    The film title doesn't help.

    That title sounds like part of the title of a particularly low-rent Spaghetti Western: No Time To Die, Sartana, If You Live Shoot!

    Sensible thing to do, no one knows how this is going to play out (the corona virus that is) the film will be very predictable.

    I’d heard people were writing letters of protest trying to get it postponed as they were expecting 5000 rocking up on opening night up in London, in Leicester square or wherever it is they do things these days, and worries about corona virus being passed on.

    Yes, apparently the founders of two big bond fan sites had written open letters in the past few days calling on the film to be delayed due to the outbreak.
    Seen some figures that film experts suggest up to 5 billion could be lost at the box office due to Coronavirus fears/outbreaks

    Strong rumours that Tom Hardy is to be confirmed as the next Bond.

    To be fair,  I think I am only basing this on Peaky Blinders 

    Not sure can remember seeing him in anything else.

    He was very good in those old "All Creatures Great and Small" series on Gold.

    Interesting that they have stuck with the Daniel Craig mould - a more rugged Bond, while sexually attractive to many, rather than a Roger Moore or George Lazenby smoothie. 

    I think he is a pretty decent actor and he has proven enough in physical role eg Bane in Batman that he has got what it takes.

    I suggest you watch Bronson, or The Revenant - he’s undoubtedly a brilliant actor.

    So they’re going from wooden and one dimensional to wooden and one dimensional.

    Bit of eye candy for the ladies to balance up on all the eye candy for the men.

    I just hope there’s some decent action and one liners as I’m running out of patience with it tbh.

    He'll do fine as Bond.  Will just be relieved that they will not have gone down the whole Woke shit route and ruined another tradition.

    I think a woke Bond would be very funny. I'm surprised no one's done it as a spoof.

    He was superb in Bronson, but that was years ago.

    You Only Livd Twice - because Dad worked on the volcano. 

    Connery

    Nobody Does It Better

    Idris Elba or Tom Hardy would both be good.

    Daniel Craig is a perfect Bond, disdainful  pretty slight and enormously sarcastic 

    Tom Hardy is a big dude, same as Idris Elba both great actors but not Bond

    It’s going to be James Norton. You read it here first.

    It's now just rather outdated and probably needs to end soon.

    It's always best to know when to stop. 

    Then the old films can just be reflected on and still be an enjoyment to watch.

    It's getting too much.

    It's now just some repetitive shit.

    Idris Elba is too old to pull it off now. The way things are these days, they'll probably give it to some no mark celeb from towie.........
