    Who still thinks SP will be Craig's last?
    he has a contact for one more bond! He renewed his 3movie contract after skyfall for two more bonds! So Specte is not his last, but the next one might not be his last one! Maybe he will renew his contract again. Roger Moore after TSWLM he was in one movie contract after every bond he did until AVTAK.

    As long as these films make money, DC is back, regardless of who is helming/co-financing it. Bond is a massive industry....but it is about the money to a degree.

    Love the trailer. That's got to be the longest delivery of B....J.....B in history. Quite a confident and menacing delivery if I may say so. Like he really means business.

    It's going to be great, no doubt, but I must admit I prefer the people/acting scenes, no matter how brief, to all the action stuff with the plane/cars etc. I'm getting a little action fatigue these days. It's on the people front (including convincing delivery of lines etc. - note Waltz, Craig & Christensen's elocution in the trailer for example) that Bond will differentiate itself from all the popcorn CGI FF7 pretenders for me.

    Im with you on this, I want more dialogue. Lttel Gem moments like Bond and M in Skyfall when they are talking about his abituary are too and too few between.

    Agreed. It's great what they did with it. I would like to believe it was an idea by Mendes.

    After 50 years it never occured to me it could be read in any other way. Really great.

    Minor observation. I hope they clean up the colours in the snow sequence, looks a bit yellow.

    Agreed. Hoping the final grade is more crisp and cold.

    My spies and eyes within Pinewood have revealed to me that today they are filming...
    the sequence where the helicopter crashes into Westminster Bridge. They have indeed built a huge replica of the bridge there.

    Some remarks:
    --> I love the orange-y filter/glue that is used by cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema. It makes the movie look both mysterious and warm. Very different from "Skyfall".
    --> While staying loyal to the dramatic, darker, film-noir esque atmosphere of "Casino Royale" and "Skyfall", "SPECTRE" has most certainly more memorable action and fight sequences.
    --> Ehh guys? I think Bond is bedding the most nr. of girls in one Bond film in "SPECTRE". I'm pretty certain it'll be a record for Daniel Craig :-).
    --> Henchman Hinx is adamant at killing the failures within crime syndicate S.P.E.C.T.R.E. I just love how he 'destroys' a S.P.E.C.T.R.E.-members neck.
    --> "SPECTRE" seems most certainly Craig's Bond film with the most amount of mystery injected in it. At this point I just STILL don't know what the actual villain's scheme is.
    --> It oozes Terence Young-esque suaveness. Certain stills and images could be directly coming from one of the 1960's Bond films, FRWL, TB or OHMSS.
    --> Expect a full official trailer based on the NBA-tv spot this week, which is perhaps slightly longer.

    Yes! Glad it wasn't just an impression. It reminded specifically of FRWL, which makes me even more excited. I haven't read the script and I don't intend to, but people's opinions on it worried me a lot. Now I think I might me able to enjoy the movie.

    What opinions? All the people who've read it, loved it. It was only the first draft that had a pretty weak third act. The October script is in my eyes phenomenal and the closest you can get to a sixties- Connery Bondfilm.

    This is REALLY going to be an awesome Bondfilm. One of the best, I think.

    Well, I know people who loved it and I know people who disliked it, and they worried me a bit. But I waited until I could make my own opinions and now I'm fine with the direction they're taking. I'm trusting EON with my eyes closed.

    I certainly loved the script, and after seeing the TV spot I'm more excited than ever. This movie is going to be truly spectacular, in every sense of the word.

    The October script was the old script. The new one, which people are probably referring to, with the huge changes for the 3rd act, is from early December.

    And yes... judging from that script, it has the potential to be amongst my favorite Bond movies. The unknown factor here is Thomas Newman.

    I'm praying he delivers something memorable for the car chase. I need another stonking track to add to the driving playlist.

    You guys say Lea and Craig are in a lift. Given how it moves, given how light moves, I'd rather say it's a train - which would send us back to the glory days of From Russia With Love or The Spy Who Loved Me.

    Yes, I meant the December script. Thanks for correcting me!

    Is it known which parts of the SPECTRE script were rewritten by P&W?

    Personally, I've never really had an issue with their screenwriting... sure, they have written some bad stuff on their own, but I feel like they get unfairly blamed for a majority of things that they do not even have control over:

    - Apted having his wife revise, rewrite and rework parts of the TWINE script,
    - Tomahori's obsession with CGI
    - Haggis rewriting the finale to Casino Royale,
    - Foster throwing out Purvis and Wade's QOS script and having it rewritten.

    Agressive fear mongering? Could you possible be more demagogue? I have said many times that I believe the movie will be good, possibly great. Yes, I am far from satisfied with the script, but the movie has a very competent director. (See the "Bond, James Bond" line from the latest TV spot.) I don't think there are more than a few dozen people on Earth who like Mendes as a movie director as much as I do.

    I think Cubby or Salzman was asked in the 80s what sets Bond apart from the other action heroes, and his answer was, "Bond´s got style" :-).
