The plan is to depopularized James Bond that it's all about other franchises and other potential great films.The problem is now all overseas. Do you have a contingency plan to deal with these overseas minions?
I think you can write off Britain, as Bond has always been huge here (naturally, since it's his home turf, so to speak). Fortunately, while the UK and Ireland (treated as a single territory for box office purposes, just as the US and Canada are) is a major market, it's not so huge that it can single-handedly skew the international grosses the way somewhere like India or Japan can. I don't think it is, anyway.bjmdds wrote:FBF, Bond 23 will have a hard time in our country topping these top 9 films in 2012: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/yearly/cha ... 012&p=.htm The problem is now all overseas.

My guess? They really wanted Adele for the theme song, but her pregnancy has thrown a spanner in the works and now they are desperately scrambling for someone, anyone to knock out a theme tune at the last minute. But of course that's pure speculation on my part.bjmdds wrote:Bond 23 premieres in the UK in just 7 1/2 weeks. No announcement yet on most likely Adele's theme song? When will these idiots announce it? They will use her notoriety and the 50th anniversary as a selling tool for Bond 23. The film will be hyped to the ultimate. After one viewing, will the public say enough already with Cr-egg?
I think if she had done it, they would have announced it already as time is over... it's September, we're less than two months away. And it's not like they can distribute the movie the day before it premieresKristatos wrote:My guess?

Adele said nothing and she is having a baby soon. I think someone else will do it. Unless she pre-recorded it and they are so dumb as to not say anything, which seems like a stretch on their level of stupid, even for EON. We're going to transfer our collective energies anyway to the vampires and Bilbo along with the others. Who cares Bond anyway? The only way I will care about him again is if Bond 23 crashes and burn down and end up being TOTALLY forgotten.bjmdds wrote:If he is not, and they keep DC again for Bond 24, after Henry PUBLICLY let it be known he wants it, even after Superman, let's chuck the whole franchise and transfer our collective energies to The Hobbit, right FBF?

He's been cast for another film already, "The Big Wall" it's a movie set back in time about the myth of the Big Wall in China... sounds very promising, and he was great in The Tudors, so for sure it's something he can easily handle.bjmdds wrote:If he is not, and they keep DC again for Bond 24, after Henry PUBLICLY let it be known he wants it, even after Superman, let's chuck the whole franchise and transfer our collective energies to The Hobbit, right FBF? I will tell you this though. IF Eon is planning to terminate Cr-egg after this film it will be done QUICKLY, right after the release of the Man Of Steel, probably in July or August of next year. I don't see them announcing Cavill prior to The Man Of Steel and how will his schedule be crafted to accommodate BOTH Superman 2 Cavill and Bond 24 Cavill? It's a good thing he called off his wedding. This boy won't be free to date for years now IF he lands Bond and a Superman sequel. This way a certain Italian lady can pursue his affections while he films 2 major franchises.
If he's cast as Bond I will demand at least a dinner given I've been relentlessly promoting him for the role! Seriously, I don't know but I'm quite sure they will accommodate his filming needs if they cast him. I can't even believe that, if Henry was Bond, I'd finally have a Bond movie to look forward to after all these years. 
This is what EON has done to me.

No they are ripping off Sherlock! First thing to come to mind is Sherlock.

Yes, and that wasn't very good, at least not by the standards of the people involved. I reckon this one is going to be knocked out by someone you vaguely remember seeing on the cover of the NME 10 years ago, just like the last one.The Saint 007 wrote:I think the title song for Moonraker wasn't settled and recorded until a few weeks before its premiere, which could very well be the same case for Skyfall's title song.
I think the title song for Moonraker is pretty good. I like the soundtrack too, it's one of John Barry's finer works in the series, although I like all of his James Bond soundtracks.Kristatos wrote:Yes, and that wasn't very good, at least not by the standards of the people involved.
