We certainly saw more of the car chase in all those pics and tiny videos from Rome. But this stuff gives us a first glimpse of what it all may look like in the finished movie. And I'm impressed.

That's what I was thinking as well. A shame, really, as I feel somewhat spoiled by those hundreds of pics. I guess I can only blame myself for looking at them. 

 

But it is nice to see what it may actually look like. 

[Call Billy Bob]

It's all bright and shiny and new!!! I'm loving this!

[Shrublands]

They have just released a new still too. 

 

[seawolfnyy]

This is gonna be a fun chase.

[The Dove]

Mr. Hinx looks pissed!! Could it be that his nice, new Jaguar got wrecked at the end of the chase?

[Ace Roberts]

Great line by Bautista. And even though we had seen some of this from non-official sources, this shows how awesome the final product will play on the screen. 

[Dustin]

Just out of curiosity, when exactly did they start with their video blogs during production?

[Call Billy Bob]

Hinx looks like a Red Grant/Oddjob hybrid in this pic. Love the look!

[agentbug]

Bautista comes across very well in these videos, very likable and clearly loving being a part of the movie. Very smiley. It amuses me because rightly or wrongly I'm imagining his character to be an unsmiling, gruff kinda guy.

[Matt_13]

Yeah Bautista genuinely comes across as a great guy. I'm glad he has a role. Hopefully they don't definitively kill him off.

Great video, loving the speed.

[Simon]

It does all look very lovely.

 

Hope the speed does come across on this chase as I must admit to thinking the speed of the PTS in SF seemed a little plodding.  Hopefully the new M isn't demanding to know 'Wot's that, wot's going on? Report?' as this chase unfolds.

No need for M to be on the headset.  They're going to take the Bond/M relationship to the next level in SPECTRE.  M will be in the passenger seat, demanding status updates in person.  

[Simon]

Oh FFS.  You are probably right at that. 

 

Maybe then both Bond and M are to be parachuting on to the bridge after the AM gets a wash...  Perhaps they are sharing the 'chute.

[tdalton]

You know, they could make a pretty good spoof just out of the Bond/M relationship of the Craig films.

Agreed on the speed of the motor bike chase, when I first saw it I did think that it was a bit slow. Don't think that's going to be a problem this time.

[Guy Haines]

I liked Dave Bautista's comment about the chase between the "hero" of the film Mr Hinx and his "evil" opposite number James Bond. It seems he has the sort of dry sense of humour which fits the series perfectly. I wonder if it will come across in the film?

[Major Tallon]

From what I've read, that's unlikely.  In this release and the prior one, he sounds like he's enjoying the whole experience immensely.

[sharpshooter]

Nice little video to break the SPECTRE drought. It just confirms my opinion the Rome chase is going to be exceptional. I'm optimistic about Hinx as well. He looks good in that official still - stylish but also built like a tank.

*Hands Matt_13 a paper bag to breath into*

Also, have a seat and elevate your legs! We don't need you blacking out on us Matt!

 

...because it would keep us from watching the new footage while we have to look after you

 

 

Edit: and there we have it:

 

 

 

I approve!

[thecasinoroyale]

Wonderful video - so nice to see a well produced and thought about car-chase for the Craig era, following the tease that was the 'QOS' pre-titles. Hinx certainly has that imposing look to him that's been missing of recent years.

[x007AceOfSpades]

tcr had tweeted me the video, but opted not to see it.

[Shrublands]

This should be interesting on BBC 2 on Saturday night. And we'll get some Spectre behind the scenes stuff too.

Pinewood: 80 Years Of Movie Magic

In this special documentary, Jonathan Ross takes viewers on a personal tour behind the scenes of Britain’s most iconic studios, bringing the extraordinary Pinewood story to life and celebrating 80 years of British filmmaking.

 

 

 

But of course no tour of Pinewood would be complete without a 007 moment; Jonathan is joined by the woman who keeps Bond in check, Miss Moneypenny herself Naomie Harris, before sneaking on the set of the latest Bond instalment SPECTRE, to meet the man behind the myth, executive producer Michael J Wilson. (sic)

[SecretAgentFan]

Brilliant!

[thecasinoroyale]

I'll be checking that out!

[The Dove]

Umm... It's Michael G Wilson, NOT Michael J.!! And he is no longer Exexutive Producer.. Whoever wrote this article didn't exactly do the best job of proofreading...lol!!

[Shrublands]

[Vauxhall]

Damn, you're good. Beat me to it by seconds!

[Shrublands]

Thanks, Vaux!

Love this one. What an impressive operation.

[thecasinoroyale]

Love how the first shot of that video shows the camera following Bond - that'd be amazing to come out of the gunbarrel to; total audio and visual chaos.

 

For something that will take minutes on screen, these videos really make me proud of the people behind the scenes who bring these sequences to life. So much effort and detail - it's an amazing feat.
