On a lighter note, how many posts does one have to make in order to get their username in bold font?
There is membership of the 00 Group with a 00 number and the name in blue. Or a custom colour and rank (a Bond character for example). Which would you prefer?
Thank you Carl, I'll go with the Blue "00" version please.
For some reason I was under the impression it happened automatically once a certain number of posts were achieved.
I think it's something Goldeneye introduced years ago. I had forgotten about it, to tell you the truth.

Not a big deal, was just curious, now I'll feel like more of a member of the "club."

The last paragraph sounds great, except the "...referencing Bond's past that people loved, but still incorporating moments to move the films forward."
The incessant winks, nods and nudges of past Bond scenes were done to death in Danny's era and were absolute trash, I don't need to see a recreation of "Jill Masterson but with oil instead of gold," or any of the other cheap "Memberberries" we were subjected to since Die Another Day!
We Have All The Time In The World seems appropriate, though, since it's now the official EON theme song.

Please don't get me started on that bit of emotional theft! If that's truly what they have in mind going forward, by all means take "all the time in the world!"

I think if any of this is legit, it’s a sign they will go back to what they were. Over reboot to the 1950s. Maybe not. Babs hasn’t had any original ideas in awhile. Cr was her Batman begins actually just about everything she did even to choice of directors was a rip off of somebody else idea. Not saying bond hadn’t been guilt of this in the past but it used to own the genre. Now there is a lot of the bond uniqueness is elsewhere.
Honestly I’d be curious is they’d just do a movie with Dalton or Brosnan as a one off. Give them both a decent send off with decent stories. Amazon would fund it, as long as it said bond.
In regards to the MI6 forum, those people are actually insulted when Daniel Cr-egg is being demeaned. They truly feel as if they are along for the ride with him and Broccoli. In regards to ATJ and his religion, Broccoli may be determined to not offend the anti-Israeli folk, especially after the speech someone gave at the Oscars about it, so she very well might rethink her thoughts. If ATJ is not the choice now, this media hype will backfire and people will be annoyed by the constant teasing about the lead actor already.

But ATJ is British, not Israeli. Saying that being Jewish makes him responsible for the actions of the Israeli government is like saying that being Russian Orthodox makes someone responsible for the invasion of Ukraine.

Tell that to the loons out there. Broccoli might not care BUT, who knows with her. ATJ is not my cup of Bond tea when Aidan Turner is out there.
While everything is still up in the air with the new Bond franchise, many believe actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson will be the next James Bond. But who will be the first Bond girl of this new series? Everyone is guessing who it could be. There’s really nothing known about the new franchise, but UK gambling sites and tabloids are making their guesses for who the next Bond girl could be: Michelle Keegan, Jodie Comer, or Kaya Scodelario.
In an interview with GQ conducted before the Sun’s report, Taylor-Johnson appeared to rule himself out of contention, saying: “I don’t feel like I need to have a future drawn out for me. I feel like, whatever’s drawn out for me, I can f- - king do better.” He continued by saying that he “doesn’t necessarily want … doing one action movie after another” to be his “brand”.-----------is he deliberately trying to draw people off the track?
Sydney Sweeney is the leader of the pack to play the next female lead of the James Bond series. But what’s even more interesting is how the rest of the field shaking out, as the rest of the listed competition is made up of some absolutely winning prospects:
Emma Watson / Florence Pugh - 16/1 ------Sweeney would be as relevant as Denise Richards was in TWINE and be chosen just as Richards was for her nude popularity in Wild Things.
The problem with all this speculation is it's taking place current day and we all know nothing is going to happen at EON for at least another 2-3 years, we'll see who the hot commodities are then.
