Portrait of Robert Brown M in Ralph Fiennes M's Office


Just a fun Easter Egg, or an implication of something more?

reply

Bond drove a DB5. Fun Easter egg? Or something more?

Virtually everything in the movie was fan service and should be taken with a grain of salt.

reply

You're right, however the DB5 is a classic car that exist outside of the world of 20th Century Bond films, as far as I know there have been no high ranking officials in MI6 who look exactly like actor Robert Brown outside of the fictional Bond films of the 1980s.

It didn’t make sense to me. The Craig films have no connection with the films from 1962 -2002. It’s a continuity error

reply

Thus the reason it makes no sense for him to keep saying “we have all the time in the world

reply

Yeah but Craig’s version of Bond is a new timeline so he can say it. But the portrait of Robert Brown didn’t make sense lol

reply

"We have all the time in the world" is Bond and Tracy's love theme. Tracy does not exist in this continuity and Bond was never married to her, so no it doesn't make sense.

reply

They borrowed elements from On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. They borrowed the theme as Swann is basically Craig’s Tracy. But the Robert Brown portrait didn’t make sense

I thought it was Winston Churchill

Alternate universe version like Dench was

think of Bonds 1-20 as the 'Bond Prime'-verse (possible different universes with each change of 007 maybe) and Bonds 21-25 as the 'Craig-verse'

and i guess theres also the 'NeverSayNever-verse' and the 'CasinoRoyale67-verse'
