James Bond: 007 - Spectre

Just wondering ...

Could Christoph Waltz be Marc Ange Draco? ... and he is finally meeting the man who has been loving his daughter?

And (Nah!) could the actor who was Moriarty be Blofeld? NAH! But what if there is a universe with both Sherlock and 007, could Moriarty become Blofeld? Moriarty certainly had the 'network' of henchmen. NAH!

But . . . .

No. It wouldn't make a lick of sense for Draco to have an alias to begin with. Plus Draco is Spanish; "Oberhauser" is not.
 
Whoever said Hoytema is following in Deakins' footsteps, I disagree. Deakings and Hoytema have totally different approaches to lighting. Spectre's lighting has more in common with Tinker Tailor and Interstellar than Skyfall, which makes sense, since those are Hoytema shot films. Conversely, Skyfall is lit similarly to Prisoners, which makes sense, considering they are both Deakins shot.

Spectre looks as good as Skyfall, but they look totally different.

Yes, they both sometimes use similar hues, but the lighting is totally different. Deakins' is more colorful, while Hoytema employs a more "dusty", "pastel" look, the same kind he used for Tinker Tailor.

His films look like old photographs. While Deakins' films look as if we are looking through a window because it's shot with state of the art high def video.
 
So how long after Skyfall is Spectre because MI6 is still a bombed out wreck in the trailer?

I imagine the movie starts within 6 months of the events of Skyfall.


Could be years. You know how long government capital projects take.

Are we going to finally see Bond's 'apartment' (was that his apartment in the trailer, better way of asking)?

I kind of hope, Bond is now living in M's old place.

We've seen Bond's apartment, in both "Dr. No" and "Live and Let Die".

Government projects to rebuild important intelligence agencies or any central government building following a terrorist attack dont take that long. After the Pentagon was hit on 9/11/01 they had it rebuilt and reoccupied by August 2002.

The only reason the Trade centers took so long was because the cleanup was so extensive and it was a much larger, harder, and vastly more expensive project that was largely funded by the private sector. The Pentagon had the full might of the federal government and the FED behind its reconstruction. Considering the type of damage the MI6 building suffered it could be rebuilt as quickly as the Pentagon.

So SPECTRE likely takes place within a year after Skyfall. Not to mention, Moneypenny is bringing Bond personal stuff that was at Skyfall. She nor the government would have held onto those personal effects for years. They would turn them over to Bond quickly.

I like how both teaser trailers for SKYFALL and SPECTRE ended with a silhouette of the villain before the title appeared.

Are we going to see Blofeld in this one? Will he be the big bad or will we just get a cameo of him being the man behind the curtain controlling the big bad?
 
goldeneye still has one of my all time favorite teasers



hard to believe it has been almost 20 years since that came out (the teaser, and the film)
 
What I want from this film is to believe in the concept of a secret society. Batman begins did a good job at that. I hope this can do the same. I hope it doesn't die out in this film I would like to see spectre continue if it's good.
