Yeah, I kind of get pissed off by that. I mean, CDMX is almost as grey during good part of the year as London and yet they always paint it sepia. I was born and raised in Mexico CIty and we get rain a good part of the year (this year being a notable exception BTW) Cheers!

[@fitzgeraldanthony9333]

This was one of the best opening scenes in not just a Bond movie but any action film. I enjoyed Specter. It isn't anywhere near as abysmal as some are trying to claim. Roger Moore and Connery produced several ghastly films between them that were incredibly bad to the point You had to wonder if Parody was the true intent of them. Specter may not have been as seamless as Skyfall but overall it checked off a lot of boxes and kept you in suspense right up until the end. Out of the 5 movies Craig participated in 4 were very entertaining work with 3 of them( Casino Royal, Skyfall and No Time to Die)being downright brilliant. Craig brought a Soul to Bond and portrayed him with a substance and depth that neither Connery, Moore and the Wooden Brosnan were capable of doing. Craig will certainly be missed because he raises the bar considerably.

[@BigDawger1987]

Amen to that!!

[@giusepped3678]

Agreed. I thought Spectre was mostly great and can't understand why everyone hates it.

[@billmurray7676]

Yes it's a great opening scene, the problem is that the rest of the movie never tops it, especially the soporific car chase and the sad and flat desert compound explosion. Spectre also has a boringly plain looking Bond girl.

[@ghost.patrols]

I agree that Spectre isn’t nearly as bad as some people will tell you. However, it’s pretty weak when compared to Skyfall and I think the fact that it didn’t live up to its predecessor really skewed a lot of people’s view on it.

[@elysium540]

Spectre is a great movie with fantastic locations, good pacing and a well written story. Skyfall was so overhyped that most fans didn't gave Spectre a chance at all. Casino Royale is still the best one with Craig though...

[@chorlauheung4920]

The opening sequence in Spectre is a culmination of several, similar scenes from previous Bond films. There is the Dia De Los Muertos scene which resembles the Mardi Gras scene in "Live and Let Die." The rooftop sniper scene is reminiscent of the sniper scene where Timothy Dalton's Bond attempts to assassinate Sanchez in "Licence to Kill." And, finally, the helicopter fight sequence has elements of Roger Moore's Bond in "For Your Eyes Only," during which he battles to gain control of the aerial vehicle as piloted by Blofeld.

[@anthonylewis2080]

Good observation : as No Time To Die is Craig's last movie as 007 (as reported) there might be a "spot the difference" game with scenes that pay homage to previous episodes - Including 2015's SPECTRE.

Depends. The reason behind the decision was that cinemas in major markets like China, Japan, and South Korea fully shut down. If that is not the case in November they might as well release the movie. The damage is already done in any case, and postponing it further would only make sense if some major markets are still shut down at the time. That can, of course, change daily.

I love how the Mexican theme converts seamlessly into bond’s traditional theme as soon as Craig steps out onto the ledge. As he walks confidently towards his target the bond theme expands. What an incredible opening sequence; visual storytelling that transitions into an action sequence whilst reintroducing bond to the audience. Filmmaking to perfection.

Second, the skulls you see aren't even la llorona 🙄, that's called a catrina, meant to criticize the high society and upper class of the old time as cruel people unti Diego Rivera created a mural popularizing the catrina symbol, a skeleton dressed in fancy clothes.

I heard the celebrations here were fictitious, but later inspired the real thing.

Dia de los muertos? LMAO that's never been fictitious it's always been celebrated.

[@Alkonium]

@@MrShroomed Obviously. It was the parade that was fictitious, even if what it was celebrating was real.

I love when he tosses the hat onto the bed... it was probably unintentional but it remind me of Sean Connery’s Bond tossing his hat on the coatrack whenever he went to M’s office

Or when Johnny English tries to do it.

Don't see too many people mentioning that from the beginning to 3:13 is one damn continuous shot.

For Daniel Craig, the remit for Spectre was simple. "We wanted to be better than Skyfall," he says. "It is as simple as that. We didn't have a choice; we had to be bigger and better. With Skyfall, we set something a bit more." In the new movie, the world's most famous secret agent is an entirely proactive character, in control of his own destiny. He has a focused mission from the outset and nothing, and no one, is going to stand in his way. Courtesy: The Telegraph Kolkata Sunday 1 November 2015 Vol: XXXIV No: 113.
