The Oscar nominations have been released: https://www.denofgeek.com/uk/movies/osc ... e-revealed

I've seen precisely three of the nominated movies (Bohemian Rhapsody, Mary Poppins Returns and Ready Player One), the last two of which only got nominated in technical categories. So I don't really feel qualified to comment.

She is still living in this delusional fantasy that Cr-egg is a fresh face of the franchise and once he is forced to leave, I foresee a deep depression in her ego that will lead to her exiting the franchise for good. Unfortunately, I don't see that happening for years to come :!:

If Craig left I think Barbara would not make a Bond film for 10 years.

Looks like someone is targeting a very specific demographic, consisting of me:

A Norwegian James Bond fan site has announced that they have "huge Bond 25 news" coming TOMORROW. Last month Norway was heavily rumoured to be used as a shooting location, since a project named "B25" was on a grant shortlist.

I wish I had that sort of money. £115 for a pair of cufflinks and a belt clip?

Interesting, but I won't get too excited until I see what this huge news is, and whether it's verifiable. It could be some on-set photos, but has shooting actually started yet?

Last huge news from a fan site was years ago about a helicopter EON bought which meant bond 25 production was eminent, only to have that shot down later. My guess is like every movie since QOS they will claim some local place is going to be used and nobody in the country can get any sleep because everyone is so excited about the great Craig coming to their country. They will be rewarded with a second unit stunt team and demands they shut down the town where filming is to take place.

Eon’s official statement will be cut and past from 2012.

Just as Omega said, we now begin the location rumor portion of our program. Several international locals will pop up to say they will be a prominent location in the next film, only for EON to shoot down those rumors true or not. I suppose to prevent the stunt man wearing the Craig mask from getting mobbed. But seriously why does EON keep everything so hush-hush, sometimes I wonder if they think they actually are MI6.

It hush hush because they have no idea what they will be doing. Last time they talked about what the plans were for the next movie it was bond 22, a direct continuation and based on mgw’s unused script from 1987, never heard a word about it since and they been stuck in resting talking g points since 2012

The thing is when a rumor does break they try to shut it up, no matter how innocuous it may be as if it would ruin the viewer's enjoyment of the film. Its as if they think knowing a location will destroy some M. Night Shamalan twist.

The Norwegian Film Institute states on its website today that a film with the working title “B25” has been given a huge amount of funding - suggesting considerable chunks of the production will take place there. The shooting is set to start filming on March 4 this year in Canada.

Is that the *huge* announcement? It's great news if you live in Norway and work in the film industry. For anyone else, it's just a location.

First of all as Kris said, YAAAAAAAAAWN.

Second, the Norwegian Film Institute announced filming will commence in Canada?!

Finally, "B25" has been given a huge amount of funding? By whom, Norway? Is this Mexico all over again?

Oral-B Glide dental floss contributes to elevated levels of toxic PFAS chemicals in the body, according to a new study from the Silent Spring Institute in collaboration with the Public Health Institute in Berkeley, California. :hair: Scientists are worried about widespread exposure to PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) in the population because the water- and grease-proof substances have been linked with kidney and testicular cancer, thyroid disease, high cholesterol, low birth weight, decreased fertility and immune system damage. :hair:

Express.co.uk: The NFI website says it has been given around 47.025.000 kr, which converts to roughly £4.2 million; or 4.8 million Euro. According to the Norwegian website Filter Film og TV, that’s the largest amount ever given by the country’s film and TV incentive scheme.

BJ, with all due respect, I wish you would include a link to the articles you're quoting, it would greatly reduce the amount of confusion generated when you just post quotes and snippets. All you need to do is cut and paste the address at the bottom of your post. I for one would very much appreciate it, thank you.
