Looks like Bond 24 has some competition: http://www.denofgeek.com/movies/2015-bl ... rs-of-2015

It doesn't look like EON are particularly troubled by it, though. The biggest loser seems to be original ideas not based on an existing property (another reason why I wanted Pacific Rim to succeed).

Me neither, but there's a film featuring that bouncer character played by Daniel Craig in there.

What if...?!!

A fictitious title a friend of mine helped me to come up with. This artwork is dedicated to the project that failed to launch in the 1970s after When Eight Bells Toll didn't achieve what it needed to be successful. Its main star, Anthony Hopkins was slated to reprise his role as Phillip Calvert in an original story had to be written by Alistair MacLean, the indomitable spy writer himself. The rest of the fictitious cast include James Stewart, a professional villain; Jaclyn Smith, Charlie's Angel; George Lazenby, the other fellow who played James Bond once; and Nathalie Delon reprising her role as an ally of Calvert's. Hurricane From Scapa Flow appears to be a follow up to the 1971 action movie and is the closest title to any MacLean tenure I would tell.

Missing 'Casino Royale' actor found dead
July 18, 2013, 3:41 PM EST
WENN

Missing "Casino Royale" actor Paul Bhattacharjee has been found dead in England.

The body of a man matching his description was discovered on Friday near the cliffs at Splash Point in East Sussex. Bhattacharjee has now been formally identified and his next of kin have been informed, officials at Scotland Yard have confirmed.
His death is not being treated as suspicious.

The actor, who played a secret service medic in the 2006 Bond movie, went missing July 10 after leaving rehearsals for the play "Talk Show" at London's Royal Court theatre.

Bhattacharjee, 53, did not make it to rehearsals the following day, prompting friends and family to begin a search.

British actor Stephen Fry was among those who took to Twitter.com to appeal for help finding Bhattacharjee by posting a link to his page on a missing person's website.

As well as "Casino Royale," Bhattacharjee appeared in "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel," "Dirty Pretty Things" and long-running U.K. soap opera "EastEnders."

It might have been neither, it could just be a tragic accident.

Could be. Could be not. But I suspect it would be murder because he was lost for a few days, the police would have found the body the same day the accident happened. That's how I view it. But that's just my opinion, though. What do you think?

The report said that the police were not treating the death as suspicious. And I haven't seen any mention of anyone who would have a motive to murder him in the reports I've read.

I see. Then, it has to be accident no doubt. Well, peace be with him.

Went to see the Lone Ranger today,,,, um somebody owes an apology to native Americans and/or the nation. I had hoped the background would be a little more stunning.
