Scully, It's Me - Bond. James Bond.

So the much anticipated 10th Season of The X-Files came and went (it was only six episodes).  And just a few months ago the latest James Bond adventure SPECTRE was out in theaters.

If you still need an X-Fix - shaken not stirred - what if David Duchovny played James Bond?  This was posed to me by friend of the blog David O.  Here is my answer.

James Bond Returns in First Full Trailer for SPECTRE

"James Bond Will Return."

That sentence at the end of every James Bond film is always a welcome sight.

Now, James Bond is back in SPECTRE, opening November 6, 2015. Daniel Craig once again slides into 007's tailored suits and drives the newest Aston Martin, the DB10.

Familiar faces returning include Ralph Fiennes as M, Naomie Harris as Moneypenny, and Ben Whishaw as Q. They join newcomers to the franchise Dave Bautista as Mr Hinx, Monica Belluci as the beautiful Lucia, and the always incredible Christoph Waltz as Franz Oberhauser, the villain of the piece (rumored to be Blofeld - we'll have to wait and see). Sam Mendes who directed the previous Bond film, Skyfall, returns to call the shots.

Here's the first full trailer.

James Bond Will Return...

...in SPECTRE, which was announced today.  (See article on Deadline.com)

Yes, it seems that the Daniel Craig-helmed super-spy series is getting back to its roots in a major way by bringing back the fictional terrorist organization SPECTRE (SPecial Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion).

And where SPECTRE goes can Ernst Stavo Blofeld, he of the bald pate and super-fluffy white Persian cat, be far behind?  Even though his character is listed as Oberhauser, acclaimed actor Christoph Waltz is believed to be the new Blofeld in the film.  (If that is the case, I hope it comes across better than the silliness of Benedict Cumberbatch as "John Harrison" who every one KNEW was Khan in Star Trek Into Darkness, despite all the denials of the filmmakers.)

The new film appears to be more in the mold of a traditional Bond film: for the first time in a Craig-Bond movie, we will have Q (Ben Whishaw), Miss Moneypenny (Naomie Harris), M (Ralph Fiennes), a new Aston Martin (yea!), Dave Bautista as a classic Bond uber-assassin named Mr. Hinx and James Bond facing off against SPECTRE.  Could a giant hollowed-out volcano base with jump-suited henchmen be far behind?
