Some further details on the Panama location, link very kindly brought to our attention by our friends at onthetracksof007.com

Mildly spoileriffic; looks genuine. Wonder how long it will be there...!

[Mr_Wint]

Interesting, or...

I get a DAD-vibe somehow. It scares me.

[Mr. Blofeld]

Whoa! Sounds truthful to me!

I see what you mean - presumably the idea of a media event staged by the villain being attended by Bond and his allies? I'm hopeful that it will be handled more tastefully than the equivalent scene in DIE ANOTHER DAY though

[DamnCoffee]

Oooooh pretty interesting stuff! Thanks for posting!

[00Twelve]

Hmm...wondering about

Spoiler

that "confrontation" between "Bond and the other two". I'm hoping that doesn't mean a confrontation between Bond & Mathis (just out of my Fleming-purist desire to confirm Mathis as an ally).

She blogged about her second day, too -

Even if Mathis is an ally, I wouldn't mind a verbal confrontation between him and Bond. After the events of Casino Royale, I think there will be some bad blood between the two and I think an argument will bring Bond's arrogance come to light in an interesting way. I say... Bring it on!

[Vauxhall]

Not sure we need the spoiler tags if we're in the spoiler forum!

The fact that Medrano and Mathis are standing together at the event perhaps suggests to me that Mathis could be working undercover for MI6 having infiltrated Medrano's organisation maybe. This may be the way for him to redeem himself after the events of CASINO ROYALE.

Very nice indeed.

Thanks for posting, Jim.

Could also suggest that Medrano may be a good guy of sorts?

[00Twelve]

Yeah, it's kind of like 'best case scenario - Medrano's a good guy in the end, worst case scenario - Mathis turns bad'.

One new image from the set



That's where Bond and Greene will meet, as that extra said in his blog.

Shooting began at 7.00 pm and had almost 25 takes (3-4 minutes between each one). This confirms what that guy's said about Mathieu Amalric having some troubles with his lines.

From what I've read on other source, Greene had his girlfriend by his side (Olga? a new female?)

It seems that today they will shoot a scene involving some stunts in Panama, and the Bond team has to pay about 16,000$ after burning accidentaly two sound displays (sorry, I don't know the correct word for the machine used).

[Whalltt]

Cool stuff. Nice find.

Don't you love these spy reports?

[Mr. Blofeld]

We should all be thanking our lucky stars that this isn't an ice palace...

[Eddie Burns]

I'm getting a little TND vibe from this...except i'm sure it will be better executed

[Judo chop]

After reading the report and seeing the visuals, I remain vibeless.

Perhaps something is wrong with me?

[Mr. Blofeld]

Methinks you need a judo-chop to the head...

It's all very unexciting.

Bring on a teaser trailer, I say!

[Mr. Du Pont]

Does ERNIE CUREO still post here? His write-ups of his time as an extra on CASINO ROYALE were outstanding - far more indepth than what we're getting here. (Not to knock this girl's posts.)

[MarcAngeDraco]

Doesn't look like much in these snapshots, but with a little movie magic I think this location will appear far more interesting...

I guess this means Camille and Greene are in some sort of relationship?

Oh yes, how could I forget that?

And then there was

Yes; I agree. She does seem fairly negative about the whole thing. I dont like her tone at all

[MarcAngeDraco]

Makes me long for the days of reading Ernie's terrific 'extra' reports from the CR set...

[Mr. Blofeld]

Quick, men! Invade the QoS set! For Queen and country!

It appears that the aspects of the blog discussing QUANTUM OF SOLACE filming have now been removed...
