One of the better clapperboards, partly as it's nice and colourful! The Floating Dragon casino, Macau. Nice and exotic.

The worst clapperboard yet, I hate them so much. But thanks for posting!

That's the ticket!

"Floating Dragon" casino? Sounds very exotic!


(Mharkin - how DO you post pictures here??)


Need to have a photobucket account or similar, upload the image and click share. Then choose 'direct link for layout pages'.

You can also find the jpg's exact destination URL and copy that into the image box, and it should work fine.

That's some pretty fantastic-looking bike riding. Over rooftops!

It's written on the cards and chips.

Very pleased to see Bond's back in business. Not sure those are cards, though. They seem to be plaques, I'd say.
Any chance to see Bond playing roulette this time?
Just for the record - Naomie Harris too was on set today, wearing a golden dress and coiffed with her usual hairstyle.

I reckon there's a big bet on a single number at that table: probably 10,000+20,000+50,000 MOP$, that at current exchange rates are equivalent to 10,000 $...

This is actually my favourite. Check out my avatar.

Winning a large sum of money should make Bond feel reborn.

I'm guessing the photos are from Bond's ancestral home, looking at the coat of arms over the fireplace.

I think you're right, JCRendle. The coat of arms over the fireplace appears to fit the following description:

Shield: argent upon a chevron sable three bezants, upon a canton of the field a left hand appaume gules.
Crest: upon grass proper a lion sejant and affronte argent, langued and armed gules.


I'd say that the Bond girls are dressed for the Casino sequence, but the photos were probably taken on the Skyfall Lodge's interior set. A stylish tribute to the series' history over that fireplace.

Desmond Howard is a former American football player and is a current analyst for American College football. As to what he's up to that leads to thses pics - no clue.

Berenice looks amazing. She reminds me of Vesper...

The necklace is the same shape that the earrings... a fish?
