Behind the Scenes of The Sinking Palazzo. Casino Royale.

[@OppoOppo-dx7hf]

This bond film was my favourite. Eva Green was beautiful play like it was real. Her love for Bond was fantastic. Their chemistry was unforgettable.

[@dwaynecraig2117]

Its crazy and insane the genius of the ppl behind the scenes in the James Bond movies it just sheds so much light on how talented ppl are i could watch the behind the scenes for days

[@wills2552]

For me it's the best Bond movie ever, it had it all.

[@geraint8989]

1:34 One of the best things my eyes have seen.

[@kathleenclark5877]

As a sophisticated viewer, you KNOW that this stuff has to be going on behind the scenes in a vague sort of way but to see the actual logistics is epic! This alone explains the price of a theatre ticket. I will be watching this again. Also, a side note: just looking at the enormous scope of the sets both the miniatures and the underwater sets one wonders … where do you start? I marvel at the imagination of the designers and the builders regarding HOW to make it all work! Great appreciation and respect has been garnered by this video!

[@Richard-y5u]

The best bond movie ever, edgy, cool, much better than the others Craig did after.

[@AnP865]

It's so weird that the same director did Goldeneye. I love that film too. The campy bond and the gritty bond, helmed by the same director.

[@leopolitan1914]

Both were great introductions to the new actors. And they both had that special element that Marin Campbell is capable of.

[@tracyyy99]

It's one of the great things about Bond movies, where possible no CGI Crap...This was so epic to watch, makes me appreciate the bond team...ALL of them...even more. well done guys.

[@Rivenworld]

Wow! Awesome, got to say the guy putting the plant on the balcony made me laugh, just looked weird seeing him so big against the building.

[@willie9537]

That model building coming down was so well done. The first time I seen it, it was in them movie and i thought it was real.

[@jamesherrington5606]

Me too

[@retrovideoquest]

Same, and I always wondered "How on earth did they do THAT??!"

[@soundmorozov]

Eva Green - ❤!

[@peponeslotproject8748]

It's great to see the other side of the movie shooting and I'd like it. Thanks a lot for sharing it with us.

[@leopolitan1914]

I still remember my whole self freezing over, when Vesper took that first gulp of water and the subsequent moments.

[@elisabethj.v.beardsell9853]

Daniel Craig with his blue eyes❤

[@catastrophic009]

Absolutely brilliant !

[@sircassian5568]

I HATED THE DROWNING SCENE .....I LOVED THE MOVIE

[@rbcrain2469]

Great scene, great movie. The foot chase scene in the beginning of the movie was epic

[@coretanmrs]

The set is real, the building is real..... ohhhh

[@vaslav030547]

Incredible!

[@fordshaw5833]

The way Eva can hold her breath makes me wonder if she spear fishes or did free diving.

[@graysonhydesoto]

this is the coolest video i've ever seen

[@thefilmandmusic]

Absolutely brilliant work

[@sirinatridhi1832]

Oh! I think it's real building. You all are superb.

[@leemathis6053]

One of the scariest scenes I've ever seen, Eva Green is an incredible beautiful woman whew

[@debbiecrankin]

This was the best one

[@vonsauerkraut]

Skyfall

[@BeeeHonest]

OMG almost 18 years ago!

[@mrlister2000]

In the movie, when Vesper is in the flooded lift and grabs hold of Bond's hand, you can see the outline of where she had the face mask on!

[@aurelie2215]

Incroyable des miniatures je croyais que c'était des images de synthèse

[@b_altmann]

For anyone wondering why this Bond film was rather good: Casino Royale is based on a book by Fleming, unlike what followed. They should remake the others as they have run out of ideas, clearly

[@karlkarlos3545]

If you think that basing a movie on a book by Fleming automatically makes it better, Diamonds Are Forever and The Man with the Golden Gun would like to have a word. I know, those are basically adaptations in name only, but mostly because the original books are not very cinematic. The same could be said about the original Casino Royale book, by the way, which brings us back to your argument. The filmmakers and scriptwriters are the key to the success of a film, not the book it's based on.

[@karlkarlos3545]

​@@b_altmann "Not basing a 007 film on a book by Fleming does't make it automatically a good film" That's not my argument at all. You said it was good because it's based on a Fleming book. Which I argued can't be the only reason since there are many bond movies based on his books that are not actually good. And most of Fleming's writing wasn't that great to begin with.

