Bond 24 Press Conference Discussion Thread

SPECTRE? Well, that's settled.

Those MI6 Community critters were right.

Guess confirm of blofeld can't be far behind.

Newman's back. Nice!

Bit disappointed with the title… Just because it's featured so many times previously.

Or 'Shpectre' in Scottish.

Dammit! Newman's back!

I thought the new non human cast member was Blofeld's cat!

Gorgeous Aston Martin.

Looks great!

Naomie's still looking good.

Very happy with the gals!

No mention of who Waltz is playing?

Christ, Daniel, wear a v-neck.

No surprises there then, although I would've though Miss Bellucci could walk in high heels by now. Miss Harris looked great - not many women can wear stripes.

Sounds like they're coyly hinting that he's Blofeld.

EDIT: Actually, his character's named Oberhauser, according to the 007 Twitter feed.

How soon before McClory Family files a lawsuit?

Well the cast is fantastic (though I don't know much about Andrew Scott), the DB10 looks like it has a classical feel to it, a little disappointed that Arnold isn't back, and that the title isn't something new… But I did like the reveal, and the design is pretty cool.

So there goes Quantum?

That's all over. Danjaq and MGM own the rights to Blofeld now.

Liked how the bullet hole in the logo formed an octopus shape...

Yeah, shame Gemma Gor Blimey and Brozza are missing as well. I mean that most sincerely.

Interesting.

Yeah I liked that too Control!

I was thinking about that bullet hole...any chance of it foreshadowing a death near the end of the movie? Madeline's death ala Tracy? You know...bullet hole to the glass windshield in the car? Is Madeline a woman that Bond decides to retire from the service for?

Weird "press conference". I don't recall any conference being that cryptic. They must have a lot to hide on this film. Best not to put the cast out there and run the risk of them talking too much.

Who's Madeline?
