Yeah, just two winters.
I think that suavejmf's point was that making Bond and Blofeld childhood acquaintances was bad, regardless of the nature of their relationship.
Then again, nothing would surprise me at this point.
Bond and the lady 00 double flying the glider thing reminds me of the switchblade scene in Die Another Day with Jinx.
"Teal and Orange – Hollywood, Please Stop the Madness"

I could be wrong but next week or the week after or early next month for trailer 2. Final poster end of the month or early next month IMO.
Bond didn't know Leiter either in DN or CR and they met for the first in time in both movies. Different continuities.
He just says that his father asked him to call him “brother” and then makes a joke about that in the interrogation room. Speaking in general, people seem to blow this brotherhood topic out of proportions since even Blofeld never cared about Bond as long as he started to mine his business.
I am not arguing againt color grading. All big movies the last 20 years are graded in some way or another.
I'm personally just fed up with this specific teal 'Transformers' look, but to each his own. I prefer Bond's skin to be on the skin tone line.

@Birdleson
It was impossible to digitally colorgrade back then. The reason why many Bond movies have certain "colors", is because of the production design, the choice of the framing from the cinemaphotographer, the film stock used, the clothes, the props etc... Especially Lewis Gilbert and his cinemaphotographers were masters of color tone.
When people say 'foster brothers' or 'step brothers' or 'Bond and and Blofeld are brothers', what's on their mind is not brotherhood in a literal sense of the word, it's the fact that Blofeld and Bond know each other since childhood. That very thing is what some of us (or many of us) find ridiculous. Personally, I think it's the worst idea in the Bond franchise, a badly written fan fiction.
The term 'brother' is just the easier way of saying 'they know each other since they were children'.
It's been explained so many times, it's hard for me to believe some people still don't get it.
I couldn’t care less what’s on hundred people’s mind regarding this topic. Saying Bond is his step brother is just wrong. Incorrect. Simple as that.
Oh, so you here to make sure everyone uses the correct terms. Sorry then, my bad. :)
The picture adjustment options were essentially a series of hidden knobs one manually turned to get the image to their liking: contrast, brightness, color, tint, and sharpness.
Some RCA sets had extreme tint levels. The teal look of NTTD reminds me an RCA tube television which the tint was turned to the extreme cyan or teal side of the spectrum.
Back in those days most people I knew never realized how badly their television sets were calibrated.
love this picture.
Transformers was the first movie utilising the teal/orange-look, IIRC. This is where all the actors looked like they suffered from jaundice. Transformers is often used as an example of grading going overboard. And the icy look? That's white for me. At least that's what I want Safin's jacket to be.
I think this is the final grading and looks great
Dear God it does make a difference. I wish we could send this to editors, sadly grading must have been finished by now.
But @Zekidk look at the hands, left one seems more real and natural.
