I usually start a Bond review with my typical Bond spiel, about how I don’t quite get the franchise, about how I loved the opening sequences as a kid, about how I always got a kick out of the villains, but other than that, the movies always seemed like an excuse for set pieces, extravagant locations, and giant spectacle to me. Writers: John Logan (revised by Neal Purvis & Robert Wade)ĭetails: Octo– 129 pages – shooting script And when I say “longtime,” I mean “longtime.” These guys go all the way back to Tomorrow Never Dies, which I’m pretty sure starred Roger Moore. It’s been rewritten by longtime Bond collaborators Neal Purvis & Robert Wade. Spectre is written by John Logan, who burst onto the scene in 1999 with his spec script, Any Given Sunday. Why can’t he be Native American? Point being, there’s always so much drama over this character. I don’t know why we HAVE to have a black James Bond though. If he’s black, great, if he’s not, great too. Then there’s this strange underground movement to make the next James Bond black. Despite this, less than a month ago, he stated he’d rather kill himself than do another Bond film (although some people have implied this is a negotiating tactic). And let’s not forget that Craig regularly takes pot-shots at the franchise, the only films, mind you, that anyone seems to care about him in.
It is healthier than Uber’s stock price, making billions of dollars every time it hits the streets, yet the debate over whether its current star, Daniel Craig, is a worthy James Bond or not seems as heated as ever. Premise: Bond goes off on a personal mission to find an elusive character known as The Pale King, only to stumble upon a secret organization known as “Spectre.”Ībout: What a strange place the Bond franchise finds itself in. Can the latest James Bond script win over a skeptical reviewer? Or will it be a spectretacular disaster?
