LTK's does feel almost like a whole act of the movie. Starts with Sanchez's plane and doesn't end until he's been captured by the DEA and Bond and Felix have parachuted into the wedding.

The whole movie runs 2:43, so I guess proportionally it's not that bad.
The other thing with NTTD's pre title sequence is that it's 7 minutes before we even see Bond!
I mean I like NTTD more than many people do, it's my third favourite Craig film, but damn it's bloated as hell and one of many things I hope Villeneuve and Knight do is return to a leaner kind of film, certainly something that's sub 135 minutes.

With NTTD, do you not feel like the PTS should have just been the flashback, with Madeleine surfacing being the transition point out of the credits into the main body?
Maybe, though it's been a while since we had a PTS with no Bond. TMWTGG? and even then we technically saw Rog, just like in FRWL we technically saw Sean. I guess LALD is the only one with zero Bond.
Also Bond putting Madeline on the train is the perfect transition point for the credits, especially given there's then a time jump.
Might have worked better to start with Madeline surfacing, then show the flashback later? Even that doesn't quite work.
I like longer films but when credits are withheld so long it's distracting. I'll wager that many of us gave up hope on their even appearing in NTTD and MisImpDedRek1 before they eventually did. Had I been in charge-----don't run, I'm not----early film titles would be mandatory across the board with no exceptions. And the next four Bond girls would be Fairuza Balk, Christina Ricci, Alicia Witt and Helena Bonham Carter....and maybe in the exact same movie.
If Tim Burton directed a Bond movie.
Not to mention The Departed...
No massive surprise really (self employed person says they would accept job if offered!) but David Arnold would be up for doing another Bond soundtrack https://www.irishnews.com/entertain...-visiting-belfast-FF4DWJKXOVHA7DLBSKFDNAA4NE/
Better he than the man who directed Keaton's BIRDMAN. He'd dictate nonstop drums minus anything else.
After the last one I'm not really sure it will BE Dune Messiah.
what if in the amazon verison of james bond it was a program in the mi7 and the number 007 was the number of james bonds in the james bond program
Best score of the series.
I see Amazon have been amending lots of Bond images online to make them as blandly generic as possible! (And removing his gun from several!)
