The Death Collector would be a cool title.
You Only Shatterhand The Castle of Death Twiceā¦!
Thatās what Iām holding out for and Iāll be massively disappointed if itās not the title.

Die a fatal death had my vote
I registered the domain name for www.neverdietwicesoyoucankilltomorrowwithlove.com - Eon will have to pay me some big money to get it back. Like chess, Iām always thinking three moves ahead. Damn Iām good.

It would be a neat piece of misdirection for EON to secure Shatterhand as a domain name simply to draw attention away from other titles also being registered.
Then again, I donāt understand how the process works, so there are probably no more layers to it.

That was superb.

Would click thrus enable, or promote ānewsā?

Depends how slow the actual news isā¦personally wouldnāt count 5 clicks as news, but, hey, google claims āthe random blokes hot takeā is news, so itās clearly a low bar.

Probably not completely true. There was a discussion, I believe, but no real offer since EON wanted a bigger name (and got it). But Layton was on the list, and he obviously wanted to milk that attention for himself.
File it under Hiddleston.

I agree, I think it was the consideration for the job he turned down, not the actual gig. No film, big or small, is offered to a director without many discussions on what they want to do first.

Rory Kinnear is unsure of his return for Bond 25, at this point.
I saw that earlier, I reckon he definitely is. He wants to do it, the Boyle version had him in it, and EON have been fond of the character since Goldeneye (Robinson was only brought in when Michael Kitchen proved unavailable - but, hey, gave us more Colin Salmon which is only ever a good thing.)

I do hope Kinnear returns as Tanner and Iād be surprised if he doesnāt.
The interesting implication of his comments is that EON are significantly rewriting Bond 25. This would suggest we wonāt get much from the Boyle-Hodge treatment.
Which takes us back to one of my original remarks after the news of Fukunagaās signing, would he bring one of his True Detective or Maniac writers on board for a polish? Appears so.
Or, more likely, do it himself.

The filmmaker wouldnāt choose a favorite classic Bond, though did say that the first film he ever watched was āA View to Killā with Roger Moore. āI donāt think you can pick one though,ā he said, ābecause every single one of them has brought their thing to it and its nice to have that difference, itās nice to have the change of the character over time.ā
