Comment about this thread and some previous posts (but spoiler tagging just in case)You know, I'm pretty sure the the posting of that picture constitutes a possible spoiler.
Has anyone seen the recent reports for this flick? A $220 million budget? A half hour pre-title action sequence? It all seems too much to follow what Casino established.
I've heard that the half-hour pre-title sequence rumor was bebunked. Apparently, the people who reported it saw the crew filming a bunch of stunts in one place and assumed they were all from the pre-credits sequence. At least a few of the stunts from that shoot are confirmed to be showing up later in the movie.
I think it would be cool if the pre-title sequence consisted of the last moments of Casino Royale i.e. Bond capping Mr. White, "The names Bond... James Bond." then the titles... it would be short and an effective little reminder of Casino Royale.
I read a similar article, but without a picture, and from the description I thought "It sounds like a good lair". And now I've seen that photo, I'm completely convinced now.
I can't believe no one has mentioned the unlucky week the crew is having with the bond car crashing into the lake on the way to filming and then a stunt man being critically injured in a rollover.
Looks like it's pretty action packed. Not sure if I like the way it looks visually though.
What Casino Royale did was it had the balls to add some nice color to its palette - something action movies these days seems a bit devoid of. The above preview looks kinda contrasty and seems to have limited everything to blue, orange, and beige.
That looks very cool. I've been wondering when the trailer was going to get a release, I was expecting it around May-June, better late than never though.
