Yummy! Love the look of it, and the sound of it (is that all new stuff - it's fresh).

Very much looking forward to this now. Should be great!

It definitely looks very different from any previous Bond film.

Well, it does remind me of DAD with some bits, the shaving, the pyjamas or whatever it's supposed to be he's wearing when he's questioned. Not in a bad way though, to the contrary.

Yes, almost like a "re-make" of Die Another Day, only they did it properly this time.

Some beautiful shots and vivid colours. Roger Deakins really is superb.

I guess the website was overloaded with people trying to view the trailer cause it took me about 5 to 10 minutes till the page loaded up probably.

There's one line of dialogue I'm unsure about. Does Bond say, "We're going to kill them first" or "They're going to kill M first"...I think it's the latter, but I'm not 100% certain.

The blue PJs are in fact a FCO tracksuit and its a real time issue, i have seen a couple people wear them before. For those who served in British Army it is similar to the issued tracksuits of the 90s

"Some men are coming to kill us. We're going to kill them first." That's exactly what Daniel says.

Ah, thanks! That explains some of it, haven't seen these often before.

I hadn't bothered with the website. I just found it on YouTube.

Just about managing to stay spoiler free for Skyfall, though the immense quality of the trailer has increased my desire for spoilers ten-fold!

Be strong!

The teaser trailer's great. Some splendid shots (most notably the forst one, with Bond overlooking London, and the one with Bond and M in a scotish landscape). Great pace. Nice cinematography. Overall a very "agent provocateur" teaser!...

Although, to be honest, QoS teaser trailer will always remain top on my favorite list. It was sheer perfection.

Bond's haggard zombified look in the Interrogation/Debriefing/Psych Session/whatever that is makes me hope that they are going to have some reference to the opening of TMWTGG novel opening.

It works well as a teaser although I would have liked to have heard the Bond theme in a more pronounced fashion at the end. I hope these scenes were just digitally graded for the trailer. I really liked the look of the cinematography. Is it October yet? :D

I had the same reaction. I'm not sure I like it decoupled it from the YOLT ending, if that's the case, but I am in favor of using Fleming material than not.

The teaser trailer looks flat-out terrific. I agree SecretAgentFan that Skyfall does look different than any other Bond film. I was even thinking that while watching the teaser. The cinematography, particularly in China (and London too), was fantastic. I also love the repeated two-note motif through most of the teaser, especially when played in sync with Bond firing his gun. Very nice touch. Overall, we saw a lot of cool stuff without learning much about the plot (which was good for us spoiler-free folks). Anyway, consider my appetite well-whetted for Skyfall. November 9 can't come soon enough. Bond most certainly IS back.

I muted the audio until the very end, couldn't here the Bond theme. Love the look the of the movie. Splendid and sharp as ever, lets hope they get serious movie done right. I miss the great dialogue.

Also hope they have another small teaser.

One other thing has me wondering. Could the man across the table from Bond in the beginning of the teaser be the long awaited, but never before seen (in the series), Sir James Molony? I am intrigued at the possibility.

Hadn't thought of that. It would be a nice touch.

Yeah, but there was mention of a Dr.somethingotherthanMoloney, so, unfortunately, I think we won´t be seeing the Doc.

I wondered that, too. It'd be nice to finally see him in the films.

I've just watched it. IT IS FANTASTIC!!!!! The Bond theme, or rather hint of it, is simply magnificent. THIS IS GOING TO BE THE BIG ONE.
