Discuss No Time to Die

We've had

LIVE AND LET DIE

TOMORROW NEVER DIES

DIE ANOTHER DAY

and now the title of Bond 25 is:

NO TIME TO DIE

Completely unoriginal and boring and repetitive sounding. Appalling lack of creativity by the Bond producers. Let's hope the film is more exciting than the title.

I'm looking forward to this film, BUT that title sucks!

Title is solid. 100% Bond, doesn't give away aspects of the plot, and isn't uninspired like "SPECTRE" was.

The problem is the lack of originality. Ian Fleming wrote one Bond novel with the word 'die' included: LIVE AND LET DIE. He never referenced the word again. LIVE AND LET DIE was a clever twist on the adage 'Live and Let Live'. Ian Fleming was clever and imaginative. The Bond producers , however, are not clever nor imaginative. They have rehashed the word 'die' three times. What more proof do you need they have zero imagination?

It feels as if the producers are just going through the motions. It's like they thought about a title, none of their writing team could think up anything remotely fresh or exciting or with subtext and someone suggested" how about something with die in it?" And Babs said "yeah, let do that!"

They came up with the following titles:

A WAY TO DIE

A METHOD TO DIE

NEVER SAY DIE

A REASON TO DIE

MG Wilson was getting bored and looked at his watch.

"I know, how about NO TIME TO DIE?"

Babs smiles and says "brilliant, Michael!" You're a genius!"

I'd need to see a source for half of those alleged titles. Only A REASON TO DIE and A WAY TO DIE have I seen rumoured before.

Fleming might have been imaginative at the time, but if the producers choose from one of his remaining titles then that would be the laziest and most uninspired thing they could possibly do. Ironic, no?

I doubt Eon Productions do 'irony'. Leave that to The Simpsons or South Park. wink

Daniel Craig is back as James Bond 007 in

SLASH WRISTS NEVER AGAIN!

:P
