On the other hand, if you don't ask you risk the potential of missing a quote like the one Pat Riley, then the coach of the Los Angeles Lakers gave, guaranteeing the team would be in the NBA finals the next year. The Lakers did indeed win the next year. When the question came up again at that time, Magic Johnson (playfully) stopped Riley from talking.
One can see how much damage those SonyLeaks have caused. Most likely not so much to the (box office) success of "SPECTRE". But it did create a narrative with regard to Daniel's successor. And obviously Daniel Craig says to all of these journalists that he doesn't give a 'fuck'. But he's human. And don't tell me when he goes to bed after an insane day of shooting, he doesn't think at least for a second about all these successor rumours and if it's perhaps better to step down in favor of the 'greater good'. In the end 'it' does make people uncertain.
On top of that, it saddens me that many so called journalists don't do proper research anymore. Instead, it's 'given' to them by criminals/hackers. Wonderful stuff off course these SonyLeaks. But it does make the profession more lame if you ask me. And perhaps using those leaks brings about some ethical questions about when journalists should use criminally obtained source material or not.
All I can hope for is that "SPECTRE" will be an even bigger critical success as its predecessors "Casino Royale" and "SkyFall". In the end the longlasting negative repercussions will fade away.... And for me right, I just hope some really interesting, original, unique questions are being aimed at the man who plays 007 right now. What about: "Was there actually some good, creative advice from some loyal Craig-fans that you as a co-producer of "SPECTRE" really could use? Or...don't you care at all about the more positive fans; the fans who admire you?"
That would be horrible, then better someone new who really loves to play the role :(
I'd do a couple of films for the money, if the money is good.
Subscriber edition came today so cover will be different on the shelves of newsagents - looks a really good relevant read on the DB10 and C-X75
I have all three cars from Die Another Day in my garage...
...well ok, glass cabinet :))
models I mean, car models not fashion models...
Friday and yes

CULVER CITY, Calif., Oct. 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Albert R. Broccoli's EON Productions, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios and Sony Pictures Entertainment are delighted to announce that Mexico City will host the Premiere of the Americas for the 24th James Bond adventure SPECTRE on Monday, November 2.
The Premiere of the Americas will follow the World Premiere in London and marks the first time that Mexico has hosted an international James Bond premiere. The date coincides with the colourful Day of the Dead festivities across Mexico in celebration of the film's spectacular opening sequence set in Mexico City.
Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli commented, "We owe our magnificent Day of the Dead opening sequence, shot in Mexico City, to the expert craftsmanship of our wonderful British and Mexican crews. With 2015 being the Year of Mexico in the UK and the Year of the UK in Mexico, it is fitting that the Premiere of the Americas will take place in Mexico City."

Love and respect for Daniel Craig, though, he's incredible to watch and I've thoroughly loved his films. :)
I also very much agree with @Gustav_Graves; the Sony leaks seems to have cocked things up a bit more than is ideal. :/
Therefore the press or the leaks to blame for the media constantly bringing up possible successors or asking if Craig is done is a bit shortsighted.
If be very surprised if he didn't do at least one more. His Bond is one of the most bankable characters on earth right now)
The big problem is that your wife isn't giving interviews with her comments pulled into a million press outlets. It's Craig's job to do press, and he knows that the one question he'll get is will he do another Bond. He's given too many interviews to have blown this question so badly.
=)) I thought as much, but good you cleared that up
I would rather they have the film completely done and fully polished and let the reviewers see it then (even if it is the 21st) because SP will have a bit easier time luring filmgoers back into theaters after SF than SF did after QoS (which I really like btw) and is already seeing the beginning of a massive markerting campaign: #1 song in Britain, great final trailer, tv spots, magazine articles, et.
This can all be seen as confidence in that they know the film will do great whether it has early reviews or later ones. I feel they felt they needed a bit of good buzz on SF after a 4 year hiatus to get the series back on track. Especially for the 50th anniversary and it being Mendes' first time as an unproven Bond director.
And SP is so massive I think they will be getting it finished just in the knick of time. Says above in the article with Mendes that as of late Sept. they still had about three weeks to finish mixing the sound, which would put its final completion at about the 21st. Whereas with SF was finished a bit earlier for screenings.
Plus it is still 4 full weeks befor it opens in the US.
As I said many times, Mexico will be a pivotal country for its box office success. The country got largely ignored during the promotion of "SkyFall", but this time around I think we can expect huge huge box office figures from Mexico :-).
Great news I think. It reminds me of when "Moonraker" and "A View To A Kill" got a prime premiere date in the USA.
This is random but have they already filmed the title sequence yet?
You mean the Daniel Klienman titles to go with WOTW?
I imagine its either all done or they're putting the finishing touches to it.
