A license to insure

This week, Spectre is finally launching onto screens in the UK. James Bond is back in the follow-up to Skyfall and we will once again see him jet to exotic locations, meet beautiful women, drink Martinis and, of course, drive the most stunning and expensive cars.

Can you imagine what it costs to insure James Bond when he’s out trying to save the world? Kwik Fit Insurance Services have come up with an insurance bill for Q and he’s not going to like this! Poor Q, all he does is work hard and does his bit in saving the world. How is he thanked? By having Bond ruin his efforts in more and more spectacular ways. Take a look at the incredible breakdown below of what Bond has done and the cars to insure. Unbelievable Bond, you truly have a license to rack up high insurance bills!

Keep. It. Reel.

30 Trailer Challenge: Trailer 13.

Now I’ve let these trailers slide a little. Sorry about that. However, it’s back. A new trailer which I have been waiting for. Skyfall has arrived. From the looks of it yes, it has some typical Bond scenes but you have to expect that. But it also looks different. It looks like it will change things for Bond and for the franchise. Take a look for yourselves and let me know what you think. I must admit I’m exicted, very exited.

The names fall, Skyfall. The new poster for 007.

The hype that surrounds each and every new Bond film isn’t entirely surprising, despite the fact they normally turn out to be the same full throttle, action packed flick. Though some are worse than others. There is the pride of British film making within a Bond film, as well as an at least partly British cast with whoever happens to be playing James Bond as well as M. However this time around, the hype feels fair and right. Daniel Craig returns as Bond with Judi Dench once again playing M but this time there is a somewhat famous face behind the camera in the shape of Sam Mendes director of American Beauty and Road to Perdition. We also have Ralph Fiennes, Javier Bardem and Naomie Harris bringing their superb talents to the 007 screen. Whilst I hate to get bogged down in such extensive publicity for a film which w haven’t even seen a trailer for yet, it’s hard not to get excited by such talent! So have a look at the new poster, simple as it is, but undeniably classic Bond.
