A question for those who have seen the teaser:

During the interrogation scene, is Bond bearded or clean-shaven? Might give an indication of where in the film this scene takes place.

(I've read the previous posts and didn't see this question posed. Forgive me if it's already been addressed and I overlooked the answer.)

Thanks.

[Vauxhall]

It doesn't sound to me like an interrogation. More like a psychological evaluation.

Agreed. In answer to the earlier question, I'm 90% sure Bond will be bearded or with stubble.

[Vauxhall]

Is the teaser trailer releasing on the 25th of May, or is it the actual trailer?

The teaser trailer. Still a bit early for the major theatrical trailer.

[thecasinoroyale]

I reckon the full trailer will be around...August time? Judging by current movies and trailers, say 'TDKR', the full trailer is out just over 2 months before the release.

Of course every studio is different, but I reckon August, the peak summer movie month and 2 months before the release.



I think....don't quote me!

Just quoted you. Now you'd best deliver.

But I wouldn't be surprised if we had one in July, attached to the film about that embittered orphan what dresses like a bat.

[thecasinoroyale]

Drat. I better call Babs and Mike and have a word then!


I think, as 'TDKR' is on copies of 'The Avengers' for mass distribution, having 'Skyfall' on copies of 'TDKR' would reach so many, it would be a good one to have. I suppose 2 months later from the teaser isn't too bad for a full one.

I'm not sure what comes out in August/ september. Anything worth attaching the trailer to? Anything that will reach a large audience that is? Bourne perhaps?

Sony Pictures Total Recall with Colin Farrell will have it. Same with Bourne as it too is a spy/espionage thriller film. Most likely Dark Knight Rises too. But I guarantee it will have the theatrical trailer attached to Total Recall.

[Ace Roberts]

I saw The Avengers with no TDKR or Amazing Spiderman trailer. This -the trailer is attached thing is not a guarantee.

[MattofSteel]

At this point, I'm done trying to predict what they'll do. Could release it online a few days before, a la TDKR, but then again the whole point of attaching it to MIB3 is to boost MIB3's opening by people who specifically want to see the trailer (which is super redundant, anyone who's hardcore enough to know it's attached will have already seen it online). So by that last logic, it would make sense to actually release it online after the MIB3 opening - but then they'd have to suffer the inevitable bootlegs.

There's no one consistent formula anymore.

[JCRendle]

If that's the case, they can't have much faith in MIB3 if they think people will go just for the trailer.

If it was for something like TDKR prologue, which people definitely would go to the cinema just to see regardless of film, I'd see more sense in it. Even that was only attached to show what they could do with IMAX, as the film attached to was M:I GP another high profile release.

[MattofSteel]

It's not that they don't have faith. It's just that every little bit helps, and if they have a piece of high-demand content content like the Skyfall teaser attached, why not leverage it? I probably wouldn't have otherwise seen MIB3, but you can bet I'll be there opening weekend now. Congratulations, Sony.

But what if they’ve already show it on-line sometime between 21^st and 25^th, which they will do? Are you still going to go see MIB3?

[Matt_13]

I'm guessing a TV program will be the first to air it. Usually the case.

Depends what I'm doing that week. It's not a movie I otherwise would have rushed out to see - but maybe.

Now, if you're Sony and releasing the teaser early hinges early on my answer as a fan sample - then yes, I am absolutely going to see MIB3 regardless of what you do, and the Skyfall trailer should be released tomorrow.

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.

It's fan art gents.

Well, he made the fan art soon after the announcement and there were no images from it yet. And yes, he did say it was fan art made by him. I met the guy through MI6.

[Germanlady]

He works for Sony

#SKYFALL teaser at work meeting! YES!

[007jamesbond]

I am guessing that it will coming soon? someone should ask him.........

[Matt_13]

Another Twitter user related that he saw it today at an MIB3 screening. Stated there wasn't the slightest hint of the Bond theme. We'll see for ourselves soon enough.

[MattofSteel]

Yeah, he seems sure about it. That's strange, and unfortunate. And correct me if I'm wrong - the first 007 trailer in history without the Bond theme?

Of course, if we scream loud enough, they'll overload the theatrical trailer with it. So get screaming!

[DamnCoffee]

Hmmm. Interesting. Maybe the Bond theme will be saved for the title card? Like the Quantum one? Gah, I dunno. No Bond teaser hasn't not had the Bond theme. Why stop for the 50th Anniversary movie?

[univex]

Because it´s so Bondian you don´t even need the music (?)

[The Dove]

As long as the "Skyfall" teaser DOESN'T feature disco-funk like this goofy NSNA trailer, I'll be happy!! LOL

[killkenny kid]

Wow, that was dreadful.

[MattofSteel]

Well, they presumably have to pay a massive licensing fee every time they use the Bond theme in something. It goes to Monty Norman. So one less trailer using it is one less piece of marketing collateral that needs to pay that fee. Sony's certainly in a penny-pinching mode (given the record losses they posted today), so if their thinking is, "Save that money on the trailers and spend it on the film" (or specifically, licensing the Bond theme for the film), then I don't really mind.

Nonsense, Eon are not concerned with paying anyone for the use of the James Bond theme. They commissioned it and paid for it 50 years ago. It belongs to them to do with as they wish.

[MattofSteel]

Does it? Hence the presumably, I was just assuming the licensing scenario was the reality. In that case, [INSERT ANGRY ONLINE FAN REACTION TO [i]BOND THEME[/i]-LESS TEASER TRAILER].
