We are talking the official marketing campaign here. Not fraudulent leaks. Do you know why people inhere are so frustrated to get some official info/material for NTTD? Because back in 2015 we had far more. With NTTD we are almost 5 months away from the premiere and we genuinely know nothing (which is exciting, if you ask me). Basically, we don't even know where the PTS will 100% take place. We are not even sure if Romer is still the composer. We have no idea how the film will look nor how half of the cast will look. Zero stills, except one where Bond doesn't even look quite... Bondian (yet is cool). And all this, taking into account that the first footage will be available in a month. And that's the encouraging forecast. Basically the marketing campaign will kick 4 months before release, which is unusual for a blockbuster of this scale. So yes, this production has been quite secretive.
You're right. The title song being interwoven throughout the score makes absolutely no difference. Our mistake.
Sandgren's visuals are one of the things I'm most excited about, for sure. It's going to be a beautiful film and the vibrant colours of Jamaica are likely going to be a standout.
Indeed. Though I've enjoyed the photography of Craig's run so far, we haven't really had a vibrantly colorful Bond film like we traditionally used to get since arguably CASINO ROYALE. l love the photography of SKYFALL, but that was unique and more appropriate to that film than it would have been for others.
With the return to Jamaica, certainly I hope we get back to the classic color pallete of Ted Moore's photography from the 60s.
I don't think you realize how smug you sound at this point. "It doesn't matter as much as I think it does"? Oh my, you totally know my preferences better than I do.
EDIT: A neat site I found that is keeping track of the entire pre-production, production, and post-production of NTTD. Interesting to look through everything again and see all that's happened!

First Ana with Chris Evans, then Craig with Jamie. Same press junket this past week but with new interviewers
Colbert is a good interviewer. Giving Bond about 4 min, so it´s out of the way and they can talk, albeit only a few words, meaningfully about Knives Out. That clip sold me ten times more than any trailer or clip I´ve seen of the film before. Craig might have done a proper southern accent in Logan Lucky, but here he really is on fire, not just his accent. If the other actors shine even half as much as Craig and Curtis do in this clip, I´ll be extatic.
He's having too much fun on vacation, but he's working on it. ;)
He's in Columbia now I think. Promised to let us have some material when he have the time
It's because he's finally done with Bond. We saw a similar thing with Harrison Ford during Force Awakens.
Probably just happy thinking about the…
…he's made from NTTD ;-)
Also this makes me wonder if we do have a femme fatale in the movie after all.

How are you saying that compares to Spectre? I genuinely don’t recall what we knew 5 months out. Had they said what the pre-titles would be and released stills of Blofeld?
Well if you’re saying all of these people working extremely hard over the past decade or so did a bad job I think it’s reasonable to ask why you’d say that about them. But instead you’re just having a go at me.
I know you're still sceptical about it, but in Craig's mind, he's really done (at the moment).
He reaffirmed on Colbert:
The way he said it... There's no doubt in my mind that DC has said goodbye to the role, mentally.
I know a lot of things can happen from the NTTD premiere through Bond 26, and he might change his mind later, but for now it's over.
Well, they could've picked a better source.
I think it's over, but I'm still waiting for an official confirmation. :-? B-)
Personally I thinks its obvious
he is done from his aura. There is a sense of relief and relaxedness which indicates to me that whatever happens now, its not his problem anymore. Like a weight off the shoulders.
Yes. Frankly, I hope Craig stays on as a producer in the Bond franchise after his departure from the role. In every single Bond film he has made, Craig has fought behind the scenes for better quality screenplays (much as Brosnan did but without similar success).
For NTTD, Craig approached PWB to rewrite the screenplay. For SP, he approached Jez Butterworth to rewrite the script (a fact we learned from the Sony leaks). I can only imagine what the Craig era would have been like if the scripts had not been rewritten and were 100% by Purvis & Wade.
With Craig's departure, I hope Babs doesn't return to her pre-Craig approach of just using scripts by Purvis & Wade with minimal polishing by others. That would be a dispiriting thought.
+1 Craig has his fingerprints all over his era.
I can't imagine P&W sticking around though. They wanted to leave 2 movies ago, and must be pretty much burned out by now, and they know it. I don't even understand what they could have possibly contributed to NTTD with so many writers joining in afterwards.
You really do this on purpose don't you.
I said that I'm sure he'll retire after NTTD, but that I'm waiting for a more "proper" confirmation.
I’m sad about that (although maybe it’s a really hardball negotiation position! :) ), but happy that we’ve got one more to look forward to.
It end with black screen and spoiler moment in preview of episode 5 that follows.
The series sofar ( i record all 15 episodes that have been on tv)King remember me to QOS and The Talented Mr Ripley. The first episode whas moost heavy of all of them with trowing a lot of information. Second helps the story foward and 4th episode was more heavy again. Very black humor and sarcasm. Some things look like predectibil, some are but then a twist coming. Killing Eve as title why was my first opnion, but besides the explanation in ep3 i think it is a bit like Another Way To Die. Sometimes i missing explanation why, what motives be for her work besides the kick she get from it.
I watch two episodes in two days with The 3th and 4th episode and turn out there are contuned episodes, a good match together.

I think if Eon are paying attention they should team him up with someone in press junkets. Perhaps, Lashana? She seems very charming and outgoing in interviews.
