    The hilarity of this thread is that we pick up specks of dust and immediately formulate entire plots, narrative structuring (including where the OT sequence will be positioned) and even titles based on those. I'm not saying that none of these speculative remarks will turn out correct, but these last dozens and dozens of pages have been about speculation built on speculation that was built on the speculation that came from seeing slightly out-of-fashion jackets and reading something about genetics. :D

    Look, this is fun, and there's nothing wrong with that. I only hope that if the film turns out completely different, people won't be disappointed that it wasn't "their" story being told. That can lead to unfair assessments of the film's quality.

    We could have a Silence of the Lamb kind of plot, come to think of it. Blofeld becomes an informant so he can escape. The Malek character could be an usurper or the head of a rival group. Bond getting rid of him helps Blofeld unknowingly.

    Ah yes...

    Imagine Blofeld's escape at the end, hence the meeting with Bond, Tanner & M...

    :-?

    If this happens to be the case...then it would make sense for Craig to be back for Bond 26.

    All along in Bond 25 it would seem as though Blofeld was helping Bond catch Malek (the leader of a rival organisation) and in the mean time, he has actually been tying the ends together from inside his cell to revitalise SPECTRE once again and to commence his villainous scheming once he escapes.

    Has 'SPECTRE' being photoshopped in? If not the Thunderball vibes are coming back - Disco Volante 2020 version.

    And I thought the clone name theory figured it all out.

    Point is.

    We confirmed there's a stunt double PLAYING Young Madeleine Swann in the film..

    Everyone called me out saying theres no flashback (no proof that there isn't a flashback), so I said well maybe she's a clone then?

    Here's the timeline of events surrounding the Young Madeleine.


    1) December 2018 casting call for a young blonde girl age 12-15 years off age, double for Lea Seydoux. Must be able to swim.

    2) Set photos emerge of a young blonde girl filming on the Bond set. Aged 12-15.

    3) Prince Charles visits the set of Bond and the entire cast and crew are uploaded to IMDB.. Featuring... STUNT DOUBLE FOR YOUNG MADELEINE SWANN.


    A good friend of mine has his own youtube show called the james bond show. He actually knows the stunt double and she confirmed she is playing young maddy in the film.


    Anyone who says this is false is obviously in denial.


    It is probably the only concrete thing we have about the plot.

    Okay....so they are rebuilding the house from Norway in Swinley Forest



    Not sure how related, but a controlled explosion was also done in the forest last week



    Very interesting......the large amount of forestry that has grown would suggest that a lot of time has passed since the opening. Which would suggest that a flashback. Clearly Madeleine's childhood is essential to the plot.

    This is highly interesting, and could mean one of two things.

    The two scenes (i.e the one filmed in Norway back in March and the Atlantic Road/Scotland shoot) are directly related and happen early in the film as opposed to the climax, or that the characters return to the same place much later in the film.

    My money's on the second option because I still don't believe Bond will have acquired the V8 Vantage as early as scene 15 in the film.
    Two timelines at the same location would also explain why there are vintage and modern cars.

    If we are still dealing with Madeleine's childhood at the end of the film, I think there's a strong chance that she is a Spectre sleeper agent.

    I re-watched SPECTRE..

    That whole train scene where she talks about using a gun before at her home.

    The Young Madeleine scene being filmed in the snow at her home...

    Pretty obvious they built on that. The movie came out 4 1/2 years ago and I seriously doubt audience members will remember that line, kind of an odd choice.

    For some reason Eon seems obsessed with the dangling plot threads of QoS and SP, rather than CR and SF.

    Yeah I am just simply pointing out the obvious evidence.

    Quantum - Bond's past. VESPER

    Skyfall - M's past. SILVA.

    Spectre - Bond's past. BLOFELD

    Bond 25 - Madeleine Swann's past. MALEK?


    Kinda odd and tiring.

    Here is something super interesting. I think I posted it before. It was in the Norway papers. Basically consent forms and paperwork for filming the young girl on the lake scene.

    Well, in the film White was referring to the casualties of terrorist attacks. Basically White quitted the organization once Blofeld started to directly kill innocente people in attacks in order to pave the way to the Nine Eyes Program.

    Any chance Eva green will film some scenes for the vesper Lynd interrogation tape. Still wished oberhauser played that instead of whites death

    Originally it was all political figures people who had wronged people. He had an actual reason. Not that they deserved to die.

    Great plotline.

    My bet about the plot and it's entirely speculative: Malek was an up and coming hitman who could dud not achieve the murder of Mr White and family twenty odd years ago. It still bugs him. Years later, he wants to finish the job out of pride. He's either the head of a rival organisation or a high ranking member of Spectre. Of course if he is the latter, why did he go after White when White was still in the organisation's good books? Maybe Malek joined Spectre afterwards, maybe Blofeld set up the whole operation twenty years ago to manipulate White.

    Of course, that was the idea... in 2015. Can we now read something more in these words? :D

    Last night I had a dream that I was watching Danny Boyle's Bond 25 at the ODEON BFI IMAX in London, the cinema where I had my best movie viewing experience of my life when I watched Skyfall there back in 2012. Boyle's Bond film was a complete home run and the funniest Bond movie ever and I loved it, which is surprising considering I prefer more serious Bond films.

    I want to go back into my dream! :(( :((

    Please don't review Bond 25 by comparing it to your dream...

    ...and of course you dreamt that because that's what you wanted.
