After Skyfall: 00-7 Places James Bond Should Go Next

4. Abu Dhabi

When I think of Dubai and James Bond I automatically think €œWhy hasn€™t James Bond been filmed here yet?!€ This seems like the perfect place for both Bond and villain. With the huge wealth and dominance of oil industries in Dubai, it would be extremely ideal for the villain to be cast as an evil mastermind plotting to take all the oil and use it to blackmail the world into letting he/she rule. The modern infrastructure in Dubai, home to the world€™s largest skyscraper and other techno-modern buildings, seems like the perfect location for a Bond film. With all this already being a genuine factor of Dubai the film wouldn€™t have to seem unrealistic and out of touch, like some previous Bond films have felt. The best films are always the films that are set around the benefits of a certain environment, not the films that have their environment forged - sometimes poorly - to fit around the plot. Just like shooting in Monaco in Casino Royale, shooting in Dubai would allow the directors to surround Bond with luxury; the tux, the Aston Martin - and for him not to seem at all out of place within the surrounding environment.
