So it looks like your credit does not come from what you write, but from what one's hope to read :)
Note also that if you believe it, it brings credence to the scoop that was reported here, from an alleged "troll"... I think the "rumour mill" in this forum has quite some quality. Mind you, I can't name an example of someone coming here, saying "I heard that.." , that turned out to be complete fabrication ! Most of the time, it was the "debunkers" who were wrong. Hollywood, sleep quiet : when a leak happens, most fans won't believe it anyway :)
Hey 'almighty observer'. Do you actually.....like James Bond? Are you a fan? What are you looking forward to with regard to "SPECTRE"?
Their greatest hope at returning to the Bond franchise is keeping everything current in place, including Craig. "It's worked so well four times, let's do more" type of argument.
That. Jacket.
I'm more a fan than you of the 20+ Bond movies that are not SF, and I expect SP to be the end of the visits to the Bond museum, that the next one after will bring something less crowd-pleasing and more of something de genre.
What is the problem with Skyfall and SPECTRE?
Personally, and I know not all will agree, I take this approach as a sign of confidence in SP that a film from a franchise known for its action and adventure for 53 years can present itself without those trademark elements and still garner quite positive reactions.
It also allows SP to distinguish itself a bit more from these other action films from 2015 (which look good to me) Now how this plays out at the box office is anyone's guess, but I think in the end, if SP is a quality Bond movie, it should find a very healthy amount of film goers come later this year and early 2016 when it opens in all oversees markets.
The action will be there. They may just be holding it back once all the summer blockbusters pass and then start showing us the real money shots of action, some of which probably have not even been fully edited yet.
I actually look as much forward to what Mendes does with the non action scenes as I do with the big set pieces.
So far, from all the trailers that have come out, I like the SP one (particularly the first teaser that introduced Waltz and Christensen) best. Quite dark with some foreboding and very well delivered dialogue.
The action will be there this time, I'm sure of it, and even if it isn't up to the levels of MI or the other films, that won't bother me really. Bond is differentiating itself in other areas for me these days (atmosphere, dialogue, cinematography, acting etc. etc.). I think the biggest coup with SP was getting Hoyte Van Hoytema - just like getting Deakins for SF. The cinematography/atmosphere is critical to Bond.
The one thing I'm hoping is up to par, and that will be the 'icing on the cake' for me, is the score.
Absolutely! The one area I was most interested in seeing how they followed up SF was in its cinematography. And after Deakins opted out I couldn't think of the right person. Then, someone here mentioned Hoytema, and after seeing his films when he was announced, I was really happy. And so far the footage hasn't let me down. And I'm sure the polished final product will look even better.
As for Newman, I have always been a huge fan of many of his scores and my real hope for SP is just a couple more uses of the Bond theme than SF.
Actually that's exactly the same text previously published from Studio Cine Live. Unfortunately, no adds in this release:

Also it looks like we can put those Arctic Monkey rumours to bed:

=D>
As for Sam Smith, I actually don't care who's singing the theme just so long someone has been selected already and can coordinate with Newman to create a much needed thematic score.
