No Time To Die Premiere

Finally. It's out. I won't be able to see it until November and even then I don't care to see it in cinemas anyway.

Now they can finally get on with it, start the search for Bond actor #7 and work on Bond 26. I know Babs said recently in an interview that won't start until next year... but next year is only 3 months away. So that's what I'm celebrating. Time to dust off the old dinner jac-- I mean, pink blazer.

The Craig family sofa must be missing some material...

Anyway, the premiere looked like a fun time. Nice to see the world (sans Australia) getting back to normal.

Have to say I dig the Union Jack 007 feature.

Indeed, shame it's obscured.

Looking at the premiere photos yesterday, that shot of the trio together with Craig centre made me think it was a Wes Anderson film.

But good to see the Royal Marines Band doing what they do best and doing a barnstorming version of the Bond theme.

Best photo I could find on the fly.

A Wes Anderson film is accurate. I certainly don't see 'Bond girl' when I see Lashana Lynch and her aloof pout. Though that's probably the point. It probably sings to CJB's concerns about Craig-Bond's lack of womanising in NTTD mentioned in this thread (clicky). If that's what's on offer, I don't blame him.

On another note, nice to see Judi at the premiere.

Not sure if Dan's dinner jacket is a nicely individualistic choice or if it makes him look like he should be mixing the Vespers rather than drinking them .

Looks like he should be lugging Laz's golf clubs in OHMSS and showing him to his room.

"Yes, this'll do me. This'll do me nicely," as Laz stuff's a few pounds in Craig's lapel.

as the song goes, there's nothing like a dame. Apart from her M, Dame Judi is a great lady and character. Shame we have to get old as I suspect she could go forever. I think of a story she told on something, maybe that Bond Girls are Forever, where a little boy came up to her and said was she M or whatever. When she said yes, he just put his hands over his eyes in abject shyness.

Secret rendezvous between M and Wai Lin, Quantum style. A possible defection, perhaps?






The epitome of elegance, that Michelle. I imagine my excitement for NTTD has piqued with that pic right there. ^

It's nice to see, if a little jarring that invites don't appear to have been extended to Lazenby, Dalton and Brozzer.

Lazenby was invited. He said he'd have been there had it not been for Covid restrictions. He attended the LA Premiere instead.

Ah, fair enough.
