatches his James Bond films: “I don’t look.

Ralph Fiennes about NTTD: "I thought it was a bold and strong decision. You know, they might reboot everything, and they might want a woman back as M. Every single film after I took over from Judi Dench, she upstaged me. They always had her voice, a recording, or a portrait. I’m like, ‘Look, can I be M, Judi?’ https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/no-t ... killed-off

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
'An unknown actor in their mid-to-late 30s is who Broccoli and Wilson should set their sights on with the sharp targeting of Bond’s gun barrel opening shot. An established star like Hardy, Cavill, or even Elba would be wrong as Bond as they are both too old and too famous for a true rebirth of the character after Cr-ggg’s climactic swansong. A real reboot should go back to basics with a fresh face and vision. The curiosity surrounding a newbie would be huge, igniting yet another resurgence in popularity in the long-running, incredibly profitable franchise.' https://movieweb.com/why-james-bond-sho ... own-actor/ -----go back to basics? That has been our mantra here for 17 years But, in this day and era, define BASICS.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
This is what I was saying after SP, when they were hemming and hawing over Craig's return, ditch the crusty old man and start fresh. Something I disagree with the author on is Cavill being too old, we all know he won't get the role despite practically being made in a laboratory for the part. Yes he is "too famous" but I think at this point considering the damage done to the series with "Captain Pretentious'' death of the character EON need to remember what Elliot Carver forgot in TND and "give the people what they want."bjmdds wrote: ↑Fri Oct 28, 2022 4:37 pm 'An unknown actor in their mid-to-late 30s is who Broccoli and Wilson should set their sights on with the sharp targeting of Bond’s gun barrel opening shot.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
Difficult choice DB...................When asked about the current Bond– the producers of which are looking for someone in their ’30s, Cavill quipped, “They’re running out of time,” noting that he’s now 39 years old. The actor also suggested it’s no longer his aspiration to play the spy. “Yeah, I’m quite busy now,” he said with a laugh. “I love those guys [the Broccolis,], they are wonderful, I have very fond memories, and it was a really fun time, and so, whether I’m considered for the role or not, I don’t know, but, it’d be fun to have the conversation, for sure. If not, I’d love to see what they do with it ’cause they’re amazing.”

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
Sounds like Cavill is over it and I can't say I blame him. Bond is going nowhere fast, not to mention it's no secret he's too famous for the role and doesn't stand a snowball's chance in hell of getting the role despite being perfect for it. I'm sure that's why he agreed to return as Superman this avenue has been closed to him.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
Nothing has been done in 2022 about the future of Bond. Broccoli is waiting for her Oscar for Till and then she will really believe she is the true English Queen!

Cavill is set to star in the upcoming Guy Ritchie movie called The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. A WWII spy action flick. Sounds promising so far.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
How long does it take to figure out where to go with the franchise? What does waiting accomplish except to extend Cr-egg's tenure with no replacement?
Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
Well, that's it, isn't it? As long as no replacement is chosen, then Lady Broccoli's Lover is still officially Bond.bjmdds wrote:How long does it take to figure out where to go with the franchise? What does waiting accomplish except to extend Cr-egg's tenure with no replacement?

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
I almost wonder if EON isn't weighing the possibility of moving forward with a 007 Nomi series?

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
Good god I hope not! Of all the rumoured spin-offs from Bond over the years this would be the worse. Lynch’s Nomi had no redeeming qualities as a character at all. She was a boring and one-not character brought in only to be an antagonist for Bond. A film built around Wai Lin especially or even Jinx would be infinitely more interesting.dirtybenny wrote: ↑Sun Oct 30, 2022 6:59 pm I almost wonder if EON isn't weighing the possibility of moving forward with a 007 Nomi series?
