Skyfall - The 23rd Bond Movie

Meh. I hated Quantum of Solace. And not just for the pretentious and confusing title.

It is assumed that under the right circumstances, Daniel Craig could return as the one and only James Bond in the imminent part of this million dollar franchise.
It is also said that the newest 007 film is back. Sam Mendes has pulled himself out of negotiations in order to direct the futuristic thriller titled The Hunger Games since the studio MGM are ready to shift ahead with the production on the 23rd Bond. It has been revealed that the shooting for the film could begin by late months of summer or by the early autumn in the year 2011. Earlier Daniel Craig’s Bond flick was put on an indefinite hold as EON Productions was blaming the monetary troubles faced by the MGM studios. The famous studio is reported to have a total of 3.7 billion-dollars in debt. MGM very recently announced that its lenders have all agreed to expand the time span of the company’s debt repayment which enables them to actually go ahead and start with the latest Bond flick. The studio, which also has a venture in the imminent Hobbit film, is going all the way through a pre-packaged economic failure before Spyglass takes control. It is also said that Craig is pretty desperate to return as 007. |
What was once rumored has now been confirmed: Javier Bardem will play a Bond villain in the as-yet-untitled James Bond 23, directed by Sam Mendes (American Beauty) from a screenplay by John Logan, Neal Purvis and Robert Wade.
"I am very excited. My parents took me to watch the movies, and I saw all of them, so to play that is going to be fun," the Oscar winning actor told ABC Nightline (via ComingSoon). “They chose me to play this man, but I cannot give you many details.” By “details,” Bardem means he can not confirm other standing rumors that Daniel Craig’s 007 might finally face off against classic adversary Blofeld in the upcoming sequel. As Eric points out in an earlier story, Blofeld has been non-existent in the Bond franchise since 1981. But Craig’s entrance to the series virtually rebooted the storyline, meaning now – in his third effort – would be an ideal time to introduce a powerful villain who has been pulling the strings behind the scenes, frustrating Craig’s Bond over the course of both Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. Could Bardem be that guy? More important, should Bardem be that guy, or would you rather see him play an altogether different villain? For now, let’s just celebrate the fact that Bardem’s down for James Bond 23, which will be in theaters on Nov. 9, 2012. |
I havent watched either of the new Bond movies but Bardem is a badass so it should be good.

But I agree on QofS sucked big time. |
I don't care who's acting in it, they need to bring back the classic Aston Martin as the bond car.
I could've give less of a crap about the story, or who the actor is. We need more classic Aston Martins!! Just don't wreck 'em. |

The 23rd James Bond movie will be titled Skyfall.
http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/...Skyfall007.jpg The name was revealed today (November 3) at the launch press conference for Daniel Craig's third outing as Ian Fleming's secret agent. The new 007 movie will see Craig star alongside a returning Judi Dench and franchise newcomers Javier Bardem, Ralph Fiennes and Albert Finney. Craig said that the film will be "Bond with a capital 'B' ", adding: "It's all in the script and we've got a great script." Bérénice Marlohe will play a character called Severin in the film, who she described as "glamorous" and "enigmatic". Naomie Harris will play a field agent called Eve. The movie will not relate to an original Fleming story, but the title "has some emotional context which will be revealed in the film". Oscar-winning American Beauty director Sam Mendes will direct Skyfall from a script by John Logan, Neal Purvis and Robert Wade. "I thought the story was fantastic," Mendes said. "I love Daniel and Judi. This is an enormous challenge." He added that "Skyfall is its own story" and "doesn't connect with the last two movies". Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson will again serve as producers. Craig's previous James Bond films Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace have grossed more than $1 billion (£625 million) at the worldwide box office. Source: Digitalspy.co.uk |

Craig's newest 007 outing, Skyfall, also starring Javier Bardem, Judi Dench, Ben Whishaw, Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris, Berenice Marlohe and Ola Rapace opens October 26th in the UK and November 9th in the US.
Empire Cinemas is reporting that Skyfall will come in at a lengthy 145 minutes, which puts it a tad longer than Casino Royale and about forty-minutes longer than Quantum of Solace. http://collider.com/james-bond-skyfa...urette/194052/ |
Have been excited for this since it was announced. Will be there opening night! :)

I am really looking forward to seeing this, I love Danielle Craig x
|
It'll be fun to see the movie. Though I don't expect much from it. I expect it to be an actionfilled movie. Which isn't James Bond to me sadly. The best Bond movies were those with Sean Connery and Roger Moore in my opinion.
