This Komodo dragon thing - should it be true - seems to point to a Bond film much more inclined to go exotic and fun. Maybe it will be Craig´s TSWLM, after all...

[Royal Dalton]

I really hope so, SAF. I had my doubts about Mendes to begin with, but he seems to understand what Bond is all about.

[Shrublands]

Hard-edged-Bond but simultaneously exotic and fun – Again, that says Thunderball to me and I do hope so. But I’d be more than happy with Craig’s hard Bond caught up in an adventure on the scale of TSWLM.

[SecretAgentFan]

In any event, the trend towards splashier and lighter seems inevitable, even with Craig. And no, I don´t think that´s a bad thing.

Loving everything to do with Skyfall at the moment. Except... the floating Casino. It just doesn't sound right. Hmmm. There's something a bit meh about it.

Forgive the translation, but I think this sounds very interesting.

Club James Bond France
Great news, our President has been invited by Sony to attend the filming of Skyfall at Pinewood. The date, is for the moment, a secret but he will attend the filming of a scene between James Bond, a Komodo dragon and a body guard. All on a floating casino.

Awesome wouldn´t begin to describe it if this turns out to be true. About time we get the exotic up and running in the Bond cannon again. Connery had the sharks and piranhas, Moore had the gators and the tiger, Timothy had the shark, Pierce had Teri Hatcher, about time Daniel had his lizards.

It sounds exotic and classy to me. It would look great on film, especially if they shoot at night, with the lights on the water. A nice backdrop for some more poker, or whatever game interests Craig Bond.

Yeah, besides, a floating casino can be anything, from a ferryboat to that awesome casino in Macao. Love the idea of Bond returning to a Casino BTW.

Really? Isn´t the idea of a floating casino very Bondian?

And the imagery of Craig arriving via speedboat brings back TB related memories. And I´m a huge TB fan.

Best news in a while. And we´ve had some good ones lately!

Komodo dragon is the coolest rumor so far. It sounds totally awesome, very Bond but still fresh. Here's hoping it's not some CGI thing.

Me too.

Floating and Casino sound bondian, modern, stylish, expensive! Just Bond. And Beyond...

"Tell me, Mr. Bond. What do you know about the Komodo Dragon?"
"Enough to know you should keep your distance on feeding day."
"A pity you didn't follow your own advice."

[Matt_13]

All of this sounds amazing. Bond arriving to the casino via speedboat in Thunderball is one of my favorite moments in that film, thanks largely to the classy music Barry infused as the boat approaches it's destination. Komodo dragon encounter? Also thrilling idea, and classic Bond. This is all very, very good news.

[Marketto007]

Hello lads.

Not sure if it was Bond stuff, or not. My girlfriend, which is currently living in London, told me a couple of minutes ago, that she had just seen a movie location. It was a scene envolving two guys in a suit, and one of them, caring a briefcase, going in and out of a car. The scene took place near EON House, in the Old Park Lane Street.

The production guy there did not confirm if it was indeed Skyfall, but he told her last night they shoot a sequence inside a Hotel, with several women having drinks, and that tomorrow, they'll film a boat chase in the Thames River.

Anyone knows something about a Thames River shooting schedule?

[DamnCoffee]

You sure she hasn't stepped back in time to 1999?

Thanks for the heads up!

As I said, not sure if this was B23, because the people working in the production, they don't confirm or deny anything.

I can confirm this because of the Trinity Square shooting, which I was fortunate enough to visit when I was in London last month.

I talked with some of the crew, and when asked about the Bond sequence being filmed there, the actors envolved, the crew members always denied any information.

In that ocasion, I saw Javier Bardem getting out of a black car, with a hood covering his head, he looked at me, and laughed. A couple of minutes later I went to check which actors were envolved in the scene, and a woman from the crew told me Javier Bardem wasn't there. LOL, the guy just laughed at me.

[Vauxhall]

Sometimes they're more accommodating. It probably just depends who you happen to speak to. During the filming at Greenwich, a crew member volunteered that it was "the new Bond film", in response to a simple question about what was happening there on the day, and another handed us some funeral parade flowers. Just have to catch them on a good day!

Yes, it has to be a real one, at least for the most part.

lol I highly doubt Bardem will be sporting a Komodo in his shoulder. But hey...who knows? Maybe it´s his "amigo"

[SecretAgentFan]

Well, if anyone can pull off the "Komodo look" it´s Bardem, right?

[univex]

Right. There´s something reptilian about him. I can now see him pulling off a Largo and speaking about his beloved indonesian Komodos, while he feeds them.
