    13 helicopters
    6 pregnancies
    5 hiatuses
    4 weeks of aerial photography
    3 continents
    2 winters
    1 broken ankle

    To the most amazing main unit on the planet, thank you for all of your hard work. That’s a wrap.

    Splinter unit, mount up. Time to shoot the stunt."

    Splinter unit? So there are still stunts, establishing shots, etc to be filmed I guess.

    The director and a few members of the camera crew will go film random shots - location shots, crowd shots, etc., that won't require the work of the other main actors and crew.

    Is 13 helicopters a lot?

    I wonder how many of those pregnancies were planned.

    You´ve got to get through 5 hiatuses somehow.

    What is the budget on this if they have been filming for ten months?

    Only figures I could find online are between $100 million and $150 million, which is about the same ballpark as the budget for Rogue Nation and Ghost Protocol.

    So from about a third to half of specters budget. They definitely seem to know how to get more bang for the buck.

    Would sure love a "bang for the buck" kind of production for Bond 25!

    Can't wait. Cruise knows how to rock a dinner jacket, that's for sure.

    @RogueAgent it was a pleasure knowing you, as you probably will get terminated by @0BradyM0Bondfanatic7 when he learns you still haven't seen it. ;)

    There was a lot of antithunderfingerism there, now that you mention it.

    Agreed. They are very forgettable movies, all of them! Don't hold a candle to Bond!

    The 60s tv show, on the other hand...If they could make something like that next, I am on board.

    I would take the last 3 MI films over the last 5 Bond films any day. It just so happens that Bond has the greater legacy overall, based on the 60's, 70's and 80's entries.

    Have anyone seen the 80's tv show? Any good?

    A good update of the original series, yes.

    I do like the original series. Haven't seen all the seasons, though. Will have to make time for this one too, then!

    The 80s show was fun enough, but not as good as the original. Still better than the Cruise movies.

    I don't get it. 2 of the last 5 Bond films were directed by Sam Mendes, and your name is Mendes4Lyfe...
