Why can't we have a Hollywood premiere of Skyfall?

  Because Bond is BRITISH and the films hould always have the premier in the best city in the world.
  LONDON looked FAB in SKYFALL.
  So proud to call this city my home!

  A Hollywood US Premiere seems like a very good idea and would generate a great deal of publicity. A Hollywood World Premiere is less likely but cannot be ruled out completely, considering that A View To A Kill had it's World Premiere in San Francisco.

  I think what may be the point here is should there be a US premiere in addition to the official British premier. Many films have multiple red carpet premiers when they open in different countries. Being that it's the 50th Anniversary film and the London/Scotland locations it is appropriate IMO to have one official premier in London.
  
  I did do a quick check to see if there was a Hollywood Premier and there is not. However, there is a special screening being held on November 1st at the Ziegfield theater in New York to raise money for a charitable foundation and Daniel Craig will be in attendance.

  I am not against a US premiere for any Bond movie and I hope it comes about for the next movie. That said Bond is British and the main premiere should always be in London.
