  • Isn’t it interesting that SF was the only movie that Craig wasn’t hurt on? And it’s his only good one. Uh oh.... I keed, I keed :)
  • This whole thing sounds like fake news! I mean how bad could Craig’s injury be? They weren’t even shooting any action scenes. How did he injure himself? Puffing on a cigar and holding a speargun?? It’s not like he’s jumping across buildings Tom Cru…

  • Knock it off with the PC nonsense. Bond has been doing this since the 60s. He’s Bond. That’s what he does. If you don’t like this then you shouldn’t be watching Bond movies. Bond does not ask “May I enter the shower with you?”. He just does. And …
  • I really like how Craig’s tenure is bookended by tropical adventures. CR had the Bahamas and Madagascar (actually shot in the Bahamas) and this one will have Jamaica. A nice contrast to the more cold and gray films sandwiched in the middle.
  • Did you guys see any pigeons in any of those Jamaica filming stills? A source close to the production says we will be seeing double taking pigeons in the final product. If true this is more fantastic news than I could have ever hoped for!!!

  • I don’t quite understand the ecstasy some are feeling over Jeffrey Wright’s return. He’s a fine actor and I’m on board with him being back. That said, he’s just a secondary character who doesn’t exactly do a heck of a lot (did he do much in CR or QO…
  • Going to Jamaica for my honeymoon this coming June. Can’t wait!!! Definitely planning to climb to the top of Dunn’s River Falls with my soon-to-be wifey :)
