A couple of rumors about the next BOND film!!!
Well gosh, it seems the rumour mill is going to be kicking into full steam now that movement is being tracked on the next BOND film. This first one comes from... ahhh heck he tells ya that. Read on...
A couple of gems for you from the pages of the U.K's most disliked but
accurate tabloid - The Daily Mail...
First off, that notorious nose-biting, Wimbledon Capping, Welsh hardman
Vinnie Jones - Star of Lock, Stock and two smoking barrels - has been
approached by Bondie bigwig Michael Wilson to play a henchman in Bond 19.
This has sent a spontanious cheer reverberating around the U.K. as we think
its high time we had a brit henchman.
Secondly, that old potential bond stalewart Natasha Henstridge has reared
her head again it an article in today's (Oct 16) Mail.
Baz Bamigboye claims she is for the role of Holly Christmas, a bomb
disposal expect who defuses a bomb destined for M (Judi Dench). The real
chruncher however is the development that BOND is accused of planting the
bomb, and has to go into hiding.
We wait with baited breath...
+++ Puss fella +++
Then I got this report about BOND 19 that claims to come from the same article that the gent above is referencing. Never swear by a Bond rumor though. They change awfully quickly.
The article also stated that Robbie Coltrane HAS signed to reprise
his
character from 'GoldenEye'.
And that's that for now...

To bad Teri Hatcher can't be in the next flim..... Boohoo

One of the features in the tabloid TV news over the past week (in the UK)said that very popular singer Robbie Williams (ex Take That star) has been approached to sing the next theme song. I don't know if they were inspired by his latest music video which has a Bond theme...(apparently this fella will also have a song on the A Bug's Life soundtrack).

Here's the script for Bond 19, I know a guy who knows a guy, no names, he got me this script.
James wakes from a drunken slumber with three women in his bed. He shakes the Bakarat dice off his chest and sits up. 'what have I been doing with my life?' he thinks, "I've been around more than 30 years and I still look mid 30 ish!" he walks over to his closet. to his dismay he opens it to reveal that there are 44 perfectly lined tuxedos. "I need a change' he thinks 'I want-I want to dance!!'
The next scene we see james in the-shall we say 'fashionable'? part of london. he's wearing tight leather pants with a matching shirt. He is holding hands with a 'Friend' and heading to the dance studio, hoping to be picked for a starring role in 'Cats'. THE END
JAMES BOND WILL NEVER RETURN AS WE KNOW HIM.

Is It Me Or Is BoNd JuSt NoT aS GoOd As He ShOuLd bE. I mean the last 2 have made boohkoohsof moola but they weren't realy that good. Goldeneye was just not "All That" and Tommorow Never Dies was just too corny with that villian and his "STEALTH" boat, but it made more money than Goldeneye. I think Bond 19 will be a hit, but it won't make as much as TND ,more like Goldeneye. I think,from what I here, Bond 19 will be better than the last 3 installments. Another thing is I think the studios could make one like the first and best 3,Dr.No,From Russia With Love, and Goldfinger, but I don't think they would, because the old ones didn't have alot of explosions and violence mostly it just had a good plot and Bond relying on his wits not his gadgets, plus it was before they had all this Politicaly Correct crap.

You know, I'm getting tired of Bond themes being done by crappy artists. In recent years we've had Gladys Knight (Liscense to Kill), a-ha (Living Daylights) and Sheryl Crow (Tomorrow Never Dies - and she's not so bad but she wouldn't exactly be my first choice to sing a Bond song). Why don't they get an important artist or one that will at least do something interesting? Personally, I'd be interested to see what someone like Beck would do with it.
-
Kyle, have you seen Goldeneye? Or do you just not know who Robbie Coltrane is? He the fat guy Bond met in the bar that had Minnie Driver as a girlfriend who did some mighty bad singing. You might be thinking of Sean Bean, who played 006, and was also played Sean Miller in Patriot Games. He tried to kill Harrison Ford's wife and daughter in that movie. Robbie Coltrane is a rather large English man who played Fitz in the British version of Cracker, which was quite a good show, unlike the American rip off with Robert Pastorelli. Overall, Bond 19 will end up being mighty entertaining, but Natasha Henstridge is your protypical dumb blonde. She can't act worht a damn and the only thing she can do well is take off her clothing, and that is something she does mighty well.

Ah-ha's "Living Daylights" song kicked was really good!
-
well...sheryl crow's song sucked (imho), so did tina turner...but moby re-version of the classic bond-theme (for tomorrow never dies) was kinda cool. it's really a shame, cos u2 wrote the original song for goldeneye, which tina turner later performed...i'd like to see a real huuuge rock band do the song for bond19, like u2, depeche mode (metallica...naaah) or rem.
well...anyway...i still think pirce just isn't cut for playing bond. my suggestion: mel gibson.
he's slick, he's mean and he's funny. sort of like a roger moore-type. and it would give old mel something better to do after shit like lethal"we're to old for this shit"weapon 4.
-
How about having Michelle Yeoh reprise her character from Tomorrow Never Dies, in her own franchise? If a Bond film must be made and needs a featured song . . . I don't like Trent Reznor, but I like that remix he did of David Bowie. Maybe those two might be able to do another good song.
-
Well, I don't know how you spell his name but I'm talking about the villain in Lethal Weapon 4. I think he would make a great villain for a Bond movie (not necessarily 19) just because I think it would be cool to actually see Bond (James Bond) get the living shit kicked out of him, and in my opinion Jet Li is so much cooler than Jackie Chan, so I think he'd be a good choice.

