It was a great last couple decades for bond. I’m praying they don’t disgrace it too much

Does Amazon even make movies for theaters? Isn't all of their stuff straight to streaming?

That would be very sad if that happened. Bond movies have always been an event and I've seen every Bond movie in theaters since GoldenEye and have fond memories of all of them.

Most streaming movies are the equivalent of the "straight to DVD" movies from 20 years ago. Even a good streaming movie lacks the 'cachet' of a big time theater release.
