What mr physically ill thinking about it and it takes 18 months of preparation ?? !!!

What does seem to be certain is bond 24 is being pushed further down the road. 2016 maybe later

Loved the comment on what's there hurry ? Craig doesn't seem to age. !??

I saw that earlier and was

I'm not hopeful for Bond 24.

If Nolan's not on board, we're good. We wouldn't want him to be our enemy, do we? Anyone who associates DC Bonds is our enemy.

Yes, but it's Mendes again..same ol' sh!t, different movie. On the other hand, anyone who has any respect for their career will stay the hell away from the Bond franchise, so Nolan not directing a Bond film(hopefully *ever*) is a good thing.

SOS from a guy who couldn't say enough about how bad the experience was and how much he didn't like the fans

Nolan can direct a Bond movie as long as he wants but as long as it's not a DC Bond movie. Otherwise, we will consider him our enemy. Isn't that right, BJ?

I hope it's Mendes in 2017 then it's less Craig films for us to endure.

I guess it's too much to hope for that Craig quits the Bond franchise, ala Pope Benedict?

Why do Craig and Mendes say they are above Bond and always reluctantly make one and always say they "nearly did sign up for a Bond". Feel free to take your "talents" elsewhere.

After he went on and on about how he *didn't* want to do another Bond film,Mendes directing Bond 24 is definitely a surprise.

According to this article, Sam Mendes will be directing Bond 24 and may likely return to direct Bond 25 as well.

Waiting on my phone to load the story but it wouldn't surprise me, because MGM want the next two ASAP so IMO they'd be willing to hire a director for the next two. EON would be willing because Medes is a FOC (friend of Craig) and they probable think the half witted sky fall is the way to go for the foreseeable future.

But it still leaves the question if they are talking 2015 or 16, 2014 is almost certainly off the table

Read it the new thing is supposedly it will make him very rich so it has to be a percentage deal. Robert downy jr is going to get like $150 million from his percentage deal for avengers and im3 .

If menses does come back for two it might mean they are shooting them back to back and maybe one story like Logan said.

Mendes's beard is on a percentage too.

Penelope Cruz is in the next Mendes/Mungo/Babs concoction apparently.

Babs must have some damaging dossiers on on them.
