    Looks like Martin Campbell won't be available to direct Bond 22. He's directing a movie called Unstoppable

    Ah, well...Mr. Cat, I'm sure you're disappointed. But you must be brave during times as trying as these... {:)

    I hope Eon chooses well this time round---and by 'well,' I don't mean another seemingly arbitrary, cover-your-eyes-and-hurl-a-dart-at-the-wall method they've occasionally used in the past :s

    The deliberation afforded in this area is, IMRO, most important.

    Just watched "Blackhawk Down" again, and while he has been prevously nominated, I would put forward Ridley Scott....not sure how he does the "tender scenes, but for a kick a** action film I think he could do oo7 justice.

    Okay definitely no Campbell for Bond 22. Empire have him down to direct a remake of the excellent French movie 36 Quai des Orfevres. That's as well as directing Unstoppable next year. Read all about it here.

    I've long hoped that Brian DePalma would direct a Bond film. The man knows suspense. Witness the wonderful Untouchables to name only one. My first choice would have been John Frankenheimer but as has been noted, sadly he is no longer with us. Another good choice I think would be
    Michael Caton-Jones. He also knows action/suspense.-{
