- description: (my response) The Queen of England made her film debut in style, getting escorted to the Olympics by James Bond and parachuting into Olympic Stadium from a helicopter in a short film shown at Friday night's Opening Ceremony. Movie magic was responsible for the death-defying jump -- both Bond actor Daniel Craig and the 86-year-old monarch were portrayed by stunt doubles for the live shot, of course. But that was indeed Queen Elizabeth sitting in her quarters, welcoming James Bond and accepting his invitation to the Olympics in Danny Boyle's three-minute film. It was believed to be the Queen's first ever appearance in a movie. Boyle and his crew were given unprecedented access to her quarters for the one-day shoot in April. Nitpickers will point out that the film showed Bond and the Queen leaving in daylight and arriving at nightfall. But, come on. The Queen parachuted out of a helicopter! They could have left in a Mini Cooper and arrived in a rickshaw and it wouldn't have mattered. Bond wasn't the only character of film and literature to make an appearance at the Opening Ceremony. Mary Poppins, Lord Voldemort and Mr. Bean were all featured prominently in Danny Boyle's abstract salute to England. This is my response to video of James Bond and Queen Elizabeth parachuting into the stadium for the opening ceremony of the 2012 summer olympics in London England. Note: This is a response video.
