Did you read the article from the DM? The descrition is far from yawn IMO and its not even clear, he IS the villain.
Even if he turns out to be the villain again, I don't mind - because he's damn good at it! :wink:

He wasn't the villain in Django Unchained and Carnage.
He was an asshole in Carnage, though :twisted:

Ah! All the 4 chars had flaws and pretty humanized.

One of my fav movies.... makes me lol so much at how ridiculous they all get. Of the four Jodie was my fav. She played that char brilliantly :lol:
My husband liked Waltz. His char kept his cool till the end.

Will be interestting to see, what we will think about him once we saw the film. Will he make it fresh? I believe, he will. The part MUST be interestting otherwise he wouldn't bother to play it. So that's a good start.

I agree, it must be a complex, meaty role to have attracted him in the first place. If not, why would he bother with it?

Personally, artsy acctors (what I do consider waltz) taking a role always convinces me, that there must be something right with the script. :D

New bits from Austria here:
http://www.tt.com/kultur/kinoundtv/9261 ... s-bond.csp

1 week from January 8 in Sölden ((getscher) and 400 cre2w people will return on February 9. Even though its the main season, the gletscher will be shut down for public.

In Sölden they are building a container village (for the crew, I assume) on open field and a heli landing place.
In Obertillach its said, the people will get mmail with information about filming.

All are made to be quiet until mid December.
Filming strrats December 6 in Pinewood.

Now here are more interesting details from Austria.
Don't read, if you want to avoid SPOILER!!!











First stop during the prominent "Sightseeing-Tour" in Austria is a piece of forest very closely located to the biathlon center of Obertilliach. [......] Exactly here a dramatic plane crash scene will be filmed. Big wooden poles and thick cables have been placed there. They will make a two-engine Piper airplane (pictured below) "fly" over it, while at the same time three Range Rover's will be "thundering" on the then snow covered forest road (below it?)
Image[/spoiler]

While director Sam Mendes is non-stop calling with his smartphone, special effects supervisor Chris Corbould and stunt supervisor Gary Powell are discussing. They carefully study the wooden houses and log-cabins that have also been built by the production team, and that are surrounding the large "Bond-House" in which the Piper plane will crash. James Bond will be chased by skidoos inside the village. [......] As soon as the first snow falls, the 2nd Unit will start rehearsing the filming of these stunt scenes there.[/spoiler]
A lot of the crew is already in Austria, including director Sam Mendes and Chris Corbould and Gary Powell. Extensive preparations and rehearsals of stunts and yet-to-be-filmed scenes. This is the last phase of pre-production (or where do we draw the line between pre-production and principal photography/actual filming?).
--> The production team really need good weather circumstances, as most of the action sequences in Austria will take place in the snow. Based on experiences in OHMSS and FYEO, the production team must be aware of strict planning.
--> The action sequences will most likely appear to take place within/above snowy forests and inside the densely populated village (lots of houses there) of Obertilliach. That's why the production team also build extra wooden houses around the "Bond-House" in which the Piper plane crashes. So put on your jacket when you watch these scenes ;-).
--> The action sequence combined, looks (I'm not confirming) as big as the Skyfall-lodge action sequence. I can not confirm if this will be in the PTS or at the end of the film.
--> The story is not talking about filming on the Rettenbachferner glacier, which will be closed for tourists during two weeks in Janary and February. This could mean that Bond 24 includes not just one, but most likely two or more large action sequences in the snow.

:D Sounds very interesting!
Again, I wish them snow! If they want snow, they should get snow for real (as I am living in the mountains too, I am really not a fan of fake snow in a movie).
And now...please a PC, to confirm more!
