... add that CR Aston Martin wreck with the cam/vial and we have a deal.
But the watch will be too large for you - I have already told ya
well in that case it'll have to be an omega speedmaster reduced then, obviously a smaller watch will mean less in return, so just a camera and vial it is then? :v
Man, this chaps my arse! As far as I can remember nobody on this forum went into a tailspin. In fact I believe we all called this a press beatup where no story existed.

Oh, I don't know, Carson. . .at least one member here ranted and raged about Heineken. . .
as with all things People and fans, WE all have different standards ( not better or worse, simply different )
Some fans would be happy to have Bond sell any old rubbish ( so long as it helped pay for the film )
while others feel having Bond sell any old rubbish, belittles the series, and are not so Happy. :007)
Although from what I've read of this advert it is nowhere near as Bad as I thought it would be.

The biggest non-issue in the film series, in my opinion. Brand names are as old as the novels themselves; if anything, it affirms the DNA from which Cinematic Bond first sprang.

So, if Bond had ordered a bottle of Antarctic Nail Ale -- which at $800 a bottle is the world's most expensive beer -- you wouldn't have a problem (apparently it's brewed using Antarctic ice).

Fleming had Bond living the good life, even having Bond spending
money he couldn't really afford to get the Best. Where as Heineken is
a plain Bland mass market product. As I've already stated I'm sure many
would be pefectly happy to see Bond order a Bargin Bucket, washed down
with a warm Heineken as he takes a luck lady to the nearest Howard Johnson. )

So, when Fleming had Bond drinking Miller, Löwenbrau and Redstripe, it was only because Fleming himself didn't know any better beers?
I think the key here is, that in the novels it is stated both that Bond "was not a gourmand" and that he has an exact taste for what he likes "old maidish, really". So if Bond wants a light but refreshing lager, the Heineken is right up his alley.
I really don't get this "if Bond has it it has to be expensive" -thing.
Think about it for a moment; martini was originally developed to make bathtub gin more palatable. It is not luxury to have a martini, everybody made martinis in the '60s.

And consider how Craig has gone from being a pre-Bond North London indie-luuvvie via watch salesman to "I'll flog owt" (as long as I'm paid) sales rep.

The Coca Cola company today announced a new collaboration between Coca Cola Zero and Skyfall with the theme 'Unlock the 007 in you'. The marketing campaign will include TV and cinema advertising, a digital and social media campaign, and promotion on packaging.
Does anyone else think that, with Bond's (and other characters') mobile phone use, the makers of SF have gone in the opposite direction? There is NO indication whatsoever so far of what phone any of the characters use, and I can't help wonder why they gave Bond a Secret Service-esque wired earpiece in so many scenes (or so it seems from the spy shots and trailers).
With Sony jettisoning Ericsson and needing to promote Sony Mobile (all while facing increasing losses), wouldn't they have pushed harder to show Bond using the latest phone (Xperia T or Mint as rumored) so fans would get in line to buy it?
Am I wrong to think they may have just shown some restraint here after CR/QoS, what do you think?

A clue to the mobile Bond might be using could be..........
Sony had an offer with the xperia, which came with the Bond dvd Box set.
so he could be using one of them. )
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
Who cares that EON gets big bucks from companies to have Bond use their products in the films. Would it be better if everything he used was generic. Nobody seems to have an issue with the expensive watches he wears. Complete non-issue for me.
Bond's been all about marketing and products since the Connery days. Remember the aftershave, the toys, the giant beach towels. It a good thing IMO that these companies are falling all over themselves to have their products be seen in a Bond film...it means that Bond is still relevant and will continue to be relevant and that means we will keep getting Bond films. -{

Props and proper gadgets interest me, your daft camera and an off the shelf bit of product placement doesn't really do it for me.
Now shut it about that bloody camera, unless you've got me that steinhart in which case I'm all ears ;%
