Why does the stupid title BEYOND THE ICE keep showing up, even after it's been denied by EON? Well, I have a theory.

First, one must understand that PR (Press & Public Relations) firms RULE entertainment journalism. You think reporters are out there "finding" all these stories. No. PR firms sell pre-written, pre-packaged, pre-produced stories (which feature THEIR clients who pay big money to get their names in print) to magazines, newspapers, and TV. That

I'm sure someone will recall. I'll try and do some research.

I disagree. "ICE" only turned up this time around.


Sorry Nexus you'd be wrong! I just did a quick bit of research through old files. I found the working titles / rumoured titles for TWINE included 'Dangerously Yours' and ... 'Fire and Ice'. There's the Ice!!

Yes, I forgot about that.....For Bond 21 let's change the rumoured title to:
FIRE WITH ICE...that sounds better.

I have an interesting theory which I'll write about shortly. It's why I changed the title of this thread! from 'Beyond The Ice title - A theory'! Read more soon :)

Yes, I think you're right that the other films didn't use the exact title Beyond the Ice. It was some other spin on this "Ice" crap. Same thing.

Good points there zencat. That's just about how it works. But sometimes news agencies just don't read the official sites and include the info regardless.

I wasn't aware that Beyond The Ice was mentioned for the last two films? I though they had other titles using the term Ice?

No way!! That would be too obvious for them. They need to feel creative! Like they're genius' :)

I disagree. "ICE" only turned up this time around. Previously there was "PRESSURE POINT" plus "DANGEROUSLY YOURS", and before that was "AQUATOR". The only common thread to these rumoured titles has been the generic and unimaginative stealing nuclear bombs scenario.
