I'm looking forward to it significantly less than the others mentioned above, but I wouldn't mind seeing it simply because it looks like a good, simple action film in the style of the Matrix films and it looks as though it would have to be a better film than the two sequels that we got for the Matrix.

That's exactly why I am not seeing. Everything the Matrix did has been played out. I am tired of "Hollow wood" recycling the same crap in different packages.

I am, generally, tired of that trend as well. I just hold the two sequels to the Matrix in such low regard (they're two of the worst films of the decade, IMO) that I'm hoping that this can be a stylistic "sequel" or follow-up of sorts that the two actual sequels couldn't even come close to achieving.

what>?? common! it wouldn't be summer if there wasn't a Matrix style rip-off action film!

[DamnCoffee]

Ok I'm getting tired of this. I think I speak for everyone when I say release the damn trailer! lol

[Qwerty]

There's really no need to get bent out of shape in the wait for this. It's only a matter of days now.

[DaveBond21]

That's correct no one gives a damn about Will Smith and Hancock, the trailer will be here today depending on where you live. By July, as previously said, no one will care about the new 007 trailer because everyone will be on holiday.

Stamper, it's only France that goes on holiday for 3 months every July 1st!!!



Also - it's winter here, not summer.

The vast majority of the filmgoing public doesn't need a marketing blitz six months ahead of time unless a film merits a special selling effort. Teaser trailers act mainly as a heads-up so that when the main marketing effort gears up a month or so before release, hopefully a light bulb goes on in some people's heads--"Oh yeah, I remember thinking I'd like to see that when it comes out. Guess I should make plans to see it." The films that get a lot of buildup are usually (1) special or unusual films that might otherwise get lost in the shuffle, or (2) duds that the studios hope will pick up some big coin opening weekend before everyone figures out they suck.

I trust the Eon/Sony marketing team. In retrospect, I realize just how smart the CR campaign was. At the time, I was frustrated that they weren't pushing DC more in the trailers, ads, etc. But I now recognize that with all the nonsense about "Blond Bond," "CraigNotBond," etc., there was plenty of awareness that there was a new guy in town. Instead, the trailers focused on communicating the fact that this was a different kind of Bond film, and they did it brilliantly.

I'm not worried. These folks know what they're about.

I am not worried either. The timing of the trailer (early July) is fine by me. Just a little impatient to see it, that is all. I think QoS is going to be a cracker of a movie, and a new Bond movie gets its traditional summer release date, here in Australia. After all, late November is summer here.

Ah, yes, how is that Australian winter? I've always wondered, you know; is it similar to the ones up north?

No, it's pretty good actually. About 19 degrees C at the moment. It never snows except on the mountains, and we get some really nice sunny winter days. All still strange to me, since I am from England.

I wonder when the trailer does come will it have as many pages as the 2 "when will the teaser trailer come" threads

Probably not, but then we'll have the "When will the theatrical trailer come out?" thread.

Mercy.

There'll be plenty of discussion decomposing the trailer frame by frame - discussing whether it's chronological, who's the shady character you can barely see in the background, where's this building meant to be etc. etc.

...and don't forget the inevitable "They've ruined this movie!" thread(s)

[Quantumofsolace007]

I'm so glad to be a member on commanderbond.net i mean that with all honesty and sincerity.


I'm looking foward to seeing the trailer and saying wow.


plus for those who feel a trailer might ruin it stay a quantum virgin don't watch it.

I think I'd like to live there someday, then.

That's correct, france will be OFF from july 1 to october 1, it will leave only about a month to promote QOS correctly (must be why we get trailers a day or two early some of the time)

Sounds just like a typical Canadian winter.

Indeed - surely the only way anyone in France gets to see the trailer (before three months of red wine induced drunkeness commences) is if its leaked prior to June 30th.

Probably by a French TV channel...

It's actually amazing that there are any French Bond fans at all. To think, they missed the pre-title sequence of THUNDERBALL with all that Frenchness in it just because they were still unpacking their beach-stained pantaloons...

To think this is my 3rd year of french and I don't remember what pantaloons are...Shows you how bad my High school french teacher is.

This may be old news now but.....Hancock premiered in London tonight! Not sure that the QoS trailer was premiered with it but if it did we may get the trailer soon. Having said that I suspect that it has already premiered in the USA and we didn't get anything from after that!

Whether or not they showed the trailer at the premiere, it is most likely that Sony sent out the QoS trailer with the print, "in the can". So it is sitting there in the projection booth! All we need now is some enterprising young man with a camcorder...

Hancock hasn't actually premiered in the US yet, they're probably going to do it closer to the July 2 release date for the maximum publicity (and boy, it sounds like its really gonna need it)

So we could get a very dodgy, grainy, wobbly trailer online any day now!

They all flock to the same Southern France seaside town that they go to every year, and eat cheese, baguettes, drink red wine and ride bikes with onions round their necks.

Well it always amuses me when I see a post that says "Should Bond movies be released in summer again?" and I always reply that they are always summer movies here in Australia. Casino Royale and Happy Feet were the big hits of Summer 2006-7.
