Now, before Barbel jumps on this thread, I am not asking anyone to provide a link to where we might find it.
I do not want any details about the plot - the reason I am posting this on Off Topic. Just the thread titles can give much away, so I am avoiding that. I haven't even seen the trailer, I've avoided it.
Nor do I want to hear if anyone actually has seen it.
I just whimsically wondered... is the Truth out there? It's very odd that a film should be pulled at such short notice and surely lots of copies must have been out there.
So a simple: Yes, No, Don't Know will suffice!

I don‘t think that it‘s out there.
Usually bootlegs are done when the first copies are shown in theatres, so unless someone breaks in at EON‘s vault, it will not happen.
Dalton - the weak and weepy Bond!
Just about all we know of this new one has been part of deliberate PR strategies, the only spoilers are whats in the trailers, and some online controversies the producers seem to have deliberately stoked as part of PR.
just guessing that since security measures were already in place, that they're prepared to guard the actual film somehow until official release date
(... still, those hackers love a challenge, so it may yet happen)
Ah, how well you know me...
You're right that they've done a good job to keep it under wraps, too.
But this movie was pulled a fairly short time before it's release date last month. Got pulled when, September? Surely copies were out there by then? What about the posters? Normally there's a whole load of posters out there months before the film goes out. Admittedly in the Craig era they were never any good but still.
We can't event talk about the new James Bond film anymore. It's the old James Bond film.
I'm not even sure Billie Eilsih's song will be eligible for an Oscar if the film hasn't gone out yet and by 2022 it will be really old news.
Part of me thinks someone else should have another crack at the song! Or that that the entire film should be buried for a decade and then released as a kind of time capsule. Like that cream cake you were gonna have and then decided you could do without it.

Yes, I do too. I'm glad this rule doesn't extend to verbal communication about illegal copies of the movie possibly disseminated via electronic media.

It doesn't extend to discussing the theoretical possibility of such items. It definitely extends to verbal communication about providing them.
Yes, absolutely agree on this!
-Mr Arlington Beech
I am simply interested in if anyone has read the script or seen the film - seems to me everyone could get to read CR while it was shooting (the script, not the novel!) and China leaked a bit on Spectre. I don't know of any leaks, and aside from the theme song, I don't even know of any advertising posters.
This lockdown is admirable. But it's also extraordinary.

I've been avoiding those threads since March and hopefully by november 2120 or whenever the film gets released will have forgotten what spoilers I did read.
-Mr Arlington Beech
Fair enough!

...on the other hand, another 10 damn months?
If the cinemas could get their act together they might arrange open air screenings of the big blockbusters, with some social distancing. Just to clear the decks and create an event.
Me, I grew up with the Moore Bonds and these were always summer based, until they began to clash with the Hollywood blockbusters, then they got shoved to November.

That wont help me because I don't drive, and don't want to spend two hours in another persons enclosed automobile anymore than enter their dwelling. But maybe if I had a friend with a convertible?
they really oughta just go straight to streaming at this point, make some money back. They can have event-style theatrical showings later on once we're all vaccinated. People will go even if they've already seen the movie, just like the theatres have had success showing classic films on the big screen and and people would always pay to see them as they're meant to be seen despite already having the same film on dvd.
How much money do they make back on streaming?
I'd still hold out for an August release. Maybe they could have 'vaccination' screenings for the elderly earlier on - wow, that sounds glamorous, doesn't it? But in a way that does sound a lovely idea and a way of gradually easing the release of the film.
I suppose you'd then get rabid Bond fans 'abducting' the elderly so they can get in to see the film!

Prof. Whitty (Chief Medical Officer for England) mentioned for the first time yesterday that certain restrictions may have to be re-introduced over winter 21/22. He didn't elaborate but I'm guessing a return to face coverings indoors? Tiers 1 and 2 perhaps? Not even taking into consideration any further new strain of the virus.
With the roll out of the vaccine (first jab) only providing 50% protection and a large proportion of the population not due to their first jab until much, much later in the year, how feasible will crammed cinemas and red carpet events realistically be in November..?

I'm not sure how well the box office numbers were for Wonder Woman 84. Not sure what the streaming numbers were for WW 84. If a compromise could be made for movies, maybe this could be a way certain franchise or big budget movies could be released for the time being.
Of course I'm at the point if they released it on Blu-Ray, I'd buy it without seeing it on the big screen.
Indeed shame as it would of all been done and dusted & they would have enough spare time on their hands to write the next script and cast DCs successor
