    Yes. That Scooby thing arose when, after already awkwardly appearing en masse several times, the visual culminates with them crammed into this rocky van, following the action around to no real purpose. It was just too apropos a comparison to pass up making.

    To was a sedan and an SUV. ;)

    I take it it's common knowledge here now that Moneypenny's clothing attire is a direct nod to the real Scooby Gang's Fred Jones? Well played, Eon. Well played.

    I am still amazed that barely anyone is commenting on the teal and orange galore in this film , especially as Mendes got so much bashing for his yellow filter in SP.

    EVERYTHING we have seen from NTTD so far screams teal and orange right in your face up to a level that I have never seen in Hollywood before.

    - Matera: all orange including Craigs wardrobe with a particular teal ish sky
    - Kuba: Mostly teal with bits of orange
    - Norway: all teal
    - Safins hideount incl. his wardrobe: all teal
    - the laboratory: all teal
    - bonds house on Jamaica: orange; except for interior lighting teal
    - bar in which Bond and Felix meet: all teal
    - MI6 floor: Walls are rather teal than white
    - Interrogation room: teal
    - ...

    A minor but still important difference here is that a lot of the colour scheme seems to stem from practical lighting choices on set (the Jamaica club and Safin's lab being prime examples), rather than the colour grading doing a huge chunk of the heavy lifting in terms of mood. This is not a dig at HVH's work (there is plenty that I like in SP) but Sandgren's does look more vibrant and contrast-y.

    Welcome to the world of modern cinematography.

    That's not "modern". Teal and orange was a hype between 2005-2015. Hollywood is slowly abandoning it for other complementary colours and in the colorgrading community the famous M31Lut (or variations) used to get that teal and orange look on footage, is hardly sold or used anymore. I really can't think of a 2019 blockbuster that has that intense teal and orange look NTTD looks to have. 'Joker' comes close, but even this movie used other complementay colours as well, mainly red and green.

    I'm obviously referring to the use of color filtration in modern movies. Not necessarily teal or orange but in general.

    Let's just face the fact that everything about this film looks amazing, in terms of visual quality.

    Okay. Every movie is graded. Has been since early 00's. But there's natural and light grading (QoS) and there's intense grading (NTTD) which some people, probably including myself, will find distracting.

    Yes, graded. But not a teal and orange movie. Blue is blue, not teal. The grading complimented Deakins use of light rather well.

    For those wanting a closer look at the explosion with Bond and Felix, I have captured each frame in the scene, which gives a little more detail.

    It does look unnatural in some shots, but I definitely prefer it to a yellow filter, don't you agree? I like colors popping out.

    I used it in one post (actually “Scooby Kids”) a couple of days after SP was released in the US, I had no idea that it would ever be used again. But within a page or two, on the same thread, it had morphed into “Scooby Gang”, and there was no turning back.

    I can get that. I kicked off the PAINFACE meme, was happy to see it flourish across Bond communities!

    As exciting as it has all been, I’m not so sure I want any more stuff until the movie itself.

    Has anyone noticed that no-one through any of the marketing for this has complained about the five year gap? It's like there never was one haha :D

    That’s probably because the film (and its marketing) promises a lot: a three hour epic film, a new young director, some fresh writers, amazing camerawork, the closing chapter to Craig’s Bond, connecting all of his films in a more exiting way than Spectre did, some stellar action and stunts, a villain played by a recent Oscar winner, a song that’s had a mostly positive reception…

    So if they can deliver on those promises, no one will complain. And everyone will say it was worth the wait.

    But if push comes to shove and NTTD doesn’t deliver for most fans, you bet that there’ll be complaining about the five year gap and ‘that Boyle’s version would’ve been better’, ‘they should’ve let Craig go and started fresh’, etc… ;)

    There is a lot riding on NTTD. We will all be VERY unhappy if it doesn’t deliver haha. The gap has been awful, and to have waited for something mediocre or worse would really hurt.

    Explosion: I think it's

    Scientist Valdo (David Dencik) on the floor -- Bond has the same suit pants/white shirt as in the town-shootout scenes) and he's sent on a mission to Cuba by Felix to rescue the scientist.

    If you're saying that they are not complaining in the marketing, of course not. If you mean on here, it's been brought up (definitely by me for seemingly depending on plot lines that were forgettable five years ago).
    I meant amongst the general audience.

    I do hope you're correct. I don't like the alternative I've been reading here.
