    By the way, I woke up here in USA at 5 AM before class at the university to catch this announcement live!
    Same here, 6AM.

    It isn't a Fleming plot.

    A great tweet by the Ian Fleming twitter account.

    Like a kid meeting Santa, my wife asked what was going on ?
    When I told her , I got the rolling eyes bit :)) non fans just can't
    Understand. :))

    I noticed, that during the wrap-up, the gentleman never mentioned Rome as a filming location. Anyone else catch that?

    What is the shortered abbreviated term going to be on the forums? It can't be SC, that would be Sean Connery.

    Can we get a quick key for an Octopus? :p

    The shortest word title ever, with no compounds! S will become the abbreviation.
  • Virgil37Virgil37 Posts: 1,212MI6 Agent
    It should be SP, right?
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 38,077Chief of Staff
    Yeah, SP sounds right.

    Seconded by Virgil37, anyone else?

    Mrs Pred just accused me of squeaking like a little girl.

    Guilty as charged.

    ps I wonder if the whole Silva computer expert/cryptanalyst spiel might reveal a cypher that from QUANTUM we get SPECTRE. Perhaps a little too obvious, but would be an interesting reveal ...

    Yes SP sounds good -{

    Quantum becoming Spectre would help tie up some loose ends. :D

    I reckon it will be split between SP and S

    I'd prefer S for the simple reason that I have seen the organisation abbreviated as "S" here and on other Bond sites from time to time.
  • jorgem1jorgem1 Posts: 136MI6 Agent
    Time to think about Bond 25, which would be released around 2017 or 2018.
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    Although it's a pity they didn't use kill or die in the title ! :p :))

    I've been typing SPECTRE since it is an abbreviation.

    EON always tend towards upper case for their titles ...

    The pedant in me wants it to be titled Sp.E.C.T.R.E.

    I love it! got it from the first reveal. My flatmate was more amused with my excitement than the live stream. Its 10pm here in Australia, timezones worked well for us for once :D .

    Having now the rights back from McClory, I hope it will be pure Fleming (as opposed to pure Austin Powers ;) )

    Oberhauser was Bond's ski instructor and father figure after his parents died. Waltz
    Is playing his son. So it does at least have a Fleming connection. :D
    ( The story is Octopussy, if anyone wants to quickly read it )

    Quantum is unfinished business, would like some conclusion at least. It would be interesting if it turns out they are connected in some way with SPECTRE.

    More then likely. Quantum will mould into SPECTRE

    Might be a coincidence that Oberhauser appears in OP and the SPECTRE ring is an Octopus?
