the thing that Amy Winehouse doesn't seem to understand is that the producers of Bond don't just need someone who will record a song and that's it, they need someone who can be depended on to turn up to the Premier and not be stumbling down the red carpet half drunk with a white substance coming out of their nose. They need someone who can be interviewed for publicity and not detract from the film and right now Amy can't be depended on for anything, she needs to straighten herself out and not blame other people.Elvenstar wrote:I for one prefer a film with time to live and breathe (CR's pace was spot on!).

Heineken is launching a global marketing campaign on the back of its tie-up with the new James Bond film Quantum of Solace. It will star new Bond girl Olga Kurylenko in her role as Camille in TV and print ads and print ads.I just hope she loves beer unlike Eva (and me btw
)
Just have a gut feeling that it will be more succesful than Alicia's/Jack's but anyway, it'll probably be forgotten when time passes but a Bond song will always be Bond song. I'm actually upset that she didnt get the chance of recording a theme, but its her own faultAmy Winehouse plans to release shelved `Quantum of Solace` songMaybe this abandonment will help her make her life right and clean.

I would have appreciated an Amy-song. I love her voice and her music, but I really doubt that this girl will be able to cope her life.Elvenstar wrote:[I'm actually upset that she didnt get the chance of recording a theme, but its her own fault
It is so sad to see such a waste of a great talent!
I'm really sorry, but her wax figure looks so much more healthy and agile than her!

Has there been any talk about the US Premiere of QoS? I read where Casino Royale premiered in Baltimore???? I wonder if QoS will do the same? Did they have a Hollywood Primere?? I thought there were some photos of Dan on the red carpet in Hollywood. I'll see about reviewing the back threads.

From what I know, there was no premiere in the US - seems weird, tho. Red Carpet was probably for the Oscars, LR. They should go more for the US market, as they need to catch up there.Liverpool Rules wrote:Has there been any talk about the US Premiere of QoS? I read where Casino Royale premiered in Baltimore????

The top notch acting in the Weisz/Craig/Spall 'Betrayal' is emotionally true, often v funny and its beautifully staged with filmic qualities..

Harry Potter delayed until 2009, `Quantum of Solace` stocks go up
Karma: The universal law of cause and effect, as applied to the deeds of people.
Only two weeks after the Cinema & Television Benevolent Fund selected the "Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince" world premiere over 007 for the 2008 Royal Performance, having hosted James Bond in 2002 ("Die Another Day") and 2006 ("Casino Royale"), Warner Brothers have pulled the rug from under the CTBF event by announced a massive delay to the film.
The sixth instalment in the Harry Potter film franchise will now open in July 2009, eight months later than originally planned.
The 22nd James Bond film, "Quantum of Solace", will enjoy its world premiere on schedule with Princes William and Harry at the Odeon in Leicester Sqaure, London, on Wednesday 29th October 2008.
According to Warner Bros, the decision to delay Potter was made to ensure the studio has a major "tent pole" release next summer - reports the BBC.
Had Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince opened on 21 November as originally scheduled, it would have entered a marketplace dominated by Quantum of Solace. Does moving the former to summer 2009 avoid a potentially damaging competition for audiences?
"I don't think there's a great overlap in the audiences for Bond and Potter," says Jamie Graham of Total Film magazine. "They're different films aimed at different markets, so I don't see them as competitors or rivals."
One thing they might have been competing for, however, is cinema screens.
"You want to put your biggest releases on as many screens as possible," agrees Graham. "If there is a scenario where they're being hogged by a film that is lingering around, why not wait?"
In a tersely worded statement on their website, the CTBF said, "The Royal Film Performance of Harry Potter and The Half Blood Price will no longer take place on November 17th as advertised. We hope to confirm details of the Royal Film Performance 2008 in the near future."

I don´t get it, why some many fans (CBN and MI6) are so pissed with having a Ford in the series. Its like seeing Bond with a normal car is worse than invisible cars.

He drove a Lada in one of them, Goldeneye was it. Plus Ford owns Aston, so they are going to plug the whole range not just the jewel in the crown!Germangirl wrote:I don´t get it, why some many fans (CBN and MI6) are so pissed with having a Ford in the series.

I don't know. Maybe because driving a Ford is not sexy enough (unless it's a pick-up and the guy is hot).Germangirl wrote:I don´t get it, why some many fans (CBN and MI6) are so pissed with having a Ford in the series. Its like seeing Bond with a normal car is worse than invisible cars.
The Ford Taurus and the like are not too sexy. I would guess the bulk of the CNB and MI6 guys already drive a Ford and they are no James Bond.

Probably - they are very picky about a lot of things, we don´t give a damn. Its interesting to see that difference in the priorities.The top notch acting in the Weisz/Craig/Spall 'Betrayal' is emotionally true, often v funny and its beautifully staged with filmic qualities..
Helloooooooooooooo, Mustang my all time fave Ford car !!!!!! This year alone I 've seen the classic in American Gangster , Wanted and the new Death something with Jason Stratham
( not sure of either name ). Boy if I could Daniel and a classic mustang in a film I could die and go to heaven . I think Ford is still made in the states so promoting it is a good thing since so many of our other companies are now owned by China and Belgum just bought Anhieserbush Beer. Is the Taurus an eco car ?
