Skyfall......I had no idea!



A shot from the rooftop motorcycle chase in Skyfall.

Believe it or not, this is our very own Nicky Hayden!

lol yea it wasnt daniel craig...what surprised me is not only is the stunt real, no helmets either, fall and your fudged they featured on Top Gear here in the UK where they spoke to the stunt guys, it was the ex 'stig'(guy in the full white gear that always does the lap times for the new cars they test) that taught daniel craig to drive

I want to know how much he was paid...to race along rooftops with no helmet, imagine the insurance on that head of his...

Yeah, I was surprised when I found out it was Nicky, I'm like wait Ducati didn't have a problem with this??? No gear not even a helmet AND on rooftops??
Yeah, Ben Collins (ex stig) was the primary driving professional behind the scenes.

It's a great movie, very well done but am i the only one that expected more from Skyfall?
Of course, speaking as an average Joe, not a professional critic or hardcore fan...

I will see it again when it comes out on BD but i really wanted more of fast cars, action/adventure, crazy car chases, gadgets, gorgeous women and other great visuals throughout the movie. It started amazing, including all of this but then it just kinda died and turned into drama for awhile.

We saw DB-5 for five seconds. Can't wait for DB-6 ;)

Sorry if i disappoint some of you but i really liked Casino Royale better then Skyfall

Now that i had my chance to rant a little, i'll say it again...It's good, done with great passion for the character and the whole story - go see it!

BTW i cant wait to see what Q comes up with next

I would have said almost the exact same thing Fly.

Casino Royale is still my favorite Bond movie. Skyfall started great and then it changed halfway through, the focus on drama was a bit profound given it is a Bond movie, but maybe because it addresses his relationships they did it that way. But definitely expected way more Skyfall. Severin was the only one I found attractive, they could have definitely improved the eye candy offering in my opinion. Eva Green in Casino Royale was great because she wasn't just attractive, her character was so complementary to Bond's and it was great to watch their trials and tribulations.

According to IMDB trivia, the stunt motocross rider is Nicky Hayden, maybe they hired two.

surprisingly i feel the opposite. I definitely loved casino royale... like a lot! loved the high tech toys/spy esque feeling.. but i kinda liked the down to earth aspect skyfall gave. not giving anything away but it's like okay first half is some fancy smancy spy stuff then second half is when we get to see bond roll up his sleeves and show how badas5 and able to improvise. pretty much, "we got a house... and thats it" lol. lets make do
