Don't know if this has already been posted or if this is even the correct thread for it, but according to our own Zencat, Craig is indeed out but not for the reasons we think or have been told...

In short, Zencat's sources tell him Barbara Broccoli and Craig have fallen out.
It has been hinted at by some people and it is what we've been hearing from Zencat himself. We didn't 'report' it simply because it's one of those things you will likely not ever get a straight confirmation for by a reliable source; other than "off the record." And you know how it is with rumours on the Internet, one not spread is one killed in its tracks.
BUT - I have not doubt whatsoever that John is absolutely convinced of the substance of this. He would never write it if he wasn't 100 per cent positive this was the state of affairs on the matter. And, sad as it is, it would seem to tally with the general vibe behind the scenes - what little we get to pick up of it. It's one of the reasons why I too am highly sceptical about a return of Craig.
And yet, we all know how things in the business have a strange way of aligning themselves in unforeseen directions and we also have witnessed the odd unexpected comeback as John rightfully adds. From the comments on this post you can already gather all kinds of high spirits and righteous rage, much like a small scale model of Brosnan's farewell. The further that kind of thing is in the future the higher the chances it will not be as bad as last time...
