LegoMan1031 Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Ah right, i get you now. From what i understood from Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, they were grasping a back-story to Bond, before he got is 00 status (or soon after). Kind of a re-imagining, but allowing us to see Bond develop into the 00 he is known for. Yeah and Also another thing to point out it is more than just a prequel is the fact Felix is Black in these films...
Retro_Link Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Apparently Moneypenny is back in the next film, so hopefully there's a chance of Q making an appearance.

Jimbob Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Moneypenny. Sweet, just need "Q" and we are sorted.
Dog-amoto Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Rumoured to be called "Skyfall" but will be unveiled later today http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-15558355

Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Actually, two Danes were in talks to be the new Bond babe (one of them the popstar Medina), but they lost the role to someone else. A shame, it'd be cool to have another major Danish Bond star.

Retro_Link Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Finally a logo that doesn't incorporate 00!
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 They could have placed the 00 in the curves of the S.
Wesley Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 I've never these films but it does sound interesting. Excited that the guy from No Country for Old Men is in it. Will watch because of that.
Retro_Link Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 New Bond Girl (left) played by French Actress Berenice Marlohe And British Actress Naomie Harris (right) is someone MI6... either maybe the new Moneypenny, or a Field Agent like Gemma Arterton.
The Peeps Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Getting excited for this but it's probably not out for ages.
darksnowman Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Skyrim, Skyward Sword, Skyfall - did I miss a memo or something? You missed the Spyro is back memo. :wink:
EEVILMURRAY Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Also attached is the "Spyro must look fucking ugly in his new game" memo.
Wesley Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 You're saying you found the old Spyro more attractive? You make sick, you dragon-fucking psycho.
Coolness Bears Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 lets hope it's better than quantum of solace.
Retro_Link Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 Q is indeed back in Skyfall... http://uk.movies.ign.com/articles/121/1213361p1.html Ben Whishaw will be Bond's gadget man. British actor Ben Whishaw has been cast as Q in Bond 23 marking a return for the character after a 10 year absence. Whishaw, most recently seen in critically acclaimed BBC drama The Hour, will be the youngest Q in the Bond franchise yet (12 years younger than Daniel Craig's Bond), taking on the role previously inhabited by Desmond Llewelyn and John Cleese. Not utterly convinced as yet, but I'll wait to see a character photo/trailer of him in the film.
EEVILMURRAY Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 You're saying you found the old Spyro more attractive? You make sick, you dragon-fucking psycho. When comparing the two, yes.
ReZourceman Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 Not utterly convinced as yet, but I'll wait to see a character photo/trailer of him in the film. Ever seen this guy act? He is incredible. I have only seen him in a couple of things, but he is absolutely incredible. Like....best British actor evveeeerrrr
Hamishmash Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 This is really funny. I live next to Ben Whishaw. Like really. We went to his Christmas party last year and he makes a mean paella. Sure he's a good actor... but... his paella man. Out of this world. I also think it's a great move and really realistic one. People involved with gadgets and technology I doubt will be old men like the first two Qs. They'll be uni graduates, people younger than Bond, people who'll make him feel old. I think it's a really smart choice.
david.dakota Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 Some pretty huge shoes to step into: moreso than taking on Bond, perhaps! The few minutes Desmond Llewelyn had on screen in any Bond film was an absolute delight - our Q's final words (despite the film actually being pretty poor) were perfect. Hopefully, Whishaw can capture that same magic Llewelyn put on screen. I'm so pleased they've got the character back, but I met the news with some trepidation: the Bond team made a cataclysmic error in recruiting one-trick-pony-baffoon-for-hire Cleese as a replacement. I expect few gadgets in the film and those that are in there will be grounded in reality. Actually, having pondered the issue I wonder whether Q Branch will have more to do with cracking cyber terrorism - a roll than causes some friction between Bond's thuggish methods. That seems to suit both Mendes' character style and the Bond teams occasional nod to topical issues.
LegoMan1031 Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 Well I don't think I have seen him in anything (I will probably be proven wrong) but I like the look off him straight away, like that bit geeky look. Which I think fits in well considering it's gadgets and he is obviously going to be passionate about his stuff... especially since Bond likes to destroy stuff!
Wesley Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 Ever seen this guy act? He is incredible. I have only seen him in a couple of things, but he is absolutely incredible. Like....best British actor evveeeerrrr Watcha you say muthafucka? (Also Idris Elba will be the first black Bond.) I'm calling it. HERE AND NOW.
