It's just a name though. Quantum effectively filled that role. I'm sure they'll have a "twist" in Spectre where its revealed that Quantum is SPECTRE or a sect of it, but I feel like that's just a lame way to shoehorn SPECTRE's name back in to play on nostalgia and provide even more fanservice.

This is no doubt what's gonna happen. I can imagine Quantum were a sub division of Spectre all along, which would suck.

Yeah, it would've been more effective if SPECTRE were picking off the remains of Quantum after Bond screwed them up in QoS. Having one major evil organisation bankrolling another is very clunky.

Loved Skyfall, but the SPECTRE script and shooting outline sounded awful. On the plus side, the Casino Royale script didn't read very well on the page but made for a pretty strong movie, though unless big changes have been made in the interim (unlikely), SPECTRE's problems extend beyond bad dialogue and a draggy first act.

There were other emails leaked at the same time talking about how the script had been majorly rewritten and execs were pleased with it. I don't know if the script has been rewritten again since then, but it did seem like it was reworked since the time those first emails had been sent.

A shooting outline dated November 9th 2014 also leaked. I believe filming started only a month later. If they have sorted out the problems described in the outline, they'd have had to do it extraordinarily quickly.

(I can provide a link to the relevant Reddit page, but want to make sure it wouldn't be breaking any GAF rules or tempting anyone into major spoilers they're trying to keep away from)

So the script leak was not the apparently improved one? Here's hoping for the best then, I didn't read it, but I trust that all those Gaffers who read it.

Ugh, the Spectre Aqua Terra is ugly.

I tried on a QoS Planet Ocean when I bought my Omega Seamaster 2254.50 - they only had one and the saleslady desperately wanted me to buy it ha.

There was quite extensive footage, by teaser standards, before Skyfall.

I'd imagine it would be quite similar here.

Well going by the leaked script, and everything I've seen so far seems to show that it was an accurate description of what we'll see, they haven't even filmed two of the big set pieces yet so footage will be very limited.

I don't know why they are releasing one so early TBH, end of May would have been better.

Hope its like Casino Royale because its very rewatchable. Skyfall was still fantastic though. Hope its not another Quantum because that movie was absolutely terrible. I had to watch it 3 times to try and decipher it, still terrible.

I just want a film as gorgeous as Skyfall with the script and plot qualities of Casino Royal. Is that too much to ask? :(

I'm with everyone else, Skyfall was Spiderman 3 levels of terrible. I still don't understand how we went from Bond being a code name to bond being his actual name... I feel like the whole bond universe got wiped out with that film.

You have to be trolling... Spiderman 3 bad? Even Quantum of Solace wasn't 1/4th of the bad that was Spiderman 3 and that was the worst one by default.

So there's no way we're going to have spectre be an acronym, right? Like that's too campy for modern bond?
