Bond, James Bond

Well it's here the new James Bond film - Spectre, and I am so excited! Seeing James Bond in London, in England!!

I hadn't even considered the possibility of seeing a bond film here, but as fate would have it I've managed it.

The first signs of this possibility was way back in January , day 1 of 2015 when the first pictures emerged of the crew shooting on the Thames.

No one at work seems to understand the epicness of seeing a bond film in his home country, but the rest of England does.

It's slowly been building up with some interviews here and there and Sam Smith releasing the main song. In the last week it's ramped up with Daniel Craig appearing in TimeOut, the cast appearing on Graham Norton and me buying my ticket - haha.

Tonight is the world premier at the Royal Albert Hall. Dutifully I headed on down ticking off two items in my bucket list - 1. See be there and 2. Seeing a movie red carpet premier.

The red carpet began at 5pm with it being live screened on YouTube. It said the stars would arrived at 5:15pm and right on cue , none other then the man himself Mr Bond appeared.

I thought that was good, none of this drawing it out and making people wait business. He was there, ready to go.

I watched there until I could leave work at 5:30pm and head over. It was packed out, of course. I walk all around the Royal Albert Hall getting glimpses here and there. I was fully pumped for Tuesday night.

On Tuesday Claire and I went to see Bond. We bought tickets earlier in the week as we had discounts from work. It was just epic! The cinema was full, the atmosphere pretty good and the movie awesome! The first scene in Mexico was just epic!! Just go for that scene alone I think haha.

Being so excited, I decided to go again, on my own this time. I went on the following Monday night at a cinema in Mile End called Genesis Cinema. It is possibly one of the coolest cinema I have come across. It had a nice bar upstairs with the local company Pieminster having their own shack serving pies, they were playing Casino Royale in one area. Downstairs was another bar and pop corn place with a further area serving coffee and cakes.

When I came down to buy my ticket on Sunday the outdoor area had people sitting there enjoy the sun and a gin and tonic. It was a place to come and drink and not watch films as much as it was about the films. And the best bit, on Mondays and Wednesdays you only pay E4!
