So no evidence of Moneypenny whatsoever. Any word on Q? Damn it, I wish this press conference weren't top-secret CCTV footage.

Indeed I'm Happy with it. Better then Brosnan's orginal titles for sure. I'd prefer something Fleming mind you but I'm happy.

DC confirmed that he starts filming today so unless he stops off at the barbers then we should assume there will be some sort of beard in the film

Interesting: as long as she is not in any way like Jinx!

Why would she be like Jinx?


I was joking Tightpants. Its just the last time we had a 'field agent' it was Jinx, and a lot of people didn't like her character in DAD.

It's not top-secret, it's just that none of the enws networks can be bothered streaming it.

I accepted Skyfall was going to be the title a while ago. Those domain registrations (and comments made by zencat) all but confirmed it for me.

And it turns out all those rumours about cutting the action were rubbish too. "Action is part of the main body of the film" according to Mendes.

questions are actually rubbish. What we need is a load of Bond nerds/geeks in there with the nitty gritty.

Mendes says he's up for directing another Bond film after this one.

Title SkyFall has "an emotional meaning."

But is it SkyFall or Skyfall (seeing that it's all caps SKYFALL) I'm tending towards the latter,

The name of Bond's ancestral home, ala those rumours?

Bringing it back to the man himself for the 50th anniversary perhaps.

According to the Wikipedia article on the film - yes, it already exists; I created it - someone named "Harison Heath" is in the film.

I take it this means there is a logo on display? Anyone know where the rest of us can see it?

But is it SkyFall or Skyfall (seeing that it's all caps SKYFALL) I'm tending towards the latter,

Woah: "Mendes says that the names of Fiennes, Finney and Whishaw's characters are withheld because Bond fans might know them. Or they might not." - Empire tweet.

That's a bold statement, considering he hasn't directed this one yet. I like his enthusiasm.
