  • I know you're posting that as an April Fools Day joke (not a very funny one I have to say) but you do realise those labels would probably have been printed back in February. Bit irrelevant now.
  • Would it matter to you? The financial gains of the people making a movie has never been a consideration to me as to whether I enjoy a film or not. It’s irrelevant. The only way it could affect me is whether it has an impact on making the next one, b…
  • Or is it because only allowing 1 person for every 4 seats in cinema venues would naturally reduce any potential box office takings from people who actually would be willing to take a trip to the cinema in the current climate? I realise that r…
  • I've already left my answer above. Well I'm glad that I'm not as pessimistic as you then. I just thought that NTTD, after all this time and 2 release delays (which some people seem to have forgotten about) before that, was finally set in stone. …
  • Are you here just to leave sarcastic and judgemental comments for me? I think a lot of (if not most) Bond fans would want to see the film now, in cinemas or streaming, so don't single me out just because I'm not content with looking at photos for m…
  • Each to their own, but even if they implemented physical distancing/screen size limits at cinemas during this period, I wouldn't even have considered going. That's fair enough, I understand that. I would do so (if there was a film that I real…
  • We're not owed any apologies True, we're legally not owed any apologies but a less blunt / business like statement with a line along the lines of 'sorry to everyone who's waited for and been excited for this movie, we hope you understand this…
  • "Why can't they just release the film on streaming now!?" is simply not a viable position to have, at the moment. However, I respect those who feel they deserve to see it immediately for selfish reasons despite being someone who wants to actually se…
  • quite frankly its a bit strange to cry about someone poking fun at your opinions when you made it seem like we're the ones at fault for the film's delay! Well what about the two people on here who wrote a letter to EON asking for the film to …
  • To be fair, my previous comment was also sarcastic! Ah I see. Unfortunately from text I sometimes find it hard to see what's sarcastic and what's supposed to be a genuine statement. In that case, sod you again.
  • Nonsense. I'm sure they'd be there in their socially distant droves, queuing to get one in four cinema seats to watch their project as it loses millions; a look of glee on their face as they realise it was all worth the pinch as Bond is the key to t…
  • It's not just a movie. It's hope for us all. Thank you - that's something I can agree with you on.
  • They can just release the movie on streaming now and I'll be happy. Don't really care about seeing it at the cinemas now. Just as long as I get to see it. I seriously doubt it will be released in November and I'd be surprised if the situation gets b…
  • Yay - behind the scenes photos from a film that I was meant to be seeing just 2 days from now! This will keep me entertained and hyped for months now! Probably a rhetorical question, but am I the only one here who's actually still upset about thi…
  • See - nothing to talk about and grasping at straws! 'Oh no, I'm perfectly happy to wait to November, if not longer!' Smarten up, mate. When I was talking about self-fullfilling prophecies, I was referring to people who had suggested that …
  • Well I don't see you coming up with any positive or productive suggestions - you seem to be the most cynical and negative person on here. I just thought on a James Bond forum of all places that there might be some people who understood or agreed …
  • Films are not trivial to me, the cinema is one of the few things that I leave my house for. I meant that as in, they are trivial compared to lots of other things in this world, but they are very important to people - especially in times like this. …
  • Physical (not social) distancing could have been practiced in cinemas - limit the amount of people in one showing and make sure that people are spaced far apart from each other - that's what happened when my mum went to see Emma just 4 days before c…
  • I don't agree with this, mostly we are discussing news about death, i am not saying we shouldn't but why discuss only about who have died? why aren't we discussing about how many lives have been saved? Why aren't we discussing some precautionary mea…
  • Anyone willing to run away from that, should probably avoid this thread, the News, papers--in fact, all media. But "ignorance is bliss" really doesn't hold up these days. This isn't about "sleeping well at night"; this is about understanding what's …
  • Regardless of what you think of Grace, the fact that the theaters in China once again shut down must give one pause to consider that things may still be in bad shape by November. Move the date or stream, that will be a question for EON. Consi…
  • I disagree, I feel the figures are important. It goes hand in hand with taking it seriously. Pretending that people aren't dying isn't helpful. Where on earth in my post did I come across as if I was 'pretending that people aren't dying'? The…
  • I don't think constantly reporting these figures helps people's state of mind. What we all need to remember is that currently, more people have recovered from COVID-19 than have died from it - the media would rather, of course, fearmonger things r…
  • If we're lucky enough to get it at that point. If not, please put it on streaming!!!
  • I sadly do not expect any major film release until September/October at the earliest. Meaning NTTD and most end-of-year films may well be pushed to 2021. Hopefully, things might start to turn around by that point if not before then. If NTTD i…
  • Being "upset" about the delay of a movie release at this time is, quite frankly, incomprehensible. Unfathomable. Inconceivable. "Miffed"... "Irked"... :Annoyed"... Sure. That's understandable. But upset? Yes I am upset about it, it i…
  • I mean people complaining how unfair it was that a film was going to be delayed by a few months. How 'ridiculous' the whole thing was, while the Chinese were dying in their thousands. Hopefully this will be a moral reset of society on things that ma…
  • The Black Widow news is depressing (the film I was looking forward to seeing the most this year besides NTTD) yet funny in a way because the main cinema I go to (VUE) closed today indefinitely because of the virus! This is all sodding depressing.…
  • Speaking positively here - the way things are going on in the world (or at least the way the media are portraying events going on in the world), I will certainly be very thankful for / need a new Bond film when No Time to Die comes out! I've have no…
  • I never believed the reshoots rumour either.
