Why did they have to go to so much trouble to deliver his name is such a complicated manner?

Since the whole opening action bit leads to deciphering the book code (fantastic!) which yields, "Blofeld" it would be nice to get these answers.

In addition to this, I have other unresolved questions, like who "outed" Blofeld in the first place and why. More significant, it's not quite clear to me what Blofeld's plan is and why it's so important to stop him now. He's a little bit too willing to get his hands dirty, perhaps. Well, maybe not as small potatoes as that, but not exactly the overlord who reigns over all these evildoers. He feels like the African version of the bad South American General from QOS. The Blofeld reveal and who he turns out to be is underwhelming. I'm just repeating what HM has said, but it's the area that probably needs to most attention: John will have to pay careful attention to connecting the dots in a strong way for this to be truly convincing. The idea that Blofeld was involved with the plots and villains of each of the last 3 movies is interesting…right now it feels like a bit of a stretch. Love the idea that their is a mole in MI-6 and it turns out to be Tanner. Here are a few thoughts as you discuss with Sam, John and those in the bubble: I agree with Hannah…a lot of big ideas that are exciting and fun and great opportunities for romance, action and plot reversals.

He has to be a serious threat in this movie – with a big enough plan for Bond to thwart – to help support his uber villain status.Ĭan't wait to hear how the showdown re: the ending plays out tomorrow! If we're pulling all the threads together and saying this was all part of a bigger play then we need to know what that was and how all those moments led to this… and if he was the villain behind the last three movies but we never knew that then I wonder how hard we have to work to get the audience to remember/rethink the past and attribute all their (and Bond's) animosity towards him. So here's the big question – what was Blofeld's big plan? Blowing up the Nato event and causing the blackout doesn't seem that much worse than prior villain plots. How did Tanner add onto Q's "smart blood" without Q knowing? Can it be remotely accessed? Love "stop him… the man who killed the people we love". Love bringing all these threads together. Love going from cold and snow to hot and exotic Tangier. As is Bond giving Charlotte a wound to her face further turning her into a cool Bond villain. Great twist when Callo turns the conversation back to Bond and then Charlotte turns on both of them. Love the setting of Rome and the "death mask ball" Love the idea of "smart blood" and "bio-espionage".

Great idea to team Bond up with Charlotte King (female CIA agent) and to go undercover as husband and wife. Interesting idea to create tension between Moneypenny and Tanner. Is this Bond's last mission? It's a great hook for the movie. Opening – is it odd to have M in the field? I like it but does it fit the stature of his position? A few minor notes below and then a bigger question about Blofeld's plan… The idea of a "last mission" feels like it's a good hook but hard to tell from the outline how this plays out from Bond's pov and where the emotional resolution lies (but that's all tied to the ending decision). Great locations and opportunities for signature action.

In October 2013, Sony's Hannah Mingella was writing, But along the way it went through a number of changes, Once upon a time, the film was nicknamed Bond 24 or B24.
