Operating as a lone wolf. From what I can gather, he may not fully trust everyone at MI6....

Will Mendes return for Bond 25:

Yes, finish what he started and close out the Craig era in style
OR
No, he will be burnt out on Bond after SPECTRE and we'll get fresh blood for the next installment
?

[thecasinoroyale]

I think YES; this is a journey now, with a great cast and crew and it's his journey to take to the end in the world he started in 'Skyfall'.

 

 

Should 'Bond 25' have a title begin with S to make this Craig's SSS trilogy?

 

YES - Works rather well really and will fit with 'Skyfall' and 'Spectre' ; short and snappy.

 

OR

 

NO - What are you talking about? Go for a lie down.

 

??

[seawolfnyy]

Yes, methinks it'll go great with Skyfall and SPECTRE. Having said that, go for a lie down.

Will we get the true SPECTRE arc with Craig's Bond that we didn't in the 60s:
Yes, Waltz is in fact who we think he is and everything will come to a head in Bond 25 or 26
OR
No, we've all been misinterpreting it and it's actually Spectre
?

[The Dove]

I'm 99.9% sure YES, Waltz is in fact who we think he is and everything will come to a head in Bond 25.

 

Will you be doing a straight run-through of all the Bond films, beginning with Dr. No, in the days leading up to the release of SPECTRE? YES or NO?

[AMC Hornet]

No. I've seen the films too often to need a refresher. Even a mini-marathon of Craig's three so far would be unnecessary.

 

Best infiltration #4:

 

The heroin complex at the beginning of Goldfinger

or

Archangel chemical weapons facility in GoldenEye

?

[seawolfnyy]

Goldinger. Classic.


Worst infiltration:
Missile silo in The World Is Not Enough
OR
Crab Key in Dr. No
?

[DaveBond21]

Missile silo in TWINE

 

Better scene:-

 

Lupe tells Pam and Q who much she loves James in LTK

 

or

 

Jinx and Miranda "He did you too? I didn't know he was that desperate" in DAD

 

??

[thecasinoroyale]

Lupe tells Pam and Q who much she loves James in 'LTK' - great reactions from all involved, especially Q; really showing how much he knows what Bond is like and the trouble he's caused.

 

 

With our 'Spectre' teaser this weekend, will Christoph Waltz be evident?

 

YES - Even a small tease, like the silhouette of Silva in 'SF', we will feel or hear Waltz's presence

 

OR

 

NO - Words may be spoken about his character, but we will not yet see anything of him until later

 

??

[The Dove]

No, I think for this first teaser we will not see or hear anything of him..(though I hope I am wrong!)

 

Do you think we'll get the "Bond, James Bond" line in this first teaser trailer for SPECTRE? YES or NO?

[Call Billy Bob]

Hopefully, yes. I'm getting a classic Bond vibe from the film so far!

 

 

Will we get a gunbarrel glimpse in the teaser? YES or NO

[seawolfnyy]

Yes, I'm hoping for a Casino Royale-like trailer.


Will we see Bond with either Monica Bellucci or Lea Seydoux in bed in the trailer:
Yes
OR
No
?

[DaveBond21]

No.

 

Who would you rather have dinner with:-

 

Columbo from FYEO

 

or

 

Zukovsky from Goldeneye / TWINE

 

??

[AMC Hornet]

Columbo. He didn't shoot up Bond's chair in a fit of pique.

 

Cooler atmosphere moment:

 

Bond meeting Magda poolside in OP

or

Bond cruising through the Casino in NSNA

?

[glidrose]

Bond meeting Magda poolside in OP.

 

Better scorned Bond score:

 

NSNA or GE.

[DaveBond21]

Goldeneye

 

What would you rather watch right now:-

 

A documentary about Roger Moore's time as Bond

 

or

 

A documentary about Daniel Craig's time as Bond

 

??

[Trevelyan 006]

Let's go with a documentary on Sir Roger's stint. It would have to be nice and meaty, due to the length of his tenure and all the classic Bond moments his films conjured.

 

Die Another Day gets a script reworking (to something slightly worse than what we know the film to be today)

 

OR

 

The World Is Not Enough ends up being Pierce Brosnan's last Bond film

Edited by Trevelyan 006, 27 March 2015 - 12:10 AM.

