Well saw trailer today (great having contacts) and was impressed, sort of what i expected though, Craig is craig and looks great as per CR and QoS. Lot darker tone which i liked and seeing the flag drapped coffins gave a nice military feel to it which is always good.

Thanks for this Smudge. Good of you to share the information with us all even though you didn't need to. :)

That has loads of Bond theme in it. The shot note beats in the first half are Bond theme ('twangy guitar' remixed). The baseline for the fast part is the Bond baseline verbatim. And then the finale, as you pointed out.

Yep. I the first 30 seconds are the beginning of either David Arnold's "Unauthorized Access" or "CCTV" from CASINO ROYALE. From then on it's guitar power chords and strings marking out the 3 note chromatic vamp of the Bond theme, in D minor (to match the cue from CR). The drum-heavy, action part starting at around 1:00 is a Pfeifer Broz Bond theme for one of the CR trailers/TV spots. I believe it's in 7/4.

Yep. I'm just wondering if the new trailer contains some new, original mix like that that's been mistaken by the people who've heard when it is, in fact, a version of the Bond chords or theme.

Very jealous that the trailer has been seen by some! Can't wait to see it myself. I will most likely see Men In Black 3 and will be looking forward to the Skyfall trailer!

Not the end of world though is it.


Perhaps not, but do we really need multiple threads that tell us the same thing?

Indeed. And I thought 'thecasinoroyale's' way of putting it was about the politest possible.

There was mention in the other trailer thread of someone describing the music as sounding like "the Bond theme remixed by Daft Punk."

Damn. I cannot believe it hasn't leaked. I've been scouring the internet non-stop since word of a teaser first hit. Maybe I should just give up and wait until late May.

I doubt if we'll have to wait all the way till the end of May to see it online. Considering how many people have already seen it and described it in detail, it's not as if there are any big secrets to be revealed.

Daft Punk...? Hmmm... I can't decide if that's a good thing or not...?

In my view, Bond-esq chords and hints are different than the full James Bond Theme. The full theme is rather overplayed, and really it does not NEED to be shoehorned into the trailer-of-a-trailer.

The Bond theme will be there in some form. It's a trailer for a James Bond movie. I know trailers for Harry Potter and such didn't include a dramatic rendition of the main theme, but with Bond there's always been the Bond theme playing in the trailers in some form. I don't see why it would change now, especially with an event like the 50th Anniversary.

The Bond theme will definitely be in the trailer in some form. If it isn't, I would question the decisions of everyone involved to pass on using one of the most recognizable themes in the world. Daft Punk would be be a long shot. Their work on Tron: Legacy was great but their sound might be a bit to futuristic for Bond or at least Skyfall. When I think of a scene with flag draped coffins, I'm not hearing Daft Punk playing in the background. Whoever it is, I just hope it isn't a repeat of someone doing a cover of a cover. ;)

I've been thinking maybe Bond escapes the interrogation and has a shoot out with Mallory. That is possible right?

This shootout is probably when Silva escapes from the Trinity Square and Bond goes after him...

Not sure if this has been brought in any other thread but is there any possibility this shot is from a flashback? Fiennes seems to have a bit more hair here than in this pic...

I'm naturally suspicious, but this one doesn't seem to work for me. If this individual had been sworn to secrecy for months, it doesn't seem to be logical for them to break their agreement and reveal their involvement now.

I've pointed that out numerous times, Most people don't notice. Wasn't it mentioned in some report that there were scenes being filmed that take place in the 1970's?

Well, he definitely wasn't using a handgun like that in the 1970s.

Glock as been around since the 1970''s so it is possible he may be using a prototype or early development of the Glock pistol, but I believe that's highly doubtful.

Anyone else wondering if this might have to do with the cold war or am I just behind everyone else?

I'm pretty certain I read that somewhere, I'll have to dig that up.


Good luck.

If its an interrogation and Bond is being framed, that could be why M goes to Bond's flat, right?
