James Bond Will Come back With Action


If the new James Bond movie, Bond 23, is shot at the Dudh Sagar waterfall in Goa, India, Daniel Craig and the crew will have to extra careful.

Locals think of the waterfall as a guardian spirit, and have a list of dos and don’ts that need to be followed near it.

Social historians say that the waterfall (whose name means 'Sea of Milk'), is regarded as a fear-invoking deity who residents of nearby villages regard as a protector. There’s also a temple in its honour in the area. As per the rules followed, people are not supposed to spit near the waterfall or throw non-vegetarian food in the water or shout and scream loudly.

The alternative location for the stunt sequence, which apparently involves Daniel Craig jumping off the train with the waterfall in the backdrop, is in the Indian state of Gujarat. We sense a tourist pique coming on...

James Bond Will Return: Sony To Distribute 'Bond 23' & 'Bond 24'

Sony Pictures Entertainment has saved James Bond. With MGM, the studio will co-finance, theatrically market and distribute Bond 23 worldwide, announced MGM Co-Chairman and Chief Executive Officers Gary Barber and Roger Birnbaum and Sony Pictures Chairman and CEO Michael Lynton and Co-Chairman Amy Pascal. Bond 23, the next film in the franchise, will release on November 9, 2012. Bond 24 has no specific date, but will be co-financed by Sony and MGM in a similar manner. Great news? Of course. 

But unfortunately, this news also means that males like myself will have to see Daniel Craig in a swimsuit again, which will undoubtedly make our girlfriends/wives/partners look at us during the film as we sloppily toss greasy popcorn into our mouths and comment about each "sweet-ass" explosion and wonder just what the hell they're doing with our sorry asses.

Sam Mendes will direct this latest installment, with franchise regular Judi Dench reprising her role as M.

Model Lowe wants to be a Bond girl

The British model Daisy Lowe admits she has some ambitions to be an actress and would love to land a role in one of the movies about iconic British spy James Bond, who is currently played by Daniel Craig.
She said: "I would love, love, love to be a Bond girl. That's a goal, isn't it?"

Daisy - who is currently dating 'Doctor Who' star Matt Smith - also admitted she used to be "obsessed" with Justin Timberlake and seeing some of his recent work has reignited her crush on the singer-and-actor.
She told You magazine: "It was always Justin Timberlake. I was obsessed with him. I watched him in 'The Social Network' and it was reignited - 'I want to marry you!' "

The 22-year-old beauty - the daughter of Gavin Rossdale and Pearl Lowe - says her mother has been the biggest influence in her life and she even feels grateful to have been told to get a job while she was still at school.
She added: "My mum is amazing, she's incredibly creative - I remember her drawing pictures of flowers when I was a child - and she has taught me such a lot. And she was always good at teaching me to be independent. Aged 14 I had a Saturday job in Agent Provocateur on Broadwick Street in London."

Even James Bond 23 was a little bit Irish yesterday

English actor Daniel Craig, best known as Her Majesty's top secret Agent 007, had a license to party yesterday as he paid a visit to Archbishop Timothy Dolan for the 250th annual St. Patrick's Day Parade.

The pair chatted outside St. Patrick's Cathedral as the temperatures climbed into the 60s and bathed the 200,000 marchers and estimated 2 million parade spectators in a balmy bath of blarney. "St. Patrick really shone down bright on us today, with blue skies, beautiful weather and great friends," said the Rev.

Jim Drew, 62, who came from County Cork in Ireland to watch the festivities. The parade kicked off at Fifth Avenue and 44th Street, with author and Bronx native Mary Higgins Clark acting as the grand marshal for the historic sestercentennial edition of the parade.

The route went past St. Patrick's Cathedral and ended at 79th Street -- seven blocks shorter than previous years because of city cost-cutting measures that have shortened all parades. It was the only gray cloud over the festivities. "I don't think they should have done that on the 250th anniversary," said paradegoer Gigi Mancini, 51, of Eastchester. "It's our anniversary." Still many of the marchers didn't appear to mind the change. "We pass down pride in our heritage and culture, generation after generation," said Mae O'Driscoll, of Marine Park, Brooklyn, who marched with the New York County Cork Association.

"It's not just about green beer and green hair. It's about a saint named Patrick." There were few incidents reported at the parade, and only two arrests for disorderly conduct.

Brendan Storz, 21, of West Babylon, LI, who says he plays on a hockey team called the Irish Car Bombs, planned on partying it up. "I probably will go home with a hangover," he said. "Today is all about friends, happiness and alcohol."
