The Ultimate James Bond Collection (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder (1 Viewer)

[Richard Fuchs]

Wonder if Spectre is included at that price? If we finally get the special edition of QOS I may re-buy. I'm surprised they've pushed the price this low overall. I'm also hoping we get the remaining steelbooks.

Another James Bond Collection has hit Amazon for 2016 release.


Dirt cheap. Perhaps the discs come in a paper bag.

Agreed the set is so low. Hard to believe. I'm sure new prints are coming with bond 25 in a few more years.

Unfortunately with the price the market being so low for these there is not much incentive for the studio to go back and do any sort of remastering on these for Blu ray. I suspect the next upgrade will get will be 4k. I guess in some ways were lucky that some of blu raysnat least look quite good, some look okay and only a few are a mess such as Goldeneye.

For anyone who hasn't already noticed this, the link Ron posted has now been updated by Amazon to reflect that the listing is for "007: The Daniel Craig 4-Film Collection." I knew that list price for all the films was too good to be true and I've cancelled my preorder.

I saw this as well. Thanks for posting.

Production designer Ken Adam has died. Bond hasn't really been Bond since he departed the series--his opulent but witty designs "branded" the series.http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-35780260

I heard! He was so good at what he did. Loved his beautiful set designs! Moonraker is one of his best for sure!!
There are some behind the scenes home movies that he narrated in the blu Ray extras. So good. I love watching those.

Not as dirt cheap as what Ron was offering (before it turned out to be fake) but this set is still under a hundred at Amazon:

RIP Guy Hamilton, age 93. Lost another key member of the Bond team.

RIP four-time 007 director Guy Hamilton, age 93. Lost another key member of the Bond team.

BBC America has been showing Goldfinger almost every night so good job Guy on the best Bond film so far.

RIP Guy Hamilton, age 93. Lost another key member of the Bond team.

One of the very few Assistant Directors who went on to become a successful director. His best work was not in James Bond films. Man In The Middle and Funeral In Berlin, to take just two examples, are far better films.

Great article on guy. He really did shape of many other following James Bond films with goldfinger.

I really enjoy all of his James Bond films.

 

[Osato]

Rumor, but this seems logical.
10 years is a long time.
Enter Christopher Nolan???

Nolan? I sure hope not. Martin Campbell has right of first refusal, in my opinion. He's done a fantastic job of introducing the last two Bonds.

Tim Hiddleston would be okay, but I favor Aaron Johnson. Hiddleston's neck is too thin. Reminds me of Brosnan not being entirely believable in the more action oriented parts of his films (other than "Goldeneye" where he actually had a decent build). The physicality of the part must be taken into consideration after what Craig has done with the role.

 

[Osato]

The BBC is stating that Craig is still signed for one more picture and nothing has been decided...

I don't believe that particular article (it states they offered him co-producer credit but he already had that on Spectre) but I still think he won't return.

There's an interview in YouTube between Mark Kermode and Sam Mendes where Mendes talks about how, during the Mexico City chase, they had to rewrite it to have Bond walking because it hurt too much for him to run (it's the part where all the police are lined up). Hearing something like that makes me think he'll call it a day...
