    I'm pretty sure it's online access in the box sets too. At least in the UK ones @Gustav_Graves.

    Really annoyed the Skyfall stellbook isn't available in the UK...would've picked it up in.a heartbeat.

    Watching. Don't care what anyone says, DA's score alone elevates this way above SF. Newman needs to up his game in SP.

    Firmly disagree. As one can read in the "Bond Music Score Contest", Arnold's best score still is "TND". A film like "CR" needed to have a score that could really compete with Barry's "OHMSS". It didn't happen...by far. Good score, but as forgettable as many other Arnold scores:

    Moreover, been listening to the expanded "Skyfall" score lately, and I think it's a huge improvement over "CR" and "QOS". I really recommend it. Better mixed, tracks are extended. The entire full work that has been recorded, not for sale and mainly send out to the Academy members. Uncut. Some tracks that didn't make the films. Other tracks that did make the film, but not the soundtrack. I really recommend listening it, to prepare for "SPECTRE". It even has the gunbarrel ending in it, as well as a beautiful instrumental version of Paul Epworth's "Skyfall", the album version of Adele's "Skyfall" and the richer orchestrated movie version of Adele's "Skyfall". "Coffins" is a lovely track also:

    You can post as many pictures of the SF album as you want, you missed the point where I said I 'Don't care what anyone says'.

    It's at least better than posting blunt one-sentence statements in which people shamelessly accuse other people of being dumb.

    I didn't call anyone dumb.

    Your behaviour on here sometimes imply that. But it's understandable in a way, as you are a movie professional....

    It's not my fault you made yourself look silly. I made a comment, which a few others agreed with. Leave it at that.

    I think you make yourself look silly at times. If you're such a bloody good movie professional, you should have the 'professional' decency at times to be simply....nicer. You come across as arrogant at times. And that's not only towards me. You belittle other people's personal opinions and write them off as 'silly', while you maintain your own personal opinion about, let's say, movie scores, as factual. Or at least it comes across like that...

    You're planning to buy them? If I were you I would wait to buy the 'old' 50th anniversary box set, which no will go down in price massively.

    But I bought those 9 steelbooks. Love the design. A feast for a fan's eye, especially since the artwork is inspired on the main title designs from Daniel Kleinman/Robert Brownjohn/Maurice Binder/MK12.

    The new 007 steel books and box sets are out today.

    Here's hoping the two SPECTRE featurettes (The Story So Far and The Shadow of SPECTRE) make their way online soon...they aren't on the discs btw it seems, it's online access.

    Yes!! Can't wait!! My German friend Klaus keeps me updated once he receives all 9 steelbooks. Then he sends them to me :-).

    By the way, the featurettes "The Story So Far" and "The Shadow of SPECTRE" are available online for the buyers of those steelbooks ("Neuem Bonusmaterial Online Verfügbar"). The German stickers on the steelbooks mention that. So good news no? ;-):

    But where can you get them in Germany?? Amazon doesn't have it and I can't find any German online stores that have them, very strange. Maybe those German version will only be released at a much later time??

    EDIT sorry found them, apparently they are only selling at Mediamarkt (exclusively) which I find rather stupid. One could think they don't want to make money with that release.
  • I love the NSNA soundtrack. Is it Bondian well not massively but it's a great soundtrack.

    That ad is freaking bloody great!!!! I love it!!!!
    Swimming against the stream (as I seem to do often around here) I loved the new MP from the get-go, even if her casting was clearly politically driven. And I think she has great chemistry with Craig!

    I sure hope she will get some action in Spectre. After that ad she already is my No 2 (a tie with Samantha Bond). Let's see what Spectre will have in store for her. Very excited.

    Totally agree @BondJasonBond006. Loved Samantha Bond too, but Harris is my No. 3 to Maxwell (1) and Bond (2).

    It's probably true, it will be roughy 2 1/2 hours long.
    Which doesn't have to be a good thing necessarily.
    IMO Skyfall was pretty dragging in the 30 minutes between the great PTS and the even greater Shanghai sequence.

    More often I find, that films (not necessarely Bond films, but in general) need more time to build character and atmosphere etc. And the reason, that shorter films have more showings, hence more BO is often not true, if you look at the successful films with a long running time.
    It can go both ways.

    No problem with long films. I have no problem sitting through Lawrence of Arabia, but last time I tried to watch Octopussy I fell asleep (Sorry! :( )

    You're right, it can go both ways. It completely depends on the story. On the one hand you could have a brilliant character piece like Reservoir Dogs clocking in at 99 minutes, or on the other an epic like The Godfather hitting 175 minutes. Both build character and atmosphere superbly. One thing I will say re. run time is that it isn't coincidence most mainstream cinema straddles the two hour mark, it's a relative sweet spot in terms of length that should allow you optimum time for blending character and plot, which is what mainstream cinema is primarily about imo. The further you stray from this the more you have to do in terms of pacing to keep the audience going with you. I find CR pulls this off well, its peaks and troughs seem consistent and it really builds to a superb ending, where I find SF sags a little in the middle and loses a bit of momentum from that point. Hopefully SP will be structured in a way that takes us all along for the full duration.
