  • After all the efforts put on making a gigantic Bond film experience filled with glorious IMAX sequences presenting NTTD on streaming services seemes quite unlikely.
  • Italy has now 2500+ casualties. Forced quarantine will be 100% extended from April 3 to mid April or even to the end of the month. Meanwhile people across Italy have been singing from their balconies in an effort to keep up morale:

  • Stop with this reshoot nonsense. EoN delayed the film only because of the coronavirus starting to spread in Europe (without mentioning the established situation in Asia). I even predicted a delay two weeks before the announcement. It was obvious sin…

  • Bond won’t die. At least not in a “Logan way”. Fukunaga explicitly said that the movie ends with the JB will return card so IF it happens will be something quite vague. Maybe Swann believes he’s dead but he’s not like in the YOLT novel.
  • Yeah a vaccine will take more than a year (summer 2021 I guess) but it’s still possible to find some medicines that work quite good against the virus. In Italy now they are testing in the whole country a medicine against arthritis since two patients…

  • I just read that infected people in UK could be 10000+ and that the medical chief officer said that 80% of British population could be infected with half a million casualties. Now I’m asking: why are they not locking down the whole country?
  • Italy now has suffered 25% of all the coronavirus casualties in the world.
  • April will be the worse in any case so for now November sounds like a safer lot. I highly doubt things will be worse by November but of course it’s impossible to make predictions. The only thing that is basically certain is that April will be the wo…
