Często w podcastach z Marcin Tadera podkreślamy, że wierna ekranizacja powieści „Moonraker” to byłoby coś naprawdę niezwykłego. MI6-HQ.com przepięknie ubrało ten pomysł w słowa i zachęca twórców do obrania właśnie takiego kierunku. Villeneuve pasuje mi bardzo do tej historii, a Amazon wykazałby się nie lada wyczuciem stawiając na pojedynek Bonda z multimilionerem i twórcą rakietowego systemu obronnego.
Poniżej fragment tekstu. Link do całości w komentarzu. Koniecznie przeczytajcie, a najlepiej sięgnijcie również po powieść Fleminga od Skarpa Warszawska. Strzelam, że po lekturze będziecie mieli podobne odczucia.
„It is one of the cruelest tasks in cinema: to be the next James Bond. The Walther PPK fits every hand differently. The tuxedo wears the man as much as he wears it. And the ghosts of Bond’s past linger in every line of dialogue, every raised eyebrow, every sip of something shaken and not stirred.
But there comes a moment when the smoke clears, the tuxedo is pressed, and the door is opened. A new man must walk through it.
And what better entry for a new Bond than ‚Moonraker’?
The Bond films have spent the better part of the last two decades trapped between extremes – nostalgia and novelty, high-gloss action and emotional disrepair. The Craig era gave us bruised vulnerability and operatic spectacle. Before him, Brosnan gave us quips, satellites, and the digital age in its tuxedoed infancy.
What the franchise needs now is a reset. Not a reinvention, but a restoration.
(…)
In Moonraker, there is no world to save – only a country. No time for wit, only for nerve. It is the clean slate the series needs. It is Bond before Bond became mythology.
Reboot the franchise here, and you do not just introduce a new actor. You reintroduce the character. The real one. The one Ian Fleming wrote in typewriter ink, not pixels. The one who came in from the cold with a .25 Beretta and a stiff upper lip.
Let him walk again.
And let him walk into Moonraker.”
