Mar 5 2008, 3:43 PM EST Hunt. Hunt was an incredible visual stylist, and shot to edit--and he was a ruthless editor. OHMSS remains one of the most impressive looking Bond movies. And those crazy edit sequences...what a mad-man! I'm not sure Kubrick would have been a good Bond director. I have this image of the briefing with M and Bond being 15 minutes long...with long...pauses. And I LOVE Kubrick's movies! And to see what Welles would have been like, check out a movie called "The Lady from Shanghai." He could have done it--it would have been wild, though. The closest he got was "Casino Royale" (1967). He played LeChiffre. Do you find this valuable? |

Mar 6 2008, 7:51 PM EST I'd like to see F.W. Murnau's version of Diamonds Are Forever, Buster Keaton's take on From Russia With Love, and Georges Melies's interpretation of Moonraker. Do you find this valuable? |

Mar 6 2008, 7:59 PM EST And how about a David Lean production of "The Spy Who Loved Me"! (Which referenced both Doctor Zhivago and Lawrence of Arabia.) Omar Sharif as Bond and Alec Guinness as Stromberg. At the end, Jaws could mutter "What have I done?" and fall on the plunger that destroys Atlantis. Meanwhile Bond gets XXX alone in escape pod and declares, "Madness. Madness! Let's get out of these wet things." Do you find this valuable? |

Mar 15 2008, 5:39 PM EDT Pretty damn funny, G-A. I can imagine those films, actually. Heh! If you've seen the DVD doc on "The Spy Who Loved Me," you know that Kubrick DID work...in secret...on that film. His daughter worked with Ken Adam's art department--she actually designed Jaws' teeth!! And Adam asked Kubrick's help in designing the lighting for the cavernous Liparus submarine pen, which he did...for his designer on "Dr. Strangelove" and "Barry Lyndon." Do you find this valuable? |

Some suggestions as to who could direct a 007 film
Mar 17 2008, 3:41 AM EDT ""Break on through to the other side"Jim Morrison: Okay, he was a Door, but, judging from his work on his film (unreleased), Hitchhiker, an American pastoral, would've been perfect to direct Bond. Alfred Hitchcock: A great suspense director from the 1930's and right through to the late 1970's. What more could you want? Steven Spielberg: Spielberg has always wanted to direct a 007 film. Plus he's a great director with such films as the Indiana Jones series and Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind. Do you find this valuable? |

Mar 18 2008, 12:26 AM EDT "Imagine John Huston directing Daniel Craig in grainy black & white. Bond by way of Bogart."Now THAT would be cool ! Film noir Bond.....after all ,they were (are) period books and themes. And Monty Norman would've wrote Third Man theme if Wells directed. WOW! Do you find this valuable? |
