I don't know about Blofeld being in Spectre or not but what I think is that Andrew Scott will turn out to be the real villain OR simply the political nemesis to M.
Because why cast Andrew Scott otherwise? He is destined to be a major villain or a scumbag who may want to destroy M.
I figure Andrew Scott will end up as a bad guy, but like I've said time and time again, why hire an Oscar-winning, critically hailed actor like Christoph Waltz, just to give the archnemesis role to a lesser known actor?
Could be as early as this week - to go with the IMAX release of The Walk (also a Sony film), and also The Martian. Guess we'll find out for sure (re: this week) tomorrow evening. I think by October 9 at the latest as that's when The Walk is released in non-IMAX cinemas.
Also an interesting coincidence - the theatrical trailer landed one day before the new Hunger Games released theirs. Well guess what, they're launching their similarly short final trailer in a week (they're having it exclusive at some Best Buy stores across the US next weekend, followed by online release on Monday the 5th)
AND a lesser actor, period.
In my opinion, Andrew Scott brought off Moriarty very well as a complete lunatic genius, but I doubt whether he can do an intelligent and sinister genius as well. Besides judging by the picture Murdock posted above, he looks too much like a newly graduated yuppie anxious to get up the promotion ladder.
I think that Bond will get the main arch-nemesis Oberhauser(?), while back home M gets Denbigh (Scott).
It'll probably be similar counter-plotting to what we saw in SF where it was Bond v Silva out in the field and M v Mallory locking political horns back home.

Runs 1:15, online release presumably by Thursday evening.
It's a brilliant movie, saw it a bit ago, and Deakins' cinematography is especially stunning. Should be great to see the final action-packed trailer in front of that.
I'm certainly going to see "Sicario". For me it sounds a bit like two other favourite films of mine: "Zero Dark Thirty" and "Traffic".
It's way more subdued but it's still very impactful.

"t’s strange, because I understand that each genre has its own specific rules, but for me, they are all movies. I’m just attracted to try to do different things, and I was very excited to make a movie that required more action. I was raised with James Bond. I love James Bond movies. I would love to do a James Bond movie one day."
I think it's debatable. We'll see when the movie opens.
But didn't they basically do that with Ralph Fiennes in SF? A great actor in a lesser role?
I just hope that the movie doesn't draw too many personal connections between characters. That is my biggest fear.
YES. Barbara Broccoli, are you listening?
I honestly think she is. I have this theory that EON hires people to spy on forums such as this one, during the production of a Bond film.
Eon (under MGW) is way too cautious for this. They just ended the McClory lawsuit; they don't need another one!
Why would they need to spy? Is it illegal for them to read comments on Bond forums?
But anyway I'm certain they don't. They'll never get anything finished if they read the debates here....there's a whole thesis here on the "waste of good scotch" line for Christ's sake!!!
Amazing director. And fellow Quebecker.
