There were two parts to the chase: 1. Bond on the phone with Moneypenny; 2. Bond off the phone with Moneypenny. Part 1 should have occurred prior to Bond realizing he's been run down by Hinx. In other words, Bond races off, gets Moneypenny on the phone, has his chat, all the while seeing headlights behind him, chasing him down. From there, now off the phone with Moneypenny, Bond plays cat and mouse in the dark streets of Rome.
One of my favorite car chase scenes is this one. @4:50, I love the peeks down the dark streets as alleys, which could have been the case in Rome, too. It adds tension.
Good post. I always thought the new DBS superlegerra suited Dan’s Bond, it’s so muscular but yea with it being modern and a tiny bit flashy, the old V8 suits Bonds character arc great.
There is no chronology. The DB5 in SF was written as the CR version by P&W - but Mendes wanted the GF version. That was carried over to SP.
I’d be interested to see where it’s shown that the Skyfall DB5 was written as the CR DB5. Anyway that isn’t communicated at all in the actual films.
EDIT: I think I misunderstood your post initially. All the same, if Mendes wanted the GF DB5 in Skyfall then it’s not a stretch to imagine that Craig’s Bond owned it the entire time and the CR DB5 was a second one.
I'm good with the idea that the Skyfall DB5 was used by MI6 during the 60s in Craig's timeline and somehow became a legacy of his parents before they died. Who were in the service themselves. Therefore he went to it in storage as a means to transport M to Scotland.
Plus his parents had the foresight to leave the machine guns loaded.

I assume that's incorrect and there's more filming? Anyone from MI6 able to confirm the Metro report is accurate or not.
I assume this was supposed to be the Matera wrap party, not the wrap party for the whole film?

It's the end of filming or the reporter got carried away and it's just the end of filming in Italy. I guess we'll find out in the next day or so when or if filming continues! I assume most location filming doesn't end with a wrap party and cake? You just film the stuff and move on to the next location without a party? I assume so.
Right. Makes sense. Typical papers getting it wrong!
I think we have our answer! The caption for this Insta talks about 007 and NTTD! I’m cool with Sting.
With Spectre we saw Craig himself film action sequences in Austria, Mexico City on the rooftops, in the Thames with Tanner, driving the Aston in Rome, at Oberhausers base in Morocco, and the Westminster bridge.
We’ve only seen him for short bits in Jamaica, on the streets of London, and the matera action set piece. The rest must be pinewood
I think a mandate for this one was Craig not being away from his family for months at a time.
The producers have a different approach to what they share on the filming. It's both bold in line with media venues and consciously restrictive where possible. Based on their experience with Spectre, beyond their control. So they assume the control they can balanced with good publicity for their film.
That's what my guess is too. Daniel Craig must have negotiated so many 'only if's' before he got onboard. In a way it sounds a bit similar to Connery's 'second' last Bond-film DAF (YOLT was supposedly Connery's 'first' last) and 'third' last Bond-film NSNA. However, this doesn't necessarily mean the film will be more lacklustre. I have a gut feeling that this time around the story of NTTD will be as ingenious as Fleming's story material for FRWL, OHMSS and CR.
Awesome! I love Sting/The Police a lot so it’s a slam dunk for me on paper.
If Sting is really in talks -and let's not forget that Adele's name was already floating around early spring of 2012 for Skyfall- then I would be utterly delighted. It would be a daring choice. But given the circumstances under which NTTD is produced, and looking at how Cary Fukunaga is a fan of 80-ies Bond-films, I wouldn't be surprised.
Anyway, the band was headlining Global Citizens Festival 2019 yesterday night in New York City’s Central Park and Rami Malek introduced them. Plus during the concert he can be seen singing along several times. Must say that Malek has some real energetic persona. Wonder how that's gonna come out playing a Bond-villain
Productions often have little parties during production, especially when they wrap a significant location. The wrap party will be in UK, at some swanky venue and the entire cast, crew, and anyone else involved in any capacity on the film, plus partners, will be invited. I went to the TWINE wrap at a venue opposite the Millennium Dome, and it was a huge bash.
Probably true, but it’s horrible!
I think the DB10 is still right for him. Muscly and angry looking but still handsome and classy.
I have wondered about the new ones: that paint finish seems shinier than I’ve seen the DB5 look before, it’s true.
