Cutlist

-Movie begins in media res on the battle aboard the train. Everthing preceeding that has been cut, we learn why things happen throughtout the film anyway.

-“Skyfall” by Adele cut, replaced by “The World” by Sela Sue. Skyfall titles slightly trimmed so the new song fits.

-Glimpses into life during Bond’s exile abroad is cut

-Bond’s talk with the psychologist cut after he calls M a “bitch”

-Bond and Q’s banter at the museum cut entirely. Q’s there on strict buisness, hands Bond what he needs, and leaves

-Battle at the Casino is cut

-Sex scene in the shower cut

-Train crash cut

-M’s death cut, scene in the church ends on a bit of Bond wit

-References to M’s will being read out by Moneypenny cut, it’s implied she simply retires as her job’s done.
