Quite. There isn’t a single scene in Bond where he has a passenger and they don’t converse. Given the context of this chase (and what we know) this is only logical. If it does turn out to be some sort of soap opera on wheels then we can talk on April 2nd, but until then it seems an odd fixation. ‘Bond and girl in vehicular conversation shocker!’
That's not true. In FYEO Bond and Melina hardly spoke while being chased down the roads in Spain, and in TSWLM the line "you ever get the feeling that somebody dosn't like you?" was the only thing said between Bond and Anya while being chased by Jaws and later the chopper. There are other examples, but you have a point. As long as its logical. Like "turn right here" or "let me take the wheel."
As someone else mentioned, this appears to be quite the sequence with the graveyard attack, jumping off the bridge, at least one fistfight, all with Bond without Madeleine.
I don’t know why this is even an issue, lol!
You're right @matt_u but I do wonder when this takes place in the film. In the brief 'Q Trailer' Bond tells Q that he needs a plane, however I think this scene takes place in London, post Cuba
People will complain about anything and everything. This is what happens, I think, when there's a lot of time between news releases; everything just gets picked apart ad infinitum.
Everything about this film looks awesome and I can't wait to see what they give us in April!
Yeah I was thinking about that too... maybe Bond needs a plane by the end of the London scenes in order to reach another place... Norway/Russia... however that explosion scene should be Cuba given what Empire wrote.
Still confused about Norway/Russia though. Russia seems be more plausible imo.
Just noticed that Bond, during the attack at Safin's liar, wears the same white shirt he has during the Toyota wood chase. I believe we are in Russia, Bond fails to protect Madeleine (and the girl?) during the Toyota wood chase and the two get kidnapped and taken by helicopter to Safin's island/liar. Bond get rescued by Nomi with the Superleggera, they team up and break inside Safin's liar. They split for whatever reason (maybe Nomi searches for Madeleine and the girl while Bond goes to kill Safin), Bond gets captured and confronts Safin. Then he's able to free himself, he has blood on his face and doesn't wear the blue jumper. Here some stills from the trailer in a plausible chronological order... you can see Bond's silhouette in the seventh, left to Nomi:
@matt_u How do we explain Swann (with walkie talkie) and Nomi (tactical gear/dress) in the rib boat plus on the stony beach together?
I can repost those pictures but I'm too lazy at the moment
Given how Madeleine seems worried in those scenes, I believe Nomi is able to save the two and perhaps they are escaping the island, maybe without James.
Possibly, still Atlantic road is too well known to double for Russia.
In Fallout they took arguably the most famous “outdoor” spot in Norway and pretended was India. In SP they took one of the most famous British palaces and pretended to fit in Rome. So that’s not going to be an issue, especially since the AR is not that “too well known”. It’s not the Colosseum.
This is true but SP one was pretty well known imo and it was hard to ignore . I haven't seen Atlantic road before this one so yeah you are right it won't be an issue if it fits well in the film.
Yeah it was pretty weird.
With Russian graffiti on his liar and an army of RR with Russian plates yeah, sounds quite unlikely...
Why is Blofelds voice used just before everyone is gassed then?
Perhaps Safin jeopardizes Blofeld's plan to kill Bond, killing his men. Anyway, all this "Blofeld birthday party" situation sounds weird to me, especially since Blofeld is in a super high-security jail. How could be able to even record a message? There must be something more important than the birthday of someone in prison for all the SPECTRE members to meet in a single place.
I don’t think he and Vesper talk whilst in the DBS, but weirdly I can’t remember how much of that scene stated in the film! :)
Spectre meets Marriage Story
Could be that it's a doctored audio of Blofelds voice created by Safin in order for the members who survive the gassing to spread the news that Blofeld has betrayed Spectre.
That sounds so convoluted, to be honest... If there's indeed to be some infighting between Safin and Blofeld, I'm almost certain I'm not going to dig it. At all. Just takes away the focus from Bond, in my view.
The premiere of Goldfinger in '64 was my first. Yes, I'm biased Boomer.
I think it's in the film not off set. At least that's what I am hoping.
