I just read on a news site that the new Bond movie will be written by three top writers namely: Peter Morgan (The Queen, The last king of Scotland and Frost/Nixon) and the duo Purvis/Wade.
I haven't seen any of those movies by Morgan so I'm not going to comment on that (though I do hope that Haggis will do the polish again), but saying Purvis and Wade are top??? What a joke!
How do you think it will sound if you announce the new Bond movie like this:
"From the writers of The world is not enough and Die another Day"

I hate QOS. It is dumb action without much story: you gain nothing in the end storywise.
So to me they had a one-off and the polish of Haggis did much.
