Wessex Bond news of the day: http://www.getwokingham.co.uk/news/s/21 ... _film_prop

Some of the comments on that story fall into the "please let that be a joke" category

First there was Piranhaconda, now there's Crocaconda.

I'm a bit late with this news (sorry), but apparently, Feb 25th would have been Gert Frobe's 100th birthday. Belated happy birthday, Mr Goldfinger (waak-WAAH-waah).

A follow up to the "Bond crocodile" story: http://www.getwokingham.co.uk/news/s/21 ... ver_thames

[The Saint 007]

Yeah, the crocodile jump scene in Live And Let Die used real crocodiles. So their original story was off.

Diana Rigg is going to be in season 3 of game of thrones. She is lady redwyne, not sure who this is but it's a connection between one of my favorite bond movies & favorite tv series

Olenna Redwyne Tyrell (Diana Rigg) We’re not sure what excites us more: seeing the scheming, whip-smart grandmother of Margaery Tyrell brought to life or the return to the screen of the amazing Rigg.

Having read the books, Diana Rigg is perfect for the role. She's supposed to be an older woman-a very wise older woman who is

Spoiler

a ally for Sansa..in the books anyways

OMG! She looks so ancient

Deadline has the video, a familiar face can be seen near the end.

Simon West’s Pilot ‘The Saint’
http://www.deadline.com/2013/04/tv-trai ... the-saint/

Here is an exclusive first look at Adam Rayner as Simon Templar. Rayner and Eliza Dushku topline the latest take on Leslie Charteris’ 70-book The Saint franchise. The backdoor pilot was directed by Simon West from a script by Jesse Alexander. Brad Krevoy’s film and TV production company MPCA is behind the project, which will be screened at MIPTV next week, with MPCA’s Francisco Gonzalez handling international sales. There is interest in the series from U.S. networks. Co-starring in The Saint are James Remar, Enrique Murciano, Thomas Kretschmann, Greg Grunberg and the two men who played the Templar in the previous two Saint TV series, Roger Moore and Ian Ogilvy.

[kater23]

That actually looks really good-and Roger Moore is involved-very meta!

[The Saint 007]

The new Saint looks more interesting than Bond, and it's cool that Roger Moore is involved as well, but I still prefer the 60's series. Most of the time these remakes never come close to the original.

Looks more like 007 than 007

I love Daniel Craig as Bond now...........................................April Fool's

I don't think anyone would fall for that one.

Craig and Weisz are going to do a play on Broadway the time involved is October 1st to January 5th 2014, so for those keeping tack Craig is making a WWII movie then this. and Maybe Bond in 2014 or possibly another movie then Bond in 2015? Doesn't seem to be in demand for the Dragon Tattoo sequels which are supposed to be filmed back to back if they are going to be made at all..

Someone elsewhere(forget where) suggested Weisz as a Bond girl(I may have mentioned this on another thread..)Nepotism, much?

It was one of the rumours for Skyfall that turned out to be untrue. It'll probably be recycled for the next one, and the one after that.
