Rough cuts of movies are used all the time, part of the process. Remember usually films go out for official release shortly after they are a finished product. Should be more room for error more often than not it's a rush to the finish line. Unfinished movies are often sent for ratings and used for early screenings.
If a studio / producer is uncertain of how certain element might work (sometimes) there is more testing done. Directors and actors live in a bubble they often can't tell how the general public may react to a scene so it's tested and often a easy re-shoot remedies any problems.
A few thoughts on Bond 23. They might be using a instrumental opener if so they can work in a song by Adele -or whoever in the credits.
If some of the rumors are correct Babs and Mikey are once again raping the memory of Fleming, a few pillars of Bond as established By Fleming, Saltzman, Young, Connery and Broccoli should be left alone. Remains to be seen how some things may affect attendance but messing with the basics can backfire big time.
The entire IMDb thread has been deleted by an administrator. Either the OP violated some non-disclosure agreement, or the whole thing was made up. I suspect the latter.

Well, I thought I should post that IMDb thread here, since it's kind of fun to speculate the details of Skyfall. But the way the Bond series is now, some of that information doesn't sound too far-fetched to me.

Worth knowing about for sure, trusting it? uh, I have a problem trusting the source.
Chief of Staff, 007's gone round the bend. Says someone's been trying to feed him a poisoned banana. Fellow's lost his nerve. Been in the hospital too long. Better call him home.
And like we were talking about why were the non spoilers stuff treated like a spoiler and the big things were flippantly mentioned.

I've noticed that there have been a lot of spoilers about the new season of Grey's Anatomy. That's because the show's producer ended last season with a story that enraged a large percentage of the audience. She's putting all this information out there to get people excited and win back the audience she lost. Judging from the first few promos for the new season though ,that strategy is going to be an epic fail.
I was just invited to a private screening of Bond 23 at MGW's house. He fell asleep three times throughout the mercifully only 87 minute film. It opened up with Bond being killed on a train and then winding up with amnesia in an insane asylum in the Swiss Alps. Judi Dench's M tries to jar his mind back to life by singing the theme song from Ghost, Unchained Melody, but it failed miserably. Bond then gets to meet a computer geek who befriends him and they eat cotton candy together in a museum until Bond is arrested for solicitation of a minor. Back in jail, Bond meets a strange blond haired retired florist from Belgium, named Silva, who loves to eat dead rats. They share meals together until MI6 pulls strings and gets Bond released. Silva misses Bond so much he dedicated poetry to him on the prison walls. At the end we meet Ralph Fiennes character, Vole D. Mort, who gets appointed to be the new M, after Judi Dench's M runs off with a younger woman named Eve, who likes to shave people after she shoots them. All in all, it is a very strange film and should not do more than QOS at the box office for if it does so, by even one penny, Steven Seagal shall be called in to play Bond next film. Right FBF? The end.............
Favorite Bond Movie: The Dark Knight Trilogy, Mission: Impossible, Kingsman: The Secret Service and The November Man or any upcoming actioners starring Pierce Brosnan (no, it's not James Bond which is good since it will help him expand his reputation as an actor especially in the action realm)
Favorite Movies: Star Wars Indiana Jones Star Trek The Dark Knight Trilogy Harry Potter Middle-Earth The Matrix Mission: Impossible The Mummy Jurassic Park Godzilla

Save Seagal for an unofficial Bond competing against the traditional Bond. Bring in this creature as Bond instead.

You should post that on IMDb (minus the reference to FBF, of course) and see how many people believe it.
"He's the one that doesn't smile" - Queen Elizabeth II on Daniel Craig
Since the reboot, I've lost a fair bit of faith/respect for the Bond series, that the description BJ made up sounds quite believable. If I saw a random thread reporting the Bond producers were planning to make an entire film dedicated to Q and Moneypenny's backstory, I would probably find it believable.

Well done! S2 is gonna be great, I've kept up with some of the spoilers and casting and it sure won't disappoint.
I'll say it again, many people here should check out Person of Interest. As Bond fans you're definitely going to enjoy the show. And it is superbly written and acted.
LOL about the name of that person Kristatos... I think it's just a further way to mislead those who may be on to this fanboy?

None of Barbara Broccoli's weird ideas surprise me anymore: anything is possible with her.
