The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

Eh..I’m not a prude but I’m kinda with BJ on this one’s..girlfriend needs to be a litt-no a LOT-more covered up.

I'm not defending her dress, I'm just saying that it's not something the people choosing the singer for the next Bond theme are likely to care about.

Oh,I agree.Sticking with my “needs nore clothes” but have to disagree with BJ-they don’t care how people dress-or much of anything else for that matter.

Just look at the last few Bond themes. Maybe now Babzy doesn’t have a stranglehold on the franchise there will (maybe?) be a effort to think outside of the box.

Chappell is outside of her mind wearing a dress like that. I never said they would not use her and the way things are going even with Amazon this franchise could be cooked. No film since 2021, which was supposed to be released in 2018 or so but was delayed, meaning no produced film for 10 years, with 2028 being the forecast release year? Pretty soon it will be Bond, James who???????

Honestly,I would hate for No Time To Die to be the swansong for the franchise.But it’s not looking hopeful.The problem is, it needs to be so much better than No Time To Die.

They've hired a director and the first draft of the script has been delivered. I think once Dune 3 is in cinemas, things will start moving a lot more quickly. Though I had hoped we'd get the announcement of the new Bond before then, but it's starting to look unlikely.

But be honest:after the fail that was No Time To Die, is is going to be any good?

What is going to make it is:

The cast(Bond, to be more specific)

A good director

A good story(still waiting to hear some specifics on that.)

I din’t think that having a writer means much.I’m sure they’re trying to do something that hasn’t been done before,Bond-wise and will still keep the franchise interesting and relevant.

That’s why I love varying actor’s interpretations of the same role-take Hannibal Lecter-from Loga..I mean Brian Cox’s, to Anthony Hopkins’ to Mads Mikkelsen’s.

To each her/his own..and elsewhere people have their favorite(and not so favorite) Bond films and actors.

[Kristatos]

Don't know. I have my reservations, particularly about the potential mismatch of writer and director, but I can't form an opinion until I've seen the film.

You’re a better man than me..I’d wait until it was on HBO for free to pass judgement.
