Dear lord, have they no shame? They're even planting "Memberberries" in the soundtrack now!
Hans Zimmer gets sole composer credit, though.

It looks like there will be a Chiller Theatre convention here in 5 weeks. The last 3 were cancelled due to Covid: http://chillertheatre.com/gt/gtc4.htm

There are websites on line that people can download movies running in the theatres. This will annoy Broccoli next weekend.

Am I losing my mind or did Babz make a statement to the effect of "Bond has developed some distasteful habits over the years and we're trying to fix that." Or something similar? I've been searching the net all day and can't find it, did EON scrub this from the interwebs?

Only 3 short days until the end of Cr-egg now-------The London world premiere of “No Time to Die” will stream exclusively on Facebook, Variety can reveal. The social media platform has secured access to the live red carpet at London’s Royal Albert Hall on Tuesday (Sept. 28), and will broadcast the event on both Facebook and through Oculus Venues, an experiential space for the Facebook-backed Oculus VR headset. The red carpet will broadcast from 5:30 p.m. to 7:05 p.m. local time, and the show will be hosted by presenter Clara Amfo. The production will incorporate Facebook’s social video tools, such as live comments, captioning and Q&As.

Update I found a reference to this quote on Ian Dunross' site, he's very meticulous about siting his sources and I found the original article had been removed from the Telegraph, fair enough it was almost 10 years old, but I don't know why all the other articles which quoted it have disappeared as well.

Broccoli, the head of Eon Productions, who signs off on every key hiring and firing in the franchise, said she will be discussing who will take over the role from Daniel Craig next year - and that it will be a man.

Wish she'd said that 6 months ago, if not longer. We might have been spared all those clickbait articles about how Tom Hardy has officially been cast already. Although I doubt it. Liars gonna lie, and the gullible will continue to believe them.

Looks like we shall be denied the pleasure of watching this thing die on its arse. I think Covid may actually have helped it, as everyone has forgotten what a fiasco the production was.

“No Time to Die” producer and Eon Productions co-head Michael G. Wilson wants Bond fans to know that Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s contributions to the upcoming new 007 tentpole go far beyond just the women characters in the film. Asked by BBC Radio 4 (via Deadline) about the “Fleabag” Emmy winner joining “No Time to Die” to punch up the script, Wilson said Waller-Bridge had “a major contribution” to the final movie.

“She gave us an interesting point-of-view for several of the characters,” Wilson said. “It’s unfair to think of her as a female writer…she contributed to the whole plot of the film.”

The latest episode of Spitting Image on Britbox had a sketch about PWB writing Bond. Unfortunately, it's not up on YouTube, so I can't share it. It may be uploaded somewhere, I don't know.

Raining on Cr-egg's parade could be a bad omen for this film: Who dressed this clown? He looks like a walking strawberry shortcake :!: Image :down: He is going out as he arrived......looking like a sour and dour jack-ass who lacks any personality :!: Where is Atticus and the Sweenster to enjoy in the end of Cr-egg? :!: :clap:

He's not gone yet. We still have the film's theatrical run and then home media release to get through. But like they used to say in old war movies, it'll all be over by Christmas.
