  • Is anyone surprised by the amount of time they're spending in Jamaica? I had thought, for some reason, that it would only be a quick shoot there.
  • For my part I'm really glad that Norway is looking set to play a bigger part. It's been a simmering frustration of mine for several years that Bond hasn't been seeing some great locations out in the wider world - though we're headed back to Italy ag…
  • Surely we'll see Solberg driving that beautiful ocean road/bridge?

  • Laz moves beautifully, I'll give him that. It's really something to see him in motion. On the other hand, I just think that overdubbing his voice was always going to be fatal. When it's done really well (see Frobe in GF) it can work in small dose…

  • I've said this elsewhere, but I'm a huge fan of OHMSS. I spend a lot of time around the area where it was filmed, so I'm a bit biased. Regardless, here's my bold argument for it: it's #2 behind SP for the film with the most talent on both sides of …

  • I think it's also important to look back on some of the reactions on this thread to what was, at the time, tabloid reports of Craig's injury. There were people here suggesting it was barely a scratch and that Craig would press on regardless. Osteo s…

  • Things seem to have gone a bit quiet - my guess from the stray bits we've heard is that things are in flux. Second unit maybe still filling in some blanks in Jamaica, building stuff at Pinewood, and Cary perhaps scouting or traveling again?

  • Apropos of the original title of the thread, one of my favourite parts is Dalton's counter- sniper sequence. It's a small enough thing, I suppose, but I really enjoy seeing Bond's craft - his equipment, clothing, strategy, and so on. The way the …
