Apart from the high pitched notes, the song is pretty damn good. And he sticks with you, like SF did.

Also keep in mind - this is sure to get an even earlier release digitally (iTunes etc) - sometime mid January. Pretty much every major film now has an early digital release a few weeks before DVD/BD.

For instance, I could never tell that the mouse in Tangier was CGI. Also the biggest surprise is that the Tangier scenes were actually filmed in Rome!
Best Actor In An Action Movie
Daniel Craig – Spectre
Tom Cruise – Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation
Tom Hardy – Mad Max: Fury Road
Chris Pratt – Jurassic World
Paul Rudd – Ant-Man
Sam Smith also nominated for Writing's on the wall
Thats because EoN ponied up for some proper cgi this time. Looking in the credits, ILM contributed cg work.
He won in 2012 for SF, but considering he didnt bother to show up, even though, he was in LA, its not an award, that means anything to him and in a way, hes right. Its the other category, that is about acting.
£300 Million? I thought it was a £200 Million budget?
No, you're correct, but £200 million equates to $300 million U.S. dollars.
In the same initial script, M got killed, Moneypenny was fired and Bond had to go rogue!
This finally solves the mystery of the Palenque archaeological site story, where a confusing article hinted that actual filming would take place there. In actuality, the city was used only as a space for rehearsals of the helicopter stunts before the crew moved to Mexico City.
Thunder, you are becoming more pleasant by the post. Woohoo..n
Amen to that......
My first viewing of SP was over-ridden somewhat by thinking "why am i hearing SF music cuts" all the way through......
James Bond Villain Placed Drill in Wrong Area, Neurosurgeon Says
James Bond's villain in the latest 007 film, Spectre, could use a lesson in neuroanatomy, a Toronto neurosurgeon says.
In a scene recorded in a Morroccan desert, Ernst Stavro Blofeld, played by Christoph Waltz, tortures Bond using restraints and a head clamp fused with a robotic drill. The goal is to inflict pain and erase 007's memory bank of faces.
But Blofeld didn't have his brain anatomy down and could have likely killed Daniel Craig's character instead, Dr. Michael Cusimano of St. Michael's Hospital, says in a letter published in this week's issue of the journal Nature.
Aiming to erase Bond's memory of faces, the villain correctly intends to drill into the lateral fusiform gyrus, an area of the brain responsible for recognizing faces, Cusimano said. But in practice, the drill was placed in the wrong area, aiming for the neck instead of the brain.
"Whereas the drill should have been aimed just in front of 007's ear, it was directed below the mastoid process under and behind his left ear," Cusimano wrote.
It likely would have triggered a stroke or massive hemorrhage, he said.
In a draft of the letter, Cusimano said he was "spellbound" watching the film in a packed theatre, but his enjoyment was somewhat marred by the blunder.
"I laughed," he recalled in an interview. "I think people around me kind of looked at me and were wondering why I was laughing because it's a pretty tense part of the movie."
Cusimano,a professor of neurosurgery, education and public health, said he's seen all the Bond films and says he enjoys the music, locations and special effects.
Cusimano added it's theoretically possible to impair facial recognition by targeting the lateral fusiform gyrus. He noted there are documented cases of injury, such as strokes, leading to brain conditions that cause "face blindness," or prosopagnosia.
The neurosurgeon said he would happily offer his neurosurgery expertise to Hollywood filmmakers next time, and hopes people get a laugh out of the letter.
It's still a great shot IMO. Plus that is a special rather than visual effect.
