7 d. ago How do you celebrate James Bond Day when you don’t know who the next 007 will be?

All things Bond will be commemorated on 5 October. But while the new movie has a director and writer attached, we’re still none the wiser as to who will play the super-spyIt’s James Bond Day this Sunday, if you didn’t know – 5 October is now a celebration of all things 007, thanks to this being the date of the world premiere of Dr No, the very first Bond film, starring Sean Connery, in 1962. Imagine it as a bit like Star Wars Day, with fewer Wookiees and Ewoks and a whole lot more tuxedoed swagger.This year though, the advent of JBD (as no one has ever called it) is bit of a damp squib. It hasn’t been that long since Denis Villeneuve was announced as the director of the next Bond film (June, in fact) and even less time since Peaky Blinders’ Steven Knight was hired to write the script. But there’s been little to no sign since then of the new 007 actually being revealed, and even less sense of where this venerable franchise is going next.

8 d. ago GoldenEye review – Pierce Brosnan’s ‘sexist, misogynist dinosaur’ makes his Bond movie debut

The 1995 spy adventure introduced Brosnan as 007 and Judi Dench as M – blending high-octane action with a cheeky post-Soviet self-awarenessThis James Bond film from 1995, reissued for its 30th anniversary, is named after Ian Fleming’s own “Goldeneye” estate in Jamaica – though perhaps oddly, the film’s only Caribbean location is supposed to be Cuba. There’s a fair bit to enjoy here, although perhaps it’s best experienced on TV over Christmas in a Quality Street stupor. GoldenEye was the first to star Pierce Brosnan as 007, the first to see Judi Dench as M, and the first film to challenge its own franchise identity. As M crisply says to Bond: “I think you are a sexist, misogynist dinosaur and a relic of the cold war” – although her criticism of her star agent begins and ends with that description.The film gamely attempts to reposition itself in the new post-Soviet world, with a key scene (and some of the opening sequence) taking place among the discarded, crumbling statues of Soviet ...
