The Spectre of James Bond

What Did You Think of Skyfall?

I didn't think much of Skyfall, the last James Bond film — I thought the story was terrible, though the great Daniel Craig did his best with it— but I will always appreciate the details and the clothes associated with the franchise; and we must never give up hope that a Bond film will match From Russia with Love. Why don't they produce a series of Bond films set in the '50s or '60s? They could start with the Bond story Devil May Care by Sebastian Faulks.

Details are coming out for the new Bond film Spectre, scheduled for release at the end of the year. Intel suggests that, as well as his Tom Ford suits, Bond will be wearing a few choice British pieces. This is all hush-hush, so keep it under your hat in case Spectre get wind and the whole kibosh goes plughole.
