Good research, @boldfinger. Shame it won't be the finished poster though. :(( The make up certainly looks freaky, @thelivingroyale, and more in keeping with Mad Max 2. I can't wait to see the first trailer for this movie.

That should be a fun read. Didn't Amis call FSS "an unrelieved disaster" and that the plot was "absurd" and "blundering"? I look forward to your next post, @Dragonpol.

That's OK, @Germanlady. I'm only giving you my take on our meeting. My friend absolutely loved him and they seemed to get on like a house on fire. Maybe it was because my friend was in the "performing arts" and they shared more of a common ground th…

Looks like Benedict Cumberbatch is just playing a guy named “John Harrison” and not Khan or Gary Mitchell after all. “I play John Harrison who’s a terrorist and an extraordinary character in his own right,” the Brit said. “He’s somebody who is no…

It does seem that he's getting a lot of big movie work of recent. I also found out that the "albino dude" is Hugh Keays-Byrne, the actor who played the baddie Toecutter in the first Mad Max movie and is called Immortan Joe in Fury Road. Here's th…

Yes, it looks like an old-school style poster. That's the first glimpse of the poster I've seen anywhere - shame it's only a thumbnail. Also the composer is currently recording the new Die Hard score so it looks like the recording pecking order is: …

I'm getting reports that its' Marco Beltrami that's doing the score, @boldfinger. http://marco-beltrami.com/ Notice the poster for Mad Max: Fury Road on the left side column.

I think the ego issue was most likely down to George Lazenby being at the time the world’s highest paid male model, and like most "supermodels" there comes with it an inflated ego and a sense of self-entitlement. Lazenby, who erroneously believed Bo…

The Golden Globes are widely regarded as a strong indicator for the stars nominated in the Academy Awards, which take place later in the year. I really can't see Skyfall getting many Oscar nods now that the Globe nominees have been announced and the…

I agree, @RogueAgent. It makes more sense for EON to continue with the Quantum organisation - even though it's a stupid name which was meant to be about Bond looking for his quantum of solace - and hold off Blofeld and Spectre for Craig's replacemen…

Just for you @echo... Interestingly, Wilson and Broccoli told SFX that they have not abandoned the Quantum organisation, but also confirmed that it is not used in ‘Skyfall’. Wilson also revealed that they have the rights to bring back Blofeld and…

I actually enjoyed reading that post from @bond50. He might have over-egged his hatred for Craig with too many Putin look-a-like putdowns but overall I can see where he's coming from with regards to rewriting Bond's background and childhood and turn…

I much prefer Bardem's performance as Romeo Dolorosa in Perdita Durango than I did his Silva character in SF. If you want to see Javier Bardem showing exactly why is he considered the best Spanish actor of his generation and haven't seen Perdita Dur…

Apparently her book is only available online at her website. She does seem genuinely shocked that Sir Roger Moore has withdrawn his permission for her to use the Foreword he had so kindly written for the book and wonders who were the "Persuaders" th…

Yes, it's in post production according to imdb, but I can't see any sign of a composer yet.

I don't think we'll ever get to hear EON's response to Nikki's accusations. As James Page states: "Publisher dropped the book also" which means they are so powerful they can stop an ex-employee from discussing their work on a Bond film. I don't know…

Why don't you feel the same way about Christian Bale, @0Brady? At least Lazenby never got arrested for assaulting his mother and sister just before the London premiere of his biggest film, nor did he conduct a profanity-ridden rant at the at the dir…

There's also one of Britain’s greatest spies of the Second World War, a secret agent called “Tommy” Yeo-Thomas who went by the code name White Rabbit, who has been identified as one of the main inspirations behind Ian Fleming’s James Bond. He certai…

I believe the story comes from Dana Broccoli, wife of Cubby, who remembers the production team throwing a party for the cast and crew and Lazenby throwing a temper tantrum about not getting a personal invite to the party even though he was the star.…

I think the only reason why they changed Batman from a killer was to prolong the lives of his enemies, otherwise the writers would have to keep coming up with new characters and be unable to bring back the most popular villains in future comics. Whi…

It has been suggested that Carol Marcus was the "blonde lab technician" Kirk was introduced to by Gary Mitchell years earlier, mentioned in "Where No Man Has Gone Before".

Also check out Schifrin's score for The Liquidator for a 60's Bondesque sound. I can't really see where he'd have fitted in other than for TSWLM, FYEO or LTK? Unless you're suggesting that Schifrin should have been given the job over John Barry, and…

According to AICN site where a reviewer has seen the first nine minutes of STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS, composer Michael Giacchino quotes Khan's theme. Is he mistaken? Well, if we read on he then states that the introduction of Benedict Cumberbatch, who…
