    I haven’t heard too many guesses on where the third act and ending takes place or what that will consist of.

    I'm confused. The same recording has two scene numbers?

    This must be the most complex action sequence for a Bond-film in a long time. There has to be executed lots of editing, simply because there is so many doubling going on. I remember that during pre-production of CR, Daniel Craig was taking lots of car racing training on Silverstone.

    In any case, this car chase better has to be as tight and memorable as other classic car chases.

    The final showdown I think it will happen at Malek mansion in Norway (the castle-like mansion filmed in Scotland) which will be part of a bigger sequence involving the Atlantic Road chase and some helicopter stunts.

    They never filmed at or in the mansion, but used its private roads as the continuation of the Norway car chase.

    A-roll and B-roll.

    We don’t know that for sure. They could’ve use the mansion for exterior shots and then filmed the interior at Pinewood. Just like they did with the Blenheim Palace in SP.

    A-roll and B-roll.

    Surely, they are not shooting B-roll with an IMAX camera…………….

    I think the odd numbering may have something to do with IMAX. If anything the above photo confirms it. I don’t really know much about IMAX, but there are clearly two IMAX cameras attached to a rig on the AM.

    I’m sure that some of the bigger fans of the format such as @antovolk can help explain a little more than I can.

    I assume thy are ordering the IMAX shots in a different order from the other sequences. Hence why the numbers are difficult to keep track of.

    Camera to the right is not an IMAX cam by closer look. But I'm not 100% sure. Another possibility is that they are using the same exact shots twice, just from two different angles at two seperate times during the chase.

    Is that a screen in the middle of the hood, to help the driver?
    Or something else entirely?

    LED lighting, to light up their faces when driving against the sun for example.

    That's correct for yesterday.

    They also filmed with one genuine Aston Martin yesterday.

    The amount of time and effort that goes into putting sequences like these in any film of this type always amazes me.

    Sorry for the confusion. There’s a very simple explanation really, I just had the wrong scene on the slate. Honestly I quite like it, it would be a rather boring virgin pap if I’d have gotten it spot on anyway right?

    If this is genuine I'd like it very much :) Imagine the confusion you'll give to the editor when he has to insert a close-up of Bond in a bike chase but finds a shot of him behind the steering wheel for this scene number ;)

    Btw, you're the one on the left? I guess 45 is not only the number on the right, but also the right one

    We've already established that Matera is scene 19-50s, likely with some location jumping in between.

    It'd be interesting to see where the fight comes in the overall sequence. We know it's not the end...

    I'd say, Bond visits Vesper's grave on his own so he can quietly and privately have closure so he can finally move on with his new life. Madeleine is alone back at the hotel. The bomb goes off. Bond, injured and bloody, races to get back to Madeleine before she is in danger. He's forced to jump from the bridge (as per the stunt) and he scrambles back into the town while being pursued by the motorbike rider. Bond ambushes the bike in the streets - the fight scene - Bond speeds off on the bike, riding up and down the narrow lanes and steps, and he does a high bike jump to land on the hotel balcony. He breaks into the hotel room and finds a startled Madeleine. They rush to get to the DB5. Jump into the car to escape, but then the cars and other bike riders chase them. I suspect the end of the chase will be on the coastal road which has been established (in opening scenes set the day before) to be close to the town.

    1. Graveyard
    2. Bond runs toward bridge, while the evil-doers are closing in. He jumps
    3. He runs. Evil-doer on bike chases him
    4. Bond hides. Knocks evil-doer off the bike
    5. Fistfight. Bond loses his tie. Steals bike
    6. Bond on bike races through Matera, trying to get to the hotel-room
    7. Hotelroom. Just in time to pickup Swann before the room explodes.
    8. Both in the Aston Martin. Now being chased by cars, where 1st evildoer who lost his bike is now a passenger. Also a 2nd bike joins the chase.
    9. Chase ends with Bond escaping and Swann either dead, missing or captured

    Yes, good point about the hotel explosion. So the Vesper grave blows up. Bond gets phone call warning him the hotel room, where he has left Madeleine, has a bomb hidden in it or nearby, so now Bond has to race back to the town to save her (assuming her phone etc. is blocked so he can't call and warn her) - we see Bond running from cemetery, but he's then trapped on the bridge by the bike rider and the car at either end, so he jumps...

    I think the night before, when Bond and Madeleine arrive in the town, he gets suspicious they are being watched (from those pics on the steps), but Maddy tries to calm and relax him and he kisses her to reassure her he's ok.

    Scenes 19-50s? Eh, how did you decide that? I think the earliest Matera clapperboard we've seen is for scene 37, which would be 26 minutes. Norway is scene 15K, which is about 11 minutes. Where did you get scene 19 from? What clapperboard is that?

    Or Bond finds Madeleine in the street (as we saw him kissing her and her seemingly surprised) and they get in the DB5 and they finally get back to the hotel after the car chase ends and Madeleine goes in to get their stuff and kaboom, she's dead.

    The scene I watched here in Matera two days ago. Bond and Swann arriving at their hotel entrance with the hotel staff carrying their luggage in after them. Scene 19.
