    Scripts change  with different drafts. 

    Really? I thought they just wrote "first draft" and "second draft" on the cover and nothing changed! who knew! :D

    No, that's politicians you're thinking about there.

    No, I think you can rule that theory out.

    I doubt they would have done that.

    No I think Virgil37, is on to something. Just as he didn't know, different
    Scriptwriters would change things. Just look at eon they must be the
    Basis for spectre, even the letters of eon appear in spectre, except for
    O and N. :D The conspiracy around the cursed film .... Continues ! :))

    I did know about drafts (I should know!), I just meant that they could be fabricating emails referencing imaginary drafts with plots and characters that they never intented to use, thus keeping the real work in the dark. Feed the sharks a dead fish and they might let you swim for a while. It's really far fetched though.

    You forgot that the colour of the paper often changes too! :)

    Apparently during the press conference Mr Craig said that the title was unknown till the announcement (well, kind of - we had a rumour going on here that it will be called 'Spectre') because they were sending out fake movie names to keep the press off scent. So why not fake all this CNN headlines stuff, especially that they probably know that the movie might be compromised any minute because of the hack and that would most certainly affect the incomings.

    Over the years I've proven I know very little about the
    other Bond films. So why should I learn stuff about
    this one ! :))

    It's a silly idea, tbh....it's just something they wouldn't do...it's akin to saying they have put the real emails out there because then people won't believe them :s

    I do not know if this will have any affect on the production of SPECTRE? Sony Pictures has cancelled/suspended shoots because the hacking problems have apparently left it unable to process payments.

    Show how ahead of its time DAD was, it's not a bad Bond film, rather
    It was a documentary about the powers on N.Korea, on striking against
    The west. :))

    I'm ignoring all these leaks and " down beat" stories. :D
    For Me, spectre is proceeding as planned, and everything is well
    Leading to a brilliant new Bond film next year. {[]

    I like the optimism. I know that if I read spoilers, complaints, etc, that I will be looking for those flaws in the movie when it is released. Might as well stay positive.

    I'm guessing if we'd seen the emails sent by executives to producers
    and back and fourth about SF or TDK, possible any modern movie. They'd
    All be full of script ideas / changes, complaints over budgets etc. :))
    I think sometimes we're better off not knowing ! :))

    I completely agree. The more Producer credits a film has and / or tie ins, the more diplomacy is involved to get it made. I love the fact Ms Brocolli and Mr Wilson stand by the old adage of their Fathers - the money goes on the screen for the audience to see.

    The real trouble starts when the senior cast have a say in the writing / production, irrespective of their good intentions. Superman iV and Star Trek Nemesis spring to mind.

    I think MGM is at least as responsible for financing as Sony, if not more so. Getting the checks written shouldn't be a problem.
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    I think it's a great sign of the confidence in Bond that the producers
    Have upped the budget, and seem to want to give us an epic movie. {[]

    Same problem with me but I managed to find the interview on You Tube. Daniel Craig does talk about sending false title names out but I am sure he was not being serious.

    I can't for the life of me understand why anyone
    would want to know the full screenplay for SP ?
    Spoiling the whole movie for yourself. :#
