Kind of think his talents are wasted on this creaky old franchise.
Agreed, but I'm gonna see the movie and I haven't seen the past 5. He could something cool with it
Haven't they finished all the original books already?
There were original books?!?
No. I need at least 20-25 more spy one-man-army action movies before I watch anything original again.
For real, though. He should do original/unique movies. Leave the generic slop factory shit for Michael Bay clones.
And make them all operate more like incomprehensible cologne commercials than action stories.
I could not be more disappointed.
Sure you could be. It could have been Rian Johnson.
Every Bond trope: subverted.
Or even worse M Night.
But that twist that Q was the real villain mastermind the whole time...
Creating the Bond villains to have something to do. :)
I meant that Denis is working on a Bond film instead of something actually interesting.
Why? He directed Sicaro, and that turned out pretty well. The same goes for Dune, Arrival, and Bladerunner. Not saying everything he's done is amazing, but he seems to know what he's doing.
Sicario and Arrival were great successes that I thoroughly enjoyed. The atmospheres of Dune and Bladerunner were perfect but the stories felt like hollow shells of the originals. Maybe he should just stick to original productions.
I think that's just more the nature of adaptations. Dune is an incredibly difficult story to adapt, and his version is the best adaptation that currently exists. It's also subjective and your opinion is hardly the consensus.
Said it above but I am disappointed he’s working on Bond. Would rather see him do really anything else.
Take off the last word from that title, see what that does
You son of a bitch, I'm in
Cue the people saying “DENNIS VILL A NEW AY VAY”
Please. Please. Hope do you pronounce it? I have no idea! I feel very stupid!
Oh for sure!
“Duhnii Villnuv”
Like uhhh
Dah-nieye vill-nuhvvv” (maybe without the hard v?
Edit: like “Dahniy vill noob” but with a soft b at the end? Neuvue”?
He looks like a Bond villain! Stroking hairless cat "And now I shall direct your film, Mr. Bond."
