Yes, that one rocks.

[Logie]

Whoa. Goosebumps!

 

The bit where Oberhauser's standing behind the bullet proof glass - am I seeing things or does he have a massive great scar running down the right side of his face?

[stromberg]

Yowser, yowser, yowser

[FredJB007]

All I can say is "Holy S#@t!!!!"
AWESOME!!!!!

[Yellow Pinky]

Oh my goodness!  That was excellent!

[JohnnyWalker]

Yep. That was, pretty amazing.

 

James Bond has got to be the only action hero who can say "Well it's all a matter of perspective".

YEAH !! AT LAST !!

SOMETHING TRULY EXCITING !!

(but could be better with a little bit of Monica Bellucci)

Think I prefer the final TV Spot more as it has the scenes with M, Q and Moneypenny..a nice contrast to all the action we seen in all the trailers thus far.. But this is still very nice indeed!!   I'm also a bit worried that the building collapse is looking a bit TOO CGI, like the iceberg surfing in DAD..but hey, I probably won't even care once I see it in context with the rest of the sequence..

[Harmsway]

Looking groovy.

[SecretAgentFan]

Release the film now.

[Matt_13]

I'm ready.

[rubixcub]

Some observations:

- while it's probably in Morocco as well, the scene of Bond walking through the arches has him in a different suit than he's wearing in his exchange with Waltz

- you can just barely see Lea Seydoux's shoulder on the right side of the screen in that exchange, so it's probably immediately after the scene of them being led in

- the pickup truck hitting the black sedan: I doubt that Bond is in either vehicle; London scene?  Maybe someone from MI6 is in the black sedan?  Probably M?

- I think Bond is wearing the same outfit in the boat that he's wearing in the scene where he's firing at Waltz (side note: the shots in the glass, from a distance, almost look like the SPECTRE octopus)

 

Advise if spoiler tags should be added.

Brilliant

That's a very snazzy car driving across the desert towards the volcano. Rolls or Bentley.

Personally, I don't think it LOOKS like CGI so much as I know it HAS to be CGI.  I think that knowledge begins to color our perception of these kinds of things.

 

EDIT: And looks NOTHING like the iceberg surfing in DAD to my eyes!  Thank God!    That said, I was instantly reminded of the fall through the glass roof in the QOS PTS chase, which was another stunt that clearly required CGI to pull off.

Good point Yellow Pinkie... Just like the jumbo jet / airport runway sequence had to have the CGI of the jet flying over the police cars and tanker truck in Casino Royale.. No way they would have been able to do that for real, and I barely even registered it. I have faith in this collapsing building sequence.

[thecasinoroyale]

Ohh YES to that!!

Check out the bullet impact in the glass when he shoots towards Oberhauser - it looks like the 'SPECTRE' logo!


Oh this is amazing - that Crater Base looks like something Ken Adams has created! A true Bond villain lair!

Looks like digitally composited live-action and model footage to me.

[The Dove]

That last shot of Bond hanging outside the chopper and kicking (presumably) the bad guy... it kind of brought back memories of Roger climbing outside and back into Blofeld's radio controlled chopper in FYEO..   Except in this case, the ride for Daniel Craig is MUCH more topsy-turvey..

[The Shark]

Is it me or does the colour grading look seriously improved?

[univex]

Who would have thought back in 2002 that we´de have a Bond film like SPECTRE coming out in 2015?

It´s all rather nice, isn´t it? A crater base, an alpine setting, A list actors, A list crew, it´s all very very nice, to say the least.

And to the ones who are saying that shot of the colapsing bulding looks very CGIish. It really doesn´t, it´s very well made, IMO. And those who know me know that I´m deeply critical on CGI use, still having DUD related PTSD. This one just looks epic. Well done Mendes and co. Well done Mr. Corbould. Well done Babs and McG. Well done Mr. Craig. And thank you.

 

Now...release the damn movie...now!!!

Is it me or does the colour grading look seriously improved?

Yes, it does, doesn´t it? The Mexico scenes and the snow look way better, I believe.

[Matt_13]

It's noticeably better, yes.

 

And I agree that the shot of the collapsing building is an extraordinary achievement on Chris Corbould's end. Very nicely done.

 

The whole thing has me pumped way the hell up. Like I mentioned in another thread, though, this movie looks to really be going for broke. I hope the run time permits the story to flow without feeling rushed or truncated. I'm also really curious what else is going on in Morocco.

[Harmsway]

It looks much better. Must have been tweaked after the editing was locked in.

Some observations:
- while it's probably in Morocco as well, the scene of Bond walking through the arches has him in a different suit than he's wearing in his exchange with Waltz

It's the same suit that he wears in the promo pic of Bond/Swann by the train tracks in the desert. Perhaps it's an abandoned train station?

[The Dove]

Excellent!! It's all coming together!   By the way, here is something fun to do, if you have access to your Bond soundtracks. Put the trailer on mute (stay with me here) and then play whatever Bond cue you choose over it while the trailer plays. I chose the Goldfinger instrumental from the GF soundtrack and it seemed to work great for me..

[HoneyDiamond]

I'm so excited for this movie!  Also excited that everyone seems to be loving what they see so far.  This could be a classic!    

[thecasinoroyale]

Slightly worried Lucia is going to be the next Severine. :(

Not seen very much of her at all except the Rome sequences...unless for once that's where she is based and never leaves.

Hope she doesn't bite it....!

[stamper]

Anyone noticed? The logos are color timed too.

The shooting in the glass looks like an hommage to Man from UNCLE

The film look effin' Bondish and EPIC

[DanMan]

There's frickin' laser beams!!!!!

Not certain about that. Looks a bit like a Citroen 11CV to me, which would be a perfect fit for Morocco:

 

The explosions after the "matter of perspective" line and Craig jumping down the collapsing Mexican building don't seem to fit into the Mexican scenery, as they're very dark. Looks more like the setting in which Craig shoots at Waltz, which I guess is in the destroyed MI6 building.

 

Someone mentioned a that there could be a scar in Waltz' face in that one scene (0:32). Seen it in higher resolution, and it looks a lot like that (but it really is barely a glimpse and very much out of focus, so I'm not 100% certain on that).

 

 

Edit: has to be the old MI6 building. I can read "Interrogation Room A" on the wall on the right in that "scar" scene.

[The Dove]

That thing almost looks like Kerim Bey's Rolls Royce from FRWL...
