David Slade, Abel Ferrarra, Quentin Tarantino, Abel Ferrarra, or Curtis Hanson would be ideal directors for this new, coarse Bond series. Also, James Spader or Ben Kingsley would be great villains/rival agents. Hell, if you ask me, a double agent secretly conveying information from Quantum to MI6 and from MI6 to Quantum (ala The Departed, but only one character) would be an excellent idea... but it'd have to be a woman 'cause guys aren't adept at multi-tasking
Stephen, if you were really a fan of Chuck Palahniuk, you would know that these books are (along with Fight Club) the epitome of his brilliance. He is stamped thoroughly on each page. Sure, they might not be your "cup of tea", but Palahniuk is famous for his disturbed sense of humor. If you didn't like these stories, then you don't really like Chuck Palahniuk... you just enjoy some of his works. Hence, you are not a real fan.
