Will the Aston Martin DBS return with gadgets

I think the DBS will be back with gadgets...

 

 

For Bond 24, will 007 have another PPK with a palm-print encoded grip OR will it just be a plain old PPK but Bond has other toys from Q ?

I think it will be door number 2, a plain PPK but he'll have new toys. Now that I think about it, the signature PPK might have just been a throwback to TLD

 

 

Will M,Bill Tanner, Q and Moneypenny all have reduced roles 

 

OR 

 

do you think we'll see them as much as we did in SF

 

00?

Daniel Craig...now that his highly successful play on Broadway, "Betrayal", has wrapped up, do you think he'll be filming another movie first or go straight into preparing for Bond 24 (after a short break no doubt)?

I think and hope we'll see him on the big screen before 2015. 

 

 

Bond's new car; 

 

LOTUS 

 

or 

 

BMW

It'd be nice to see a return of the Lotus with a brand new model..

 

The pre-titles for Bond 24...should it be Bond on some random mission that has nothing to do with the main plot of the film OR should it tie into the plot??

Tie into the plot unless they want to close the Quantum story line with one by all means. 

 

Would you rather Bond 24 be about 2 hours long/so about average I would guess

 

OR 

 

go big or go home with a 3 hour tour/becoming the longest Bond film

 

00?

2 hours, an average, for me. Less risk of it feeling 20 minutes longer than it should.

 

 

Best modern-day James Bond spoof/homage:

 

The Austin Powers trilogy

 

OR

 

Archer

 

??

I love Austin Powers, never really got into Archer. 

 

 

John Travolta in Bond 24 as a cameo and then as the villain in Bond 25

 

OR 

 

perhaps go in another direction

 

00?

Very happy to see John Travolta in Bond 24 as a cameo and then as the villain in Bond 25.

 

Will 'Bond 24', on speculation of course, be an award favourite as 'Skyfall' was?

 

 

YES - The right production team and style of film could easily match 'Skyfall' for award recognition

 

OR

 

NO - 'Skyfall' was carried along with 2012's Bond fever thanks to the 50th anniversary, and so award recognition will die down

Adele back for the title track on Bond 24

OR

Newcomer Lorde for the title track with Adele returning a few films down the road

Adele back for the title track on 'Bond 24'.

 

 

The villain in 'Bond 24' -

 

Diabolical mad man with an intent to destroy millions and cause a devastation, like Emilio Largo, Karl Stromberg or Alec Trevelyan

 

OR

 

An everyday genius who wants to manipulate others for his own personal gain like Auric Goldfinger, Max Zorin or Raoul Silva

Famous landmarks you'd like to see appear in Bond 24..The Great Wall of China, the Space Needle in Seattle, the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, OR the Sydney Harbour Bridge?

The Sydney Harbour Bridge for no other reason than it gets Bond to Australia.

 

 

Over the Bond 24 credits:

The Bond theme

OR

Ending credits theme a la Surrender and If You Asked Me Too

?

Ending credits theme please. I'm not impressed with how EON has ended the last 4 films on the Bond theme. 

 

Do you think J J Abrams could one day direct a Bond flim

 

OR

 

No, Mission Impossible, Star Trek and Star Wars rules him out

I'll say no on the basis of his numerous franchises and style of directing, and the fact I think his genre is a little different to that of 007.

 

If you could be James Bond, just for a day, what you rather do more...

 

Embody Sean Connery and go scuba diving with a beautiful girl and then attend a carnival, with a romantic dinner afterwards looking out to the sea

 

OR

 

Embody Timothy Dalton and go sightseeing around a historic town with a beautiful girl and then attend a funfair, with a romantic dinner afterwards in a posh restaurant

The first one, not even close.

 

 

Another Bond for a day scenario:

Race through Monaco both with and against a beautiful girl

OR

Go to Oxford and "brush up on a little Danish" with a beautiful professor *wink wink*

?

Roger Moore

 

OR

 

Daniel Craig

Daniel Craig. Might be able to meet Eva Green....

 

 

 

Would Daniel Craig's Bond be more likely to watch:

The Six Nations

OR

Champion's League

?

I reckon....The Six Nations. A more physical and "real" sport.

 

 

Which cameo from the Bond team was the most fitting, and pleasing to see:

 

Bob Simmons as Colonel Jacques Bouar in 'Thunderball'

 

OR

 

John Barry as the Orchestra Composer in 'The Living Daylights'

 

??

John Barry as the Orchestra Conductor in The Living Daylights..

 

 Which Winter Olympic event would make a good action sequence for Daniel Craig's 007... Snowboard / ski moguls, snowboard / ski cross,  speedskating, ski jumping (as a sort of tribute to the action in For Your Eyes Only) OR downhill slalom ??

Speedskating. Craig could pull it off.

Better Bond director: Martin Campbell or Sam Mendes?

Tough One, but I'll go with Campbell as he's done 2 great ones, whereas Mendes currently only has one.

 

 

Would you like to see a Moonraker (novel) scenario where Bond doesn't get the girl:

Yes, it's more realistic as sometimes it just doesn't work out

OR

No, this is Bond he always gets the girl

I was thinking Bond shouldn't get the girl in Bond 24 however end with a girl in Bond 25 as sorta of a happy ending to his series. 

 

Bond 24 villain;

 

John Travolta

 

OR

 

Kevin Spacey

 

00?

I love them both, but think for nostalgia's sake I'd like to see where they take Auric Goldfinger.

 

Who is the most under-rated Bond villain in general:

 

Hugo Drax in 'Moonraker'

 

OR

 

Franz Sanchez in 'Licence To Kill'

 

??

Definitely Sanchez. The Drax of the novel was excellent, but the film Drax just....wasn't.

 

 

 

Bond 24's gunbarrel:

More like Brosnan's

OR

More like Craig's

?

More like Craig's...I actually really, really like the style of the Skyfall gunbarrel (didn't really care for the Casino Royale one though) and an updated look is the way to go..Not that I'm hating on the traditional gunbarrel, but you know after 50 years, an update is a welcome breath of fresh air..

 

Bond 24..will it have the eventual title of the film mentioned in context in the film by one of the characters or no? (I think Tomorrow Never Dies and Quantum of Solace were the only films, at least that I can remember, where the title wasn't mentioned)

NO - I think they will go down the "Quantum Of Solace" route and not mention the title this time.

 

Will James Bond be washed up once more in 'Bond 24'

 

 

YES - There will be some inner turmoil after the death of M, and the scars he bears from his past once more coming up to hit him

 

OR

 

NO - He will be fresh faced, with no inner demons or struggles that will hold him back; he'll be an agent at the top of his game
