Thanks, that’s actually a great explanation and makes sense.
Which leads me to the question: Did Primo have only one eye when he is talking to Valdo while the nanobots are being prepared? Or are there multiple eyes? He clearly puts the one from the pillow into his eye socket after the bald guy drops dead, but did he not have an eye before that?
Also, it took me a while to realize that this means that Blofeld was able to see everything that happened in Matera first hand. Or at least until Bond punches the eye out. Doesn't mean all that much, but it's an interesting thought.
Also, having your boss see everything you see and apparently be able to talk directly into your head must be pretty annoying. Primo probably didn't have a lot of fun in that club in Jamaica.
I also started to think, after seeing the film again, that some portions may have been changed during delay. I'm wondering if the Cuba scene is not a late add-on, explaining why it was the last scene shot with Craig as Bond.
I believe the Cuba scenes were shot initially with De Armas only, as per the original schedule, then at the end of production with Craig due to him injuring his foot, and not because it was a late addition.
Once they start bringing back classic villains, then we know EON is in full Marvel mode, (I know they brought back Blofeld, but he always was a recurring character).
I hope Eon already plan and if not stil consider it,
Personaly i hoped NTTD end with escaped Blofeld with burnd unknown new face and using Safin mask as protection he found in the water. When i see trailer i first thaught there will be water comes to a secret door (the wall with 3 mask on it) and Bond will swim a in that water with fire around him (Who turn out Bond escape from Airplane). The movie have more Goldeneye reference i hoped on. With all bulding up with Nomi, how amazing it have been if she go back inside (with or without Bond), Bond waiting on her and she not comingback. Refer a bit then to AVTAK May Day (Directer have been fan of AVTAK).
Fukunaga said in the official podcast that they shot the two parts of that sequence 6 months apart. They couldn’t push or extend de Armas‘ availability and Craig had screwed up his ankle at the time she was there. So he only did the non-stunt parts then, she did all her fight stuff with a double and then they picked up Craig’s side of things at the very end of the schedule, which is why it is the very last thing Craig shot.
I feel the same way, especially after seeing how emotional it was on set after the moment he turns the corner.
It felt quite seamless to me. Not like in QoS where Bond drove his destroyed AM from Lake Garda to Siena… that’s a good 4.30h drive. Probably it felt weird to me because I was born very close to that road by the lake so I know that place extremely well.
Yep in the film Matera is supposed to be super close to the coast.
It's another one of those "continuous edits" like Bond getting into the V8. Another Matera example is we see Bond crossing the bridge in the distance as he heads to Vesper's grave, and as the camera pans to the cemetery, we see Bond already there. In the case of the DB5, it's probably two cars used for one shot, and a Bond stand-in on the bridge for the cemetery sequence.
Excellent, thanks. I figured that was the case, just didn't look right to me.
Again a "Making of" can easily be fabricated after the fact
As far as I know you can't grow or "build" anything in a corrosive acid bath, which is what appears to be portrayed on screen, judging by the effect when someone falls into it.
The word "acid" relates to much more than sulphuric acid and the like, but to those who don't know any better, like movie script writers, acids must always be highly corrosive.
In scientific terms it just means "a molecule which can donate a proton or accept an electron pair in reactions."
In any case nanobots would not require any elaborate bacteria or toxins to kill you, they could much more easily release a simple everyday bubble of oxygen to clot a blood vessel or just cut you up from the inside.

Can we kindly stop fueling this nonsense?
Ah, and as far as I know, a lot of things featured in James Bond movies can’t be done in real life. XD
Mmmm, but Craig-Bond was meant to be more "gritty" and "realistic" wasn't he?
I was merely showing proofs that NTTD is not a realistic and grounded film like CR or QoS were. Is that allowed?
CR and QoS both had things that were not realistic.
You're allowed to say whatever you want. And anyone is allowed to respond how they want to your opinions. I have no idea how "is this allowed" even entered the conversation.
A bionic eye through which Blofeld is able not only to see but to speak and communicate as well being “not realistic” is a fact not an opinion. Is that an opinion stating that the Earth is not flat..?
I have no idea why you felt I was complaining about anything tho.
