A quick reminder about piracy and websites : in your URL bar, type "mi6.co.uk" and see what happens...
I'm basically informing @panchito in a gracious way to leave them to their own devices without ridiculing them.
Apparently shooting is still on for Spectre. I will include a link with no spoiler information, just something to corroborate that Mendes, Craig, and the rest are hard at work on location: https://tv.yahoo.com/news/daniel-craig-smith-still-working-154057358.html
They did a much better job of introduction in the films, but the character depicted in the films is barely a shade of Fleming´s Blofeld. Let alone the fact that Fleming decribed three Blofelds in three novels.

I think waltz may be a Red Herring. I think theee will be a Blofeld reveal at the end but it will be someone else entirely and someone who hasn't been announced as part of the cast. I still think the Mark Strong / Danile Craif trip to Mkrroco (a know film location) before official filing may be more the a coincidence

Not real, I just edited a set picture.
The domain name change had zero to do with 'piracy and websites'. I don't know where you get you bad information from, or such a sparkling imagination.
STATEMENT ON SPECTRE
Posted 13.12.2014
EON PRODUCTIONS, the producers of the James Bond films, learned this morning that an early version of the screenplay for the new Bond film SPECTRE is amongst the material stolen and illegally made public by hackers who infiltrated the Sony Pictures Entertainment computer system.
Eon Productions is concerned that third parties who have received the stolen screenplay may seek to publish it or its contents. The screenplay for SPECTRE is the confidential information of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios and Danjaq, LLC, and is protected by the laws of copyright in the United Kingdom and around the world. It may not (in whole or in part) be published, reproduced, disseminated or otherwise utilised by anyone who obtains a copy of it. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios and Danjaq LLC will take all necessary steps to protect their rights against the persons who stole the screenplay, and against anyone who makes infringing uses of it or attempts to take commercial advantage of confidential property it knows to be stolen.

If North Korea leak the script I hope Bond 25 features a story based on a people uprising to over throw its government, don't mess with EON bitches
Agreed. I'm still quite surprised Sony gets so much blaim. Because in the end we talk about criminal acts here. Stolen material. Executed and spread by #GOP, criminal hacking syndicate with the name "Guardians Of Peace". Regardless of the leaks being nice or not so nice, regardless of the fact that it puts Sony in a bad light.
We see were this leads to now. Shutdowns. Filming being put on halt. Production delays. Leaks of entire screenplays. Dangerous intrusions of people's privacies. Employees getting fired. People stepping down. And a possibility that production on SPECTRE will stop indefinitely.
An example how this started. It really makes me say again: Hunt those basterds down. It now seriously affects our own upcoming Bond film:
A pity, because what I've read to date has been far from inspiring to say the least.
Imagine Idris Elba with either a bald head or long hair, in any case with yellow contact lenses (a bit like in Thor, a bit like Blofeld´s green lenses from the OHMSS novel), turn around in a swivel chair at the end of SP, exposing his face. They could end the film there, or make it cheesy and have him say something like, "I´ve been expecting you, Mr. Bond".
What fact?
Why a two-story arc for SPECTRE? SPECTRE only makes sense as a repeatedly recurring pest, the same goes for Blofeld.
What does Sam´s return for only one film have to do with it? Do the new M, MP and Q disappear again when Sam isn´t there anymore?
I have faith, but if we're being honest some of the stuff that's leaked is pretty awful, including the villain's basic premise and motivations. 3 years for this? I don't want to spoil this thread, so I'll say no more. I hope for the best.......and yes, hopefully these most recent rewrites by Butterworth cleaned up some of the weak spots.
True. Hope so. And before I get questions about which script I read and where it can be obtained, I did not read a script. I read a synopsis online of an early draft.
I'm truly annoyed by all this. Even more so when I read reactions like "but if we're being honest some of the stuff that's leaked is pretty awful". I'm really sad that we're even discussing this draft screenplay.
Fortunately to date the full draft screenplay, which is apparently online in 2 versions, is not easy to find.
If it is leaked in a more overt fashion in the next few weeks, then we'll have an interesting & unofrtunate situation where casual fans may know more about the actual plot (albeit an early version) than die hards who are trying not to find anything out.
Now that EON has put its statement out with threats, hopefully that's enough for some sites to take down what they've already put up.
I for one hope they do, because synopses are actually broadcast on some sites that people go to in order to read general entertainment news, rather than when specifically searching for this stuff. That's how I came across it.
Well considering I currently know where to get it, it wasn't that hard to find. The delay was with Pirate Bay shutting down.
It is an early draft. Sources say they were working on it up to November at the most recent time reported. Not abnormal. As far as them not liking the script, that's not a spoiler. Details from the script are spoilers. Someone not liking the third act isn't. Plus, a later document shows the Sony guys were much happier with a revised version, and were looking forward to the streamlined shooting list.
No worries. I think Skyfall's third act was it's strongest, so I'm not worried about what they'll bring this time. Also, the following could be a minor spoiler, but those of you who want a carryover should read it:
