I think she's just there to satisfy some of the Bond fans who demanded to see her in a Bond film. Not that I'm complaining. ;)
Who cares? Look at when Dr.No showed up and he's arguably a top 5 or even 3 villain in the whole series. Hinx as a henchman rightfully needs more screen time than Waltz.
New cliP:

The gunbarrel is back at the beginning. Finally. F****** FINALLY.
My understanding is that the reveal in the film was re-written.
I'll use spoiler tags just in case:
Totally corny.
However, I did get a thrill seeing Bond and Blofeld square up to each other in the finale, whilst Craig utters "You're a hard man to kill Blofeld".
I wanted to ask you does this torture scene happen in Morocco or London?
And finally I wanted to ask you how the finale in London unfolds?
@antovolk @aaron18 , can either of you confirm the above to be rubbish?
Then again, the bit with the cat is a deft touch, connecting new Blofeld with classic screen Blofeld. Maybe the scene won't be so bad.
Might be an improvement on Dec script, if done well.
Doesn't have to be as cornball as described above.
I think we are having our legs pulled a little?
Like I said, I don't know anything about the drafts. I've only seen the finished film.
In the film (once again, even those who have read the scripts may not want to read on):
He later gets the traditional scar, which looks fantastic btw (it comes courtesy of an exploding watch)! He also has a milked out eye a bit like Le Chiffre.
In regards to the other questions:
There is no OHMSS final line. the last piece of dialogue is between Bond and Q. The final shot is Bond and Swann driving off into London with the bond theme blaring out. It's a great ending.
The torture scene is less successful, it's in Morocco and it's groanworthy. I did not like it. The lighting isn't great, the set is bland, Waltz's trousers are weird (waaaaay too much ankle), Craig is overacting to the hilt and the CGI is a little dodgy. Also there are slight overtones of the Steven Moffat Doctor Who-era 'love conquers all' to it. It's shit
Oh my god. I hope that's not true.
The scene in the december script is much better with Blofeld not knowing that he's Blofeld. That was a cool "in your face"scene, when Bond asks him "Who's the cookoo now?"
Hi guys, sorry to bother you @Pierce2Daniel but i have another question. I have read the DEC script, and in the movie (contrary to the script) its M that kills C, right? Is that at the same time Bond confronts ESB in the Mi6 building? thanks
Sounds like the writers got Are You Being Served? and Air Force One ("Get off my plane.") mixed up.
The reviews do mention the torture scene so that is legit....but yeah - the reveal seems like this is combining elements of the October draft (with the 'I killed my father' bit) and the December with the family name. What's a shame really is that it seems that they indeed did keep the familial connection in some respects. What I loved about the version of the reveal in the December script is that it was subversive of previous similar 'big reveals' like Khan/John Harrison in Star Trek Into Darkness, in which it was Bond who did the reveal, saying that Oberhauser was in fact adopted by the Oberhauser family much like Bond, despite him saying that he is the real Oberhauser son, and that his real name in Blofeld.
We'll have to see how that's done on screen but on paper, IMO the December version is more subtle. But, it wouldn't work in the context of the torture scene. It seems the poker game scene has been indeed cut and replaced with that.
That was established at thread creation.
The whole point of the thread is to.suss out as much info as possible pre release!
So thanks for the great spoilers!
After "Now the whole world's gonna know that you died scratching my balls!" Not so much belly laughs but sniggers.
