NM, I can see that the spoilers in the article have already surfaced in previous posts.  Late to the party again.

Looking very likely, I guess, although I hope not... I don't like skulls anwyay, but the aspect of the Skyfall titles whereby they basically ran through, in order, images from the film to come, I really didn't like. Let's not pre-shadow and allude to everything that we're about to see, let's leave some surprises and instead make the title sequence its own work of art, not something that merely takes from what is to come.

So, another low-key affair with minimal, if any impact to the geography.

 

I am a project manager by trade but I cannot conceive of the enormity of these undertakings.

 

All in a Bond-day for some perhaps.

I think we all need the teaser poster as our Avs seeing two on here....    :D

 

 

But I digress...I didn't see any of this coming, but makes things very interesting as to character relationships.

Agreed with the above comparisons.

For what it's worth, a tweet from @007 this evening has confirmed some of what we already know:

Filming on #SPECTRE has moved to Mexico City to shoot the opening sequence which will feature the Day of the Dead festival

What timezone is Mexico in? UTC-6? So we still have to wait a few hours for them to get daylight…

The funny thing about it: we had night shootings in Italy most of the time and now (as it seems) daytime shootings in Mexico. With the time difference of seven hours, we're likely to get our daily dose of pics and videos at about the same time (around midnight in Europe) :D
