Have to check out haphazard. Calvin Dyson and DutchBondFan are usually very good in their Bond reviews.
Run that thing back fam!
Greatly enjoyed that.
Filmed in Scotland but it’s likely Russia, given the car plates...
Could be, although he’s then driving the old Toyota which is on Norwegian(ish) plates, isn’t he? Plus we’ve seen them all driving along the Atlantic Road which surely can’t be pretending to be anything other than itself..?
I think my guess would be all of the helicopter/Toyota/Land Rover/Aston DBS/snowy forest stuff is Norway.
The Toyota car plate is from Norway, no doubt, but on the other hand there's an army of Land Rover with Russian ones... without forgetting that the V8 is part of the Atlantic Road chase as well. One thing is certain: they all come from the same big scene, and after Bond "fails" to protect Swann, Nomi comes by with the Superleggera and they likely team up. Plus I think the Valhalla has been replaced by the DBS.
i did one :(
i'm rather boring though.. it was difficult, because as a fan i was trying to focus and take as much in as i could, but still react enough for a video - i didnt do a great job - others are able to think out loud a lot quicker than me lol... but oh well..
I don’t think the V8 is part of that scene: I’d guess when we see it on the Atlantic Road that just shows Bond’s arrival into Norway. And I don’t think we have any reason to think the Valhalla isn’t in the film (it’d certainly make sense that Aston would want it there over the DBS as it’s a newer model).
Maybe looking through rose tinted glasses? I seem to remember in the late 70s Cubby was being crucified for disrespecting Fleming's work.
Yeah it does seem a bit rich to say that the guy who made Moonraker was a Fleming purist! :D
“We simply must have a gondola that turns into a hovercraft, exactly as Fleming wrote”
Cubby early 1977: "well we really pushed the envelope with TSWLM, we better scale it back and maybe do FYEO next - don't want go too far afterall.."
Cubby after seeing Star Wars: "BOND IN SPACE! MOONRAKER! RIGHT NOW!..... what?.... F the book - we need Bond in space with a full out TB-esque battle between good guys and bad guys, BUT WITH LASERS!"
Cubby Broccoli - Fleming purist
:))
don't get too bent about this, i am just being facetious :O)
But apart from those few, most movie youtubers are just putting up clips for the sake of it, without much knowledge of film or intelligence.
That would be a shame. The Valhalla was one of the things I was looking forward to most.
I tried long to stay away from this bloody speculation, but would it be feasible that a bunch of mercenaries from all over Russia came in their own cars via the land route to Norway?
@boldfinger thanks man. i appreciate that. :)
In a Bond film they probably flew in in a big transport plane! :)
Where were the Land Rovers in Spectre registered, out of interest? Were they local?
Why not? Two RR with Russian plates were spotted in the same spot on the Atlantic Road. There are pictures of the V8 and the Toyota together.
Regarding the Valhalla isn't weird that Nomi drives two different AM in basically what looks like the same spot?
I don't think that's any confirmation that the Valhalla is out though (do we know it's Nomi's car? Might even be the baddie's)
And the Aston shot; well we don't know what's going on there. Maybe they are changing vehicles indeed, maybe all of the vehicles used on that shoot were just parked up somewhere.
Well reports stated that 007 would've drive an electric AM. BTW no one is speaking about "things being confirmed" here. Regarding the Atlantic Road stuff, my assumption comes from the fact that the very same RR that are chasing the Toyota were part of aerial shots filmed on the AR, the very same spot where Bond drives the V8. But there are so many things we don't know about this film everything's possible.
Yeah, I meant keeping up with certain traditions...Gunbarrel at the beginning, Memorable theme song, Epic Score,Memorable villains & Henchman/Henchmen, Slick Gadgets, Bond narrowly escaping harrowing situations, Great action scenes, Bond kissing the girl at the end, an alternate version of the theme song as the end credits theme, a Bond film every two years & what we've missed most 'James Bond will return in........'. There's no doubt some Bond films of Cubby & Saltzman were OTT....but they always retained the traditional elements. Craig is a magnificent Bond. But I don't think Cubby sticking with tradition, would have wanted him. I think Cubby might have preferred someone like Clive Owen...coz he has a closer look of some Bonds he had worked with earlier.
I think it breaks down like this:
- Aston Martin DB5: The ‘hero’ car of the film. It’ll have a big action set-piece and is the main vehicle of the movie.
- The Voltane: Bond will simply drive in London for a bit and it’ll appear briefly in Norway.
- Superleggra: I think we are witnessing it’s only scene in the clip above with Nomi.
- Valhalla: No clue. I guess they are holding it back for the second trailer.
Speaking of second trailers……It’ll more than certainly premiere with ‘Birds of Prey’ on February 7th. Also, you have the Superbowl at the end of January.So basically, we get another trailer in around 6 weeks. Is this right @antovolk
I think the second trailer will focus less on the ‘Spectre’ connections. We will get more Rami Malek, Ana De Armas, Lashana Lynch and the Valhalla
I guess that Jan, Feb and especially March will be very noisy. I suppose that mean it’ll be quiet up to Xmas now.
Sure; they were chasing the Toyota on the AR. Can Bond be driving both? Dunno! :D
Fleming didn't really come up with much of that either! :)
But Cubby did work on Live and Let Die, which had no John Barry, no Q, no scene in MI6, no Bond in a dinner suit, Bond with fair hair, no 007 in the pre-titles, no Martini shaken-not-stirred, first black Bond girl etc. etc. He didn't just stick to these 'traditions' for the sake of it.
Yeah, true....Fleming didn't come up with any of those....but he saw Dr.No & FRWL & saw Parts of GF when it was in production. So am guessing he liked what he was seeing...if not,he would have said something. And am sure he must have been very impressed with the Gunbarrel & theme tune.
Perhaps the RR were already chasing the Toyota with Swann onboard (with a girl), Bond arrives with the V8 but then his car gets damaged or whatever and the chase continues with him driving the Toyota. The stunt double inside the V8 wears a jacket quite similar to the one Bond has in the forest scenes. Dunno!
Yeah I expect it’s something like that.
@HASEROT You at least know what you're talking about and are a genuine fan! I was primarily referring to videos of people who are just casual fans watching the trailer, people who don't even remember that Lea Seydoux or Christoph Waltz were in SP. I liked your reaction video :)
That scene with Bond along the side of the road, with no gun or urgency in his step, seems more like an end to something than a beginning.
