It's the Marina Sands Singapore Hotel. Amazing, eh? I'd like to see more of this kind of stuff.

    Amazing is right, Nap. I had to find out more about it and the stats are quite staggering.

    Some great visuals to be had. Definite possibilities regarding stunts. Possibly a villain's lair? A 21st century version of the Whyte House. One way or another an ideal location for a Bond film.

    Would be great to see Bond toss a villain off the top - skyfall indeed!

    I wasn't sure if it was either, but sure enough a Google search shows it is real and popular!

    I wish they had chosen its pool for SkyFall instead:

    I wouldn't want to watch Bond Toss anyone off. :))

    I hijack this topic for a while to suggest some transport for the villan:

    The sailing yacht Mathese Falcon

    The yacht A

    All three yachts are very impressive. Yacht A is not the prettiest but it seems the most appropriate transport for the Bond villain. It looks more like a submarine, no doubt deliberately designed in that fashion.

    TWO yachts, More than :)
    I think yacht a looks like a naval vessel from a hundred years back, perhaps somthing that could turn up in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

    I also read about a private luxery airplane. It was an jumbojet with countermeasures against missiles, a pool and a lounge where a large circlular TV screen on the floor showed wahtever was under the plane during flight. Perfect for a Bond villan!

    Indeed, a bit of brain fade on my part. ;%
