    Wow, I thought they'd gone back to Lotus. I apologise, I was totally off-base on that one.

    No problem! Yeah, I think part of it was that deal they also had for the other vehicles in the movie (Jaguar's sister brand Land Rover with the Defender and Range Rover Sport SVR).

    Yeah it was a CX-75 concept Jaguar. Lotus' bodyshape at the moment is pretty telling:

    Christoph Waltz is again stating that he will not be back as Blofeld

    Since he's said it before, too, I guess it's probably true... but he also said that he was only playing Oberhauser, not Blofeld, before Spectre came out. There's probably nothing to hide anymore, but on the other hand it makes me wonder where they'll go with the story if Blofeld is not in it, given how Spectre ended. And with Craig back and the recent movies having more focus on continuity (less likely these days to keep having different actors play Blofeld), it's puzzling.

    I mean, constantly re-casting Blofeld is practically a series tradition at this point, so I'm not too surprised by this.

    Or we just forget that turgid abortion of a film ever existed? I'm ok with this, even at the cost of Madeline Swan.

    Just "Dr. Claw" Blofeld like they did in Inspector Gadget.

    And give all the screen time to Blofeld's cat. What's James Bond without a little more pussy galore?

    Or you know... go back to Quantum, who were vastly more relevant to our world than the cackling evil of SPECTRE?

    That would actually be a really good way to do it. Just Blofeld's hand, as an homage to earlier films and a way around wanting the character in and not wanting to recast like they used to do. They'd have to have him die in this one, though, since it wouldn't work for more than one movie.
    Spectre (the movie) already tried to tie them together anyway, so they could kind of ride that connection back to a story more focused on Quantum style shenanigans.

    I mean, just entirely forget Spectre, and deal with the Quantum mop up. I mean, you can still have spectre rise from the ashes of quantum...

    Maybe in the next movie, we'll find out that Blofeld's cat is really the evil genius behind Spectre. Also, that Blofeld's cat and Bond's cat were siblings from the same litter.

    Yes, turn Blofeld into a black lesbian Muslim, that would satisfy the Americans for a few minutes, as they struggle to understand why the entire history of class in Britain dictates Bond must be white but their experience says "all colours for all pls".

    Actually political correctness would demand that Bond be turned into a black lesbian Muslim and the villain be a handsome, well spoken, white middle aged male.
