Maybe they can get a stunt coach as well because it's been lacking, especially where the cars are concerned.

Just saw a video (posted in the spoilers thread) of the 2nd unit filming some action. Looks decent.

There's an email address here... How we could let Eon know what we think...

I read about filming a dangerous car chase on the world's most dangerous road in Norway.

Well that sounds bloody interesting for a change.

I saw that, but from what I could tell, they were shooting for 3 days (June 5-7). Surely it would take longer to film a car chase. Might end up being something like the Montenegro car crash sequence in CR.

The boring SPECTRE chase took 16 nights...I guess they couldn't hog this essential Norway road for such an extended time.

I'm glad they thought of it though, or Ethan Hunt would have put them to shame.

BAZ: Bond will be embroiled in genetic warfare.

There's a reference to the real life Human Genome Project, which is:

The Human Genome Project (HGP) was an international scientific research project with the goal of determining the sequence of nucleotide base pairs that make up human DNA, and of identifying and mapping all of the genes of the human genome from both a physical and a functional standpoint.

Typed in 'genetic warfare' on google and search results for 'biological warfare' pop up. Another allusion to OHMSS?

Sounds intriguing. Am presuming they won't be making out that DNA manipulation has reached the level shown in DAD, though.

Well, if Malek is indeed Blofeld as some rumours have stipulated...

Easy to do another torture sequence in this movie with Craig-Bond....just twist his ankle.

"Making mud pies, 007?"

I suppose I'd be OK with that if they hadn't made the fucker Bond's relative.

Makes you wonder why Blofeld wouldn't just be made up to look like his brother so to carry out attacks in his name.

No, can't suggest a silly idea. They'll poach it and sell it off as a gritty drama-- which is possible, considering that Baz is reporting that Phoebe is still working on the script while Craig recovers.

The Spy Command (I believe this is Napoleon Solo's site) has summarised an article from Deadline.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge suggests the film, not Bond himself, needs to treat the women in his film better. He needs to stay true to his character.

Her dismissing talk about Bond being irrelevant as 'bollocks' gladdens the heart, does it not?

Oh absolutely. But we already knew that. 'Spose it's good that someone on the team seems to think so too.

Major accident at Pinewood Studios involving a controlled explosion.

Yowza. Hope the injured have a speedy recovery.

Yikes. Poor guy outside minding his own business then the wall next to him blows up.

The news app on my phone made the injury to the crew-member sound a lot worse last night. Glad it's not.

007 Stage should be fine, the whole thing has burnt down before now.

Indeed. Time will tell how serious it actually is.

Some photos of the Bond crew shooting in Norway. Looks like an Aston will again feature in Bond 25. Do not click if you do not want to know what model, because it's not what you might think.

I must admit, if that explosion was 'strong' enough to do that I'm quite excited to see it onscreen. Hopefully it will be handled with more dynamism than the base explosion in SPECTRE.

Wasn't it a test though? Not sure cameras were rolling.

Ah right.

It's got some woman's pants in a twist on the Behind the Clapperboard FB page.

if I may;

Quote :

This isn't even the first injury for this shoot since Craig got hurt barely a few weeks ago!! They keep shitting out those James Bond movies (this number 25 for god's sake! ), but it's clear by now they won't let safety come first for people who dedicate their time to the product - yes, it's more of a product to sell than a story to tell, at this point.
This franchise has been going so long no-one would care if they would end its suffering. Whoever's in charge should be ashamed.

but the responses as good: I wouldn’t say 25 movies in 56 years is exactly “shitting them out”, just a long-running still popular series.

and: Lol. I don’t think they just “crapped out” Skyfall.

hope the chap's alright though. I'll click on the link about the Aston one day. Might want something about this film to be a surprise, ha
