Tabloid nut urges release date change to avoid bad luck

14-May-2008 • Quantum Of Solace

A top psychic has urged the producers of the new James Bond movie 'Quantum of Solace' to change the Hallowe'en release date of the film - or risk encouraging more bad luck, reports IOL.

Dean 'Midas' Maynard, who uses supernatural powers to help British sports teams and celebrities over slumps, has offered his help to 007 Daniel Craig and the cast and crew of the film.

He believes the recent accidents, which have dogged the Bond sets in South America and Europe, are part of a curse that hangs over the film.

And he insists Amy Winehouse's run of bad luck - with two arrests in two weeks - is linked to the Bond curse, because she has been recording a potential theme for Quantum of Solace.

Maynard says: "The movie set suffered three car crashes in five days, one critical and a technician working on the movie was stabbed with a steak knife in a domestic dispute on Tuesday.

"It's clear what is going on here and I would be honoured to come to the help of James Bond and help the team get things back on track.

"People may scoff at the talk of a curse, but it seems strange that all these bad things have happened in such a short space of time, and perhaps it's something to do with the Hallowe'en release date of the film."
