Shades of Dr. No in that. I wonder if Daniel Craig has borrowed from Connery's contract from Diamonds and insisted on being paid piles of money for every day past the original shooting schedule that they go?
Well, geez, Shooter, ya could dragged Paladin's trailer post over. https://wordforge.net/index.php?posts/3202331/
It does look like some spoiler. Could be misdirect. Blofeld being back is a surprise. bond looks shocked to see Madilyn at one point in the trailer suggesting she doesn’t appear to survive the opening sequence? I’m speculating but if they’re doing their job they will subvert expectations that this film will open as OHMSS ends.
Since Blofeld didn't die at the of Spectre, and it was hinted there was more to come with him, his return is not much of a spoiler. I think Bond's surprise at seeing Madelyn is not that she was alive, but where she was. Obviously, there's a plot thread that involves Bond being suspicious of her. She's got something going on he doesn't know about, and it figures into the plot.
I had read that Waltz did not want to return to Bond after Spectre and nothing hinted to his inclusion in Bond 25. So I was surprised they were going back to that well.
"So, you're Doctor...?" "No." "You're not a doctor?" "No." "Then..Mister...?" "Doctor." "Mister Doctor?" "No." "Not Doctor?" "No." "Mister?" "No." "Mister No?" "Doctor." "Doctor?" "No." *sighs*
James Bond should die in Lashana Lynch's arms in a mirroring of the end of "In Her Majesty's Secret Service", but instead of James going "we had all the time in the world ", Lashana goes "please James, this is No Time to Die! ". Then, next movie? Mirror "Diamonds Are Forever", where Lashana Lynch pushes Blofeld into lava, and goes "welcome to Hell, Blofeld!". Boom! And a new franchise is born! Eh? Eh?
BTW, I learned something interesting about lava that made me slap myself for not thinking of it earlier. One does not get pushed into lava. It's far too dense (molten rock!) for a person to sink into. One gets pushed onto lava, whereupon one's (now) corpse instantly catches on fire and has all its liquid flash-boiled...meaning you pretty much explode all over.
This looks dope. Also I really don't remember Spectre, or Quantum of Solace for that matter. Casino Royale and Skyfall stood out to me the most from the Daniel Craig run of Bond. Skyfall especially because I grew up with Dame Judi Dench as M (aka the best M). Oh well, guess I'll have to get to those during my celebration of the 007 Days of Christmas.
they played that for a local radio talk show host live to get his reaction. He reacted pretty much how I did since I hadn't heard it yet either. The reaction was basically WTF does she have in her mouth? I'm guessing sleeping pills myself! You can hardly understand her, and she sounds so somebody better check her pulse. How...in..the...hell did she win all those Grammy awards? Then the host compared this Bond theme with some previous Bond themes - it was no contest - hers is the worst so far.
