My two favorite movie franchises are starting to pick up steam, James Bond and Godzilla. I can't wait to see what is in store for these new takes on a couple classic cinema characters!

Just imagine a James Bond/Godzilla team up. It would be so GREAT!!!

They should just do what they did with Casino Royale and adapt one of the Fleming stories that hasn't been done yet and update it for today. If not that, them do Carte Blanche.

I don't mind that they made Felix Leiter black but they should leave Moneypenny alone.

They also need to introduce SOME gadgets, similar to the type and amount that were used in the Connery films. As long as they don't get carried away with them like they did starting with the Moore films, it'll work.

They just need to hurry up and get started with the new movie.

I'm stoked! Love Bond. Again,I'd like to see Spectre poke up it's diabolical head once more, having links with global terrorism, to give the film a contemporary relevance.And yeah, @jackbauer, bring back the gadgets!

The 2 things Bond always had, his watch/gadgets and sweet #2 henchman. That's the only thing the movies now lack. I can do without the gadgets (even if I'd like to see one or two), but the go-to henchman that always poses a serious threat to Bond, more so than the main villian, has always appealed to me. Jaws and Oddjob in the old films, and the russian Dampher in Tomorrow Never Dies, and what's his face from Fast and the Furious who has diamonds in the side of his face in Die Another Day.

Bring back the henchmen! :P
