My understanding is they brought in Phoebe Waller-Bridge as a writer for some of the Craig Bond films to address the sexism and make them more "modern" in this regard. At the same time, the older Bond films are one of my guilty pleasures because of that brutal sexism. You know they can't make that kind of film anymore, so that makes them more enjoyable...hahaha!

Yeah. I struggled with why they felt the need to make this movie. If anything, just continue with another sequel if they felt they needed to make another movie, but to try to reboot on what was a classic film was a huge mistake.

I think they've squeezed everything they can out of this. It's always tempting to keep milking successful franchises, and hard to stop at a trilogy. But if they writing is going to continue to slip, they need to stop.

As long as the writing is tight, I think they'll do fine with a Neagley spin-off. She's very much like Reacher in attitude/demeanor. I love the dialogue in "Reacher." If they can maintain that and keep the cast around her strong, it'll be great. Also, the series won't be bound by any of the books, so there's even GREATER potential.
