These are very nice poster material!! Thank you @chipsticks. It looks like I may not be going to sleep any time soon... lol
happy to keep you awake with good stuff my friend :-bd :))
Like @JCRendle said, you have to upload the images to a host site. imgur.com is convenient. At the top of the imgur.com page, you'll see a button that reads "upload images". Click it and upload the photos from your computer. Then you can share the image links with us.
If you don't want to bother with that, you can jut email them to one of us. Message me if you would rather just do that.
I think many of us are eager to see what they have in store for us in Mexico.
Stop arguing and bringing us down ...go stand in line for MI:5 ...
Usually you just need to take photos of spheres like this so that you can insert/create your CG effects with the right lighting.
but here the cars move very fast so... let's use the cars themselves instead of such spheres, I guess.
I've actually handled such stuff on a movie set :) And plates with crosses made of duct tapes ! This is VFX glamour !
Perhaps when this is renamed the "Spectre no criticism thread" such a comment will be appropriate.

True, of course, but its interestung to see, that its always the same people, who are positive...and negative - continuously. And THAT then leads to the question, is it their way of having fun or is everything just really so lousy...in their opinion. There is a line,and not even a fine one, between realistic, welcome critisism and bitching. Some get that right, other dont. For those, it would be appreciated, if they would just map out their problem once and not try to convince everybody else over several pages. And this is now just generally spoken. Not adressed to anybody specifically. Those, whovtend to do that, know.
You should take and apply your own advice.
Really? As I said many times before I am absolutely sure that the worst case scenario is that Spectre will turn out to be a decent Bond film, and the worst case is that it will be about as good as GoldenEye was. Sam Mendes is one of my 3 favourite directors working today, and he hasn't disappointed me so far.
And to the person who wrote "Stop arguing and bringing us down ...go stand in line for MI:5 ...": Please read my comments again. Thank you!
Well said! It is possible to be positive about something overall, and at the same time criticise certain elements of it. I really don't see why some people need to get enraged when others criticise some aspects of the movie we hear about from news, or see on photos.
Except that we're specifically talking about PanchitoPistoles, and he's definitely not in the 'continuously negative' category. He's very excited about SPECTRE (as am I), and he's read the script. Yet when he brings up something that he doesn't care for and he gets people saying either shut up or leave.
Personally I like the posts that have a more critical eye much more than the ones that just cheer for anything that EON does.
Small continuity errors are even present in the best Bond films.
--> Did someone wept over the fact that in the PTS of "Thunderball" Bond's Aston Martin DB5 was suddenly brand new again, after it got more or less destroyed in "Goldfinger"?
--> Did someone wept over the fact that in "OHMSS" James Bond and Blofeld suddenly suffered from severe memory loss, and forgot that they actually met in "YOLT"?
--> Did someone wept over the fact that in the PTS of "Quantum Of Solace" Bond's Aston Martin DBS suddenly had the possession of a new Aston Martin DBS? It's slightly dubious to call this continuity, but director Marc Forster could have elaborated on this.
--> Did someone wept over the fact that 007 in "Diamonds Are Forever" Tracy's death was actually ignored completely? Compared to "DAF", actually "For Your Eyes Only" feels like the sequel to "OHMSS".
--> Did someone wept over the fact that Q-Branch in "Die Another Day" actually collected all of Bond's gadgets, AND villain's gadgets, somewhere in an abandoned tube station?
My point: I don't like this continuity error that is now present in "SPECTRE". I fully agree with @RC7 that, especially now there's a focus on narrative continuity in the Craig-films, other "items" are victimized for that and are literally out of sink with continuity.
Still, I can easily accept the fact and go on. Because we never really cared about the biggest continuity gaffe in Bond history; the one in "OHMSS". That continuity mistake is actually enhanced more when Bond utters the line "This never happened to the other fella". So if one is very strict and loyal to that piece of "continuity" in "OHMSS", a new person within the Bond narrative universe actually took over Bond's real identity, using James Bond" How f##ked up is that!
Also, Bond is not Star Trek. I've been quite the Trek-fan myself. And one thing that really got me tired was the completely insane, joy-less "continuity guardian apparatus" which was dwelling like a KGB-esque sickness on so many Trek-forums. It also gets the "soul" out of a franchise (which now is clearly the case with "Star Trek"). The "shuttle loss count" in "Star Trek: Voyager" is a good example. In the end you're spiraling yourself down into a moody negative nitpicker, who tends to forget that something like "Star Trek" still is entertainment.
Now this will never happen with Bond. And I'm pretty certain the Aston Martin DB5 in "SPECTRE" will not have that big a role as compared to "Skyfall". For me it still looks like a TND-esque cameo. And there is perhaps a very good narrative explanation for the DB5 being present in "SPECTRE". One that we don't know off yet! Will be difficult yes, but who knows!
And moreover, we do get plentiful continuity from the main narrative of the film. The return of Mr White (CR, QOS), old M's porcelain bulldog (SF), new M's wonderful Bernard Lee-esque office, how QUANTUM got SPECTRE (QOS)....and more. Don't let these continuity errors destroy your fun :-). A continuity error IMO does not affect the entire quality of a film. Otherwise I would be complaining for ages about "OHMSS".
It's not a continuity error
EDIT: the explanation is good and very simple
We will probably see the scenes they filmed with Dave, Daniel and Lucia.
That means we should see the following scenes in the videoblog:
1) Museum of Roman Civilisation - as cemetery
2) Villa Fiorano - It was confirmed that this was filmed, but we never saw any pictures because the Villa is quite a bit far from the city
3) The chase part filmed with cameras mounted on the cars - Corso Vittorio Emanuele II
4) DB10 entrance into Rome
This is what we will see if it comes out tomorrow, as the 2nd unit hasn't yet been wrapped up.
I think we won't see the videoblog tomorrow
I think they will wait for the 2nd unit to finish in Rome - that's on Friday and then get the videoblog online probably next Thursday.
What are your opinions?
I think SPECTRE may be even more divisive. This is going to be hot here in the next years :)

I saw her recently in the US version of the tv show, the Bridge. She was very good in it, and very charismatic. Looking forward to her contributions in SP.
@SkyfallCraig I have edited the post. You should be able to see it now
Ponte Umberto I Bridge

Ponte Principe Amedeo
This is part 10 on the car chase map
The strange thing is the built a path that doesn't exists linking parts that in the reality are not linked between them
I love how dedicated you guys are with those pics of the shoot. Thank you so much for doing that! Still, for me it's getting so that I am developing a slight resentment towards those cars. I log onto this thread every day thinking "yay, 20+ new entries!", and all I get is more cars and discussions about cars. (And now, more cars in London! Joy!)
I'm never getting either an Aston Martin or a Jaguar, that's for sure, even if I win the lottery. :/
