Do you think they should be even more radical in Bond 22? Or will Craig become the Bond we "all know and love" jumping off cliffs in pink salapets and firing lasers out of his cufflinks?

Well, I think it will go towards the early Connery style (up to Thunderball). I don't think Bond should ever go back to the "jumping off cliffs in pink salapets and firing lasers out of his cufflinks" style of Bond.carl stromberg wrote:Eon have made a different type of Bond film and been sucessful.

Nahh that's not going to happen. They're done (for the time being) with the silly stuff. With a an actor like Daniel Craig in the role they can focus on more character based stories, instead of jokes and cgi.James wrote:If Craig turns up in the next one cracking double-entrendres and surfing ice-glaciers I hope The Sweeney and co are suitably outraged
True. I said on another forum they could use material from the last half of YOLT novel (Dr. Shatterhand, castle of death, Bond loses his memory, etc.) for Bond 22, and conclude with Bond 23, seeing a brainwashed Bond trying to shoot M at the beginning - using the opening from TMWTGG (in fact, most of this novel has never been used).Captain Nash wrote:Nahh that's not going to happen.

And although there aren't any complete works of Fleming left to make. There are still plenty of elements of his work that could be incorporated into the films.
I wonder how much some of the members here really enjoy Bond at times.carl stromberg wrote:Maybe in Bond 22 Bond could use that face changing machine that North Korean man used in DAD. Then he could turn into Gerard Butler.
Well I think that's what part of Craigs character arc will be.That over the course of his films he becomes Bond. So we can see how he is the way he is. It's a good idea if you give it a chance.Harvey Wallbanger wrote:Not radical at all -Bond 22 is going to follow CR closely.

To me a 3 story arc to get to being Bond will become more and more painful. Reboot the reboot and skip the character study -not really suited to Bond any-how. -give him a decent story and a chance to actually be Bond.Captain Nash wrote:Well I think that's what part of Craigs character arc will be.That over the [course of his films he becomes Bond.
