Seems to be a common theme that these Bond movies are a mess to film

Issues with production, script, directors changing, Daniel Craig miserable, etc.
 
Doing a Craig Bond rewatch... Quantum was not as bad as I remember. I don't care as much about the villain, it did feel a bit too gritty and violent, but it was fine.. just a drop off after Casino and Skyfall was so good afterwards. I really really love Skyfall. I know many have Casino above it and it's close to me and Royale does have Vesper which might put it over the top. But Silva as the villain, the set pieces, bringing in Q and Moneypenny, it just hit all the marks. I know there's some debate over the Home Alone-esque final act, but I dig it.

I am actually looking forward to rewatching Spectre even though I know I didn't like it when I first saw it and the reviews were poor... but I am still hopeful it wasn't as bad as I remember :lol:
 
Quantum of Solace wasn’t that great.. it wasn’t spectre bad, but was no where near as good as casino royale or skyfall
 
The only turd in the Craig movies is Spectre. You have Waltz as the villain and he's in the movie for 5 minutes?


Hated how Blofeld was like " all the bad stuff that hapoened to u was ME!"

But he never explained or showed how if i recall correctly but the Bond intro was Fire


Next Bond should be Idris then Cavil.
 
Adele also did a great job for Skyfall. I watch CinemaSins and whenever someone falls into water I always go "This is the end..."

I have Casino slightly above Skyfall just for the chase scene in Africa then Quantum and Spectre at the bottom. Gotta rewatch both and decide which is less worse.
 
No to Hemsworth too... he’s not suave enough.

Idris would have been great in the past but he’s getting up there in age. And with the way Hollywood is now a days with big name franchises, they’ll want someone young enough to do a multi picture commitment.

I can’t think of anyone who fits all those requirements + the British accent right now. Maybe Loki but idk.

My avi would do great but for selfish reasons, I wouldn’t want him locked down like that. Need him in more versatile roles. He’s too good to be stuck like that.
 
This dude Robert Pattinson looks like a Harry Potter villain. No way should he play Bond. Ain’t no **** knocking on that heron weirdo looking dudes hotel doors. You gotta have swag and suave to pull off bond. Keep Daniel Craig or just Idris. Hemsworth is too cheesy.
 
No to Hemsworth. Not only is he not from the UK but he’s too pretty and his personality relies to much on his looks. Dude doesn’t have the Bond factor. Henry Cavil is who id like but sometimes I think he’s too much of a prototypical manly man to get it. Tom Hiddleston maybe?
 
Benedict Cumberpatch could pull it off
Hiddleston maybe too

Elba would've killed it and honestly I still think he could if they would do an aged and grizzled Bond.
 
Cumbergod’s stuck with MCU as far as franchises go for a while . Doubt he’d sign onto another multi-picture commitment like that. He would have been good acting wise, though. Looks, not so much.
 
It's not like Craig is suave. Dude is rough around the edges and always getting compared to Mr Suave Pierce Brosnan.

QOS and Casio Royale should be considered two acts of the same film, almost zero interruption between the two and the same overarching story.
