In that picture i can see how soundtrack can going to look like.
Remember the first Ant Man movie, the one that Edgar Wright (Hot Fuzz, Baby Driver) was supposed to direct before he left due to "creative differences". Peyton Reed took over, and the script went through several revisions by Adam McKay (The Big Short, Vice), star Paul Rudd and Reed. Early reviews regarded the film as quite formulaic, but a few of them praised the wandering explanations provided by Luis (Michael Peña) that were typically the visual kind of humor that Wright makes so distinctive. Except they were not. They were a Reed addition.
The classiest post I've ever seen on here. Respect.

It's a quite lavish coffee table book, going by the dimensions: 27.3 cm x 30.2 cm or 10.75" x 11.88". Page count is alright, curious to know what the ratio of pictures versus text will be. I have different behind-the-scenes books (mostly from the Harry Potter movies) and some of those are heavily on pictures, while others go for lots of text blocks and some images.
Well I'm defintiely getting this. ButI wonder if this man will feature if its a true 'making of':
Agreed.
I'd also, though, say that I'm once again frustrated at the strawmen that get set up here. These articles suggesting that "people are critical about the role of women" in Bond films. If PWB is creating a better story and better characters all around, that's great, and if there was all sorts of blatant misogyny in the original script that she's fixed . . . great.
But hell, you can go back to 1969 and find a really strong, well-rounded character in Tracy played by an excellent actress in Rigg.
This isn't some sort of brand-new fix to an age-old problem.
Regardless, he is an essential component in the 'making of' NTTD. There is a truly fascinating story to tell about how this film got made. One that an Eon-mandated book might not shine too much of a light on. However, considering this is a £40 coffee-table book designed for the more discerning fan, I can see Eon being a little more honest than expected about how Boyle's vision differs. After all, Boyle's costume designer, production designer and (one) editor remained. But I don't expect it too linger on this info - as it's CJF's film it will focus on 99.5%.
So whilst you're right, Danny Boyle didn't 'make' NTTD, he played an important role in the film being whatever it is now. Even if it was indirectly.
Hopefully it will be like Goldeneye where Bond comes up with something witty.
But surely they're employed by EON, not Boyle or Fukunaga.
I don't see any book about NTTD having anything that includes Danny Boyle.
That would be ideal, as far as i'm concerned. They can have all the feminism in the world, as long as Bond keeps his attitude.
What i liked about GE was that, while ramping up the feminist undertones, they made Bond even more of an ass than usual (seducing his psychiatric evaluator to get cleared for duty, aggressively hitting on MP "What's the penalty for that", his dynamic with Xenia "No more foreplay", butting heads with M.)
That's the dynamic i wanna see, don't sugar coat it. Daniel pulled it off beautifully in CR as well.
For some this might be a given, but sometimes you get swept up in all the media frenzy of #metoo and whatnot. Also we have many new players here. But i remain confident that EoN understands what makes Bond so entertaining and will deliver that.
And if PWB can deliver (among everybody else), i will worship her as everybody else seems to be doing.
The formula for surviving this era is really in that film. Goldeneye has some of the best dialogue in the series.
That's true.
Looks like we are on the same page ;) @00Agent
(No pity comeback no..... chitchat?
love that line)
It appears we share the same passions.
If the Making-of book were true reportage or a work of film history (and not a piece of puffery, which I'm afraid it probably will be), it would include a complete account of the film's pre-production, including full disclosure of Boyle and Hodge's involvement; what they did and why they were let go.
Standard Operating Procedure Haha keep going 🤣😂 @00Agent
By the way, fantastic background info, @HildebrandRarity!
My fellow swede and actor Michael Nyqvist died in 2017 from lung cancer. As you may well know he garnered international attention starring as Mikael Blomkvist in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire, and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest adapted from the Millennium series of novels by swedish author Stieg Larsson. The first novel, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, was also adapted in 2011 and directed by David Fincher, starring Daniel Craig as journalist Mikael Blomkvist.
Michael Nyqvist also co-starred in Abduction, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, John Wick, Hunter Killer before he died.
After his death his widow started the Michael Nyqvist Foundation that annually hands out an award to someone who works in his spirit based on this "To honour his artistry and deeds, Michael Nyqvist Foundation will continue what Michael started: to highlight and advocate the art form of acting and its ability to create understanding and diminish conflict."
This week the foundation announced the 2019 recipient:
David Dencik, Sweden
Motivation by the board: David is a magician who allows himself to be transformed for each new role that he takes upon himself, both physically and mentally. He moves with exquisite ease between different genres without sacrificing authencity nor credibility. In short; a true magician!

David Dencik (clean shaven and bald) was just interviewed on swedish televison minutes before he's headed to the big gala tonight picking up the award.
:-)
Can't wait to see how he's like in NTTD. IMO he's the best casting for the film.
There's the DB10
The DB5 is missing it’s mirrors too, and maybe it’s overriders, I can’t tell. It might be my imagination but is there something off about its windows?
‘A’ villain’s lair. This isn’t NTTD.