I think we're too easy to please with these new Bond films. Brosnan is good. He just needs a real script with balls. I don't see these films breaking any rules, pushing who Bond could be, or shocking everyone who thinks Bond now must be PC. I started watching TND but I shut it off after 20 minutes. Maybe John Woo should direct the next one cus they seem to be going in that direction. Just another action hero, and action heroes these days are pretty much a dime a dozen. I want to love the new Bond film, but unless they take some new chances. I'll stay home and watch Dr. No. MMmmm. Remember those days? When Bond used to gamble, ski, scuba dive, use cool weapons, and sleep with loads of women? And he was so cool and smooth that we didn't mind. Oh well.
-
Radiohead should do the theme. Or David Bowie. Speaking of Bowie. He should play a cool informant to Bond in the new film who pops up now and then.

Forget Bond The real Franchise is Friday the 13th!!!!!!

Greg, what do you mean they should hire Woo cause the franchise is heading in that direction? That would kick so much ass if they were heading in a direction for Woo to take over. The thing with Woo is that you must forget all about Hard Target and Broken Arrow. Those were movies in which the studio was monitoring everything he did, and he was unable to do what he has become famous for in Hong Kong. Face/Off was a huge step in the right direction for him, cause the studio let him off his leash and do what he does best. The only problem with Face/Off was how unbelievable it's script was. You have to see his Chinese films, mainly A Better Tomorrow, The Killer, Hard-Boiled, and Once A Thief(the Chinese one). Hard-Boiled's purpose was for Woo to show how masterful he is when it comes to directing action scenes. A Better Tomorrow and The Killer show how well he is able to combine the poetic violence with drama. Once A Thief shows how well he can do comedy. If Bond were at a point where John Woo could use all of his skill developed in Hong Kong, I would take that as a sign that there is a god. Mission Impossible 2 will definitely be a good time, but it won't be classic Woo. The movie that looks most promising for Woo is King's Ransom, which Chow Yun-Fat is supposed to star in. This is supposed to be a caper-comedy. I hope it is similar to Once A Thief, and I expect it to be his best American movie. But if you think that Woo taking over Bond is a bad thing you got another thing coming man. If Woo were to get real control of a Bond film, he could add good comedy(Once A Thief), pure action(Hard-Boiled), and heartfelt drama(A Better Tomorrow, The Killer). I can't wait until the day that Bond is ready for Woo.

James Bond would definitely be headed in the right direction if they got John Woo to direct. A whole lot better than getting those English farts they got for TND and this new one. Roger Spottiswoode? Isn't Michael Apted the one who made those age documentaries following this group of losers thru their whole lives? Is that or is it not the perfect prerequisite on making a James Bond film? Jesus.

After reading the forum I have a few things to say. First of all I think Timothy Dalton should be brought back as Bond. Pierce Brosnan is quite good actually but Timothy Dalton is better. Just watch TLD and you'll see it was one of the best Bond films (Thank Satan Pierce had to do Remington Steele). Next I think Metallica should definitely do Bond 19's theme song. It would definitely kick some ass. Also I think A-ha's song for TLD was one of the best Bond theme songs along with Duran-Duran's one and OHMSS. I also think the new M should die in that alleged explosion. I really hate feminist bitches. I also think TND sucked big time. Why don't those assholes write original scripts. TND borrowed heavily from 2 other Bond flicks. (Think back!) I also think David Arnold is Satan's archangel, or whatever you call them. Satan, of course, is John Barry. (That's of course a good thing, for those of you who don't know that)

I think this story idea for 19 will be great, but what I would like to see is a melding of the past and present with Bond. I have played with this idea for a couple years since the day I saw GoldenEye. The producers are going in the right direction with Bond, but what about in a future film having the return of Bond's greatest nemesis.....That's right - SPECTRE!!!!!!!! Just think of the possibilities. Not only does it work in a world where the Russians are not considered "The" enemy anymore, but it can be relevant in our modern world with the fear of terrorism. Isn't this something SPECTRE was known for? We could go through the mystery of who the new leader is. This kind of framestory could continue through more than one Bond film.
-
Forget Dalton as Bond he is one reason that the franchise almost died.Brosnan is perfect as Bond,its the role he was born to play;what he needs is a script.Goldeneye was ok TND was a bit ridiculous.Hopefully Bond will be given some lines in the next installment,unlike those grunts and one word lines he had in TND;all told he probably had a page of dialogue in TND.I hope you guys out there are listening, and by the way bring back the director of Goldeneye for this one.
-
Everything is gonna be okay. I've seen virtually all of Woo's films and I think he is amazing. The older films are my favorites. I was just suggesting that Woo's style has been inspiring many recent action films and that they are all beginning to look alike. I just think there's more to the Bond I remember (Connery) than just action. Maybe you're right that Woo would be right for the job if he were given free reign. But at this point in the franchise, I'm very bored. Cheers.

As a previous post said....bring back SPECTRE.
How about this...SPECTRE wants the baddest, most dangerous guy they can think of to head their organization.....and they choose.....JAMES BOND!!!
He should accept....so their evil will be contained to merely criminal activity.
-
A previous poster called for Hugh Grant as the next Bond, then, turning his attention to the Bond girls, said " we need actresses, not quasi-porn film stars!"
Ummmm... Duh? does the name Divine Brown mean anything to you?
Not that Hugh's a Bad choice... either he, or the guy who played the ay guy in My Best Friend's Wedding could be great Bonds, I think. -
Bringing back Spectre would be one of the best bets for the series. First off it makes sense in this post "evil empire" world in which terrorism is the new enemy. Spectre was terrorism before terrorism became popular.
I think toning down some of the camp is needed too. The worst part of the last film was that chopter trying to slice bond with it's blades. One can be self-paroding and humorous without being stupid. How about a fact-checker reading through the script?
