Also a bin lorry driving scene too.
Who said that?
Bond would batter that mediocrity
'kingsman'
Do one.
get moneypenny behind her desk and out of the field. M three scenes no more. Bond smoking turkish cigarettes and drunk by lunch time.
that's what kids want these days
Obv not going to happen, but a ‚getting drunk‘ mechanic in this would be hilarious. And in true Bond fashion he’d only get more powerful the more he drinks.
Or maybe, since this is an origin, he first has to learn to hold his liquor.
Health items are vodka, champagne is body armour...
Be a great commercial opportunity. Guinness literally giving you strength, instead of anusache.
There could be a level in which Bond awakens unawares about the evening previous. There's a girl in his bed. Is it the consul's daughter he was bound to protect? The baddy's doll? Some tart? Both?
Anyway, Bond, smoking his fourth Turkish cigarette of the morning, has to get out the door without being heard. Or you can execute her GTA style.
What bugs me is that the game is not accurately depicted. The chess board is not set up correctly (the bottom left corners of each player, a1 and h8, are always black), something that never happens in real gaming, and the captured pieces next to the guy with the ring on his finger would be white ones, not black. [edit: I first thought this was Bond, but Calvin Dyson observed correctly that it might possibly be a Spectre-like operative].
We know that the game from FRWL is based on a real game (Spassky vs. Bronstein, 1960) and since this scene kind of emulates that famous setting from FRWL, I would have hoped that a little more thought had been invested in this. The above analysis shows that Black's last move and White's position are unbelievably bad for such a setting. Another missed opportunity to depict a realistic chess game.
Very well spotted @zebrafish . I like a game of chess myself, though wouldn't consider myself an expert in a million years. Still though, I enjoy an occasional game. Haven't played in a while though, I do not have many chess-playing mates I'm afraid...
I'd love that :)
Interesting to see the partners. Maybe a Leica camera gadget for 007?
Orlebar Brown togs as well.
Those are some… shockingly bad misses by someone putting together a fictional chess scene. I mean, the correct/incorrect board orientation is such a trope nowadays even for non-chessplayers, it’s pretty crazy they didn’t get that right. As is what colour of captured pieces you would have by your side.
Hopefully one of those things they get to clean up after trailer feedback, if this is a major scene in the game.
Could do without such rampant product placement.
I know, I know, it's Bond but still, it's just unnecessary at this point. Bond is an established box-office phenomenon. Just no need.
Think the look is all wrong, to be honest.
They'd suggest 'ah, but Craig' but Craig looks the damnably handsome type who would slit your throat.
Where's Bond in the pic? Is he the one wearing a jacket with lifted up collars?
Now I love her even more, please invite this woman back after B25 Amazon. :D
Yeah, he’d be the guy in the front right.
It does seem like these are the 00s. On the one hand, the marketing material all indicate that the 00 section is being revived and this is a kind of „first class“ situation (Kingsman?!). Lennie James‘ character seems to be their main instructor/programme head. On the other hand, it is clearly indicated that 009 is the (a?) villian. So is that someone from that class? Or is he the reason the Section was retired in the first place? Are they 00s at this point or do they only ‚earn their number‘ towards the end of the game?
Questions inside questions.
Let's be brutally honest, he looks a bit dim. Too warm and charming - nice guy face like Jason Bateman. But, he's only late twenties, not a killer persona yet.
Someone will turn all the cut scenes into mini movie.
Aye, midgame he turns into Patrick, not Jason, Bateman