[@dmann1115]

A long time ago, I read somewhere that Ian Fleming sold the film rights without including the actual plots. I.e., the characters could be used, but not the story lines. So none of the films actually followed the books in the conventional way.

[@redstrat1234]

Pretty remarkable.

[@tj-kv6vr]

NO CGI just talent

[@epposh]

good CGI is also talent! that's why (more than 30 years later) CGI in Terminator 2 still holds up nicely

[@JohnKelleher-xy1hv]

Absolutely as it should be

[@JohnKelleher-xy1hv]

CGI sucks it looks fake

[@kirill12326]

The Best!

[@sircinelot6791]

Yeah!

[@MrLewooz]

Americans thinks now that in Venice the water is clean.... Well done!

[@mistermister8998]

I imagine this scene is where a large chunk of the budget was spent

[@historynerd2677]

Neat

[@sircinelot6791]

=)

[@JonasSahlstrom1]

Thank you for not choosing CGI.

[@johngallagher4280]

That was very insensitive of her to say... "It was quite relaxing to drown."

[@Useaname]

Man up

[@henriccarlsson9052]

So sad the end result looks like 100% CGI 😢

[@jenhasken]

I really dislike CGI but that wasn’t my impression at all, have you seen the movie?

[@dominicbuckley8309]

Yet they never explained WHY the palazzo would be sinking, as buildings in Venice (as everywhere else) are not afloat, but built on land. Nor HOW an entire palazzo (even if it were floating) could fully submerge when the water in the Grand Canal is only about 3m deep.

[@joerngrossblotekamp]

Yes, good movie but this is nonsense.

[@motolab.EuropeanMotorcycles]

Tbh in ALL 007 movies, a lot of things happened, which are beyond explanation, so why should this event be explained? Never bothered me tbh.

[@PhilippeDoyleGray]

Goldeneye’s opening sequence is the most preposterous, as James Bond starts on top of a dam and works his way downwards through the chemical factory and ends up riding his motorcycle off a mountaintop cliff with the mountain peaks in the background, meaning the water behind the dam was higher than the mountaintops! A sinking building in Venice is nothing.

[@imaprinta]

Read an interesting explanation (or hypothesis) as to what happened in this scene. The ballasts that Bond shot are used to float the buildings in Venice when work is being done on the post foundations or they are being replaced. When the ballasts deflated, the old building sank into the mud several feet below and the building collapsed on itself, accordion style, similar to the Twin Towers on 9/11. Is this true? Who knows - but its a feasible explanation, I guess.

[@davidthomson692]

Who cares. It’s how much you are gripped by the whole movie/scenes,music etc. I grew up watching 007 with my dad they are fabulous movies

[@lmenascojr]

I want to know if anyone peed on set.

[@Екатерина-ц9ч7я]

коктейль мохито

[@danger-seeker]

this is why such movies have a budget of 200 mio. you think this was real.

[@Екатерина-ц9ч7я]

hygge арома саше абсент 14

[@vipassana72]

is the answer distrustfully? privately schooled crews don't do it for me.

[@LUC66631]

And all for a stupid movie 🙄🙄🤦‍♂🤦‍♂👎👎

[@robertgarner11]

The CGI was so poor it spoilt the film. The effects were as bad as Die Another Day.

[@drxym]

It's weird how a practical shot of a miniature ends up looking like crappy CG.

[@willhemmings]

I have never seen an onscreen structure take so long to collapse (the sinking Palazzo). It crumbles and a few cracks appear. Cut to some interior action. A bit more crumbles outside. There may be time to evacuate the city from the deluge! Another thirty seconds pass, something falls off the top, followed by some more frantic action inside and I swear the bit that just fell has gone back a foot! I know the problem - it's called EXAGERRATED EFFECT, so that the audience is in no doubt that this is a very special and very expensive effect. But it's not convincing. The scene should have played out in real time and the interior action edited to match. For a convincing real time special effect, watch the car crash in No Country for Old Men. YES

[@quixote5986]

I also thought it took way too long and almost painfully longed out

[@SB111058]

You Twit! Its a action fantasy like all the other Bonds!

[@alfiospuson7165]

Brao brao

[@bryanflores8035]
