The amount of care and attention on show bodes very well for the rest of the movie, while finally laying to rest the irritating rumour that every Bond actor is playing a different character
I'm sorry but there is no way Craig can be related to the other Bonds or be a young Connery.....

Is Daniel Craig still an Bond early before Connery? The timeline of the Daniel Craig Bonds is more confusing than Lost. :lol:

Think of it as an alternate universe, with its own timeline. That's the easiest way to think about it. Also, Michael G. Wilson told the New York Times in 2005, he and Barbara Broccoli wanted to make a film as if there had never been a James Bond movie made before.

More spoilers. BJ found it and its big. If all this is accurate they are beaching the franchise and it will be Jane Austen 007 here on out.
http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/ ... s/?a=57723 has the new photos and translation of french the story.
Scans of the French Magazine Studio Ciné Live have provided us with some brand new official images of James Bond in Sam Mendes' Skyfall. Also, revealing highlights from the article.
nailbiter111 - 4/10/2012

- The costume designer Jany Temine wants to modernize James Bond while retaining him an old school side (maybe like she did for the third Harry Potter?)

- The movie will film in Scotland, in Shanghai, Turkey AND Macau

- A scene of "crash" would be expected for the sequence of the subway.

- The journalist witnessed the shooting of a scene: the arrival of James Bond in a floating casino in Macao (I think the dragons we saw on the picture of Pinewood come from this set)

- For the scene in the set with the glasses and the neon lights that we saw in the videos and the first official image, the idea is to multiply Bond's reflection. The designer wanted that decor to reflect both the spirit of James Bond and what he saw. And here, Bond must appear as a character back from the dead.

- Sam Mendes promises they never pushed the character in such limits

- The scene of Macau: Bond leaves his hotel room and goes to the casino by boat (he is standing on the boat, dressed in a tuxedo). The boat passes between the two dragon heads and a firework is fired. The scene has a certain gravity and Mendes put a mysterious depth in it. The journalist said that the casino "looks like a kingdom of the dead"

- Mendes doesn't say "Bond girl" but "James Bond ladies"

- Jany Temine said that Berenice's character would be a "bad girl" so she wanted to dress her like a "femme fatale". But Berenice does not answer clearly to the question of which side belongs her character (she must be ambiguous, not completely bad)

- Sam Mendes loves Casino Royale and Daniel Craig, because for the first time since Connery, the character of Bond was no longer outside the action and the film wasn't ironic about the hero. He also learned the codes of the series and wants to bring things that has never been seen before.

- Mendes confirms the return of some iconic characters of the saga (so Q is not the only one). He also confirms he wants to bring more humor than in the last two movies. He wants to explore the roots of the MI6, as to make a loop with Dr No (probably for the 50th anniversary)

- And finally, Mendes reveals some thematics of SkyFall: what changed in fifty years? Should the MI6 evolve or stay as it was fifty years ago? Who are the new enemies of the XXI century? Who is Q : an inventor of gadgets that have become increasingly importants or a man who invents new ways to kill people?

Not a spolier really. We already knew about this scene and how Daniel acted on set, at the 'dirty' pool center at one of the poshest hotels. Reading this bit I actually wonder if Barbara is going to be sued by Daniel after the fact for harassment, we joke about it all the time, then she goes and does things like this:
Taking a more serious tone, Craig says though there would be plenty of action in the film, it would also take its audience on an emotional journey. So what could the cast and crew reveal? Well, it is in fact Bond who strips, again. "There is a swimming pool scene ...any opportunity to get him to take his clothes off,'' producer Barbara Broccoli says.
If this were male producer talking about a female star it would not be tolerated, not even in the grand old days of cinema. They wouldn't not have talked about Sean, George, Roger, Timothy, or Pierce like this, what's different? Barbara is in full control and has no common sense. She really should remover herself from EON and join up with Oprah.

I found this one interesting. Sounds like what I was trying to do with my Risico fanfic.
