I noticed that there wasn't a proper thread for discussion of Bond 23 - so, to rectify that oversight, here it is .
Daniel Craig confirmed earlier this week that production on Bond 23 will begin at "the end of next year". I'm guessing, then, that we can expect to see it sometime towards the end of 2011 (which seems a long way off I know!).
So then, what do you guys want to see from Bond 23? It's already been confirmed that it will be written by Peter Morgan ("The Queen", "Frost/Nixon"), and regular Bond scribes Neal Purvis and Robert Wade (groan ...), but not much else is known at present (other than that Daniel Craig will once again be playing 007).
I'm guessing that, after the lukewarm critical reception that was received by the downbeat "QOS", that they'll make the tone of the film somewhat lighter (though hopefully without the cheesiness of "DAD"). I would also not be surprised if Q, Moneypenny, and gadgetry also found their way back into the franchise ...
I also hope that they'll give at least some kind of closure to the "Quantum" storyline of the last 2 instalments ...
What do you all think?

I am not sure whether I like the idea of Sam Mendes directing a Bond film or not. I have nothing against his previous work, but I just think that this is not right for him.
that would be weird... I'd prefer them to continue with the orginal idea and not the new ones...
even though Craig is not so bad...
I annoys me that all the gadgets part is restricted to regular cell phone... no romance in it.
Clovie ?! Woah, long time no see; glad to see you back here again .
I think it would be interesting to have Blofeld come back, but - as actor Michael Sheen pointed out in an interview - after the Austin Powers series sent him up so successfully, a credible, dangerous Blofeld would be difficult to pull off for the Craig era ...
