Did they blow it by not releasing '22 in 2007?

As many others have noted: I'd rather they take their time and give us another high-quality film like CR rather than rush it and potentially compromise quality just to make 2007...

Well look what happened with Live And Let Die. It was a huge hit and then they rushed The Man With The Golden Gun out and we all know what happened with that.

And to me, it was a much better Bond film than it's immediate predecessor. And dare I say it...better than it's successor too :)

well? I think a Bond film in just a year from now would be just as big as it would in '08. Craig is a hit and CR's ending leaves unfinished business for 007... Are they(Eon) kicking themselves now for not getting it off the ground for the special(marketing dream) 2-007 release date? :)

thoughts?

I think this is only a big deal to fans. Besides, CR is opening in 2007 in some countries so they can still play up the 2-007 angle there...and they can do it with the DVD release if they like. But it really isn't that clever a thing to reschedule a film, rush another, or kick yourself for having missed.

Ok we didn't get a bad bond film per say,but it did suffer at the box office.

It's just a shame, a dog-gone shame to have missed the 2-007 film. Sure, logistically, it's not gonna happen. But what a shame. The synchronicity was a shoe-in. Shucks, I could have even waited a couple of more monthe for CR to have been released in Feb/Mar of 2007.

Yes EON/MGM/Sony definitely did blow a great opportunity by not releasing a Bond film in the year 2007. I have a feeling though when New Year's Eve comes along, the newspaper and TV ads will same someting along the lines of "Bring in 2007 with 007!" or something similar.

By all means I want a good... no... amazing quality film after Casino Royale since that will be a hard act to follow. But no 007 movie in 2007? In the one year until after 1000 more (meaning 3007) where we'll actually have 007 in the year? Kinda disturbing... very disappointing... I guess it's just fandom that makes me want it...
