The James Bond Thread Quote:
I think viruses actually spread more in the cold, which makes the decision to postpone the Bond film until November pretty pointless. Plus, the studio doesn't give a **** about the Corona Virus, this is all about the fear of them losing money. |
Ah but there's cold and then there's Scottish cold.....;) |

Release of James Bond film No Time To Die delayed - again / BBC News "The release of the new James Bond film has been delayed again. The premiere of No Time To Die has already been moved from April to November due to the pandemic. The film has now been further delayed until 2 April 2021 "in order to be seen by a worldwide theatrical audience", a statement on the film's website said. "We understand the delay will be disappointing to our fans but we now look forward to sharing No Time To Die next year." No Time To Die is due to be Daniel Craig's final appearance as the British secret service agent. The last Bond film, Spectre, took almost $900m (£690m) at worldwide box offices in 2015." |
4 Attachment(s) For anyone interested, the new BBC Top Gear produced book Bond Cars The Definitive History is a true thing of beauty. They were given access to the Eon archives and have come up with a stunning 340 page book full of rarely seen images, story boards and never before published documents. There's also a hell of a lot of reading too. I love the final pic which shows the crew filming the Lotus underwater in the Bahamas for The Spy Who Loved Me. There are also more images than would normally be seen for a film yet to be released in No Time to Die, but the authors probably never factored Covid delays into the books production. I received my copy for Christmas but can reliably say that Sainsbury's have said tome priced £12. |
Nothing official has been said (yet), but... Dutch Cinema Owner Claims ‘No Time To Die’ Is Delayed Again Until November 2021 / The Playlist "No, you probably aren’t aware of the name Carlo Lambregts. Unless you’re someone that lives in the Netherlands and goes to the business owner’s cinema, you probably have no reason to ever know who Carlo Lambregts is. But if you’re a fan of James Bond, you’re going to be incredibly interested in what he has to say, as it appears the cinema owner claims to have some insider information about the release date for “No Time to Die.” “No Time to Die” has been the subject of release drama since last April, when the film was originally delayed until November 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Then the film was moved again from November 2020 to April of this year. But according to an interview with the Dutch outlet BN DeStem, Lambregts claims that the release date for the latest James Bond feature, “No Time to Die,” is going to change yet again from April to November. The report doesn’t say that Lambregts believes the film will be delayed. He actually claims that it is delayed, implying that maybe MGM and the folks behind “No Time to Die” have yet to make the release date delay public knowledge. But this does jive with other recent rumors that the Bond film would be perhaps be moving to later this year. And if this is true and “No Time to Die” is going to move, yet again, then the box office is in some serious trouble..." |
“No Time to Die” has been delayed again from April 2 to Oct. 8, MGM announced on Thursday. The 25th James Bond film was originally scheduled for release in April 2020 but was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. It was then postponed to November, but in October, the film was delayed one more time to April 2. “No Time To Die” is star Daniel Craig’s fifth and final outing as 007. It’s directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga and co-stars Rami Malek, Léa Seydoux, Lashana Lynch, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, Jeffrey Wright, Christoph Waltz and Ralph Fiennes. Additional cast members include Rory Kinnear, Ana de Armas, Dali Benssalah, David Dencik and Billy Magnussen. “No Time to Die” will see 007 get pulled out of the retirement he was starting to enjoy at the end of “Spectre” thanks to a visit from his CIA friend Felix Leiter (Wright). Felix needs help locating a missing scientist. |

James Bond bosses set to face agonising re-shoots after delays to save product placement deals / The Sun "FRUSTRATED James Bond chiefs face agonising re-shoots of key scenes after the release of No Time To Die was delayed again – because the super spy’s technology is now out of date. The 007 franchise has product placement deals for mobile phones and other gadgets, but sponsors are now concerned their wares will no longer be cutting-edge models after almost two years of hold-ups. They want producers to make changes to scenes where Bond gadget-master Q hands out their kit, in the latest expensive blow to the trouble-hit film. The move comes after the film’s planned opening was rescheduled for October 2021 — almost two years later than its original premiere date. And industry sources say the lucrative deals, which have become commonplace in major blockbusters and which help to finance the hugely expensive productions, will still need to be honoured. An insider said: “The details of the gadgets and things are all kept tightly under wraps, but everyone knows that James Bond always carries the latest kit with him. “The problem is that some of those things were the very latest models back when they started filming. “But by the time the movie comes out now it will look like Daniel Craig and all of the other cast members are carrying something that has been out for ages. That isn’t really the point of these deals. “The big tech firms want the stars to have all the new up-and-coming products to help promote them and sell them to fans. “It means some of the scenes are going to have to be very carefully edited and looked at to bring things up to date.” Details of the big-money tie-ins are kept under wraps, but it is understood that mobile phone company Nokia has provided handsets that will feature in the film — while other lucrative deals include Omega watches, Bollinger champagne and Adidas footwear." |

Those re-shoots might seem silly, but I think they are perfectly understandable. It would be a bit daft to have people in the audience turning to their friend and say "I have a better phone than James Bond. Why is he using a 2019 Nokia?" |

They are probably only looking at a couple of scenes (with the rest corrected by CGI), so they may as well wait until the end of the year and for a 2022 release. That way, the vaccine rollout should enable cinemas to open, a premiere to take place, and everything will be safe for a profitable theatrical run. |

11 Attachment(s) Today I revisited the Amberley Chalk Pit Museum in West Sussex. It was used as the exterior of the mine sequences in 'A View To A Kill. The sign in the movie is still above the tunnel. A wind pump that was moved to the mine entrance for filming, Also around are some of the skips used on the rails during filming. They still have the Zorin mark on them. There is also the skip used by Roger Moore and Tanya Roberts to enter the mine and a small wall of photos.
