I have a hi-rez image of this so-called "poster" and it has some mistakes in the credits block, like "directed by Martin Campbell", "based on the novel by Ian Fleming", one time it says EON Productions, another - Production, and the Bond image is taken from the promo shot of Bond and Camille walking thru the desert. Btw Craig's hand looks ugly, like that of Gothmog from LOTR-3

LOL

I wish I could see this picture.

As fan art, I've seen a lot worse.

Nothing to lose your sleep about. Still, tell me where to upload it, if you do want to see it.

This poster looks awesome up close. His face is not dodgy at all.

[Simon]

His hand still looks a mite large, and the watch neatly tucked outside his shirt and jacket sleeve....

I am surprised they didn't roll his trouser leg up a little to get the sock manufacturer's name a mention.

And I don't want to hear Any reports from Omeeega that they didn't pay for this.

Thank you, as well! Great poster! I'm sure It's a wallpaper for many of you out there!

meh. That second poster doesn't seem like Bond at all... more like Bruce Willis in Die Hard or something...

I rather like the poster. The watch does look incredibly vulgar, though. But then they do, don't they?

So much for James Blond.

[RevolveR]

At least they removed the sunglasses. Thank god for that!

Now, put a walther in his hand dammit

Couldn't agree more. Oh come on Sony/EON, put back Bond with the Walther...please.

Same here. I'm not a big fan of this big rifle (is it a H&K MP5?) for a poster, it screams "action hero" rather than "Bond".

I'm not sure if somebody answered this already, but that gun is an HK UMP 9mm SMG. While it's larger than an MP5, it is by no means a "big rifle," It looks bigger because the one in the poster is equipped with a silencer. FYI, It's the same gun he uses to shoot White at the end of CR, if that isn't obvious to you.

My opinion is also that there is nothing wrong with Bond having this. Not saying anything about this style choice for the poster, a PPK or P99 or what have you would not stand out effectively here.

[bond 16.05.72]

Now I've seen it properly in high res it looks great, it's on my desk top.

It fits with Craig's era perfectly.

I'm sure the main poster will be something to moan about as well for you people who have already decided this is going to be a disaster.

Wait to you see the product first, god there's so much negativity from people, if you get DAD 2 come October 31st (Jammy I know) or Nov 07 then come and bitch about it then.

Don't purport to know what your gonna get cause nobody here know's that. A select group of people know what the finished product will be and they aren't on this site,
despite that some might make you think they know more than they will say with their prick teasing.

Oh the poster I like, if one is accepting of the photo way forward for poster advertising. And I am not an advocate of drawn art or photo art, just so long as it is done well.

It is the badly effected adding and subtracting of elements that upset as these are more indicative of untidyness than lack of design or in this case, what could otherwise be seen as effective simplicity.

[Eddie Burns]

Luv it!

I think some fans need to leave the 60's behind. Surely these can't be the same ppl that demanded change after DAD? *sigh*

What is un-Bondish about the poster? It screams action? Well, in case i'm not mistaken Bond is action! But I think some want Moore's softly softly approach to action, when I prefer Craig's hard as nails action. And, unlike the terrible LTK, I know Bond means business, and he means business with style. The only Bond that I can picture striking the same pose effectively is Connery...yes and that includes the gun, which in my opinion is already establishing itself as an iconic image. I applaud EON for trying new things and playing with imagery.

Its a great poster, i'd love to own it and have it on my wall. Timeless in fact.

Lets gradually leave the Golden period of the 60's and enter the 21st Century please. All this 'its not Bond' is just too tiresome. Tennis is no longer played with wooden rackets, doesn't make it any less the sport it is does it? Do you guys want a kitchen sink drama, or a 21st Century Bond movie?

p.s. - love the watch, suit, sunglasses. Brosnan/Dalton never looked as stylish. At least they're bringing the style, flair and swagger back, mixed with a little rough stuff.

BOND IS BACK

[bond 16.05.72]

I watched OP last night and despite the fact I don't hate it like I used to I will save that for MR or VTAK in Moore's era I couldn't get out of my head that I was beginning to really get irritated by Roger Moore. I know he's an ambassador and all and as a person he's a top bloke.

Although his interpretation of the character has done nothing but pour scorn and turn the character into a joke, I think I've blamed Brosnan too much for this in the past. Watching Rog talking to Octopussy with his Trousers hitched up around his stomach just hit a nerve.

Am I supposed to think this guy is cool, his dress sense is awful, I know they said they dressed him in the clothes of the time (big mistake) but Rog is so lacking the suave smooth panther look that Connery, Lazenby & Craig has displayed.

Many mourn Cubby not being around but he let Rog continue to a ridiculous point and should have learned to say no. At least his children had the good sense to put Pierce out to pasture at the right time.

My point and there is one, is when I see a poster like this I feel enormously greatful that we've come this far since that jokey era and Craig walking across a desert with big off gun looking mean has hell is the perfect antidote to watching an actor past it with his trousers hitched up trying to convince he's Ian Fleming's deadly spy.

I used to think I was quite a fan of Rog's Bond but I think I'm beginning to hate it sorry but this poster compounds it.

Once again I'll say it, Bond is back and by god he looks great.

[Agent 76]

The poster is amazing, IMO. Simple, but effective and cool, because that's exactly what Bond is.

[DamnCoffee]

I love it how nearly everyones feeling towards the poster has changed, since they've seen a higher quality version!

Yep. I simply loved the Poster now.

This is bound to happen, if you can't wait to see the real thing and make judgements based on other peoples comments and dodgy or bootlegged captions.

[Simon]

(Having looked at a Hi Res version of the trailer, perhaps he is wearing a watch afterall. So perhaps I will maintain a lower profile forthwith.)

[michallo_w]

Someone should make a 1680x1050 wallpaper

[JackWade]

I wonder if this will become a US one-sheet.

But anywho, I don't see why everyone has their panties in a bunch over this poster. I suppose it's the same crowd that have doomed the film because of the trailer, but regardless. The poster is cool - very much as metaphorical as the first with the muted tones.

Bond looks pissed off. It's good, relevant marketing. The poster shows Bond is mad, he's alone (the desert is quite a good symbol for that), and that he's out to take names. I don't think a lavish, Moore-era poster would be suitable.

I like it.

Yes, I think it's rather good. The explosion is a bit crude but it's a nice idea and the colours work well.

True; I think the best-ever Bond poster was Goldfinger; and that's entirely photographic. And it's from the 60s!
