  1. It didn't? https://www.mi6-hq.com/sections/bond23/release_dates Major Release Dates World Premiere TBC USA 09-Nov-12 UK 26-Oct-12 Canada 09-Nov-12 France 26-Oct-12 Germany 01-Nov-12 Spain 31-Oct-12 Australia 22-Nov-12 Japan 01-Dec-12
  2. We've been expecting you: Bond villain Christoph Waltz is spotted for the first time on the set of Spectre as new 007 film shoots action-packed scenes in London
  3. I think one of the reasons MGM and EON stayed with SONY after Quantum Of Solace is because series producer Barbara Broccoli had a great relationship with Amy Pascal. Now that Pascal is gone...
  4. I was just about to post this. Very interesting--well a bit more than interesting. As the article points out, Warner Bros seems the likeliest choice. When MGM was trying to find a buyer back in 2010/2011 Warner led the pack of potential buyers, but their bid wasn't high enough for MGM's creditors. "Time Warner put in the highest bid of the three, the sources said. The company has been seen as most likely to walk away with MGM and its library of mostly classics, such as the James Bond franchise." http://www.reuters.com/article/2010/03/23/us-mgm-urgent-idUSTRE62M03Y20100323 There's two things I can think of that Warner Bros offers over SONY: Television networks (TBS,CW, CNN, etc.) and the freedom from having to use SONY products. The SONY email hack revealed that EON Productions had to turn down a lucrative cross promotion deal with Samsung because SONY exercised their right to have Bond use their branded cell phone. "...Samsung was willing to give a $5 million fee for its phones appearing in the movie, but a higher marketing spend of $50 million to promote it." http://www.businessinsider.com/sony-offered-daniel-craig-5-million-to-put-their-smartphone-in-james-bond-spectre-2015-4 It would be crazy if the franchise went to Disney. Doubtful, but still crazy.
  5. Watch SPECTRE helicopter chase: James Bond filming disrupts London as Daniel Craig hits the Thames
  6. Early details emerge on 'SEPCTRE' shoot in Morocco "Sam Mendes will shoot in Tangier's Medina - the old part of the town with narrow, maze-like streets..." "...as well as Erfoud, an oasis in the south east of the country, near Morocco's border with Algeria."
  7. No one remembers second place, but they remember that your franchise holds the top 3 opening weekends of all time. If Avatar 2, 3 and 4 only become the 3rd, 4th and 5th highest grossing films of all time do you think Fox will consider the franchise a failure?
  8. James Bond director Sam Mendes shoots new Spectre scenes inside London's iconic City Hall as filming resumes after Daniel Craig's set injury
  9. Digital Audience Ratings: ‘Spectre’ Soars, ‘Southpaw’ Packs a Punch "Each week Variety publishes ListenFirst Digital Audience Ratings (DAR) – Film, a measurement of fan engagement across all the major digital platforms as it relates to film (see the TV version here). Provided by ListenFirst Media, DAR – Film measures what entertainment content is resonating most across Facebook, Google+, Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter, YouTube and Wikipedia combined."
  10. Back with a bang! Daniel Craig keeps his cool as he walks through massive explosion on Mexican set of new James Bond film Spectre
  11. James Bond film crew clean up Rome on Spectre shoot "Gobsmacked Italian media outlets have reported that production crew worked with the city council to clean up and remove graffiti from locations prior to shooting. They are also said to have brought in their own private security firms, who somehow made a plague of non-licensed parking attendants on the Tiber-side road in Trastevere disappear overnight - something the city authorities have been notoriously incapable of doing." "Other unforeseen good deeds included handing out hot meals to homeless people during a night shoot near the Vatican." "Most importantly though, the production has brought an estimated €1 million into the city’s coffers in location fees..."
  12. Mexico wanted James Bond, but only if the country looked as good as he does "Mexico allegedly offered $14 million in tax incentives and rebates to Sony Pictures and MGM Studios for a few minutes of the Sam Mendes-directed Bond film, "Spectre," but wanted to make some script changes in return..."
  13. James Bond's Aston Martin DB10 takes on Spectre villain's Jaguar CX75 in dramatic high-speed car chase on the banks of Rome's River Tiber
