We can't help be reminded of Archer and the FX's spy's use of his signature turtleneck.

And those who are left all work for the drug cartels!Atticus wrote:A hilarious bit: "...although Mexican officials wanted to see their citizens in the film, they were sensitive about how they might be portrayed." Well, there's not much to present in terms of Mexican citizenry. About 90% of them are in California.
This would be the slightly darker black Tacticalneck.oscartheman wrote:

Similarly, the governor of the Federal District, whom the assassin is targeting, needed to be replaced with an international leader instead, just as the notes call for the use of some sort of "special police force," apparently in place of the Mexican police shown just moments into the film's start.
The memo also called for aerial shots of "modern Mexico City buildings."
Other e-mails suggest that all of those requirements were met through changes to the script: Bond's pursuit of Sciarra during the Mexican "Day of the Dead" celebration replaced a cage match with no apparent geographical setting, it allowed for the addition of a role for a Mexican actress, an ambassador replaced the governor as Sciarra's target, and the most recent script calls for that scene to end with Bond stealing Sciarra's helicopter and "taking off into the Mexican skyline."
What's mentioned above reportedly earns the production $14 million for what is said to be four minutes of film, and the intent is to do whatever they can to get the other $6 million using footage featuring the Mexican skyline.
Hope springs eternal Kris, but we already know thanks to the Sony leaks that this scene is going to be a chase through the crowded streets of mexico city during a festival, and will most likely be shot on a back lot at that with only the "modern mexico city skyline" depicting any actual location footage, so don't expect to see some quaint sea side villages or sarape clad locals.Kristatos wrote:If I'm feeling optimistic (it does happen occasionally! ), I can see an opportunity in this. Ian Fleming, as a former travel writer, always wrote wonderfully vivid descriptions of the countries Bond visited. It would be great if, via the law of unintended consequences, this meddling resulted in a chance to look beyond easy, obvious descriptions like "drug-infested hellhole" and present aspects of Mexico that you don't normally get to see, the sorts of little details that Fleming would have noted. Not gonna bet money on it, though.
There were a lot of locations in QOS. That may be cool but the whole story was just even harder to follow. On forum in my country someone wrote how QOS looked like cutted part from CR.Kristatos wrote:The *only* good thing I had to say about QOS is that it partly revived the travelogue aspect of Bond.
Oh,lord,just because they said it doesn't mean they think it.They asked Pierce a question directly and he had to answer in that way.He couldn't say"No,I don't think so." He needed to have some kind of positive answer.Obviously the whole thing with Elba is just another PR trick.Now,suddenly everone think how he would make a good Bond.Just like that "Craig is better than Connery" article I once ran into.It was actually written by a professional critic..seriously.No one in their right mind would ever say something like that.bjmdds wrote:Another hellacious moron to suggest such stupidityThis is why Hollywood is bankrupt on new ideas. They have morons like Brosnan and Atherton suggesting lunatic ideas that lack any sane reasoning to promote some PC obsession they all have outwardly, but as we have seen by Pascal's reveal, they are all full of it.
