The large distinction, within the thoughts of the director, is simply how a lot time he needed to work on every.<\/p>\n<p>You might recall that proper as \u201cSkyfall\u201d was set to start manufacturing, the whole lot got here to a screeching halt as monetary woes at <strong>MGM<\/strong> had been a priority. This led to just about a yr of downtime the place Mendes and his collaborators might actually hone in on what they wished \u201cSkyfall\u201d to seem like. Unfortunately, that type of luxurious of time was not afforded him when he wanted to do the sequel, \u201cSpectre.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese movies are very difficult to write,\u201d he defined. \u201cThose 10 months of downtime, that\u2019s when the script really turned around, because we had the time to go down blind alleys and try things like the [Bond\/Silva team-up]. And that time was not afforded to me when we made \u2018Spectre.\u2019 And you can see the difference in the script. [With \u2018Spectre\u2019], I felt there was some pressure. Certainly [producers <strong>Barbara<\/strong> <strong>Broccoli<\/strong> and <strong>Michael G. Wilson<\/strong>] exerted some pressure on me and Daniel to make the next one, so that makes a big difference.
