I expect some of the chaps who post on here will have been given an invite to this, too. So, hopefully, they'll post their thoughts on it sooner rather than later, as well.

I envy every single person in that room. I can't believe the equivalent experience for me is still 26 bleedin' days away. Bad form, Sony. Bad form.

Exciting to think that some people, somewhere, are now enjoing Skyfall in all its glory. God, I hope it lives up to expectations.

As an American who sometimes forgets the world doesn't always revolve around us it is humbling to have to sit here in the states while Bond gets an "early" release across the pond.

Wow! Why the hell didn't MGM/Sony/EON have part of the audience for this, we are the ones who keep Bond alive!


(Not jealous!!) :)


Can't wait for those all teasing and important reviews!!

We are so seriously not the ones who keep anything alive.

23 fanboys wittering on about Bond's socks is not a business model.

Vociferousness is another matter, and look how that damaged Casino Royale's returns...

Apparently, one reviewer as tweeted yes, another has said no! Keep waiting... I'm sure we'll get a better consensus before long.

Maybe just before or after the titles sequence.

Can't be at the end as Bond earned his stripes by the end of CR.
