Then, Fiennes said he didn't want to be part of this movie, the producers went nuts Mendes didn't check Fiennes agreed beforehand, so they called Purvis & Wade to save the day and now everything but the building survives.
But there's room for change to go back to "Craig's last", for other reasons...
So when the story goes "first they decided it was Craig's last, then later they decided again because he was injured", well it's far more coherent with what we know that some think.
Flashback scenes probably or photos for that album at the hotel?
Not necessarily, I worked on the set of the upcoming Terminator movie. Although set in San Francisco, specifically The Golden Gate Bridge, it was filmed on a massive, blue-screen lined, set constructed in Eastern New Orleans. A replica of the roadway was build and heavy traffic was involved. For the entire shoot water trucks wet down the street surface. I was told this was for two reason, to keep dust down and because of the way asphalt photographs. I've seen the final shots in trailers and the it looks dry; there is no rain in the sequence
If you go to the 5:00 mark you can see some of the footage as it was being filmed. Every time the surface had been wet down. At the 5:30 mark you can see some of the water.

@talos7 Yes, but in the script from October there is rain and it has been confirmed by a friend of mine at Pinewood that when they filmed the Westminster Bridge scenes they used sprinkles to simulate rain. I wrote on this forum a couple of days ago that they are filming wide shots on the river Thames and then the close up shots at Pinewood. This again says that it is easier to do the rain at Pinewood.
Any departure of Craig would be made after release and tried to made a positive spin.
I don't see Craig leaving ...just the opposite. Sony or whatever the next partner is wants that bankable star.
@talos7 I think there was way more water at the Bond set. They used water all around London for the past month they have been filming the finale on location in London. You can't even make out the water in this B-roll footage I think the water isn't even on the real set.
Then select "edit"
Simplest way to fix the post in question is to use the "quote" function and put everything I said in quotes. No need to attach my name, I don't think, as its obvious who said it. My post is right above.
Hotel L'Americain!;-D
Thanks for the picture @JWPepper
That's a great shot. Very revealing. The guy in the green shirt needs a bigger hand.
@antovolk Let's hope
Good find. Hopefully we get a sweet surprise.
i believe this pertained to Fiennes' M, Mallory, who was supposed to be revealed as a mole/traitor in this film.. but Fiennes is tired of playing the baddie role all the time, so they rewrote the script to include a new character who ends up being the mole/traitor..
And so Scott plays Mr Patch Afterthought, and has the difficult task not to be boring in this movie...
@SkyfallCraig What is that spark of light/fire in the first picture then.
well, thats one way of looking at it lol.. but yes.
Could be start of a building explosion reflected in the water maybe?
That sounds like it writes itself. Loyal-to-old-M Tanner figures out what is up but not who is responsible and gets offed by M in a rehash of the Spacey death by Cromwell in LA CONFIDENTIAL, but leaves enough info that Bond figures out newM is responsible. And LA CONFIDENTIAL is now old enough to be something Logan would pinch from, as he usually goes back 20 years or so (like the EXCALIBUR ending awkwardly employed at the end of STAR TREK NEMESIS.)
None of this seems very Bond-esque to me, I'm still sticking with the idea that most 21st century Bond is really 'CALLAN goes globetrotting' as this joyless stick-in-the-mud does not ever evince more than a single note at a time of Fleming's Bond (or Young's) for me.
Hard for me to write it down for public consumption, but going by s1ep1 of TRUE DETECTIVE being directed by Justin Lin, am now more interested in the next installment of the horrid Abramization of STAR TREK than another Bond done in this fashion. I'm actually past the quarter-century mark since the last time I loved a new Bond movie and my favorite is now 52 years old, nearly my age. I'm just gonna keep my fingers crossed that the TINKER TAILOR folks can get together a followup, this Bourne-century is just not cutting it for me.
