    Another old flame is M but why would they bury her there?
    Why would Lynd be buried there?

    There’s no logic reason as far as we know. But still if they want to come full circle with CR she seems the most poignant choice, from an emotional standpoint.

    It would make more sense if it was Lucia. We don't know what happened to her, and she is italian.

    Vesper died in Italy, even if quite far from Matera. Maybe Bond spent some time with her in Matera during their Italy trip and wants to come back. Sounds like a stretch, I don’t know. Lucia is Italian, true, but why paying homage to her? After they spent just a night together? Weird.

    Does "visiting an old flame" have to mean he's there to mourn?

    If Lucia is dead, wouldn't she be burried next to her husband?

    And if Bond gets ambushed at the cemetary, it has to be someone they knew he would visit, which circles back to Vesper ... unless they are after Swann and Mr. White is buried there (unlikely).

    Because he pretty much guaranteed her safety, after she spilled the beans, telling him the location of the SPECTRE meeting? She's a loose end, and a tombstone with her name on it, is a nice way of tying things up.

    She carries no narrative weight.

    She does, if Bond visiting her grave, is what leads SPECTRE to find Bond, because they have her grave under surveillance. How many casual moviegoers remember Vesper Lynd?

    It could also be Swann. Everyone is assuming that it takes place in the beginning. But if Swann dies there, it would make sense for Bond to visit the grave by the end of the movie.

    1. Yes, we all saw SP and we saw what Lucia did. Plus, Vesper is universally regarded as the Craig era most beloved and well-known Bond girl. Many people remember her. Definitely more than Lucia. Beside that I’m not sure about Vesper, as I said before, but Bond spending time to visit Lucia’s grave during a vacation with Madeleine feels just out of place. Don’t forget that also Vesper was affiliated to SP, so your idea could work as well.

    2. In the bridge scene Bond wears the same clothes than during the car chase. Since the cemetery is one minute by walk from the bridge the supposed “visiting an old flame” scene is logically going to take place in the PTS while Madeleine is alive.

    You think Lucia carries more narrative weight than Vesper? Ok.

    Every time I scroll through comments there’s always the same mindless brain fart from you. You’re consistent, I’ll give you that.

    You Might want to get your eyes checked, it’s a reasonable question. I can explain why.

    Guys, with no desire to do so, you're probably feeding the (bad) press. In no time at all there will be headlines like "Bond film made by doubles". "Daniel Craig does Bond without being there", and so on and so on. Careful.

    No more filming today then?

    Why would they have a grave under surveillance? More likely that they have Bond under surveillance.

    My point is Craig did a lot of the CR construction chase and did the skyfall train fight all on his own at 30 mph on top of a train. No doubles. He hadn’t done a single stunt yet from what we’ve seen.

    The grave in the photo appears to be at least 10-15 years old. If not much older.

    If it indeed is the one Bond visits, it appears to be that of a dark haired woman.

    Well it definitely doesn’t look like the grave of someone who died inbetween SP and NTTD...

    Just talked to the man who took the photo of the grave!!! He told me the following...

    “😁 No it is not Vesper. Maria Rabaioli Lipparini 😒 And Mattoli”

    What does that mean? Are those names or are they translated to something? I’m an American in Texas so a little confused..

    I asked him if those were new characters and he responded...

    “Don’t know, only saw that grave. Many graves were present could be some random names made up for the set piece.”

    The wedding will be at the end of the movie.

    For Terminator: Genisys, I worked on set for days on two major action sequences, one being the Golden Gate Bridge scene; at no time was the primary cast present.

    Yes, too casual for a wedding, especially for a groom.

    Question: How come Billy Magnussen still have no character name listed? I get it why they wanna keep Malik's name a secret, but Billys? Do we even know anything about his character? CIA? Thug? The scientist? Bond's secret lover? LOL

    Your point is pointless since what we've seen is basically zero. He could've shot a lot of stunts at Pinewood and Jamaica as far as we know. Plus the man is 50 now and he's no Tom Cruise.

    So Bond is not goin to die in a FRWL fashion. This confirms that yes, Italy won't feature just for the PTS.

    So how about the news regarding the grave of Bond's old flame? There must be a reason why Bond goes to a cemetery.
