As Sir Roger's Bond would say "it's funny how the least little thing amuses him"
It’s indeed a short sighted thought. The only way the economy will start to recover is AFTER the virus has been neutralized. Trying to reopen during a pandemic only prolongs it and further hurts the economy. Luckily, the US has an election coming up, so voting out the bozos that clearly have no idea what they’re doing will be a step in the right direction.
@Junglist_1985 -- I agree. And it hurts to think we're a-ways off. All we can do now is ride this out.
The one positive for the likes of me: Craig is still the man in the tux-- something I have no problem with in the slightest, lol!
The first time I went to the US was for a cousin's wedding, and we traveled to New York. We stayed on Long Island and we spent a few of the days there in Manhattan, briefly taking a subway train to Brooklyn one day so we could walk back to Manhattan over the Brooklyn Bridge.
When did we set off from Heathrow Airport? The morning (UK time) after the 2016 election - yes, we did keep track of the results before we had to board our flight. We briefly thought (somewhat jokingly) just before our flight when we found out the final result 'Is it too late to turn around?'. Of course the wedding was lovely and the holiday as a whole was nice.
We did however see / experience a couple of Trump-related protests. One was during the first day we were in Manhattan. We decided after visiting Grand Central Station to take a yellow bus down Fifth Avenue to go to the 9/11 museum, and there was a protest going on outside the Trump Tower as we went past. One evening also, two members of our party got caught up briefly in a protest in Manhattan, because they happened to be staying in a hotel there instead of with the rest of us on Long Island.
So strange to think that the wedding and holiday was booked for that exact time! 😂That's definitely my version of 'Where were you when JFK was assassinated?'.
No thanks. I’ll stick with the current bozo. Who will win anyway, by the by.
If it releases. You'd probably be 20 by the time they actually release it, if we're lucky. I have doubts about an April release, let alone a 2021 release. But I sure hope I'm wrong. I'm just not as optimistic as others here who think it'll all be better in April.
Don't they sometimes cut/ shave the clips down a bit differently to how they appear in the movie though?
Yeah, it's very common. Just an interesting tidbit that I noticed.
Yup. I've seen this cutting down with nearly all the Craig era films when talk shows feature a clip of an action beat.
However, SP did also have clips that did not feature in the final cut.
It's very interesting, what sharp little eyes you have!
I felt it was shaved down because after the clip of him running on to the bridge, next he is already in the middle.
When Bond jumps from the bridge we cut to a front wide shot of the fall. The point Bond is going to land on is still only the middle height of the bridge meaning he is still way off the ground. From the trailer I assumed he landed on the ground.
Do we know how he gets down, we haven't seen this yet have we?
I think if you just run along that level the ground comes up at the sides to meet it.
There is that behind the scenes video blog where Bond kicks the door open into the light from what looks to be a tunnel or something and I assume he then has a fight with Primo, tackles him off the bike, rips his tie off etc. God its gonna be a damn fine opening.
I thought the same but there’s a door presumably with a staircase.
I won't be surprised if they do go for streaming. At least they're using some sense instead of delaying it over and over again like with NTTD. They'd still earn something with streaming. Box office earnings will never be the same again no matter when they release it. The movie is gonna be delayed again if the situation takes a turn for the worse in 2021. Then we'd probably never see it if they still insist on relying on the box office takings and keep delaying it. I'm definitely not placing any hopes for an April 2021 release. We'll just see the same clips over and over again until god knows when they decide to release it. Maybe 2 or 3 years from now. Because again I say, this virus isn't going to just disappear a year from now.
I thought the clip was great. I like the soundtrack, the siren was a cool effect.
Bond looking disorientated looked interesting I wonder why he's so confused, I love how frantic the action looks from the clips, Bond in real danger, reminds me of Casino and Quantum for that. Anyone else think the cinematography in Matera looks like a dream sequence? Like the way it's shot in a film wen they soften everything to represent a dream? Not saying it'll be a dream in the movie but that's the way it looks
Yeah as I say I might have mis seen it. I'll re watch now and re post my thoughts.
