Yeah, would be cool. Apparently the spot is directed by Kleinmann.
Your answer would be in the Sony leaks....

Yes, probably sometime this week. On the stunts.
You know, I'm presently domiciled in China. Skyfall wasn't released in China until late January 2013 because the government likes to protect local productions and this will probably be the case for SPECTRE too. I can't get time off to go on holiday to another country in which to see the film until January either (the film most likely won't be screening in cinemas in most countries by this time either anyway) so I'm screwed both ways. :) Currently, China hasn't even been listed in the list of international release dates. I most likely won't see SPECTRE until almost 3 months after it has been released in The UK. LOL.
Would it be okay to have a non spoiler thread for SPECTRE reviews?
Although I'm seeing it on November 5th so it's not all bad :)
There's going to need to be a very self disciplined thread for this to work. Maybe a rating out of 10 is about as far as this can go with a single word reaction!? Anything more is probably expecting much and there'd be little point having a column chock full of blue spoiler boxes ?
Still, I can guess those that will say "11/10 awesome" :D
Fingers crossed it's today. The stunts video blog is one of my favourites, hopefully there's some more footage of Bond vs Hinx in this one..
It will be difficult yes. Trying to get people to say 'This is a great film, Craig was great, the pacing was great, the music was..ok, ' etc without giving any plot points away will probably be impossible. So hopefully if we have a Review and Discussion thread for people who have seen the film, with a spoiler alert in the title, it will be down to everyone else to be strong and avoid the thread.
:-O
I'm unfortunate to currently be living in Shanghai. ;) No, it's most interesting and enjoyable here but China aint movie friendly in terms of non Chinese film flicks. Mission Impossible 5 only just came out recently. :)
Thanks @NicNac. I suppose if people were to remember to hide the spoilers that this would be okay, but unfortunately this doesn't always happen.
A voting poll where people rate the movie out of 10 would be good too.
Once the movie is out it's mostly up to people themselves what they read, of course. Personally I always consider reviews anywhere to be potentially spoilerish, so I tend to avoid reading reviews anyway.
I agree; the onus is on the reader not to be spoiled, really (given that people don't talk about the leaks/plot points in areas they're not supposed to). For myself, I want to go into the film having seen no footage at all, so I consider footage from the teasers/trailers to be spoilers, and it is of course highly unreasonable to expect people in the forums not to talk about officially released material so I tread carefully and take responsibility for not being spoiled myself.
EDIT: So I scroll down quickly from the material shown on this very page ;)
“I thought long and hard about it, and if anything could have pulled me out of retirement it would have been an Indiana Jones film. I love working with Steven and George, and it goes without saying that it is an honor to have Harrison as my son,” the 76-year-old Scottish actor declared. “But in the end, retirement is just too damned much fun.”

"... a smouldering, gun-toting turn as Agent Fields, soon revealed as the iconic Moneypenny..." Weird.
With respect, you are clearly disturbingly obsessed with Daniel Craig so I doubt you'll believe anything short of an official announcement (if that). You certainly don't seem to believe him - he just recently said that he wasn't going to do another one. Yes, he qualified that with a "but we'll see"; but it seems a wilful act of confirmation bias to disregard the solid statement "no" for the vague statement "we'll see".
And please - can you and fellow drama queen mcdonbb leave out the "disloyal" crap? Mendes isn't a friend of mine and I don't work for EON. If he really wanted it kept quiet he wouldn't have mentioned it - we'd never met before and I made no attempt to solicit the information. You both need to get a life; preferably one in which tidbits of info about a James Bond movie haven't assumed the importance of state secrets.
I've said what I know - detailed in full in the SPECTRE leaks thread (along with other info that has been confirmed as true, which I notice neither of you ever mention) and now I've told you the source. Believe it or don't; I really don't care. I'll continue to believe it until I see some convincing sign that something's changed. And up till now, I've not seen any, barring the rather feeble ambiguities that I would expect from EON.
Outside the fan world, there are so many misconceptions about bond movies: Vesper was Moneypenny, Bond got married twice, etc.
Craig might be back, but it seems, even from his own comments, he might be over with Bond.
