Spectre: 7 Most Compelling Pieces Of Evidence That Christoph Waltz Is Blofeld

2. The CGI Photos Leak

Here's further proof that Christoph Waltz isn't being totally honest with us: photographs from the set of the movie clearly show him with dots all over his face... the kind used to denote that computer-generated imagery will be factored into a shot in post-production. What, possibly, could said CGI dots tell us about Franz Oberhauser, then? How about that Franz Oberhauser is a mere alias? That it's just a name that Blofeld uses in order to tease and taunt Bond? Another attempt for the iconic villain to "author" some more pain and send it 007's way? Because in previous Bond movies, Blofeld admitted to using plastic surgery to trick Bond and hide his identity - could these revelations also be hinted at in Spectre, in which Waltz reveals a different physical look part-way through the flick? That considered, what else could those dots mean? Well, they could also signal towards Blofeld's iconic scar that runs the length of his forehead and across his eye - one that Bond could deliver during the course of the film, perhaps? In this day and age, it would be a lot easier for the filmmakers to add a scar in post-production, after all. And, of course, the addition of said scar would ultimately prove that Waltz was, indeed, playing Blofeld. Above all, the sight of these CGI dots goes a long way to proving that something isn't right; that we haven't been told everything about Franz Oberhauser, and that there are still major details to be unveiled. Looking at those dots, you simply can't help but smell a rat.
