Press conference live thread?

Post by Kristatos »

The press conference is set for 1145 UTC on Thursday. I don't know if there will be a live stream online anywhere, and I probably won't be near a computer anyway, but if there is and I am, I thought it would be fun if we all watch it and post our snarky comments in this thread in real time. Who's with me?

Looks like MI6 will be liveblogging it, if anyone can bear to go there.

I dunno. I don't think it worth livestreaming but if someone is talking about it here maybe I'll join in.

I know Eastern is 5 hours behind. Mountain is, what, 2 hours behind that? So it'll be 0645 Eastern and I'm guessing 0445 Mountain.

Yall are getting up to stream this? :typing:

I remember Pierce Borsnan did some TV shows with his Bond beard, it was actually pretty funny. He also did MTV parties and was a hit there. I doubt the press conference will be as interesting as those.

We should inform the people in white coats with butterfly nets so they can capture Barbara and the team.

Sadly, I find I have an appointment at that time, so I wouldn't be able to join in even if a livestream did exist (which, as far as I'm aware, it doesn't). Shame, I was looking forward to getting all Rifftrax on their asses.

Actually, Sky are livestreaming it, but only to people with iPads: http://www.mi6-hq.com/news/index.php?it ... mi6&s=news

And it is actually at 0545, Denver time. Denver is Mountain Time, right?

Because it's qrrregg and miss piggy (or babs, green turnip, green vegetable) most of the audience will probably fall to sleep, creeg will do his gorilla impression jump on the stage and demand everyone to look at him and like vinney jones as the juggernaut say do you know who I am?.

Audience:....the guy who stood next to the talking polar bear in the golden compass??

cregg: rrwwaaaggh, cregg smash, cregg bash enemies, cregg hit

babs: no cregg, babs friend...

cregg: babs. ....friend....cregg no hurt friend

babs: good boy now here's lollypop for being good

cregg: cregg like lollypop eheheh...mine (runs off with lollypop).

I though it was 0545 I used to be better converting the time from Iraq to back home.
It'd be easy to find someone else streaming Sky on the web. Not that it be worth it unless Craig doesn't show or comes sporting a Walter beard.

It'd be easier to play the youtube clip when it comes out and just about everyone will have a synopsis but I'll try to check in if anyone is here.

I did a check of some of the Bond forum and those guy are little too wound up over the "streaming" Press Conference. Sorry it is not the sequel to Avatar we are talking about here.
It a conference right so there will be question from the press?

I'm watching some of it. It's called. Daniel Craig looks about 70 with a skinhead. Sam Mendes is going on about how it's great to work with "Judi", "Daniel" and "Barbara". I'm off to vomit.

Here is the run down:

Naomie Harris will indeed star in the film, playing Eve, a field agent. (not MP, thank god!)
Berenice Marlohe is a Bond girl as Mazer indicated.
Javier Bardem is the bad guy as he had said.
It is named Skyfall Mendes told reporters Skyfall will shoot in Scotland, Istanbul, and Shanghai.
No mention of he who must not be named.
Producers: New James Bond film titled "Skyfall"
(AP) – 2 hours ago
LONDON (AP) — Screen spy James Bond is returning next year with a new movie called "Skyfall" and a star-studded cast, producers said Thursday.
Daniel Craig returns as the suave secret agent for a third time in the film, to be directed by Academy Award-winner Sam Mendes ("American Beauty").
Spanish star Javier Bardem will also join the cast for 007's 23rd screen adventure as Bond's foe, producers said.
"There's lots of surprises," Mendes told reporters, as he confirmed filming will begin Thursday and will take place in London's Whitehall, and on location in Scotland, Istanbul and Shanghai.
English actress Naomi Harris plays a field agent called Eve, Judi Dench reprises her role as spy chief M, while French actress Berenice Marlohe also joins the cast.
Bond's future was thrown into doubt when studio MGM filed for bankruptcy in 2010. But its new management and Bond producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli announced earlier this year that the spy would live to fight another day.
The movie is due to be released a year from now, four years after Bond's last adventure, "Quantum of Solace."
