Tomorrow Never Dies is better than Goldeneye

I might not claim it's better than Goldeneye, but it's still a pretty damn good movie all the same. Strictly IMO, of course, YMMV, [Insert Some Other Acronym].

I wouldn't disagree with that, and I'd suggest LTK and TND are in a different bracket to The Man With the Golden Gun and Quantum of Solace as well, but I don't think there's a cast iron argument to be made that either is better than the film that preceded them (though I'm sure someone will make an argument.)

We all have expectations about what Amazon will put out there, but for me at least if they gave us a Tomorrow Never Dies I wouldn't be super unhappy.

Some rumours, rather than solid news here. Interestingly, if true, it seems that the priority is to get a script and director, then think about casting the actor to fill the tux and carry the PPK.
