Skyfall

[atlas2 4,329]

In the climax to a thrilling pre-credit sequence, Bond is shot from a moving train, ('M's betraying words ringing in his ear-piece..."Take the damn shot"), and thrown in a neck-breaking fall, to the river below. Then, as if to convince us Bond is truly dead, in a homage to Sherlock Holms' apparent death plunge at The 'Reichenbach', Bond's supine body is flushed over a gigantic falls.....

 

We know he's not dead.......The movie's just started for god's sake. The allusion to 'Reichenbach' actually confirms his survival. Conan Doyle had left his readers an obvious clue that Holms would survive..... 'Reichenbach' means, "The man who 'lives' in the brook"

 

If this 'brook-Bond' isn't your cup-of-tea Sabaidii2 you've nothing to explain or justify.

 

...I think I just heard 2 drums and a cymbal crash.......Followed by a long moan.

 

Hah my nurse is here.... time for my medicine.

K. Atlas, You're good at these storyline thingies ... any of your insights into the next Bond Movie?

Hi Ct. I see you are a pretty prolific poster on this forum. How does one start a new topic? Sorry to TF but I've found it nigh on impossible to gain any help in spite of previous inquiries as to the procedure. Hopefully you can oblige. New topics should be encouraged and the necessary assistance should be readily available should the owners wish the forum to flourish otherwise Pattaya Talk will slowly wither on the vine.

 

New topics are the life and blood of any forum!

No sorry....You know that if I could ruin the next film for everyone I probably would......But....

 

....I read somewhere it's already been written by John Logan who co-wrote Skyfall and that it will be a two-parter with Craig hanging up his pistol before his pecs droop.

 

Most people don't worry much about storyline do they? We know he'll save the day and wear a tux... It just a question of who's playing Bond and is there a girl in it with tits to die for and an arse like an onion........(makes you want to cry).

 

Apparently despite some of the critical reviews here on 'Pattaya Talk' the screenplay for 'Skyfall' is in the mix for an oscar nomination. Won't win but it bodes well for the next two films.

I'm on this forum and I can see 'reply to this topic' and 'follow this topic' but nothing that refers to starting a new topic.

I enjoyed the movie - visits to the cinema down here aren't a regular excursion for me (screenings in English aren't as numerous as in Pattaya). I thought that the prominence afforded to Judie Dench was well-justified ... it would be like Real Madrid including Ronaldo in their team and not passing the ball to him if it was otherwise.

I think I know your....'best bit'.........being a proud Scot! At the point I have in mind, I thought of you and Obsession . "Bet those two'll love that!" Sad bastard aint I?

 

Glad you enjoyed it. I'm off to Australia later today. My son hasn't seen it yet and wants me to take him....so that will be my third showing. Just be interesting to see what my son and the Aussies make of it.

 

........Didn't see Ronaldo!!! Was it a cameo like Branson in Casino Royale?

 

 

No you're right about Dame Dench.

Cheers TC, I'll have to make a note of that. I posted what I wanted to say under an existing topic that I found.

Thanks Tom. I'm fairly new to computers as when I was at work we never used them and younger friends have usually helped me out when I get stuck.
