    Speaking of Lucia, here's hoping we get some set photos of Craig and Monica at Sciarra's funeral. From what I've heard, Monica starts filming next month, is that true?

    She was supposed to start filming this month iirc.

    Here's a video from Le Figaro/BFMTV (in French). 0:25 - she said: "I'm currently on set in London and after I will go for filming in Italy". She has started in January.

    That sounds about right
    Might also explain the monstrous mountain backdrop that we saw in the photo.

    So... a "nod/reference-collection"?
    Here goes:
    - Day of the dead Festival (Mecico) - TB/MR
    - straightening the cuffs (Mexico) - SF
    - implant into bloodstream (London) - CR
    - Spectre meeting - TB
    - ejectable carseat (Rome) - GF
    - big silent henchman with signature kill - TSWLM/MR
    - a spa/clinic on top of a snowy mountain (Austria) - OHMSS
    - dinner scene and fight on train (Morocco) - FRWL
    - a hidden villains lair (Morocco) - YOLT?

    These were just from the top of my head. There must be more?

    also, MP visiting Bond's flat in middle of night with girl scampering about in her naughties (LALD)

    Bond and girl, feted with room, wardrobe and dinner with villain, from DN

    Q manoevering for room, stalked by villains in crowded cable car, from FYEO ski lift scene.

    and sure Hinx does seem to be in the Oddjob and Jaws tradition. Mute, unnaturally strong killer, with signature kill move.
    Gobinda comes to mind as well, but he didn't have signature move or large profile.

    - ''We have all the time in the world'' (OHMSS)

    - More of a reminder than direct reference: Bond girl abducted and helpless in the back of a vehicle whilst Bond chases (GE tank chase).

    Any thoughts on how will the MI-6 Interior look in SPECTRE

    I'd imagine M's office will still be the same as the last scene in SF. No new director to mix it up and they're still in the same Whitehall building. We'll get a few corridor shots with the CCTV installations.

    In my opinion, they easily could have cast her as Lucia Sciarra, but I just think her as Estrella just won't work. The whole big actor, small character thing just seems a bit of a mess.
    I am not verey sure about that Penelope Cruz issue. I think PC was going to perform Lucia Sciarra, but, for some reason, they finally hired MB.

    Anyone else think this would make a good Blofeld/Irma combo? Christoph Waltz with Cate Blanchett.

    038.jpg

    I also kind of want Blofeld to have a beard. Cause Waltz pulls it off so well.

    I absolutely agree with you @MadeleineSwann, Waltz pulls it off so well with the beard

    it's not from a movie but an advert for Schaffhausen watches Daily Mail article and video - also Emily Blunt, Ewan McGregor and Zhou Xun were also featured in the adverts too.

    Agree that Cate and Christoph will make a great duo :)

    This modern apartment complex is currently being constructed directly across the river from MI6 (http://www.riverwalk.co.uk).

    The scene I saw filmed on the Thames will show Bond and Tanner observing both the destroyed MI6 and C's new intelligence building. I wonder whether Riverwalk will double for C's building or if a lot of CGI creativity will come into play.

    I have a question about the sequences on the bridge. How are they going to film it without too much media attention?

    They are set at night/dawn for starters...so that should help

    Actually if it's set at night could it be possible to create some of it at Pinewood. I mean if they literally built a small section of the bridge?

    I just saw a comment made by @Suivez_ce_parachute regarding product placement and Sony emails.

    Apparently people behind the films have been unhappy about this? Do Broccoli and Wilson hate the products they have to feature in the films?
  • JCRendleJCRendle

    Product placement works when it isn't obvious - almost subliminal - the audience will subconsciously clock it and associate it with Bond, without it being shoved down their throats:-

    eg.





    and several more examples (Currently Sony Vaio and Sony mobile phones seem to be the big thing - for obvious reasons) and the Bond films have taken flack for the amount of product placement featured.

    Obviously PP gives the films a good slice of the budget, and they wouldn't be able to do as much on screen without them - but they have to make sense to the scene and they don't need to be so glaringly obvious that they are there just because they've paid to be there.

    I can understand some people behind the scenes feeling unhappy with how the PP has been handled - though I haven't read the leaked e-mails, so I don't know what context the unhappiness falls under.

    We'll have to wait and see if anything else comes out about this.

    IIRC, the unhappiness re: placement is due to the fact that it's a bit implausible according to BB and Mendes that Bond/MI6 would use Sony phones and gear as opposed to Apple's iPhone for instance which is "the best" and (paraphrasing) 'Bond would use the best'.

    As much as people would knock on it, I love the product placement in House of Cards because it's so organic and realistic as opposed to the usual "oh let's just have everyone use everything of one brand"
