@0BradyM0Bondfanatic7 We see that at the beginning with the coffins covered in Union Jack flags. I think it would have been a bit unnecessary to show that, especially as there weren't any civilians injured by the tube crash. You see them all evac…

Skyfall... Severine survives and goes back to London. She releases Silva from the prison, not his laptop, out of blind love for him - her enticing Bond in was all a trap. He then shoots her (gets rid of a loose end) and the film continues as n…

What is the Pre-Titles sequence with the least amount of spoken words? I would guess at either LALD or Spectre, maybe FRWL thinking about it....

Such very sad news. The world has lost a Bond and an icon.

I feel Spectre actors will be featuring a lot in this discussion. Waltz, Seydoux, Bautista and Bellucci... all wasted.

@bondjames The MI-RN bike chase is short but oh so sweet. And I do like the car chase that precedes it. Skyfall had a little bit of a motorbike chase which was pretty cool as well. Especially them driving over the rooftops.

Well, John Logan is responsible for the omnishambles script of Spectre.... so that doesn't inspire hope. He's messed up one major franchise, so how about another... Having seen Covenant, its a lot like Spectre. All spectacle, no substance.

There is only one.... Emily Blunt ;)

@bondjames I agree on the bike chase. A cracking little sequence, I like the overhead shots of them driving over the rooftops with the Helicopter chasing. A decent motorbike chase in the next movie would be good.
-
@SJK91 I can agree with most of that. I have a few issues with TND. I dislike Bond's over hostile first meeting with Carver - he should be investigating Carver and Bond pretty much accuses him there and then, having first met him. I also disli…

@octofinger I'd argue the opposite. More Nine Eyes. Flesh it out more, have it as an actual presence in the movie that hinders Bond's progression.

I'm currently playing Horizon Zero Dawn. There's not much left to be said about the graphics and presentation (playing on PS4 Pro, 1080p) and they are truly incredible. What is equally incredible is the whole world building and story, which is…

I am due another re-watch of Skyfall sometime soon. Whilst I anticipate all new Bond films with a huge fanboy nerd out, Skyfall topped the lot due to the 50th Anniversary, Olympics and a desire to see what was new, especially given it was 4 years af…

The amount of time Bond changes gear in the QoS opening car chase. I feel sorry for his clutch and gearbox.

Does anyone know, in percentage terms, which film features Bond the least. I imagine they're all fairly close...

I thought I would give this thread a bump, seeing as we are now four episodes with the last one coming up this Sunday. I am really enjoying it. A slow burn detective serial with multiple threads and characters whose allegiance isn't always clear.…

I'm trying to work out the timeline of Spectre... Day 1: Mexico City. Day 2: Trip back to London Day 3: Dressing down by M, meeting with Moneypenny (mention's Sciarra's funeral is in 3 days) Day 4: Q Briefing, steals the DB10 Day 5: Leisurely…

Is Skyfall the only titles sequence in which the villain appears (Silva)?
