    Simple solution: Go straight to blu-ray release (or as TP says streaming) and save the Donkey's 56 year old ass the discomfort of a 3 hour plus sit in a movie theater's seat! :#

    I used to use that as a measure of a
    Good film. Sore arse Bad movie. If
    I didn't notice, then it was a Good
    Movie.

    You doubt that one of the most historied studios and production companies included a clause in the contracts requiring cast and crew to market the film at the time of the release. Huh. 8-)

    Exactly :))

    Guys we just have to deal with it. It's not changing and no amount of complaining will change this.

    Enjoy your summer and see you in November.

    Hey guys thanks for the replies.

    I’m just sharing my thoughts and opinions.

    On the promo: Under Water was released this month by Fox. It wrapped filming in 2018 and was shelved. It was released to limited publicity for the reasons above.

    On the virus: The information is from a virologist interviewed in the New York Times last week.

    Just sharing my opinion as I say - I thought that’s what this was for.

    We all know the history of Bond. It’s not like the studio have never made errors.

    Have we considered that aside from the massive box office hit, that another contributing factor might be the actual plot of the movie? Safin looking to spread some sort of plague or just general reference to bioweaponry would go over like a lead balloon with a lot of people at this point, rightly or wrongly.

    It's probably money tbh. :))

    Here is Professor Chris Whitty CB FRCP FFPH FMedSci, chief medical officer for England and Wales, Chief Medical Adviser to the UK Government, Chief Scientific Adviser at the Department of Health & Social Care and head of the National Institute for Health Research suggesting what I said.

    I'm not sure he's a supremo, though.

    I felt this was somewhat interesting in a Total Film feature on the work of NTTD set designer Mark Tildesley, "We referenced a lot of Tadao Ando, the Japanese architect and artist. It’s very much a concrete world, prefabbed in the ’50s and ’60s by the Russians, then taken over by the Safins. It looks a bit like that concrete factory in Barcelona. Raw, brutalist, extraordinary and of the moment."

    Note that it is not 'taken over by Safin' but 'by the Safins'. Plural. Familial.

    That really is interesting. What could it mean?
    I looked up the architect Tadao Ando. It's easy to see resemblances to Safins's lair:

    I think I even posted photos of his work in the Locations thread long ago because some of it reminded me of Ken Adam and Bond:

    Crime family? Family of oligarchs? Leaning to one of these given the Russian connexion.

    Perhaps Madeliene is/was part of the family or indebted to Safin/the family, from when she was a child.

    I hope to high heaven that when he says 'the Safins' he is not referring to them as multiple clones. :)) -{

    Lashana Lynch has an interview in Vogue that has just gone online, although it's dated 6 March (the magazine's edition date).
    https://www.vogue.co.uk/arts-and-lifestyle/article/lashana-lynch-james-bond-interview?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1583516179

    There's not much new in it, but there is this interesting sentence;
    "Lynch took her mum to watch Craig film his “emotional” final scene as Bond."

    I thought the last scenes DC filmed as Bond were the Cuban gunfight filmed at Pinewood? What would be 'emotional' about that?

    Did they film something else at Pinewood about that time? When it says DC's 'final scene as Bond', is that not in filming chronology, but character/story chronology???
  • JTMJTM Posts: 3,027MI6 Agent
    From the quote it sounds like she’s referring to the last scene of the film featuring Bond, not the last scene Craig shot during filming.

    I think it looks like Black Widow is living in a caravan in Norway in the begining of her film, not too different from what's in the PTS in NTTD. It's a caravan in BW, It's a cabin in NTTD. It's Madeleine, not Bond who's in the cabin. I know. The caravan may not be in Norway. I'm pretty sure the first shot is in Norway, maybe the second one with the cabin in the pine forrest isn't. We'll see.

    Black Widow looks like its gonna be good, and way overdue. and also delayed by coronavirus.
    She also seems to be investigating some weird evil science experiments on human subjects, but behind the iron curtain. Maybe while she's searching her villains evil headquarters full of forbidden experiments, she'll open a door and see CraigBond and Rami Malek and all those flourescent tubes in the water, and then turn to the camera and say "oops! wrong film!" and carry on as if nothing odd had just happened.

    what do you think about the looks of Black Widow 24?
    I know you normally don't like these comic book movies, but are you going to see this one?

    I read it the opposite. She is in those Cuba scenes, so she would have a reason to be there. And it was emotional because it was the end for Craig after all these years, not because it’s his last scene in the movie. My guess is his last scene as Bind in the movie was probably filmed when he was injured way back in the summer.
