  • Sadly the live launch was very amateurish and no one seemed to have been briefed on what they should say or have given the whole thing much thought. So it didn't cast Craig in a very positive light. But again all that really matters is the quality o…

  • I hope those aren't the rushes! Great news if they are actually shooting in Port Antonio town tho. It's one of the most friendly and atmospheric Jamaican towns. Still has a bit of the old school charm left.
  • There we go. All sounds good to me.
  • "Undertaker's Wind" Sorry is this some kind of joke? It sounds like a professional ailment - perhaps related to inhaling too much formaldehyde.

  • Wonder if the second unit will be capturing any carnival footage in Kingston? http://jamaica-gleaner.com/article/news/20190427/traffic-changes-carnival-road-marches-tomorrow I hope Bond is seen reading the Gleaner - would be a nice link back t…

  • Fair points regarding the quality. Production values and aspirations for the films have definitely improved massively. The writing has been the Achilles heel though. Mainly pretty poor. I disagree about the wrist slashing comments. Deeply unprofe…

  • Well the Sun piece is made up garbage most likely. But the NYP article is opinion and not entirely badly argued either IMO.
  • FoxRox wrote: » https://nypost.com/2019/04/27/how-whiney-daniel-craig-killed-james-bond/ It just doesn't let up. Wow. Hard hitting. Worth noting that the NYP is (like the Sun) another Rupert Murdoch outlet. His papers and TV outlets a…
  • Yeah sounds like a load of nonsense based on fake rumours and half of it just made up for the help of it. Even if it were true I wonder if there'd be time to reshoot those scenes this winter anyway.
  • Maybe he's a rooky learning from Felix and there are parallels/competition with the Nomi character.
  • Yep Dencik is a great choice. He's brilliant. I really sense that quite a large chunk of the film is going to be set in Jamaica and they want it to have a solidly Jamaican flavour. Dr No is largely set in Jamaica and it works well. The country ho…
  • I'd have been happy to see David Harbour return as Gregg Beam.

  • jake24 wrote: » If Bond is retired in Jamaica with Madeleine, I'm not sure if it makes sense for Armas to have scenes there. Could the cast simply be staying in Port Antonio before flying back home? Possible I suppose.
  • Well they're staying in Port Antonio which suggests they are filming nearby in my opinion. Trident Hotel is a good 2 hr drive from Goldeneye at least. I can't see why they'd be staying in Port Antonio if they weren't using locations there. It's not …
  • Possible locations they might be using nearby are this insane house directly next to the Trident Hotel - used as a wedding venue but would make a brilliant villain's hangout. https://www.thetridentcastle.com Also San San beach, Frenchmans Cove…

  • I wouldn't describe it as hedonism - more living in the moment and appreciating the finer things in life. Also yes there's a celebration of the exotic in the best Bond films. And a touch of the weird and surreal. I agree that the Craig era has subt…
