TND decoding

Tom, Dan, Mike, another great decoded pre title sequence.

I'd forgotten the Hong Kong angle until you guys reminded me. I'm glad they dropped that as this manipulative media mogul storyline is more timeless.

This may have been a writing nightmare with the numerous rewrites, but it is my favourite Brosnan. Possibly because of the underhand media and Jonathan Pryce's OTT delivery. Having watched it on the Big Screen earlier this year, I had a massive grin for days afterwards.
