I think this Bond girl will make it to the end of the movie. Yet their is always the chance they will kill her off.
What do you think?

    I agree with you. She will make it to the end, or she will die.

    :)) That's like saying heads I win, tails you lose. Or Herman Munster asking Grandpa if his and Lily's new baby will be a boy or girl, and Grandpa saying "Probably".

    I'm thinking Severine will be toast at one point, but I am hoping to be wrong.

    Why do you need to raise spoilers? There's no need for that; Though there is the Spoilers and News thread in this forum.

    Not really news or a spoiler though, is it? It's just idle speculation and a discussion with a fairly low rate of reply. I mean, it's either "I think she will" or "I think she won't". Either way, not a lot of legs for debate.

    Asking a Bond girl not to die is mostly like asking water not to be wet. ;-)

    berenice will kick the bucket i reckon. will be disappointed if she doesn't go out in style defending Bond in a final act of redemption.

    On the other hand, whatever happened to the obligatory simulated sex scene we used to get just prior to the closing credits? They did say they were looking to bring back some of the older ideas to make this Bond more how shall we say "of the formula".
    CR was like OHMSS, therefore the next film needed closure. That closure has now happened so bring it back on in SF.

    You are spot on. Eve (Naomi) lives and Bereniece bites the dust. It is in keeping with the sacrificial lamb and all that formulaic bull.

    That's what I think too. The bigger question is, does Bond have a girl in the end?

    Berenice will die and Pierce Brosnan will run in to kiss her and cop a feel.

    I agree. Most of the films since the very beginning DN ends with Bond having the girl on or near a body of water. Exceptions being OHMSS, LALD, MR, GE, DAD, CR, QoS (AVTAK was a shower scene so it also counts as part of the rule)

    I think we gonna get him seducing Eve on or near a body of water in keeping with the formula endings. DC was denied this in his two efforts maybe this time he gets a chance to close in the arms of his leading lady (who will be Eve)

    I think there will be no repeat of Tracy or Vesper Lynd, in that Bond sees a loved one killed off before end of movie, of course the Montes character for QOS survived, but even then, didn't finish with Bond together at end of picture as we are so used to

    To be truthful I would be indifferent either way if Bond ends up with a Girl, or not, at the end once more, not seen since the Brosnan tenure ten years ago, but as we have not thus far seen a repeat, maybe they've taken a new direction?

    I hope Craig once again emerges victorious on his own, but spare the girls, I don't want them necessarily killed off, but if Bond once again, ends up on his own, I think that could work

    But I think there will be a repeat of Domino Derval (Thunderball) and Andrea Anders (The Man With The Golden Gun). So there is certainly big news about Bond-girl Sévérine (Bérénice Marlohe):
    Having seen all trailers and the new pictures, I think this is going to happen:
    1) 8022110158_fab86f6e6d.jpg
    Sévérine is tied up against the statues in her red dress. She has obviously been abused. Bond and Silva just come outside walking past the statues.

    2) 8022121145_b8c0928c0e_z.jpg
    Here we see Sévérine up close.

    3) 8022107849_54036bc379.jpg
    Then, all at a sudden, Bond being shocked completely, Raoul Silva coldheartedly kills Sévérine with an old cowboy pistol.

    The last time a Bond girl was killed that bluntly by someone else than Bond, was perhaps in 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service', when Irma Bunt kills off Tracy. Allthough Andrea Anders comes to mind as well, as we saw in 'The Man With The Golden Gun'.

    I think, this will be quite a shocker scene :-). Indeed the 'Thunderball' of our lifetime.

    It's probable she'll either live or die. As to which one it will be I cannot say, but it's possible that one of my predictions will be 100% correct.

    Severine is the Bond-girl you're talking about? Because I think Eve will the one that sighs out "Oooh Jamessss" at the very end of the movie...in bed with 007 off course ;-).

    Let's hope so. I agree with all you, I can see Severine dying and Eve surviving.

    Poor Daniel Craig, will he ever get a happy 'bedding the girl as the credits roll' ending?!

    We will be left with the idea that Bond will be a dad. So agent lady friend will be very much alive.

    I can see where the consensus is on this subject. Fact remains:
    Berenice has "Sacrificial Lamb" written all over her.

    Let's hope so. How about Bond snogging Eve amongst the glowing embers of Skyfall as the dawn rises over the nearby Loch?

    I hope he does for this one! But I have a bad feeling he won't. I don't want another film ending on a down note.

    CR had sort of a happy ending with "Bond, James Bond", but still, Vesper was dead, it was a bit depressing.

    QOS, it was meant to be a happy ending because Bond had found the guy who killed Vesper but the setting, the darkness, it all felt really cold and morbid.

    I hope we get a proper happy ending for SF, with Bond in bed with the girl.

    Who though? Berenice? Eve? That Greek bird? Clare Dower?
  • thelivingroyalethelivingroyale
    edited October 2012 Posts: 12,837
    I reckon Eve. The Greek bird is just a small part I think, like Dink in GF for example, just somebody for Bond to shag while he's enjoying death. And I think Berenice will die.

    So yep, I think Bond and Eve at the end.

    Nice one. Eve is looking good in the casino stills.

    Berenice looks too thin in recent shots. She needs a good meal.

    The Greek girl is Tonia Sotiropoulou. It's a mouthful. So is she :))

    From what we know, I doubt we'll get the "Bond bedding the girl" ending. Personally though, if we're getting what I think we are, then it'll be even better!
