QUENTIN TARANTINO SHOOTS DOWN SKYFALL

Back in 2003, Director and Writer Quentin Tarantino expressed his opinion on the next Bond film and hoped to be approached by Producers Michael Wilson and Barbara Broccoli to allow him to adapt "Casino Royale" as a 1950's drama Bond film starring Pierce Brosnan. However, when the producers refused, he tried to make the film on his own, with no success. "Casino Royale" emerged as the 21st James Bond film with Martin Campbell and Daniel Craig, and Tarantino has remained unfaithful to the Bond series ever since.

Just recently whilst promoting his latest film "Django Unchained", he was quizzed about the violence which is present in films of this era. Tarantino, again, brought up the subject of James Bond.

"To me, it felt more like an action movie than a Bond movie, I don’t think that [Skyfall] is the one you should be rooting for [for an award]."