[seawolfnyy]

Die Another Day getting reworked into a worse film. Without DAD, I don't think the producers would've seen the error of their ways and we wouldn't have gotten the excellent Casino Royale that we have.


Brosnan in Casino Royale
OR
Craig in Die Another Day
?

[thecasinoroyale]

Craig in 'Die Another Day'. Young enough to pull it off more than a weary Brosnan.

 

 

Who was Pierce Brosnan let down by during his finale as 007, in your view:

 

EON - They were lazy with the character and lost their way

 

OR

 

Fans - Quick to pan him and the film, without supporting him for a future film

 

??

[seawolfnyy]

EON. They completely lost their way.the films were never given the respect they deserved by the producers during the Brosnan era. Not like they have for Craig.

Would Everything Or Nothing have made a better swan song for Brosnan:
Yes, it's story made more sense and would have easily translated to the big screen
OR
No, the game was basically Die Another Day, with invisible cars and absurd gadgets. We forgive it because it was a video game and because of how horrendous Die Another Day is
?

[thecasinoroyale]

No - It was the 'DAD' of video games, but at least it admitted it was a video game so we could forgive it!

 

 

With the revival of SPECTRE, do you think future Bond films will bring back classic villains?

 

YES - Who wouldn't want to see a new Dr.No, Red Grant or Emilio Largo 50 years on in a new era

 

OR

 

NO - Classic they may be and that means they can't be touched; plenty of new characters can be introduced

 

??

[AMC Hornet]

No - those stories have been told, and EON doesn't need to invite the inevitable comparisons.

Besides, there are still plenty of elements to be mined from the books and the films.

 

Bond's duel with Scaramanga

or

Bond's final confrontation with Renard

?

[seawolfnyy]

Duel with Scaramanga.


Better death:
Trevelyan
OR
Elektra

[thecasinoroyale]

Elektra. Swfit and brutal. Trevelyan's was good but a little OTT at the end of the day.

 

 

Will Christoph Waltz survive 'Spectre'?

 

YES - He will have unfinished business for 'Bond 25'

 

OR

 

NO - Just the pawn of a much bigger figure pulling the strings

 

??

[The Dove]

YES- I think Mr. Waltz will be back for Bond 25 with unfinished business..

 

Bond film and soundtrack mixup:  Quantum of Solace with John Barry's OHMSS sound track, Live And Let Die with Bill Conti's FYEO soundtrack OR Goldeneye with David Arnold's TWINE soundtrack?

[seawolfnyy]

Goldeneye with the TWINE soundtrack. It would be an improvement on Eric Serra's bland score.


Will the events of Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace be referenced in SPECTRE:
Yes, they laid the groundwork for everything that will happen in SPECTRE
OR
No, SPECTRE will relate more to Skyfall and the arc will be more contained within Mendes' tenure
?

[glidrose]

It's hardly spoilerish to mention that with Mr. White back in the fold the answer to your question is fairly obvious.

[thecasinoroyale]

Ok...

 

 

So, the 'SPECTRE' teaser:

 

YES - Teased us enough to want more, and was nothing but clear in a slow introduction to SPECTRE themselves

 

or

 

NO - No action, nothing very exciting, a bit of a let down compared to previous teasers

 

??

[seawolfnyy]

Teased enough to want more. They aren't playing games with what SPECTRE means. They're back. After 45 years, they're back....

Ok, so since glidrose didn't like mine

Who will kill Mr. White:
Bond
OR
SPECTRE
?

[The Dove]

Hmm..Perhaps a member of SPECTRE takes him out by blowing up his cabin after Bond leaves with the information..

Of those characters we did NOT see in this first teaser, who are you most looking forward to seeing in the next.. Lucia Sciarra, Mr. Hinx, Denbighy, OR Madeline Swann?

[seawolfnyy]

Well since we DID see Lucia Sciarra, I will say Madeliene Swann with Mr. Hinx being a close second.


How long after Skyfall do you think SPECTRE is set:
A few months
OR
At least a year, probably more
?
