Interesting idea that got floated over at CBn in response to the four-minute trailer:

This is what apparently happened in the Skyfall extended trailer shown at the Barcelona trade event.

See, I don't get this whole "Whishaw will just be Simon Pegg in MI3" talk. Off the back of that, I can see Q as being some stuffy, uppity, self-important know-it-all, which is really how I imagine a younger version of Desmond Llewellyn's Q. There's one film - I can't remember which one off the top of my head - where Q adopts a lecturing tone and says something like "Well, it's quite simply really ...". The whole point of reintroducing the character is to show the beginning of his relationship with Bond, so from the sounds of things, the writers have managed to capture part of Q's personality whilst leaving out the warmth towards Bond.

I'm very interested to see how Craig delivers that line. Two of the best lines in QUANTUM OF SOLACE were "Well, that's good, because there isn't any." and "I never left." because while they aren't the greatest lines in the world, Craig's delivery is what made them excellent.

I also like the exchange between M and the un-named second person about specific intelligence. I'd have to hear it to be sure, but I think it really reflects the changing nature of Bond's relationship with M: he has his way of doing things, and while M might not like it, she does accept that he gets results, and so the most she can do is grumble about it. Yes, her involvement in the story does seem to be at an all-time high, but I think she'll also fit better into this story than she has in the past.

A nice theory that I found over at CBn, about a very subtle nod to Dr. No:

I recognised National Gallery too, as well as Vauxhall Bridge and, obviously, MI6. Though I can't see how this makes a nod to Dr. No.

In 1961, Goya's Portrait of the Duke of Wellington was stolen.from the National Portray Gallery in London. In DR. NO, that painting appears on the wall of No's subterranean lair.

Anyone know how much of this film was shot with IMAX cameras?

If it's a a decent amount, I'm going to book tickets at Lincoln Square the first chance I get. If not, then I'll probably just see this in a standard AMC theater.

Nothing was shot in IMAX for SKYFALL. It'll be a blow up release like it was done with other flicks like INCEPTION.

I love the idea of Bond being "taken out" in the pre-titles, as we've been seeing in the trailers. This film's going to be quite interesting.

I wonder if that is intentionally mirroring the past few years concerning the Bond series. Bond being shot down mirroring the series being put on hiatus in 2010. MI6 putting 007 back on active duty mirroring his return to the big screen.

Apparently when Bond returns to London, he breaks into M's flat again. She tells him his flat's been sold and his possessions put in storage. She tells him to find a hotel because he's "bloody well not sleeping here."

I believe this comes from the leaked screenplay.

That would explain the scenes in the trailer where Bond is shirtless in an undergruond bunker of some kind.

That's gratitude for you.

Brosnan's Bond spent more than a year in a Korean jail, but when he returned to London nowt was said about his flat being sold and his stuff going into storage.

Of course, BrosBond wasn't supposed to be dead, so I suppose it make sense for the service to pack CraigBond up. Can't have a dead man coming in and switching on the lights.

Perhaps all those who've longed to see how Bond lives will be treated to a montage of Bond choosing a new flat, picking out furniture and selecting paint and wallpaper, etc...

Best to save that for a 'director's cut,' so I can choose not to buy it.

That would make for a good line of dialogue when Bond questions why it happened. After all, he's probably going to be missing and presumed to be dead since there is no body.

They did that with Johnny English 2.

Also, let's not forget there's a six years gap between last James Bond's mission, as CR took place in 2006 (according to the dates in the recording room, at the hotel), and QOS was only few hours after CR's ending.

Remember that they ballsed up there because if you re-watch the scene in QOS where Bond goes to the 'Greene Planet' fundraiser I believe that it states a date in August 2008 on the ticket. My theory is that there is a two-year gap between the death of Vesper and Bond's tracking down of Mr White towards the end of CR.

I think maybe you're reading a bit too much into it. Maybe Bond is shot because it tells a good story - for example, we know that Bond's loyalty to M is challenged over secrets from her past. What if those secrets are that she had Bond shot to stage his death? It seems utterly bizarre that MI6 should leave a drive containing the identities of every single undercover agent they have just lying around in a foreign city where anyone can get it. Perhaps M let the drive be leaked, tagged so that MI6 always knew exactly where it was. And then she had Bond shot to fake his death, and allow the shooter - Eve - to gain the trust of people who wanted the drive? That sounds like the kind of thing that would a) make Bond question his loyalty to her (or her to him), and prompt the government to order a review of the agency.

Or that they just ignored timeline issues. After all, James Bond has been played by six actors in fifty years. If the producers can ignore the changes in the actor, they can ignore the changes in dates within two separate films.

A long time ago, I constructed a timeline based on the dates on the Blu-ray disc in the Bahamas in CASINO ROYALE and the running of the Palio di Siena in QUANTUM OF SOLACE. The film can take place in the course of a single year - there is enough time for the events of CASINO ROYALE to play out from the scenes in the Bahamas to the interrogation of Mr. White, allowing for some time for Bond to recover from his injuries at the hands of Le Chiffre and get from Venice to Siena. The dates are inconsequential.
