Spectre has 'biggest ever' opening sequence (Spoilers)

The opening sequence for upcoming James Bond film Spectre is to be the biggest ever, it has been revealed. Bond producer Michael G Wilson revealed details of the sequence, which takes place during Mexico City's Day of the Dead Festival. he revealed the sequence will constitute "the biggest opening sequence we've ever done and "the whole vision that Sam Mendes has come up with is very exciting and amazing," he added. "We've got 1500 extras in Day Of The Dead costumes and make up and we've occupied the centre of Mexico City for days. The 1500 extras will be digitally mulitpled to over 10,000 extras for the Day of the Dead scene

"The only thing that's come close to it was putting on the carnival in Rio in Moonraker, and I think this is a much bigger operation."


The scene, which is currently being filmed in Mexico City, will also include a chase through the parade and a fight within a helicopter

    I'm honestly hoping James Bond gets to duke it out with the giant skeleton we've seen in production shots

    I can't wait to see how they will multiply 10000 extras into the scenes. Will 10000 extras be only multiplied on the square or in the other streets too?

    Another foot chase?

    I was hoping for an escape of some sort. Daniel Craig hasn't had many "how is going to get out this one" type scenarios. (i.e. - Centrifuge - Moore)

    Wait until you see the Rome car chase. There will be a serious "how do i get out of this one"-scenario attached to it ;-).
