  • Wow. What a weirdly specific thing for Baz to talk about/spoil -- but I'm loving it. Sounds like a classic Bond plot is shaping up!
  • If the Atlantic Ocean Road and Rauma both end up in Bond 25 as MI6 is reporting, that's more than enough scenery to keep me happy.
  • I'll be a bit gutted now if some of these landscapes aren't in the film. What a missed opportunity to shoot in one of the world's most beautiful and distinctly Bond-ian countries, if it doesn't come to pass.

  • I'm also no doctor, but I've had some significant experience with ankle injuries and the wording of the EON release sounds a bit familiar. I'd certainly lean toward the guess that the surgery's purpose is more about resolving "damage" vs "injury"…
  • I wouldn't ever begrudge others having their own opinions. And there are certainly elements of the Bond franchise that some love, which don't work for me at all. But if there's a stage of Bond fandom where you don't love the DB5 as an icon and ar…
  • Am I missing something? I'm not seeing any (Spoiler) when I scroll through the clips.
  • Yes, he's in phenomenal shape. Particularly for a man who's north of 50. Any suggestion otherwise is pleasant nonsense.

  • Seeing these photos from the Jamaican shoot has brought a lot of warmth to my heart (and not just literally!) Just the notion of seeing a new Bond in production, and knowing that it's for some sequence/story section that's so utterly steeped in F…

  • Yes! So happy to hear they're returning and bringing those stunning landscapes into the film. This has the potential to be the most beautifully shot and visually engaging Bond film in a long time -- and that's saying something, because I think Craig…

  • Red_Snow wrote: » https://twitter.com/Furuta_Jamaica/status/1126637313407188997 Second unit filming? We've seen looks at that before, haven't we? (Spoiler)
  • My first reaction was to be very worried. Baz is Baz, he's certainly been -- as someone said -- a reliable conduit of information, even in this production. But this is just such an unnecessarily targeted almost-hit piece against EON and, somewhat…

  • My word, that's retro indeed. Even though we can't tell very much. I'm imagining a scene played for dark laughs where Bond's trying for his dinner with the spear gun, keeps missing, and eventually just says 'screw it' -- and uses the pistol inste…
