    I think it would be pretty complicated to license more than one actor / movie into this game. Licensing for this could be a tangled, expensive, and time consuming web.

    I have an old Lp “the best of bond” with every theme song up to octopussy. The album jacket has a ton of photos of Bind girls and stuntmen shots from the flicks and zero actual clear photos of bond actors. The hand drawn bond is a generic Connery type. I’m sure there a reason for that. And the album is from 1984, a far less litigious time.

    Anything is possible I’m just not sure it’s feasible. You’d be dealing with numerous estates / actors, not to mention the music, every different film etc. sounds like a nightmare when there are hundreds of much “easier” licenses to pull off unless we could settle for a “one movie” game like goldeneye.

    I’m not sure pinside could handle the other option, a Jurassic park-style generic bond pin. It would be a dark night for stern.

    Quoted from Mravic:

    I saw this in a Las Vegas casino amongst many other digital slot machines that obviously share intellectual property with modern pinball machines (Wonka, JP, etc.). I think there is at least a chance this is featuring media created by/with a pinball manufacturer.
    Just my theory.

    I don’t see any of the actors there, does the slot feature actual actors’ faces?

    It does go without saying I think that the slots also probably have a much bigger budget for IP than we do. They are printing money !!!

    Quoted from Rockytop:

    Slightly off topic, but after Craig is done, I would like to see the franchise go back to the 50's, where Ian Fleming novels originally took place. (Casino Royale was published in 1953)
    I have read most of the novels, and some like Moonraker are really great and nothing at all like the movie.
    They need a hard reset after Craig. His movies told one story and it would be hard to replace him I think like they have in the past. They could even set the movie in WWII and tell the beginning of Bond's espionage career.

    I'm tired of all this over serious bullshit. The last Bond movie was fucking awful.

    Time to reset - again. This time go back to the goofy Moore years and have a few laughs. Why the hell not?

    Craig isn't even the first "serious reboot." Dalton did it 30 years ago.

    Variety is the spice of life. The last Bond movie was no fucking fun at all.

    As an aside, I hope the next Bond is black, preferably gay. Variety baby!

    I'm not ready for him to be a woman though. I heard rumors in the early 90s they were thinking of making Sharon Stone Bond, or having Tarantino direct and make it a 60s period piece. Interesting ideas!

    In the end they went with Remmington's Steele's warmed over Connery act. Was a good move for the time and Goldeneye was a fun movie. The rest of his sucked.

    Quoted from Rockytop:

    I've heard rumors Stern has the license...don't know if that's true.
    After getting my GnR, I hope JJP does it.
    Has anyone heard anything lately?

    18 minutes ago I heard a rumor Stern has the license. From you.

    That's about it!
