Yep, They're Calling Bond (2)3 Skyfall
Thu, November 3, 2011 
As filming begins today (straight from the mouth of Daniel Craig), the Broccolis threw the big press conference shindig for the twenty-third James Bond cinematic adventure. Among the confirmed tidbits included Skyfall as the film's official title, the logo and confirmation of Javier Bardem, Naomie Harris, Berenice Marlohe, Ralph Fiennes and Albert Finney to the cast as leaked by the UK tabloids.
You fellas don't wanna read the whole damn press release. Hence here's the only interesting thing to come from it; the albeit vague plot synopsis:
"In Skyfall, Bond's loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost."
I'm sticking to my guns that Judi Dench's M eats a led sandwich and her death is the spark getting Bond in trouble.
The only other real highlights (not including all those ass-kissy "My fondest memories as a kid is seeing Bond movies with my family" type quotes because, come on folks, we hear that every time at these events) is Harris is playing a field agent named Eve with no referencing of her working at M's offices flirting with 007 as the new Moneypenny. Then again...I don't recall us ever getting her first name. So yeah, connect the dots. And as usual after a film or two of being "different," they're going back to the tried and true formula of the franchise. Skyfall will be a self-contained installment and not a continuation of the story arc from Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace.
