JAMES BOND 007
Official Trailer for 'The Sound of 007' Doc About Iconic Bond Themes
"Nobody does it better…" Amazon has revealed an official trailer for a Bond Day offering coming to Prime Video in October titled The Sound of 007. Bond Day is October 5th - did everyone know this? I'm not sure why they didn't call this The Music of 007 instead, because my first thought is this is a behind-the-scenes look at the sound design of the movies? Nope. The Sound of 007 is a feature-length doc film (88 minutes) telling the remarkable history of six decades of James Bond music, going behind the lens into one of the greatest movie franchise and the iconic 007 theme song. Mixing heartfelt interviews with incredible James Bond archive material, telling the story of the composers behind the Bond themes, as well as the iconic Bond Songs. Featuring tons of interviews, including with Hans Zimmer who gushes in this trailer about Bond's legacy. Amazon seems to be readying a number of surprises for Bond Day, with this doc as the centerpiece.

Watch: 60 Years of James Bond Tribute from 2022 Oscars Ceremony
"Do you expect me to talk?" "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die!" Over the last 60 years, James Bond movies have won a total of six Academy Awards. Most recently the spy movies have been winning for Best Original Song (Skyfall, Spectre, and No Time to Die this year) but they've also won some sound awards (Goldfinger for Best Sound Effects, Skyfall for Best Sound Editing). Despite all of that, Eon Productions convinced The Academy to include a 2-minute long "60 Years of Bond" tribute during the 2022 Oscars show this year. It's pretty much a classic YouTube tribute supercut with a bunch of iconic clips edited together along with the "Live and Let Die" song and it's awesome. No Time to Die, the 25th Bond movie, opened in theaters last fall and made tons of money at the box office world. Why not celebrate the excellence of Bond at the Oscars? If you haven't seen it or want to rewatch the tribute - check it out below. "To us, Mr. Bond. We are the best."

Watch: The Best Video Tribute to the Daniel Craig Era of James Bond
"Any thug can kill. I want you to take your ego out of the equation." Daniel Craig's era as James Bond is over. No Time to Die wrapped up his storyline as Agent 007 - after 5 movies and 15 years. Was he one of the best Bonds? That's up to everyone to decide on their own. Daniel Craig was the sixth James Bond over the franchise's 50 years, taking over for Pierce Brosnan (who finished in 2002). His first movie was Casino Royale in 2006, regarded as one of the best Bond movies ever made. He followed that up with Quantum of Solace (2008) then Skyfall (2012) then Spectre (2015) and ending with No Time to Die (2021). "The Blue eyes Bond." There have been many tributes to Craig's era, but this might be the best one yet. This "Daniel Craig Era Complete" video tribute on YouTube was made by the user "SxDementia" and covers all five of his films and it's a joy to watch. It's the editing and all the music that makes it so good. View the tribute below.

Review: 'No Time to Die' is a Satisfying End to Daniel Craig's Bond Era
It's the end of an era. After starring in 5 movies over the last 15 years, English actor Daniel Craig is done with James Bond. No Time To Die is Craig's final Bond outing, his swan song in many ways, as these 5 movies have connected with storylines playing out across each of them. And this final one wraps things up as best it can. Years ago when they rebooted with Casino Royale, Eon Productions decided to try making the new Bond movies with ongoing narratives. Almost every other movie before this era was just a standalone movie: Bond would go off on his important mission, take out the bad guy and save the day; everything would start fresh again with the next movie. Ever since Casino Royale in 2006, Bond has been dealing with the guilt and sadness of losing his great love, Vesper Lynd. And with this fifth movie, they've put themselves in a situation where they have to tie up all the loose ends and usher all these characters to a satisfying end point.

'No Time to Die' Featurette on New Agents Including Lashana Lynch
"You get in my way, I will put a bullet in your knee." With just a few weeks before the world premiere, Eon Productions has dropped a new "featurette" for No Time to Die, the 25th Bond movie. The video focuses on two "New Agents" from MI6 introduced in this new Bond movie: Nomi, played by Lashana Lynch, and Paloma, played by Ana de Armas. We also featured two final trailers for No Time to Die a few weeks ago; it's still opening in October worldwide. When this movie begins, Bond has left active service. His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous tech. The cast includes Jeffrey Wright as Felix, Ralph Fiennes as M, Naomie Harris as Moneypenny, Ben Whishaw as Q; plus Rami Malek, Léa Seydoux, Billy Magnussen, Rory Kinnear, and David Dencik. I think it's crazy badass to see these two ladies in this new Bond movie! I just hope they get more than just a few minutes to shine. It's time for a female Bond.

Second Trailer for Cary Fukunaga's New Bond Movie 'No Time to Die'
"You can imagine why I've come back to play." Universal & MGM have released the second official trailer for No Time to Die, the 25th Bond movie and the fifth movie starring Daniel Craig as Agent 007. The first trailer debuted last year (if you can believe it) because this was originally supposed to open in March, but Eon delayed it until November. So far they're sticking with that new release date. When No Time to Die begins, Bond has left active service. His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new tech.

Watch: Daniel Craig's Full 7-Minute Heineken Anti-Bond Commercial
"I think you have my bag." Almost everyone has seen the Heineken ad that aired during the Super Bowl earlier this year, promoting No Time to Die and starring Daniel Craig as himself but also kind of, sort of as James Bond. The TV spot is a cut down version of a rather lovely 7-minute short film directed by Miles Jay, and it's now available to watch online in full. The story involves "Mr. Craig" losing his wallet and bag inside a taxi driven by a woman who is late to a party. He goes chasing after her, and ends up at the same beautiful castle where they bump into each other. I quite enjoyed this short because we get to see a different side of Craig. Now that he's done playing Bond after No Time to Die (which was delayed until November this fall) he seems to be distancing himself from the character, and showing how talented he is (e.g. Knives Out). The later moment with the woman in this is an especially great example of how soft he can be. Watch below.
