The next 007 movie
SKYFALL
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-15558355 3 November 2011 Last updated at 08:07 ET Bond film called Skyfall By Tim Masters, Entertainment and arts correspondent, BBC News The title of the 23rd James Bond film has been confirmed as Skyfall. The latest 007 adventure will star Daniel Craig for the third time. Leading ladies have been confirmed as French actress Berenice Marlohe and Naomie Harris. Skyfall is being directed by Sam Mendes, who won an Oscar for 1999's American Beauty. Mendes said the storyline will take the secret agent to London, China, Turkey and Scotland. It will see Bond's loyalty tested to M, his superior, while espionage headquarters MI6 faces an attack. The movie, which sees the return of Dame Judi Dench as spy boss M, will also star Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney and Javier Bardem as the villain of the piece. It will be released in the UK on 26 October 2012. Craig told reporters in London that the cast would start filming sequences for the new movie later on Thursday. Much speculation about the new film has focused on what Mendes will bring to the franchise, with some suggesting he will tone down - or even abandon altogether - the action sequences. But the director denied that this was the case. He told reporters in London that the "fantastic script" had "all the elements of a classic Bond movie, including - to quell any rumours - lots of action". When asked what fans could expect from the latest film, he added: "The movie will reveal everything, and there's lots of surprises." Producer Barbara Broccoli said no-one had yet been chosen to write and perfom the Bond theme tune. Financial troubles Next year marks the 50th anniversary of the first Bond movie, 1962's Dr No. James Bond is one of the longest-running franchises in film history, but Bond 23 will mark the end of a four year gap. The last 007 outing was in 2008's Quantum of Solace, directed by Marc Forster. Work on the 23rd film was suspended in April 2010 because of uncertainty over the company's future. The franchise had been on hold amid financial troubles, with MGM filing for bankruptcy protection last November. A rescue deal and restructuring plan put US firm Spyglass Entertainment at the helm of MGM, which had struggled due to several box office flops and a DVD sales slump. Craig - who made his Bond debut in Casino Royale in 2006 - is the sixth actor to play the British secret agent in the official Bond series. Sir Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Sir Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton and Pierce Brosnan preceded him in the iconic role. Casino Royale, was the most successful instalment in the franchise's 49-year history, making $594m (£385m) worldwide. Last edited by Frankie; 11-03-2011 at 09:34 AM.. |

That's what I got from it, it felt a little too Home Alone. Instead of Bond being a badass and taking guys out with just his guns, he has Judy Dench stick some nails in a chandelier and flip the switch. While putting some shotgun shells underneath the floorboards for good measure.

I think the cinematography was Oscar worthy. When Bond is approaching the casino on the boat was shot very well.

Watched it last night, so now I'm clicking on the spoilers.
This was my exact complaint. It was a good movie, but in the end

Finally saw it tonight. Really, really enjoyed it. Love how it basically completes a Bond Origin trilogy with Craig. They even tied it to the past with the office and leather door at the end. Then the gun barrel and Bond theme to close it out gave me full on wood!
About the only thing I didn't care much for was Bardems performance. It reminded me of Walkens over the top weirdo in View to a Kill. So is Bond Bi? "How do you know this is my first time?" Posted via Mobile Device |

I probably clearly audibly heard 50% of Bardem's lines. And that's sad because I really wanted to hear what he had to say.

Oh.......classic how they brought back the old school Aston Martin, then used the grill guns to mow down an army of baddies. Sweeet!!! Even a funny reference to the ejection seat.
BTW, where do bad guys get a small army of thugs to be loyal to them and why do they remain loyal? Does the bad guy promise them an island of gold or something??
