It’s funny you mention Thunderball (McClory v Fleming). If they cannot get right two times, they should stop. There was a plan to make one in 2000, called “Warhead 2000 AD”.
I think Warhead might have been good with Dalton, although he’s now too old (so is Brosnan), and McClory’s dead, no?
It was the only Bond story McClory had the rights to, so it had to be that way.
