gkgyver 1,645 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 That's one of the worst teaser posters I have ever seen.

Edmilson 7,436 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 NO TIME TO DIE: New Details And Name Revealed For Rami Malek's Villain In JAMES BOND 25 We've seen Daniel Craig's 007 battle a number of nasty villains over the years, but what will make Rami Malek's character different to the baddies played by the likes of Mads Mikkelson and Christoph Waltz? Well, more details about the Mr. Robot star's character in No Time to Die have now been revealed, including the fact that he's called Safin. According to producer Barbara Broccoli, "We’ve thrown the book at [Bond] on this one. He is really the supervillain. He’s the one that really gets under Bond’s skin." Considering how personal things have become in the past, that's obviously a bold claim. The longtime James Bond producer adds that Safin is "a nasty piece of work." There have been a lot of troubling reports about James Bond 25 and it's widely rumoured that it's been plagued by issues which could result in it being a total mess. Throw in on-set injuries, controversy among fans about the "new" 007, and claims that director Cary Fukunaga fell out with the crew because he was busy playing Red Dead Redemption II on his PlayStation 4. https://www.comicbookmovie.com/action/james_bond/no-time-to-die-new-details-and-name-revealed-for-rami-maleks-villain-in-james-bond-25-a171357 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweeping Strings 2,357 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 In fairness to the Craig movies, the 'personal to Bond' thing has pretty much been an regular element since the second Dalton flick. Licence To Kill - he heads off to avenge the murder/attempted murder of Felix Leiter's new bride and Leiter himself. Goldeneye - the villain turns out to be an ex-fellow agent and friend. Tomorrow Never Dies - the villain's wife is an ex-lover of Bond's. The World Is Not Enough - when the woman who Bond is protecting (and sleeping with) turns out to be the villain of the piece, he kills her. But it's clear that doing so affects him. Die Another Day - after being held by the Koreans for over a year, M suspends Bond's '00 agent' status under suspicion that he leaked information whilst being tortured (although naturally he regains M's trust and his status).

This is the last Bond film to be closest to the classic 70s/80s style story, which is probably why it's also my most recent highest-ranking one.

Edmilson 7,436 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 The year is 2030. 62 year old Daniel Craig is giving interviews about his role on the upcoming blockbuster movie "Goldfinger's Revenge", aka Bond 28. Craig says that, this time, it'll be his very last time as Bond. "I know I've been saying this for the last 18 years, but this time I'm being super serious, it'll be the end of the line for me as James Bond". Hollywood sources, however, says that the actor has been in talks with his Casino Royale director Martin Campbell regarding another possible Bond movie.
