There is this, too. For the talk about spoilers, leaks etc not being a big deal for Bond in comparison with other franchises, there was a huge stink after the Spectre leaks which kind of proves that any plot spoilers ahead of time are a big no-no for both the audience and (mostly) the film itself.
I'd be willing to bet that most large studio films will adopt this sort of policy in the future. Better to be safe than sorry, now that we're firmly in the realm of spoiler culture.
A lot of TV shows that aren't as big as Game Of Thrones are very secretive about scripts, too. Vikings, for example.
What is it?
What he say?
I bet this is why https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-7012949/BAZ-BAMIGBOYE-Bond-25-script-endlessly-written.html
@PanchitoPistoles You can't base a fanbase size on fan reddit alone alot of people are die hard Bond fans just because your a casual fan or what have you doesn't mean we are all like you not trying get personal or anything.
I would normally dismiss this kind of story, but it’s Baz. This is a bit concerning.
Waller-Bridge is too talented of a writer and Fukanaga is too talented of a director. They’re not going to turn in anything less than stellar. Almost all the Bond movies have had to work on the scripts as they went along. There’s no point worrying about this.
I've got the feeling ever since Craig became Bond that the press really don't like him. He doesn't play their game and they had to begrudgingly go back on all their muck raking about him being wrong for the part, when the critics raved about his performance in CR.
Yes I am one of the optimistic ones probably too for some tastes but I feel this film is going in the right direction.
Look people soiled themselves over MI 6 and that script was written while the film was being made, this thing seems to happen more and more these days.
Unfortunately it allows the doom merchants and sceptics to say I told you so.
I'm sorry Baz is not God to me and from the flavour of his article he's not getting the access he'd like, in fact I think the press might well have been locked out of this because they have tendency to spoil things, don't they?
We live in a society that seems to like this, some here for instance would happily walk into the cinema next April practically knowing everything they are going to see.
Well that is their prerogative, although I'm old-fashioned and would like to enter the cinema with something to surprise me and would rather the like of the Daily Mail's so called scoopmeister some of you rest on every word of, to not give everything away.
Baz definitely isn't getting the stories he'd like so his alternative to slag the film off, wise move to burn your bridges Baz.
Garbage, I have lost faith in baz from now
My thoughts exactly
Baz says it's a troubled production? What's new. Craig couldn't drive a manual car, had to wear a life jacket at press intro, he didn't like playing Bond, he'd rather slit his wrists than play Bond again, blah blah blah.
In my opinion Bond 25 has had a slow, frustrating build up (4-5 years since Spectre and the Boyle saga has not being pleasant to watch for sure) but you know what Mr and Mrs Tabloid, there are a lot of talented people involved in a Bond film. They know what they are doing. Any audience member that cares about Bond, casual or hardcore, will judge the movie on one thing ultimately and that is what they see at the cinema next April.
it's getting tiresome.

Yes 100% in agreement
And I know from some past experience, Baz has a hugely inflated ego. Almost all productions have re-writes of various degrees through out production, it is completely standard.
I am not saying rewrite couldn't be bad but giving judgement like that before watching the final product is insane.
Partly because of McQuarrie and MI franchise's critical goodwill, and it wasn't really addressed until after production ended...plus this is Bond.
In any case, it's certainly far better in Fukunaga and Waller Bridge's hands than P&W and Butterworth. Question is whether Fukunaga can pull it all together like McQuarrie did, I'm sure they're looking at what he did with those films as an example of a situation like this turning right.
Plus any excuse to have a dig at Craig seems to be the latest fad.
