    It really is disappointing that they can't just put the DB5 to bed.

    There's a terribly post-modern vibe to these cars and the photos at night with empty streets. This chase is going to be epic it seems.

    Will this DB5 bickering ever stop?

    Just my 5 pence worth but, you have to accept that Bond and the DB5 will forever be linked, it is now part of the Bond folklore as, despite best efforts by Omega, is Rolex (on a NATO strap), Turnbull and Asser and Anthony Sinclair. The DB10 will always play the Bond car history but...think Bond, think DB5 etc.

    Everyone has their own opinions and, depending on your age, their own favourites. But judging from the reaction when it appeared in Skyfall, and I attended the cast and crew showing where it prompted a huge cheer, I suspect it will have at least a cameo in all future Bond films.

    If you attended a supercar meeting in the UK the cars that always attract a great deal of attention are the Aston Martins, old and new. A DBS is a staggeringly beautiful car and sounds fantastic but the Bond connection sets it apart from its contemporaries, it is Bond on four wheels. But wheel in a DB5 and you will always have a winner.

    And, would you rather see pictures of something going on or....several moths of silence and no pictures from a closed set?

    Be grateful there is lots of coverage at the moment.

    Nope, according to the DailyMail and our lovely friend @Germanlady. Danny Boy is in London.

    What I don't have to accept is it featuring in the modern films. It was in GF/TB and didn't feature again for thirty years. It wasn't a problem then. They just need to let go and stop clinging to the past.

    Why did they have those cameras on the cars yesterday when filming on Via Nomentana, I hope they won't paste Daniel's face on the stunt double's face like they did in the Istanbul Motorbike roof chase.

    Well said! What makes the return of the DB5 especially annoying is that it blew up at the end of Skyfall. That movie was about the old and the new, and just as we said goodbye to the old M and the old MI6, it seemed like we said goodbye to Bond's old car too. Bringing it back completely undermines its destruction in Skyfall.

    My simple response to all criticism leveled at SP is HFIM. (Have Faith in Mendes.)

    I wonder how prominent this “Estrella” role is in the film.

    Ilario Citton has interviewed the italian producer of Spectre. He said that Daniel has done filming in Rome. The first unit will now go in Mexico City, with the second unit going to Morocco. Also, he said it's not true that Craig hurt himself while filming here, that they didn't film in Verano because some tombs owners felt it was not respectful for the dead. They decided to come to Rome because they wanted to do something was never done with the city, making it even more famous in the world. Also, Tax Credit laws helped them. He said the production and Sam Mendes were impressed by the organization that were built in Rome.

    The DB5 is just a cheap gimmick at this point. Bringing it back was a terrible idea, although a short cameo won't completely ruin the movie.

    Trust me, understanding the very particular situation that allows it to be brought back in this film is extremely unlikely without having read the script. It isn't just brought back arbitrarily or anything like that.

    Sigman is a fine choice indeed and far less showy casting than Cruz. Nonetheless, she is beautiful. She also appeared in the music video for the Arctic Monkeys' single 'Snap Out of It'

    I have read the screenplay. The way it is brought back is very uninspired, and the car's appearance is nothing more than a cheap gimmick. Having said that, I do not think it will really have a big negative impact on the overall quality of the movie, so I'm not worried.

    Good. Don't want any more huge name actors in minor roles clogging up the narrative and lessening believability.
