The second image isn't Bond, they didn't film in the Paddock Lot area. This shows where they filmed: https://www.pinewoodgroup.com/pinewood-today/credits/no-time-to-die There's also one of those wind tunnel things in the second image which implies sky diving/falling but that must be for a different film too. I also think the helicopter in the 1st image looks a bit like the Black Widow helicopter possibly the right sort of windows at the front and two things on the roof.
When you drove past the studio there was a round looking set you could see from the road that was next to the Cuba set (North Lot) so maybe there is a round structured building in the film but it's not the one in that aerial view.
Yeah, Everything about NNTD looks Spectacular. But one thing Bond fans deserve, is the frequent use & full blast of the Bond theme when Craig does something exceptionally Bondian.
Interesting stuff! I didn’t realise Pinewood said which films used which facilities.
It is interesting, it looks like NTTD took up most of the Northern section of the studio and the two big stages. The detailed list of what filmed where is interesting but the precise details don't go back that far. Also trawling through the list of films is not fun (unless you pick a year, then it's easier), however you can just type the film name after credits/ in the url for other films of interest. (If you're not getting the film you want try sticking -james-bond at the end).
Could you tell us what something "exceptionally" Bondian is according to you?
:-?
Ok, I used 'Exceptionally Bondian' coz it's the Craig era where strong usage of the bond theme is lacking in action scenes(At least we know why the theme was absent in Casino Royale)It's something that was ever present in the Brosnan era. E.g in The world is not enough when he escapes from the swiss bank, the bond theme is done in such a way that it fits in with Brosnan's gestures & movements. Not saying Craig hasn't done anything exceptional bondian, I just feel he deserves the full blown bond theme in his action scenes in NTTD. Who knows? Maybe if the bond theme was used fully in SPECTRE during the Rome car chase, it would have gone well with Craig's serious gestures to match with his slick driving of the Aston Martin even if the car chase wasn't as gritty as the one in Quantum Of Solace. Oh, and I correct myself with my previous No Time To Die Abbreviation....my mistake
Makes me think of the mask from the cabin sequence.
Indeed, this does look like that mask.
And we already know that he "won't look like his usual" self...
Hmm...
I only watched it a month ago.
Yep.
Is it possible to work out which films were shooting at the same time?
Yeah that's what I thought of! :)
Yep:
Case closed
Thanks, interesting stuff.
Yeah, true....weaving the title song into the score is also a very bondian thing
Exactly my thoughts! Arnold is undoubtly very talented composer, but his Brosnan-era scores were pretty lazy IMO. Overusing Bond theme in that period was so tiring for me. However, forcing him to avoid that in Casino Royale resulted in great, fresh and classy soundtrack. CR also proved that great Bond soundtrack can be achieved with almost no Bond theme.
My feelings exactly. Besides, we've had too much clowns this year with IT and Joker. Enough is enough. I want some originality.
