Spoiler


Strange dream I had a couple o' nights ago. I met with MGW and BB and gave them an idea. There would be a tag scene after the closing credits. We'd see a close-up of a hand petting a white angora cat. The camera pans up and we see a heavily-made up 104 year old Benedict Cumberbatch who apparently has some connection to Peter O'Toole. (Can't remember what the connection is, sorry!) He's to say "Kill Bond, now" a la Donald Pleasance. So here I am at a special premiere screening in a rather small but fairly crowded screening room. And I'm excitedly telling everybody "don't leave until after the credits!" We get to the tag scene and the filmmakers botch it. I can't remember specifically how they botch the camera-work in the scene - maybe they start on a badly lit medium shot of Cumberbatch - but Cumberbatch camps his lines, imitating Pleasance to the nth degree. And I hear the audience muttering what a stupid scene it is.

I still haven't been able to find a copy of this issue yet.. Anyone else, States-side, had any more luck than me?
