Or they took it too personal, like some "fans" do. :-c
+1.
Fine, they wanted to reboot Bond with CR, but at the end of the movie where he says "Bond, James Bond" I thought that was pretty much it when it comes to building his character. Not so, unfortunately.
The consequence of them focusing so much on Bond's character, is that it leaves little room for the supporting cast to shine. In 30 years, which Bond villains from the Craig-era, will be regarded up there with the likes of Goldfinger, Scaramanga and Alec Trevelyan? They couldn't even get Blofeld right.
And what do we know that is "100% confirmed" from B25? Blofeld has a cameo & Malek's character is not a "political" terrorist.
How many villains during the Brosnan era are held in high esteem, apart from Madonna?
But this is again too much off topic.
Sean Bean as Alec Trevelyan? I’m not sure I understand what you mean.
The authorization of filming locations in Italy would be from July 15th until October 4th and the prize paid to Matera city is 40,300 euros. Nothing new for the rest excepted it seems confirm that some building have been restored for some scenes.
Oh yes. He was great. I'll give Sophie Marceau some credit too. But the others?
Cary posted new stories. Probably from Scotland.
Looking at it another way, it’ll have taken MI 26 years to make 8, and Bond will have hit 9 in that period. Plus 35 years to get the first TG sequel out, come on.
Looks like it!
Probably only second unit is actually filming now in Scotland. I think Cary continues to scout potential locations in Highlands. Maybe first unit will start filming next week.
That's certainly a possibility. Wouldn't be surprised if we get some more articles with photos and/or a new clapperboard.
Nothing that interesting (or potentially spoiler-y, for that matter), so I only grabbed a few screenshots. The first one is taken from inside a helicopter – presumably flying over the Scottish Highlands. The second is just a forrest location.
Put the screenshots in a spoiler tag because of scrolling.
Hope we get some more shooting pics in the next days. With some cast thrown in for good measure.
No problem, @Univex!
Time will tell, but since Fukunaga is there, you'd expect the cast to be so too.
Actually, only Alec Trevelyan was really good in the Brosnan era, imo. I'd say Renard had potential but overall was disappointing. And I kinda like Elliot Carver but not because the way he was written (evil businessmen are so forgettable), only due to Jonathan Pryce's performance.
I'd say even the weakest of the Craig era villains (Dominic Greene) was at least marginally more interesting than most of the villains of the Brosnan era.
Agreed. Both Alec and Elektra were very strong villains - the former was strongly written and gleefully executed, while the latter managed to be memorable despite some hammy writing thanks to Marceau's strong performance.
Pryce and Stephens, er, yeah - I get that. Not great. Pryce had his moments but was a tad too hammy. But Pierce's era is 2/4 on the villain front, which puts him on an even keel with Craig's era (at least until Malek comes along).
Sophie Marceau was so damn hot during that torture/death part... >:)
And I'm a sucker for French women speaking English.
And TWINE has PB's best performance as Bond...
But uhm... Bond 25.
That's my issue with it: he was build up as the main antagonist and is for all intents and purposes. Whether he's a henchman or not is beside the point: he's the fearsome terrorist that is depicted as bad news from the beginning, he's the one who is meant not to feel pain, he's the nihilistic maniac bent on creating chaos...
Anyway it's off topic. If Malik plays second fiddles to Waltz's Blofeld, then he must nevertheless be his own man and be a genuine menace in and of himself. Something Renard failed to be.
;)
You can condemn the gif spree, but to tell you the truth, it's what this thread and forums needed. And this has been one of the most peaceful afternoon we've seen in weeks. So, here's an exemple of how we can all get along.
PS: although, to be fair, those involved already did get along in the first place ;)
You and me both barry007!! :))
And Bond could be in his blue swim shorts!!!! =))
@Risico007 Very sorry to hear about the job loss. Fingers crossed for bigger and better things! Wishing you all the best.
